LOL!!! God's Word is found in the God-inspired scriptures in the Holy Bible and little man's Word is usually just silly evil trash!
GISMYS, your remarks are entirely impotent before me. You are not qualified to speak on behalf of Scripture, to offer warnings or exhortations. You're a greedy, misguided and avaricious anti-christ.

Guys, just a heads up. They have posted warnings about shutting threads down for this sort of thing. Just step back from it for awhile and pray for each other.

To Remember is Always to Prosper (April 19, 2020) | Jesse Duplantis

GISMYS,
Why don't you just invest in the stock market, you might get a better return on your money!
God is not a slot machine! Do you not realize there are so many very very poor devout Christians? They are grateful for little they DO have. If God blesses a Christian with money, it is not to be spent on their own selfish desires.

"You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures." Seems the Jesse's of this world are sitting pretty!
James 4:3

"A faithful man will abound with blessings, but whoever hastens to be rich will not go unpunished."
Proverbs 28:20

Proof!!! or just slander??? Jesus says judge not lest you be judged!!! Now show us the proof you have against God's family!!
""above all things""==""above all things""==Easy to understand !""above all things""
3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish ""above all things"" that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. ""above all things"
Then why will you judge thee body of Christ based on their material possessions? You my friend are the one standing in judgement.

I not sure his title would be anti-christ, or atleast I wouldn't give that much credit. I see more of a parrot, maybe a false prophet?

Truth, Give me is not a bad person, he's a victim. He's sat under these perversions of the gospel of Jesus for so long he's in a neurological wonder land. Only the power of a Holy God can pull one from such a delusion. I've read several on here state they were also there once. So I hold out with hope for him and the many others in this state of mind.

I'll ask again how can many be made rich by one that is poor?

Understand==God wants for His family that ""above all things"" that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Part of God's best wishes for His Son was that he endure the cross so as to win "many brethren."

Name calling,slander!!! Grow up!

I believe you're a Christian, brother--perhaps even a good Christian apart from this matter of doubling down on Faith Teaching without being willing to respond to legitimate Christian complaints and concerns. If some, like myself, are seriously concerned that your doctrine does not accord with the Bible, why do you not answer the concerns? That shows you don't care or have a persecution complex. Prove you're a "good Christian" by responding to the concerns. Otherwise, I can only agree with the brother that you are *not* a good Christian! Or, I would have to agree, you don't deserve to call yourself a respectable leader or minister of the Gospel--at least not in this particular matter.

Those that will not or cannot believe the Word of God are far, far beyond my help!!!

This is an opening salutation of a letter.. it isnt theological teaching.

Let us think about the salutations in the letters and e-mail messages that we ourselves send and receive. You might begin an e-mail with the statement, “I hope that this letter finds you doing well.” If I find that too understated for a given recipient, I might write, “I hope that this finds you and yours flourishing in every way.” Are these promises? No: they are wishes. The person who receives my expression of good wishes does not claim it as something assured. In fact, sometimes the recipients of my letters share with me the difficulties through which they are currently passing.
He was probably making these wishes because his friend was unwell of poor. It's just shameful how you pull verses out of context to abuse God's word.

So you think this inspired scripture is Not God saying=""above all things""==""above all things""==Easy to understand !""above all things""
3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish ""above all things"" that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. ""above all things""
Would you say God does NOT want you to above all things that you should prosper and be in good health??

I would suggest that you haven't a clue what this scripture means.

Did Jesus have a brick house, BMW???

What need has a poor man in need of a man to carry the money bag?? John 13:29 Judas had the moneybag, Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.

We are told not to take the Lord's name in vain. We are told not to create a "graven image" of God, ie a false representation of God's truth.

This is what you're doing by claiming Faith Doctrine is the "Word of God!" You should either repent or justify your beliefs as truly biblical. Asserting that your beliefs are, in fact, the Word of God is not respectable--not unless you're willing to show it is biblical.

You don't show something is biblical by quoting Scriptures alone. You must show the reason behind it, to show that it truly is biblical. Otherwise, you're on a par with Christian cults who claim things and just expect you to believe them because they quote Scriptures along with their beliefs.

LOL!!! What could be more biblical than posting God's Word chapter and verse??

Many say Jesus had no money but Jesus had a special man just to carry the money bag!! Think!
