So you teach that Christians have it easy and are spared suffering? Jesus never taught any such thing. I have known many fine Christians who suffered and died to glorify God. What better testimony to the doctors and healthcare workers that to suffer without complaint and give God the glory?

Exactly sometimes the deliverance is death.
You really should do something about the projection of hate issues you display. Physical death is just a doorway to eternal life for the believer.

False pretense. Christians suffer from all the afflictions that the lost suffer but Christians have hope in their suffering. But you don't have any knowledge of such suffering.
Ridiculous.

You ever consider the book of Job? Hebrews 12:8? Ps 116:15? Ps 44:22?
Share in His suffering that you might reign with Him.
BG never did provide any discipleship only crop duster evangelism.
Much of the richness of Christ is found in suffering.

God is sovereign and not passive in the care of His children.
Precious in the sight of God is the death of His saints. We are counted as sheep to the slaughter for the glory of God. God scourges His children for His glory. God is not passive but sovereign. All is by His determinate will and...
We know that God brings suffering and infirmity to believers to use them as a testimony of how to suffer for His names sake. Those who suffer are drawn closer to God and they testify of the goodness of God in suffering.
Only if the testimony is aligned with the word of God. Much of what men...
It will only work in a theocracy. No government of man will ever function on a completely benevolent basis. Fallen mankind can only produce fallen societies.

Jesus declared He was God by His works. He knew that even with their bodies healed they needed to be forgiven of their sins to enter eternal life. Priorities are important. The sermon on the mount sets the priorities. Entering into heaven lame is better than not entering.
Nothing more than the...
From the bible we have several reasons for the conflict. Romans 1:21-22 gives insight. 2 Tim 4:3 is another scripture that is on point.
We are far late in the age than we realize.

Jesus came to die on the cross at Calvary. He came to reconcile lost mankind back to the Father. He did not come to fret over the ailments of the flesh. He came to provide justification, sanctification and glorification to those who place their trust in Him.
How about you endeavor to tell me...
I have repeated many verses that contradict this recent fad in the so called Christian church. I'm not going to continue to give scripture to those who have not desire to hear.
Only God can change the heart. In these end times men seek only to have their ears tickled. the reject correct...
Always interesting to see folks who know nothing pontificate about the end times.
Zech 14 is set in the millennial kingdom period. After all the judgments upon the earth those who have survived will worship Jesus Christ on His throne in Jerusalem. Those who do not will receive no rain.

Sorry but it is you who has cast aside all context in these three chapters to arrive at a wrong biblical position. Of course you will never agree with me because you have no interest in the truth.
You will have anything except Christ and Him crucified. You desire only gifts which are not...
Interesting question. The answer in a modern society is of course in the negative but perhaps in Israel that may not hold true.
Modern day prophets especially Gentiles should be assumed to be fraudulent.

The desperation of your argument is obvious. Bold enough to impugn the fidelity of Christ rather than admit that 1 Cor 13:8 says what it says.
You accuse others of being hatful yet you exhibit hate.

1 Cor 13:8 which you have no doubt carefully excised from your bible.
Is this a demonstration of spirit filled people?
You cast doubt on which Jesus you claim to believe. You have been steeped in apostacy and are deeply stained.
