it's all about the relaity, many of the leader int his wolrd come from the people without religion, so where the christian people, look at the bible, Bible say that Our God so rich, He is almighty. so why many of christian people so poor, and when they look at the rich preacher, they will say ohhh it's not right. why we must trap in our min boundaries, so get out from boundaries, and take the wealth.

if God would make all the people rich or wealthy, who would do the job we hate doing? none in the verses of the Bible had i seen that God was rich or if i had mistaken then what passage was that?
God bless those who believe and those that do not. we save our souls here on earth and not wealth or money or material things.
i maybe poor here on earth but i will gather up riches in heaven. thats what God would want us to do.

God is not rich if you look at it the materialistic way. He could have been born with a rich family in a posh castle if He wanted it that way since He is God but, instead He was born of a fisherman (Joseph) and a maiden (Mary) in a manger along with the horses and cattle. there is no pot of gold in heaven my friend. God can only make things possible for people who believes in Him. what you see are or may like are wordly things which God himself may not allow you to have. why? no man can serve two masters at the same time. you cannot have both your money and God. what God has promised us is eternal life in heaven.
God can only make life easy for us but won't go down from the heavens to give you money. fact of life- you have to earn it. as for the promised eternal life you have to serve your worth here on earth and prove God you are worthy keeping in heaven with Him.

i am sorry, i think i don't agree. come on, we think in the real world. if you are the mom and you have child, and you are so rich, do you let you child become poor? i think not, maybe you will prepare heritage for your child, no one parents like their child poor, so same with God, do you think that God which have the gold way in heaven like HIS children suffering with the poor situation?i think no.

Yes our God is so rich that there is nothing made on this earth that was not the work of his mighty hands, and i know the we are all the handiwork of his fingers, if you want to be very sure God is so rich and his wealthyness is unlimited, "please considered the things of the nature" especially the sea viewin g it from the sea shore.
I reasoned very well and found out that the reason, why some christians are poor is because, they are ingnorance to the importance of being obedient to God their father, who by all means favoured and blessed Abraham alot and makes him the father of all nations dueto his obedient to God.
If as christians i dont want to be poor while i know that my God is a rich GOd i have to obey the commandment he layed down for me in his word for me to be prospered.

We as Christians are rich towards God, but our richness is not in the material things we possess but in spiritual richness. God is not a fairy godfather who gives us everything we want by wishing for it. HE has given us the ability to work hard and to make wise investments. Satan is also the ruler of this world and he does his best to discourage Christians and favor those of his ilk, so therefore it is only natural that many Christians are poor in material goods. Therefore when we do work harder, there is so much against us, the employer who wants us to work on Sunday or we cannot work at all.
As for those preachers, there is a verse in the Bible that says "Lord, Lord have we not done all in THY name, and in THY name done many wonderful works, ====and HE says Depart from Me I never Knew You."
