See post #19, sounds like you need to back up your stance with scripture, cause I don't think anyone preaches that credibly. The only people that aren't self reliant are priests that rely on donations. We are self reliant with Gods help so we can sustain our church congregation. We all have a place and a purpose, but ours is self reliant.The whole teaching of Jesus was to NOT be self reliant...
You're not a republican are you? Dems and liberals, aaarrrgggghhhhExactly sister .
Trust in the LORD . We cannot even trust in our own selves . BUT WE CAN TRUST IN THE GLORIOUS LORD .
Yes indeed . LET the LORD BE PRAISED .
The abundant life is not about money and things in life
ITS SIMPLY KNOWING THE LORD . PRAISE THE KING .

Stunned, just curious if you see the difference between the Israelite's in the desert and today. They saw miracles from God and God was delivering them into a promised land. It's quite different for us today. The 12 Apostles were to go without purse or script. But we're not one of the 12. We would be considered them which the 12 visit and teach. We already dwelling in the land of promise in that way. So yeah care for yourself, and if you can't get help, and pray that God helps you.
Interesting. Are you one of those people that preaches that we should sell all and give to the poor and follow after Christ. Or are you the type that supports working for a living, maintaining a place of residence and supports your local priest clergy?I see no difference between Israel in the desert and us, since we make the same exact mistakes.

(Matthew) 19:21-24KJVGod has given me some work to do with my own hands and I do it.
I am also one of those people who believes if we want to follow Him we must sell all we have and pick up our cross and follow Him if we want that one thing we lack.
But what I DONT recommend is to ever lie and say we have sold all and given all when we haven’t. Annais and Sephira show us the folly of that!
God desires that men be truthful. If the truth is that you haven’t sold all you have then just be truthful.
I am a Jesuscrat or a biblican . In other words i aint political . My kingdom is not of this world , nor is my hope in it .You're not a republican are you? Dems and liberals, aaarrrgggghhhh

Its all over the bible where we are not to have confidence in ourselves , but trust soley in God .Okay,
you go gather the scriptures where Jesus spoke about and preached self reliance and I will gather the ones where He spoke about and preached the opposite and we will compare them.
Give the verses from our Lords mouth where He preached self reliance and we will have a conversation about what you aver.
You're confusing clergy with congregation. Jesus said to sell all and follow after him to build a clergy of priests for his church. Common sense tells us that we can't all be clergy.God has given me some work to do with my own hands and I do it.

talk about trusting in money and many years .If you have a million you can invest it and be set for life.
Amigo, I'm not naive, and if I died, that money would go to my children. So I'm really not sure what your point is.talk about trusting in money and many years .
I could die tonight then whose money will that have been .
And as far as being set for life . I already am . IN JESUS . I can do all things THROUGH HIM . As in Through HIM .
Even dead broke , persecuted and etc , I shall abound in Him . You might not realize this
but you are actually trusting in money .
Your statement says , if you had a million you can invest it and bet set for life .
Mine says , I ALREADY AM RICH and INVESTED IN JESUS with treasures and hopes above and have hope in ETERNAL LIFE .
You need to learn to not trust in your own reasoning and understanding . And to just give it all unto the LORD .
Be encouraged my friend . Just learn well that GOD alone , Christ alone is all we need to trust in .
My point is you do trust in money . You said if you had a million you could be set for life .Amigo, I'm not naive, and if I died, that money would go to my children. So I'm really not sure what your point is.
Ever been homeless in this modern world Amigo? I have, be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.My point is you do trust in money . You said if you had a million you could be set for life .
ME i say whether i have or whether i lack , I ALREADY AM SET FOR LIFE , CAUSE THE LORD IS MY HOPE and is all i do need .
TRULY HE is all we need . Even if i lacked all , was in prison and ready to be killed . STILL I WOULD HAVE ALL
FOR JESUS IS OUR ALL , AND HE IS WITH THE LAMBS . IN HE ALONE IS OUR HOPE .
My prayer is neither . ITS LET THE WILL OF GOD BE DONE .Ever been homeless in this modern world Amigo? I have, be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.
Well I've been homeless and also shared my home with the homeless. But if I don't have money then I don't have a home to share.My prayer is neither . ITS LET THE WILL OF GOD BE DONE .
I already am homeless in this world . It aint my home anyway . And if by the will of GOD i were made homeless
true christains would share their homes . what is mine is yours and what is yours is mine .
I dont pray for this or that . I simply say , THE WILL OF GOD BE DONE .
