Prosperity: What does Biblical prosperity look like?
It looks like this in the KJV & it reads purty good to�but I have found that the word prosperty is not found in the New Testament...Why is that ?
1.Deuteronomy 23:6~ Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
2.1 Samuel 25:6 ~ And thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be both to thee, and peace be to thine house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.
3.1 Kings 10:7 ~ Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom and prosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard.
4.Job 15:21 ~ A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.

11.Proverbs 1:32 ~ For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
12.Ecclesiastes 7:14 ~ In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.
13.Jeremiah 22:21 ~ I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice.
14.Jeremiah 33:9 ~ And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.
15.Lamentations 3:17 ~ And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.
16.Zechariah 1:17 ~ Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
17.Zechariah 7:7 ~ Should ye not hear the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the south and the plain?
Richard, I have worked a a missionary/evangelist for over 25 years to the poor in Mississippi, in street misnirty to the homeless, in Simgapore, and across many states here in America, so what's your point?... and I have seen the salvation of the Lord move mightily in people's lives and rural areas, and in churches... so maybe you didn;t have the right gosple message, and God didn't call you to Go where you went.. don;t judge or cndemn my ministry work!
ET I have never judged your missionary work but God will judge you by His sacred Words in I Timothy 2:12 and I Corinthians 14:33,34 and whether you have taught everything Jesus commanded as per Matt 28:20; John 14:23,24 and I John 2:3-5.
Richard said: ET I have never judged your missionary work but God will judge you by His sacred Words in I Timothy 2:12 and I Corinthians 14:33,34 and whether you have taught everything Jesus commanded as per Matt 28:20; John 14:23,24 and I John 2:3-5.
Ella says: And Richard, who told you God will judge me by His sacred Word as in I Timohty chapter 2:12; and I Corinthians chapter 14:33-34?... because a true prophet of the Lord you are not... so who told you these things? So shouldn't this be God's and my concerns and not yours? I think so...
WE ALL are going to be rightously judged according to His Holy Word according to our deeds whether good or bad, so are you prepared for your judgment for judging and condmning what God has set forth?
I would rather obey God than anything you have to say to me.... as I said, you had nothing, nor do you have anything to do with my ministry works OR my calling to teach or preach in the church or outside the church... so what your problem?And Again, I say to you, You need to get busy in your own business and get yourself some business cards, cuz, you are dipping in God's and my buisness, and I don't have any business cards for you... Where are you teaching or preaching in the churches? And when did you start giving God counsel , His thoughts are not your thoughts, nor can you give HIm counsel, He does as He please with His word.
Again, I say, in cause you don't know the first person to carry the gospel (Good News ) of Jesus Christ of His resurrection was given to a woman, whom Jesus told to GO tell His disciples the Good News that He had risen...
BTW, I DO NOT plan to go back and forth over this with you, I have said what I needed to say, and you say what you feel you need to say, but there is nothing you can say to stop me from doing what I do in ministry so what's your purpose and intent?
And not only do I teach and preach not in just one church, but in all the church of different denominations who call upon me. How 'bout that ?...:yay:
Go study to show yourself approved by God a workman who does not have need to be shamed becasue you fail to rightly divide the Word of truth...
And Richard, as PJ was told, so shall you hear the same... this thread is not about me preaching or teaching or women being in ministry... its about Biblical prosperity.
So, If you would like to discuss women in ministry teaching and preaching... then go start a thread about such...
I have some very qualified scholarly teachers and mentors whom God has chosen as my overseers...
Would those scholarly teachers include Benny Hinn and Joel Osteen?? There are many Good Christian scholars who believe that these two teachers come straight from Hell and only teach Satan's Gospel??
Richard what does that have to do with anything, you believe it to that has nothing to do with the bible.
Here is another dose of Jesus:
Joh 10:10 TheG3588 thiefG2812 comethG2064 not,G3756 butG1508 for toG2443 steal,G2813 andG2532 to kill,G2380 andG2532 to destroy:G622 IG1473 am comeG2064 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 life,G2222 andG2532 that they might haveG2192 it more abundantly.G4053
John 10:10 NIV Jesus says, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full!"
I Corinthians 15:19: If only for this life we have hope in Christ , we are to be pitied more than all men.
Romans 6:23: The Gift of God is ETERNAL *LIFE* in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Luke 12:15,20,21: Jesus says, "Watch out be on your guard against all kind of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions...God said to him You fool! This very night your life will be demanded of you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself. This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself!"
John 12:25: Jesus says, "The man who loves his life will lose it.While the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for ETERNAL *LIFE*!"
Matthew 4:7,8: "The Devil took Jesus to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. Satan said "All this I will give if you will bow down and worship Me."
I John 2:15: "Do not love the world or anything in the world, If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him."
