I don't think that's so much the case as misinterpretation. Outside of that, I agree. This is actually really something that I have been thinking about quite a lot lately and it really drives me up the wall. I like to call it "false optimism". The idea that, as long as we believe in God, then we get everything we want, and life is one big happy peach! It's BS, for lack of a better term. A big favorite term at my old church that I completely disagree with is "your will be done the same on earth as it is in heaven." Not only is that a misinterpretation of scripture it is a complete and blatant misquote that has absolutely no bearing in scripture. "Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven", does not mean God will make us live on earth as life in heaven is. It simply means God's will will come to pass in both earth and heaven, there's no indication and it's foolish to think that we can possibly live without tears, sickness, and pain. We need to remember that the bible also says that Satan is the prince of the world. As long as Satan is free to tempt, and bring in evil...there will be evil. There will be temptation. Not to mention in Ecclesiastes it even says there is a time to mourn and cry. The more we're convinced that our lives our going to happy and carefree all the time, the more we numb ourselves to the harsh reality of hurts and pain, the harder we fall when that reality finally hits home. We will be kept in constant joy as the bible says yes, but that simply means having peace in the midst of storms, not that the storms will never come. God keeps us from harm not by keeping us happy and meeting our demands, but by giving us that joy that brings peace, not to mention that joy only comes when we keep our minds stayed on the Lord, and you know as well as I do, that it's much easier said than done. If you keep believing these false interpretations of verses, then Job went through hell because why?
