1 | Which verse talks about heaven on earth? | Rom 8:21 | MJH | 213281 | ||
Many times wonderful study begins with such questions. If the message sends you on a quest of study, then it did you well. I can't comment on the message because I did not hear it all, but one thing jumped out in your statement: "getting rid of all material things to have true faith." That statement alone is false, but in context there was hopefully more. Material things are not anti-Faith any more than poverty is pro-faith. What matters is where your heart is. Those who have an abundance who are tight fisted and un-charitable have a huge problem. Those who are impoverished and have a heart of envy or bitterness also have a huge problem. That being said, True faith is always loving which encompasses caring for others in need. You can not claim to love your neighbor as yourself, and knowingly leave him in hunger when you have the means to truly help him. MJH |

I didn't make myself very clear...sorry about that. It isn't about getting rid of material things so much as it is the priority we give them in our lives. | ||||||
