Episode 572 Show Notes
From the Show
Is there any Psalm other than Psalm 73 that more clearly refutes that heresy known as the Prosperity Gospel? Here is the faithful psalmist, Asaph, calling out to the Lord, and yet he doesn’t have wealth or riches, he actually feels stricken, smitten, and afflicted. And yet, as he goes into the temple of God, God gives him an insight: everything that the wicked have that they put hope in, one day it’s going to disintegrate.
