With the so-called ‘prosperity gospel’ in mind, Costi Hinn draws the following points from the New Testament:

1. False teachers are disguised as good guys

2 Cor. 11:13–15 ‘For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will correspond to their actions.’

2. False teachers use deception to get rich

2 Peter 2:1–3 ‘But false prophets arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. These false teachers will infiltrate your midst with destructive heresies, even to the point of denying the Master who bought them. As a result, they will bring swift destruction on themselves. And many will follow their debauched lifestyles. Because of these false teachers, the way of truth will be slandered.And in their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. Their condemnation pronounced long ago is not sitting idly by; their destruction is not asleep.’

3. False teachers are in demand

2 Tim. 4:3–5 ‘For there will be a time when people will not tolerate sound teaching. Instead, following their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves, because they have an insatiable curiosity to hear new things.And they will turn away from hearing the truth, but on the other hand they will turn aside to myths.You, however, be self-controlled in all things, endure hardship, do an evangelist’s work, fulfill your ministry.’

4. False teachers will get what they deserve

Jude 12-13 ‘These men are dangerous reefs at your love feasts, feasting without reverence, feeding only themselves. They are waterless clouds, carried along by the winds; autumn trees without fruit—twice dead, uprooted; wild sea waves, spewing out the foam of their shame; wayward stars for whom the utter depths of eternal darkness have been reserved.’
