"Trust God and everything works out hunky dory."

Where did this theology come from? I was just reading that if God's with you nothing bad can happen. Apparently, even ants must obey us and flee, if we but trust God. And, when God's wrath comes, it certainly won't affect believers.

Not what I see happening in the Bible most of the time. (What? Do people think no Israelites died in those battles? And they were still in good shape when Rome took over Judea? Were the apostles treated like royalty?) Not my experience in life. Not what I see happening in other Christians' lives. So where does this come from? And why does just about everyone assume it?

maybe it depends on what you mean by hunky dory.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ/ Shall tribulation or anguish or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword? For Your sake we are being put to death all day long. We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose

From other people would be the answer.

Many just keep saying Jesus the Christ died for them and also the one about when they die they are going to Heaven when they are in Heaven already!!! One of the best is the ones who say they are saved now when Jesus the Christ even showed us by example that He is the first to be saved when He died and came back saved.

Man, if I could control ants, they would make the ultimate slaves!
They really know how to work, they never tire, they know how to honour their royalty (being me if I could enslave them), they work unsupervised, their autonomous, low maintenance and did I mention the quantity of ants there are? :eek:
