Wow dude it flat out does promise wealth and health, I guess I will find those scriptures also(I'm doing a lot of Bible study tonight) Adress the last scripture and I will try and find these now.
So how many of the 12 Apostles had health and wealth? And where does the gospel preached in the book of Acts promise it? If it was apart of the gospel, I'm sure the early church would have taught it.Paul write most of the epiztles,he have it? Let's see what he says...
24 Of the Jews five times received I forty
stripes save one.
25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;
26 In journeyings often,
in perils of waters,
in perils of robbers,
in perils by
mine own countrymen,
in perils by the heathen,
in perils in the city,
in perils in the wilderness,
in perils in the sea,
in perils among false brethren;
27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?
30 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.
31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.
32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:
33 And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands. 2 Cor 11:24-33 (KJV)
Does that sound like health and wealth?
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
2 Cor 12:10 (KJV)
Does that?
