     | 2,089 views

    Many Christians understand success unbiblically. They have been deceived into chasing success according to the world's standards. They should know that the measure of success according to God is very different from the world's.

    Today, I will discuss success. I have been reluctant to discuss this topic because I do not want to be associated with the teaching of "Theology of Success" or "Prosperity Gospel," which is not based on the complete teachings of the Bible. But two weeks ago, I felt the Holy ...read more
