So much of prosperity gospel preaching sounds just like Jobs worthless friends.
I’ve noticed that parallel before also.
We see the same with the corrupt leadership of Israel during Christ’s earthly ministry. Some of them were described as covetous. Annas was the high priest who, according to Josephus, ran the moneychanging operation in the courtyard of the temple where the Lord twice removed them. Jesus called it a den of thieves. Annas and his four sons and one son-in-law all took turns being priest due to his bribery of the Roman authorities. There positions as priest, high priest, and members of the Sanhedrin were lucrative jobs.
Contextually, when Jesus drove out the money changers, He was defending the right of Gentiles to worship outside the temple which the corrupt leaders had turned into a stinking zoo.
Jesus spoke of those who devoured widow’s houses. Yet they were glad to take the widow’s last farthing into the treasury. That last farthing was sort of a last straw with God. Jesus said the temple had to come down.
Some of these TV preachers will con widow ladies on a fixed income to donate money using credit cards with the premise that God will bless them financially, but this of course leads to financial disaster.
