This intriguing theological work by John D. Fickett delves into the concept of “faith-formula theology,” a controversial movement within Christianity that emphasizes the power of positive confession and belief as a means to achieve material blessings and personal well-being. Published in the late 20th century, “Confess it, possess it” offers a critical examination of this doctrine, exploring its roots, biblical foundations, and potential pitfalls.
Fickett’s scholarly yet accessible approach provides valuable insights into the historical and cultural context surrounding this belief system, tracing its origins to the Word of Faith movement and its influential figures, such as Kenneth Hagin and Kenneth Copeland. By analyzing the scriptural interpretations and theological underpinnings of faith-formula theology, the author invites readers to engage in a thoughtful discourse on the intersection of faith, prosperity, and personal empowerment.
This work holds particular significance for collectors and readers interested in the evolution of modern Christian thought, as it sheds light on a belief system that has gained widespread popularity yet remains divisive within the broader Christian community. Fickett’s balanced critique offers a nuanced perspective, making this book a valuable addition to any collection focused on religious studies, theology, or the exploration of contemporary spiritual movements.
