In this thought-provoking video, Fr Johnson Punchakonam from the Malankara Orthodox Church sheds light on the stark differences between the Prosperity Gospel and the True Gospel. The Prosperity Gospel, which emphasizes material wealth and earthly success, is often misleading and contradictory to the teachings of the Orthodox Church. In contrast, the True Gospel, as preached by the Church Fathers, emphasizes the importance of spiritual wealth, asceticism, martyrdom, and almsgiving. By examining the Bible and the teachings of the Orthodox Church, Fr Johnson Punchakonam reveals the biblical truth about seeking first the kingdom and prioritizing faith over riches. This video is a must-watch for those seeking to understand the Christian doctrine and reject false gospels.
