What do they say with this false gospel of covetousness?
Certainly you jest?

There is no way you haven't heard these preachers entire messages being about money, wealth, things, gain, which is covetousness, which is idolatry. Methinks you're being facetious.

Where did i say i hate anyone? WHERE?
Are you saying that I am lost and going to Hell because I disagree with your belief?
A simple yes or no will do.
Where did I say anything about MY belief? I am talking about the Word and if you don't believe Him you can't spend eternity with Him. The words you speak against others, in this case WoF teachers is hatred. It tears down, it does not build up or edify.

No, I'm not. I know of ministers that say things like send if 50 dollars and get 50 blessings. Not talking about those shysters preacher. But prosperity is in the atonement.

Look at Abraham. Very wealthy man. I am not espousing that all will have great wealth, but we will have our needs met and even more from the abundant life. He became poor that we may be rich.

Isn't scripture? Will check...while you prepare your battle words. LOL Friends I hope will come from this, not enemies.

Wow. The quickest way to become braindead is to take offense.

I told you several times my friend...YOUR SALVATION IS ENTIRELY DEPENDENT ON YOU BELIEVING THE WORD!! THAT MEANS IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE THE WORD YOU ARE DOOMED! Did you hear me that time? I also said "Find a bible and start reading it and choose to believe ALL of it."

2Co 8:9  For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah. Although he was rich, for your sakes he became poor, so that you, through his poverty, might become rich. 

It is said that Jesus had great wealth. Much given from grateful people who were touched by Him. Plus His robe. They gambled to see which one would get it. It wasn't poor quality by any means.

I'm not a gambling man but if I were, I would bet most of it was given to the poor. Just like the Wof preachers do.

I believe the word.
I believe that your understanding is wrong.
Just because your understanding is wrong does not make you lost.
Many/most believers misunderstand much of the word.
Here is where you and I are different---
You JUDGE those who disagree with YOUR understanding as not believing and therefore lost.
I have never said or even suggested that those who disagree with me are lost.
ONLY GOD KNOWS!!!!

At least now everyone knows that you are a person who passes judgment on the souls of those who disagree with you.
I will pray that God forgives you.

As I said before....YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO BELIEVE WHAT YOU WANT! Twenty five thousand years from today, think back to this conversation....If you do not believe ALL of the Word, You believe none of it.

I did not pass judgment on you or anyone else. You did with your belief system. And your words. YOU are the master of your own destiny. YOU choose where you spend eternity. Nobody else.

Now I'm done talking on this subject. You choose to believe the Word or choose to disbelieve the Word. Its not my business what you choose. I'm out of this discussion. I'm tired of all the fighting and I am retired.

lots of prayer to our Intercessor is needed here, that's His job, to ask The Holy Father
to open the eyes and ears of the lost and to forgive them...
