Prosperity preachers and teachers worldwide teach their followers and disciples that the wealth of the sinners all over the world will be supernaturally transferred into the hands of the Christians or the global Church before the rapture takes place. They teach that the wealth in the hands of the sinners is needed by the Church of Jesus Christ to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost in direct fulfillment of the commandment of Jesus Christ to the Church to carry out the global evangelization of the nations of the world in this Church Age. The wealth transfer theology is taught by the prosperity gospel movement around the world as a divine event and a biblical prophecy that will be fulfilled before the rapture of the Church or the saints of God. The wealth transfer theology is based on the wrong interpretation of the prophecy of the Bible to the nation of Israel and never to the Church from the Book of Isaiah 60:5, 11 and 12 (NIV Translation): "Then you will look and be radiant, your heart will throb and swell with joy; the wealth on the seas will be brought to you, to you the riches of the nations will come" - Verse 5. "Your gates will always stand open, they will never be shut, day or night, so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations-- their kings led in triumphal procession" - Verse 11. "For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined" - Verse 12.
The end time wealth transfer in the Book of Isaiah is for the Jewish people in order to be able to return to their homeland and then prepare for the Messiah during the Millenium Era. Prophet Isaiah never mentioned the Church nor referred to the Church. The Church of Jesus Christ is already in the last days and it is not yet a super-rich Church in terms of money and materialism. The preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ was never designed according to the New Testament Scriptures to be preached or propagated to the lost on a huge financial budget from its onset. The preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ is also the primary responsibility of all Christians to carry out in their own unique and different worlds where they live (homes, neighborhoods, offices, workplaces and schools). Furthermore, it costs little or no money to open one's mouth and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the sinner beside you in this real life. There are no biblical evidences also in the early Church that showed that huge amounts of money were required, needed or raised by the apostles and the early Christians in order to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ all over the then Roman Empire. The internet technology and the fast means of transportation have made it easier to share the gospel of Jesus Christ across the world. Travelling to other nations to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ does not require any preacher to personally own a private jet and stay in a presidential suite of a 5-star hotels in order to reach the needy with this gospel message. Any Christian TV or radio ministry that preaches another gospel or another Jesus Christ does not deserve our money nor our financial support to promote their heresies that lack the grace of God.
The greatest wealth transfer in the world today in this Church Age is already taking place at the moment and the Church of Jesus Christ is not the main, the major or the principal beneficiary from this global wealth transfer that is happening in this global capitalist economic system. The final collapse of the communist Russia in the 1990 opened the global economy to the forces of global capitalism (banks and multinationals) who are today controlling the global wealth and economy and never the Church of Jesus Christ. In conclusion, the doctrine of wealth transfer in this Church Age is totally unbiblical. The Church in these last days will never control the global economy or the global wealth of the sinners before its rapture. Wealth transfer theology is a teaching that evolved from the manipulations and the wrong interpretations of the teachings or prophecies of the Bible to benefit the greed, the love of money and materialism in the life of those prosperity preachers and teachers worldwide who are pushing this greed gospel around.
