Steven Furtick and The Controversies

Many people wonder if Steven Furtick is a true Christian because of the lavish lifestyle he lives. They say that it is wrong for a Pastor to live a luxurious lifestyle like Furtick does because the Bible doesn’t support it.

His outfits have fueled many discussions and controversies. Furtick is often seen wearing designer clothes and shoes which cost thousands of dollars. An Instagram account called PreachersNSneakers always posts the outfits and shoes he wears along with their prices.

Many Christians are astounded by how expensive they are and Furtick has received a lot of backlash for it.

Furtick is also said to have made a lot of heretical statements in his sermons. Instead of believing that the trinity is composed of three distinct personalities in one, he believes in modalism which states that God the Father is manifested in all the three personalities.

Several other church leaders and Pastors have called out Elevation Church for its cult-like nature. Reformation 21’s Todd Pruitt and Matthew Paul Turner criticized Elevation Church by sharing a page from the Sunday school coloring book which Elevation Church gave to their kids. In the page there is a picture of the Elevation congregation looking at Furtick on the stage.

There is a text which reads,

We are united under the visionary; Elevation Church is built on the vision God gave Pastor Steven. We will protect our unity in supporting his vision‘.

Mathew said that no church should have coloring pages of its pastor and it is in fact idolatry. He said that this isn’t a good representation of Christianity and there is an evangelical brainwashing which is happening in the church.

Elevation Church has also been criticized for its practice of spontaneous church baptisms where members of the congregation are told to respond to Furtick when he calls them to be baptized. The church even staged the baptisms by planting Elevation volunteers in the crowd who were instructed to start walking to the stage when Furtick called them. Here’s the complete story.

“Every second you spend wishing God would take away a struggle is a forfeited opportunity to overcome.”

“Enjoy the journey, because the destination is a mirage.”

“You do the natural. Trust God for the super.”

“Because the voice you believe will determine the future you experience.”

“God gives the exact experiences he wants them to have in order to shape the specific destiny he designed for them.”

“The next time you lose your momentum in daily life as you’re chasing after God’s best for you, don’t give up and conclude that it’s over. The greater life hasn’t ended for you. It’s only out of sight under the waters of the ordinary. And God can resurface it, supernaturally, as many times as it takes. As many times as you’re willing.”

“And even when you can’t get seem to get your act together, your identity is secure and completely intact. Because in Christ, who you are matters infinitely more than anything you do or cannot do.”
