The Benham Brothers presented at the Life Surge Christian wealth conference, promoting a controversial view that wealth is holy and supported by specific Biblical interpretations. They claimed that resources, derived from God's creation, should be cultivated by believers for financial gain. Their argument included references to Genesis and the Parable of the Talents to suggest that faithfulness and financial investment lead to wealth. Their humorous and casual approach seemed to mix entertainment with financial theology, which was critiqued for its simplicity and potential misrepresentation of Christian doctrine.
God made the Earth, and the Earth is full of resources which are ours to claim. They are called 'resources' because they 'reflect' on the 'source' (God).
In some English translations of Genesis, God calls on Adam to 'cultivate' the Earth, which means to acquire or develop. So we should buy real estate.
