Answer to Silas Malafaia’s challenge to his critics: why is prosperity theology not accepted biblically?

The present work is a response to a challenge launched by sheepherder Silas Malafaia to critics of the Theology of Prosperity which he defends as biblical. Excerpts from the video “Pastor Silas Malafaia – Uma vida de prosperidade” were heard, studied and analyzed from biblical texts. But why is Prosperity Theology not accepted biblically? The objective of this study is to prove that Prosperity Theology has no biblical foundation, and is therefore unbiblical. It is intended, therefore, to present answers to the arguments sustained by him as evidence that the aforementioned theology has no biblical basis. To proceed with the analysis and response to these arguments, corresponding biblical texts selected from the YouVersion website were used, which contains different biblical versions, among others such as Online Bible, Greek Bible, Hebrew Bible, for comparison and analysis. In order to do so, an exploratory and descriptive qualitative research will be carried out in which the excerpts of the analyzed video will be observed in a deductive way in order to answer the problem question through a case study. Finally, each answer presented to each excerpt of the video highlighted in its respective frame highlighted in this study demonstrated the expected result regarding the question explored both based on biblical texts and the interpretations of other authors on the subject, being able to proceed to new analyzes since the subject is not exhausted in this study.
