Faith, Freedom, and Prosperity are the three Christian blessings for human flourishing.
 
FAITH
      

By faith, we mean the genuine Christian faith. It gives us eternal life and the worldview for blessed lives and societies. It teaches us that securing freedom and creating prosperity are our righteous callings. Without it, people will lose not only salvation but also freedom and prosperity. That is the object lesson of the nation of Israel in the Old Testament. We see it happening in our nations as they rise and fall today.
 
FREEDOM
     

Freedom is the first civil right because we are created in the image of God with a God-given right to follow our consciences and our sense of God's leading in all things. It demands that we defeat criminals, enemies, and tyrants who would enslave us.
 
PROSPERITY
      

Prosperity is the spirit of using the image of God and the gifts of God within us and the creation of God and opportunities of providence around us to create new value on earth to fund and resource everything that matters.     
 
PPI's Work and Worldview
      

This is the worldview, theology, and philosophy of People Prosper International. Our primary mission is to empower Christians to solve poverty and fund ministries in the developing world. So, we usually start our programs with Christian communities, and our first focus is to teach them the biblical principles of economic empowerment. They need to fund their lives to live in human dignity as people created in the image of God. And they need to fund their life-changing ministries. 
      

We always carry and preach the Gospel as we go to affirm the faith of the faithful and to lead others to faith in Christ.
     

And we teach the principles of freedom so Christians can be the salt and light of Christ to create free, just, and prosperous societies. 
 
 Christianity has been the most powerful force for human flourishing. It gives the worldview for morality and just law and order. It gives the pathway for economic prosperity. And it gives the pathway for spiritual truth and life. It is the foundation of Western Civilization. It is the foundation of true democratic principles that work. It is the foundation for the explosion of wealth that began in Europe in the 1600s, grew in the American experiment, and has been expanding worldwide. 
 
However, Faith, Freedom, and Prosperity are struggling under the dark clouds of the false religions of nature worship, globalism, Marxism, and sexual and gender perversion - all from the pit of hell. The results will be spiritual death, tyranny, and poverty for the masses, while an elite class of rulers prospers for a time.  
 
 During this week, while we Americans are celebrating the diminishing freedoms we have, I want to call all believers to these truths... 

With God's help, we can renew the Christian blessings of Faith, Freedom, and Prosperity.
