Part 1: Joseph Prince is only interested to preach to the wealthy and the high and mighty VVIPS but not the poor – he isn’t telling the truth that he is following the preaching example of Jesus, who preaches to the poor
In the sermon on 24 Aug 2025, Joseph Prince said:

“I can tell you right now about salvations of VVIPs
that I’m not at liberty to reveal. Amen.”
Joseph Prince is only interested to preach
and rub shoulders with the rich VVIPs,
but he ain’t got time to preach to the poor.
Here is another concrete example
why Joseph Prince only makes time to meet with VVIPs
– the Ex Vice-President of the United States, Mike Pence,
– but he has no time to preach the gospel to the poor.

In the sermon on 6 July 2025, Joseph Prince said:

“There’s no death in heaven.
Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.
So, you all know what you are praying for
when all prayed the Lord’s prayer.
Our Father in heaven, and you all prayed this prayer,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
So, think about heaven.
Is there any sickness or hospitals in heaven?
No.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
And you are praying for yourself, your earth.
If others don’t want to pray, let them don’t pray, okay.
But you pray.
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
As it is, perfect duplication. Amen.
Though there are people who argue,
well, does God want to prosper you?
Or prosperity is all selfish and all that.
Usually, people who have 2, 3 cars,
and living on a landed property,
these are the ones who complain against people
who are prospering.
What did I say?
Said already, anyway.
So, but in heaven, do you think there’s prosperity?
Sometimes, we have to help God, you know.
We, we hear songs of the past that says, streets of (gold),
streets that are paved with gold.
You know what is paved or not?
That means underneath is tar, alright, asphalt,
but on top is paved with gold.
You think God is cheap, Ah.
The Bible doesn’t say paved.
The Bible says, true and true, is gold. Amen.
You go 10 feet deep, it’s gold. Amen.
It says streets of gold.
Doesn’t say paved with gold.
So, when you pray thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven,
Ah, be careful, Ah, people will criticise you. Amen.
But as for me and my house,
we’ll pray what Jesus taught us to pray:
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Amen, Amen.”
Here is Joseph Prince’s warped understanding
of the Lord’s prayer and sick logic:
No sickness in heaven,
so, you can also pray for no sickness on earth.
Got so much gold in heaven,
so, can also pray for more gold on earth.
Hey Joe, are you serious or not?
I’m sure Lawrence Lim, your right-hand man,
is sure to use your warped doctrine and sick logic,
to argue:
“No marriage there in heaven, no marriage here on earth;
therefore, all Christians must remain celibate
as no one is allowed to marry
because in heaven, there is no marriage.
– by order of Joseph Prince.
No sex there in heaven, no sex here on earth;
therefore, from now on,
husbands and wives must stay in separate rooms;
and if they meet each other in the living room,
they can only hold hands,
but cannot have sex
because in heaven, there is no sex
– by order of Joseph Prince
No death there in heaven, no death here on earth;
so, every Christian must try their best not to die,
and for their families, relatives and friends,
who have passed away,
they must quickly pray to raise them from the dead
because in heaven, there is no death
– by order of Joseph Prince
No sea there in heaven, no sea here on earth;
so, every Christian must now
carry a changkol filled with soil
and filled every sea they come across on earth
because in heaven, there is no sea
– by order of Joseph Prince.
So, by Joseph Prince’s logic,
this means we must have no marriage, no sex, no sea,
and we must start raising everyone from the dead,
as there’s no marriage, no sex, no sea, no death in heaven.
Preposterous!
Idiotic logic!

“So, think about heaven.
Is there any sickness or hospitals in heaven?
No.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
Hey Joe, do you know what you are saying?
You are literally saying
that because in heaven there is no hospital,
there must not be any hospital on earth.
Hey Joe, so you are definitely going to ask
the Health Minister of Singapore to resign,
and retrench all doctors and nurses,
and force them to look for other jobs
because you are going to “demolish”
every hospital in Singapore.
Why?
Because there is no hospital in heaven,
and earth must follow heaven!
Joseph Prince,
you Malu (disgrace), right!
Bo Bin (humiliated), right!
Where is your logic?
I don’t know where you gonna hide your face.
You must repent, not only from your heresies
but also from the stupidity of your logic.
If Joseph Prince can’t even get his basic logic right,
he has no business delving into Bible exegesis and doctrines.
When Jesus asked us to pray,
“your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven,”
Jesus is definitely not saying
that the way things are in heaven in the perfect state,
is the way He wants earth to be now.
Jesus is not saying that what is in heaven,
we must pray for the same thing to be on earth.
When Jesus said
“it will be done on earth as it is in heaven,”
what He means is that
the same way God’s will is carried out in heaven,
perfectly without hindrance,
ought to be the same way it is carried out on earth.

Imagine, Joseph Prince,
the world’s guru on grace,
doesn’t even possess a sense of logic.
Joseph Prince is implying that just because a believer is rich,
he or she isn’t allowed to speak out against false teachings,
particularly his Prosperity Gospel teachings.
That just because one is rich,
he or she automatically forfeits his or her right
to teach against Prince’s Prosperity Gospel doctrine?
The truth is, whether one is rich or poor,
if a doctrine is false,
they must speak up.
Speaking up against the Prosperity Gospel doctrine
has nothing to do with whether one is rich or poor.
The nonsensical teaching is,
according to Joseph Prince,
just because one is rich,
he should just shut up and mind his own business,
even though he knows that the Prosperity Gospel doctrine
that Joseph Prince teaches is grossly false.
Again, Joseph Prince has slandered his critics,
particularly the rich people
with his baseless accusation
that they don’t like believers prospering.
Just because we are against
Joseph Prince’s Prosperity Gospel doctrine,
doesn’t mean we are also against the prosperity of believers.
We are not against the prosperity or wealth of believers
or unbelievers per se,
as long as their riches
aren’t obtained through questionable means.
But what we are against is Joseph Prince’s erroneous teaching
of the Prosperity Gospel
that every New Covenant believer
can be very rich as Abraham was.
But Joseph Prince is such an evil man
that he deliberately and falsely equates our stand
against his Prosperity Gospel doctrine
as the same as opposing the prosperity of every believer.
Hey Joe, by the way,
I am not the rich person that is described by you,
who have 2, 3 cars, and living on a landed property.
I have never driven a car, and by the way,
I don’t even have a driving license.
I have never stayed in a landed property,
but I have always stayed in HDB (Highly Dangerous Building, just kidding).
Next, the Lord’s Prayer:
Matthew 6:9-15 NLT
9 Pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,
may your name be kept holy.
10 May your Kingdom come soon.
May your will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today the food we need,
12 and forgive us our sins,
as we have forgiven those who sin against us.
13 And don’t let us yield to temptation,
but rescue us from the evil one.
14 “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you.
15 But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
It is disallowable for Joseph Prince
to use the Lord’s prayer in Matthew 6:10
as a model for his prayer,
Matthew 6:10 NLT
10 May your Kingdom come soon.
May your will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven,
This because
Joseph Prince fiercely teaches against the theology and practice
of Matthew 6:12, 14-15
in the same context and passage of Matthew 6:9-15:
Matthew 6:12, 14-15 NLT
12 and forgive us our sins,
as we have forgiven those who sin against us.
14 “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. 15 But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
Joseph Prince cannot accept the view
which is taught by Christ in Matthew 6:12
that our present and future sins,
which have not been forgiven
still need to be forgiven.
And in Matthew 6:15,
though Jesus teaches that we must forgive to be forgiven,
Joseph Prince went against Jesus
and said that that is under the Old Covenant
and, hence, it is no longer applicable to us.
Jesus clearly teaches that if we do not forgive others,
our present sins are still not forgiven.
But Joseph Prince contradicts Jesus again
and falsely teaches that all our present and future sins
have been completely forgiven
by the finished work of Christ, 2,000 years ago.
What Joseph Prince has horrendously done
is that he selectively picks and chooses
what he wants from the scriptures.
He cherry-picks passages that would fit,
or at least not contradict his Grace Theology in Matthew 6:10,
but he would do away with verses in the same passage
that contradict his theology in Matthew 6:12 & 14-15.
Picking one verse and rejecting another
in the same passage and context of Matthew 6:9-15
is nothing but showing utter irreverence
and doing violence to the scriptures.
What is worse is that Joseph Prince has no business
to even allude to Matthew 6:10,
which is part of the Sermon on the Mount,
as a model for his prayer.
This is because Joseph Prince has lambasted
the Sermon on the Mount as a sermon
that is without hope and redemption
for New Covenant believers.
In ‘Grace Revolution’, Joseph Prince wrote,
“The good news is that Jesus didn’t stop there.
He preached the Sermon on the Mount
and then He came down.
Spiritually speaking,
if the King had stayed on the mountain,
there would have been no redemption for us.”
In a sermon, Joseph Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“Now, if Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount
and He stayed up there on the Mount,
there’ll be no hope for us.”
Joseph Prince categorically states
that there is no redemption or salvation hope for us
in the message of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount.
If that is the case,
why did Joseph Prince use Matthew 6:10,
which is part of the Sermon on the Mount
that has no salvation hope for us,
as a model for his prayer?
This must have been the most prominent
of all his double-talks.
Imagine – castigating an entire Bible passage
such as the Sermon on the Mount that he disapproves
because it doesn’t fit his Grace Theology,
and then, Joseph Prince has the cheek
to use a portion in Matthew 6:10
of the same sermon text that he lambasted
to support his theology!
How on earth can millions of people still trust this guy
who double-talks his way to deceive people?
The only way to explain it
is that Joseph Prince is empowered by the devil
with so much influence and popularity
that he has the power
to blind the multitudes to his heresies.
Part 3: Joseph Prince’s revelations are not from God but Satan
In the sermon on 3 Aug 2025, Joseph Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“What we need in the church of Jesus Christ
is not Bible knowledge,
we need revelation from the Lord.
And revelation is based on the word of God.
Yes, it must be backed by the word of God.
But what we need is more light, more revelation.
And I am hungry for the light on that.
I’m hungry for revelations on that.
I’m asking God about that. Amen, Amen.
You know God wants is to hunger
for more and more,
more and more revelation.
That’s why it’s important that you attend a church
that preaches revelation knowledge
and not just religious knowledge.
But can I just tell you a lot of things
that God shows me by revelation.
How many want revelation?
Not just Bible knowledge.
You read the Bible, okay, I see that.
But it’s not a revelation.
I want you all to become revelation addicts.
You look for revelation in the word.”
Do you know why Joseph Prince preaches about the need
to have more revelation,
and not just knowing the word of God?
He knows that more and more of his teachings are and will be
exposed by his critics because he teaches against God’s word.
So, Joseph Prince is going to explain and spin
that he does not go against God’s word about a certain text,
but that his interpretation
is actually his revelation, which God revealed to him
about that text of the scriptures.
Joseph Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“What we need in the church of Jesus Christ
is not Bible knowledge,
we need revelation from the Lord.
And revelation is based on the word of God.
Yes, it must be back by the word of God.”
Joseph Prince said that any revelation from the Lord
must be based on the word of God.
The truth is, Joseph Prince’s so-called revelation,
isn’t based on the word of God at all.
For example, Joseph Prince’s teaching or revelation
that when we sin, we must not confess our sins,
but we must confess we are the righteousness of God in Christ
is nowhere found in the scriptures at all.
Nor was it taught by the Lord Jesus or the Apostle Paul,
or any of the Apostles, for that matter.
In fact, Joseph Prince’s teaching
that believers must not confess their sins
went against the word of God in 1 John 1:9.
In a teaching sermon, Derek Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“Base everything on the Scriptures.
First, general revelation, which is in the Scriptures,
then we can seek for personal revelation.
Now the Bible doesn’t tell me that I am to go
as a missionary to India.
If that is to be true, I have to get a personal revelation.
But I’m not entitled to expect personal revelation
if I’m not living in the general revelation,
which is true for all Christians.
You see, that’s laziness.
I would say this:
A person has no right to go to a prophet
for a word from God
if he’s not living in the revealed truth of Scripture.
If you live according to the general revelation,
then you can expect personal revelation
when you need it.
But if you ignore the general,
I think you’re almost insulting God to say,
“God, give me a special word.”
God says,
“Why don’t you read My Bible?”
I’ve written this:
A Christian who ignores his Bible
has no right to hear from God.
And many times, when he thinks he’s hearing from God,
he isn’t.”
Derek Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“Base everything on the Scriptures.
First, general revelation, which is in the Scriptures,
then we can seek for personal revelation.”
Derek Prince said that everything must be based
on the scriptures, or general revelation,
and this must definitely include personal revelation as well.
Since Joseph Prince speaks against the scriptures
regarding many of his grace doctrines,
how can his personal revelation be based on God’s word?
And how can his personal revelation be from God Himself?
Derek Prince said:

“A Christian who ignores his Bible

And many times, when he thinks he’s hearing from God,

Derek Prince said that one who ignores the scriptures
has no right to hear from God.
Joseph Prince has not only ignored many parts of the scriptures
but he “deleted” them from God’s word by not teaching them.
So, how can he claim to be hearing from God?
In a teaching session, Derek Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“Revelation is conditional upon obedience.
Would you like to say that with me?
Revelation is conditional upon obedience.
If you don’t obey,
God won’t show you anything more.
The devil may show you a great deal
but not God.”
Hey Joe,
You have always claimed
that you have received so much revelation from God.
Time and again,
you said God revealed or spoke to you
on this, that, and the other.
But you must remember what Derek Prince said
that revelation is conditional upon our obedience.
What is repulsive is that Joseph Prince even teaches
you shouldn’t obey Christ
as it is the devil who wants you to obey Christ.
In a sermon, Joseph Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“In other words, what is the ‘obedience of Christ’?
– By one man’s obedience, all of us were made righteous.
The devil wants you to take your mind off
that one man’s (Christ’s) obedience
and put your mind back on your obedience (to Christ)
or the lack of it.”
Since Joseph Prince teaches you shouldn’t obey Christ
as it is the devil who wants you to obey Christ,
and Derek Prince further said that
if you don’t obey God or Christ,
God will not show you anything more,
but the devil may show a great deal more,
that being so, many of Joseph Prince’s so-called revelation
can never be from God, but the devil himself.
