In this sermon, Justin Peters discusses the Word of Faith Movement, also known as the Health and Wealth Gospel or the Prosperity Gospel. He addresses some of the criticisms that are often leveled against those who warn about false teaching. He argues that it is not wrong to judge matters of doctrine, and that it is biblical to call out false teachers by name. He also addresses the criticism that "touch not my anointed," which is often used by Word of Faith teachers to silence their critics. He points out that this phrase is taken out of context and that it does not refer to speaking the truth about false teachers.

He also talks about the teachings of some of the most well-known Word of Faith teachers, such as Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn, and Joel Osteen. He argues that these teachers teach a false gospel that is based on greed and materialism and how their teachings are not supported by Scripture.

He concludes by calling on Christians to be discerning and to avoid the Word of Faith Movement. He warns that this movement is not biblical and that it can lead people astray.
