Name It, Claim It - Tame It

 The "Name it and claim it" theology is the hallmark of the prosperity Gospel, which is of course erroneous and heretical. However, the true spiritual prosperity God desires to give us (2 Corinthians 8:9) is the only real "Name it and claim it" promise in the Gospel. He wants us restored in relationship to Him- that's why Christ came, died and rose- to pay for our sins and give us the Way to be reconciled to God. (2 Corinthians 5:16-21) As Joel 2:32, Acts 2:21, Romans 10:13 all say, name it ("Anyone who calls upon the Name of The Lord will be saved.") and claim it- 1 John 2:4-6 (The Message). ("If someone claims, 'I know Him well!' but doesn't keep His commandments, he's obviously a liar. His life doesn't match his words. But the one who keeps God's word is the person in whom we see God's mature love. This is the only way to be sure we're in God. Anyone who claims to be intimate with God ought to live the same kind of life Jesus lived.")
