Pentecostalism being a global phenomenon has become an interesting subject in Global Christianity and academic discourses. Numerous scholars have researched and published articles on it from various perspectives. This article discusses African Pentecostalism by bringing fresh discussion on the existing literature on ‘prosperity gospel’. The article argues that Pentecostal preachers are not prosperity gospel preachers but rather preachers of a faith and hope gospel. The article conceptualises the faith and hope gospel from a Biblical perspective as well as the theological perspective of the adherents and practitioners of Pentecostal theology. Although the article acknowledges the extremist approach of some of the adherents and practitioners in their interpretation of scriptures and sometimes the abuses, the article argues that the dynamic and contextual nature of theology should be considered while the abuses are also objectively condemned. The article discusses debates on Pentecostal hermeneutics as well as the characteristics of the three perspectives of the faith and hope gospel by using the terms ‘name it, claim it, grab it’.

五旬节主义是一种全球现象，已成为全球基督教和学术讨论中一个有趣的话题。许多学者从不同的角度对其进行了研究并发表了文章。本文通过对现有关于“成功福音”的文献进行新的讨论来讨论非洲五旬节派。文章认为五旬节派的传道人不是成功福音的传道人，而是信仰和希望福音的传道人。这篇文章从圣经的角度以及五旬节神学的信徒和实践者的神学角度对信仰和希望福音进行了概念化。虽然文章承认一些信徒和实践者在解释经文时采取极端主义的做法，有时甚至滥用，文章认为，应考虑神学的动态和上下文性质，同时客观地谴责滥用行为。文章通过“命名、宣称、抓住”等术语，讨论了五旬节释经学的争论，以及信望福音三种观点的特点。
