Are we to tolarate Everything the world says?

Dear Anastasia:

Thank you for your article and I agree with what you say and I pray that God may bless your faith and keep you and your family under His protection.

I believe that God is God of prosperity. He does not want us to suffer in poverty but we ourselves bring destruction on us.

The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, and He adds no trouble to it (Proverbs 10:22)

Jesus Christ said in the Gospels that we must First seek God's Kingdom and the rest will be added to us. What Jesus meant was that we must not get worried to earn money and forget God. He is a God who blesses our food and water and blesses the works of our hands. If we put God first in everything then God blesses whatever we do.

Jesus was never poor on the contrary He was quite rich. If I use example of my personal life, I work for a huge company and we have lots of accountants. Without them we canot do anything. They always keep track of expenses and income.

Jesus had an accountant and his name was Judas Iscariot. I do not think that a poor person would need an accountant. Moreover, when we read the miracles of Jesus feeding more than 5,000 people, we see that the disciples had that kind of money in their possession to feed them. That is why Jesus asked them to go and buy food for them. (John 6:9-12)

One thing that is very important to note is that Jesus paid taxes according to rules and regulations of Roman Empire. How can a poor person can pay taxes? Poor men do not pay taxes.


I hope that you understand that Bible says that God is God of prosperity and Jesus was never poor.

God bless you and your family

I agree with you Anastasia and may God bless you for your preaching. You are so right in pointing out what people are doing to themselves and to others.

God bless

Whenever I put on Christian TV, I always find them asking for money and you have rightly pointed out that God cannot be manipulated. If they have a formula for our prosperity why don't they follow it also.

They can help any charity organization and God will bless them but they keep asking us to pay them with promises of properity. So strange?

God bless

Luke 6:20-26 Then he turned to
his disciples and said, ``What happiness there is for you who are poor, for the
Kingdom of God is yours!
What happiness there is for you who are now
hungry, for you are going to be satisfied! What happiness there is for you who
weep, for the time will come when you shall laugh with joy!


What happiness it is when others hate you and
exclude you and insult you and smear your name because you are mine!




When that happens, rejoice! Yes, leap for
joy! For you will have a great reward awaiting you in heaven. And you will be
in good company--the ancient prophets were treated that way too! ``But, oh, the sorrows that await the rich.
For they have their only happiness down here.


They are fat and prosperous now, but a time
of awful hunger is before them. Their careless laughter now means sorrow then.


And what sadness is ahead for those praised
by the crowds--for false prophets have always been praised.


Luke 14:13 Instead,
invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. Luke 18:22 22.
``There is still one thing you lack,'' Jesus said. ``Sell all you have
and give the money to the poor--it will become treasure for you in heaven--and
come, follow me.'' John 13:29 29. Some
thought that since Judas was their treasurer, Jesus was telling him to go and
pay for the food or to give some money to the poor. Acts 20;33-35 33. ``I have never been hungry for money or fine
clothing--


34. you know that these hands of mine worked to
pay my own way and even to supply the needs of those who were with me.


35. And I was a constant example to you in
helping the poor; for I remembered the words of the Lord Jesus, `It is more
blessed to give than to receive.'''1 Corinthian1 :17 For Christ didn't send me to baptize, but to
preach the Gospel; and even my preaching sounds poor, for I do not fill my
sermons with profound words and high sounding ideas, for fear of diluting the
mighty power there is in the simple message of the cross of Christ. I Corinthians
6:1010. Our hearts ache, but at the same
time we have the joy of the Lord. We are poor, but we give rich spiritual gifts
to others. We own nothing, and yet we enjoy everything. ( This is what I am talking about. ) 2 Corinthians 8:9 You know how full of love
and kindness our Lord Jesus was: though he was so very rich, yet to help you he
became so very poor, so that by being poor he could make you rich.(
Over here it says that Jesus became
poor for us ) 2 Corinthians 9:99.
It is as the Scriptures say: ``The godly man gives generously to the
poor. His good deeds will be an honor to him forever.'' (I love this one ) Galatians 2:10 The only thing they did suggest was that we
must always remember to help the poor, and I, too, was eager for that. (This is in the very heart of God)
1 Timothy 5:5 The church should care for
widows who are poor and alone in the world, if they are looking to God for his
help and spending much time in prayer; James 2 :5 Listen to me, dear brothers:
God has chosen poor people to be rich in faith, and the Kingdom of Heaven is
theirs, for that is the gift God has promised to all those who love him. Revelation
19:20 19. ``I am aware of all your good
deeds--your kindness to the poor, your gifts and service to them; also I know
your love and faith and patience, and I can see your constant improvement in
all these things.


20. ``Yet I have this against you: You are
permitting that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach my
servants that sex sin is not a serious matter; she urges them to practice
immorality and to eat meat that has been sacrificed to idols. (This is for all who advocate tolarence
and tells the Christians not to judge si. God has already pass judgment on all
kinds of sexual immorality. All I do is to tell them God loves them but they to
must repent to go to heaven) Many preachers will tell you Jesus was rich,
but I never found a good answer to that. About the money bag He only use it for
his needs not greed’s Judas was the one
in control of it. God is not two ways if He told the rich man to give away his
money yet Jesus Himself was rich that wouldn’t stick to well Just like Once save not always saveded.Anastasia.
