God-o-nomics

it's not because he dosn't want to hear it'S because he dosn't need to! he's already much much farther then falowing blindly the words of a book wrote with intention to mesmerize and dominate population!

God never wrote a bible! Humans did.

This is about the way to live.

Why this country is in the shape that it's in is because of end-game capitalism, material worship and willful carnal practices.

I see that Grace is not so popular with the active members here at glp.

The conservatives from all income levels give much more than the liberal, please feed me, democrats...capitalism is not the problem, selfishness is the problem...

The humble are in union with God. In your eyes, they're weak.

Your arrogance will be the fire that burns you.

I dont distinguish who is poor and who is rich..in money..
to me what is important is the goodness of the person..the persons personal values etc..

I think if one classifies according to someones wealth one is part of the prison one wants to be free from

The fact that you divide into liberal etc..and who is not is in my view a mistake..just being led by the nose without realizing it..in my opinion......

Christ had nothing..by todays standards he would be a bum and a drifter..a loser at best..wouldnt he * question mark*

The poor are that way for a reason...they make poor decisions...they buy things that keep them poor...they are selfish and that's why they are poor.

The truth hurts...all this time you thought you were holy and now you realize you are just selfish and a fool for intentionally being poor...

Yeah, but he gave by teaching...most poor people don't do that...if everyone was like Jesus, then nothing would get done, we'd all be homeless and starving...

Thats what she thinks, and it looks like she just bought herself undoing.

Gosh Brief..

If He returned probably most of those that stand on pedestals as His spokespeople would reject Him for that reason and many more

Truth is..He is Christ..

and to understand Him is to be part of Him

methinks

Christ has to be part of every aspect of our life..

was He part of the political status quo..did he take part of it or participate in it or indicate how one should

did he distinguish according to material values amongst his followers *question mark*

this world is like it is in my opinion because people pray on their knees and when they get up they lead their usual life away from Christ like values..

And that is what is wrong with the church today. The prosperity gospel is a doctrine of demons.

Luke 16

13 No servant can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. 14 And being money-lovers, all the Pharisees also heard all these things. And they derided Him.

If your needs are met good. Beyond that, you have to be careful

lies, lies, lies, delusions, wishful thinking, propaganda, and more lies piled on top

The wealthy people I know don't worship money...it falls into their lap because they are good managers of God's wealth...if you do right by his blessings he gives you more...if you are selfish you will not get his blessings and most likely end up poor.

Religious people, the most harmful, brain washed dumb fucks on Earth!

It doesn't work. God looks after the criminal. God comforts the Strong and batters the Weak, God sees all global endeavor as a insectile function to serve the Few and rewards heartless and soulless exploits with the world and all its riches..God has been doing this since the first unicellular organism split and fed off the primary source...god is Evil..look around and see...let's kill God and recreate it in our image..then the weak stand a chance.

I think the greatest poverty is ignorance

Ironically, it's those that choose ignorance that are impoverished...

Would they drive a beat Chevy vs. a new Lexus? How much time, money and resources do they give? Do they look down on the poor as you do? Not all poor are as you say. I know both rich and poor. Some of both are selfish and lazy, others work work their butts off.

I'll stand by my assertions. BTW Mammon means material wealth. As the saying goes: to whom much is given, much is expected. I know this one for a fact.

Do the right thing or the Right Thing will come and find you. All one has to do is to lose it and they will figure it out. Just ask some of those folks in Mississippi and Louisiana

if buying a Lexus for yourself is like the average person buying a happy meal then there is nothing wrong with that, but what the poor do is buy more car than they can afford and make payments because they are selfish...then they buy more house than they can afford and make payments, because they are selfish...and then they buy crap on credit cards that they can't afford and make payments because they are selfish...and then they cry because they are poor.

yeah! the willfully ignorant! :D

Encouraged by Who? That's the thing with being poor, uneducated lambs...god leads us astray with the means to do these things. I might not be able to afford a Lexus, but some god with an Ivy-league education says I can and he's right - there's my Lexus outside my Shack...but god is right: we should all be Economists and understand the intricacies of higher finance because god created libraries where we, the little lambs, should go to after spending many hours per day collecting garbage.

seriously Brief..its in my opinion irrelevant wether one i spoor or rich..its how one lives and loves..our relationship with Christ and God

to value someone according to wether they are rich or poor is tempting fate in my opinion..besides being very wrong

I think..

one can be rich and Godly

one can be rich and unGodly

one can be poor and Godly

one can be poor and unGoldly

to value a soul according to values of the material fallen world is simply ridiculous in my opinion and baffling

It would be easy to distinguish according to ones wealth and success..etc..but it isnt as easy as that..even amongst the religious there are wolves in sheeps clothing..because its what is in the heart and or soul..what is the Self that distinguishes..One can fool many people by an apparent piousness..but one can never fool God..

so unfortunately labels are simply in my opinion archaic and dont stick..it just isnt as easy as that..I believe..

You have to look deep inside to see of what nature is the essence..past all the masks and cheap words..easy prayers..etc..

I give. You don't get it

If Christ himself came onto the earth and issued the same challenge that he gave the rich young ruler I think I know where it will go. I see where this is going

Like 16

19 There was a certain rich man who was customarily clothed in purple and fine linen and making merry in luxury every day.

20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate, full of sores

21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. But even the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 And it happened that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. The rich one also died and was buried.

23 And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame.

25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now he is comforted and you are tormented.

26 And besides all this, there is a great chasm fixed between you and us; so that they desiring to pass from here to you cannot, nor can they pass over to us from there.

27 And he said, I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house,

28 for I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

29 Abraham said to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.

30 And he said, No, father Abraham, but if one should go to them from the dead, they would repent.

31 And he said to him, If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded, even though one rose from the dead.

May God richly bless you all especially the well to do

a damn shame that happens really.
youd think with the billions of dollars set to help them, we would have used that money to build a water purification plant, or desalinization plant, sent over a few tons of manure and seed, and that would not only create jobs, but food and water as well.
but i guess thats not in the budget?

I know you give, because you don't get it...

ya cuz you know, Jesus, that dude was rich as hell right?

or was He pritty much homeless, traveling around preaching God's Word?
you may want to rethink your position.
