THERE IS GOLD IN THE GOSPEL FOR YOU!A Special Message from the AuthorThe word 'gospel' means 'good news,' and the good news is that there is gold in the gospel for you! We have often thought of Jesus as the great healer, which he was. We have regarded him as an expert in prayer, which he was. But Jesus also understood, used and taught the mental and spiritual laws of prosperity in a way that no one before or since ever has!Not only did he know the great, eternal truths about universal abundance, but he dared to reveal how the average person of his time -- or any time -- could develop an inner consciousness of supply that would tap that universal abundance. Because the political situation of Jesus' era controlled the economic welfare of his followers, teaching prosperity was an especially bold and fearless thing for him to do. Yet Jesus seemed to know that a part of his mission in becoming Saviour of the world was to save mankind from its erroneous beliefs about financial limitation being a spiritual necessity. That he dared to teach the spiritual principles of true abundance was a part of his greatness.Not only did Jesus' prosperity teachings catch on during his lifetime, but history reveals that the early Christians and the early church followed through on his prosperity teachings to such an extent that early Christianity was a prosperous Christianity. It was only in later centuries, for political reasons, that the pagan idea arose that it was virtuous to be poor. This pagan idea was deliberately used to again enslave the masses during the Middle Ages. Unfortunately this false idea has been passed down from generation to generation so that it has continued with us until this day in some religious circles.If you have been enslaved to pagan poverty beliefs, the time has come to declare your freedom from them, and from all the financial havoc they have probably caused in your life. Indeed, the prosperous truth is that, as a child of God, it is a sin to be poor, and it is your spiritual birthright to prosper and succeed!
