“Does John 14:13-14 support prosperity gospel claims?” This question leads to a critical examination of how this scripture is interpreted by prosperity gospel preachers. Additionally, the discussion touches on how to read “Behold Your Mother” for deeper understanding, the intensity of Maximilian Kolbe’s prayer to Mary, and the nature of work in heaven according to Genesis 2:15.
