Subject: The Problem with WoF in a nutshell |
Bible Note: Part 2. Well, what about this prosperity that the Word of Faith brothers keep preaching about? 1.18:27 But He said, "The things that are impossible with people are possible with God." Luke 18:28 Peter said, "Behold, we have left our own homes and followed You." Luke 18:29 And He said to them, "Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, Luke 18:30 who will not receive many times as much at this time and in the age to come, eternal life." 2.Mark 10:29 Jesus said, "Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel's sake, 3 Mark 10:30 but that he will receive a hundred times as much now in the present age, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions; and in the age to come, eternal life. "Now in the present age." Perhaps someone would like to "Translate/Interpret what Jesus meant by that. Does present age mean now? Surely not, because that's what the Word of Faith brothers preach. Let me say this, God doesn't care if you are a billionaire as long as you own the money and the money doesn't own you. God will bless the socks off anyone who has the guts to believe what He has promised, and not waver in their faith. Of course if you are a true follower of the Master, Jesus Christ, then you will know that Malachi 3:10 was never meant for the gentile believers, and after Jesus fulfilled the old covenant, even the Jews aren't bound by it. Brothers and sisters, God doesn't want 10 percent of what you have, He wants everything. He expects us to be willing to give up everything we have for His sake, the same as He gave up His most precious Son for us. Our brothers from the Word of Faith Churches have discovered a truth about God and they keep telling people about it, but loys of them say, "God forbid, that I might presume to expect God to actually be obedient to the promises He made." Some of you say that it's sacrilegious to say to God, "Well, I did what You told me to do, so now I believe You will do what You promised," but isn't that what you do when you get saved? You are in essence saying to God, "I have repented and surrendered myself to You, now I believe You will keep me from eternal damnation." "Hey, God I intend to hold You to Your word." Oh, my God Hank, can you believe he is saying such things?" Continued: |
