    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 7, 2019
     | 2,215 views

    Prosperity and suffering are like oil and water. They do not mix. Neither does the Prosperity Gospel mix with the Word.

    One of the principles, given to Noah after the flood, was the principle of seedtime and harvest. Life begins by this principle. Harvest springs from the good or bad seeds we have sown.

    SOW, GROW, PROSPER “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22. The first thing Noah did after the Flood, was to build an altar and make a sacrifice to the Lord. God was pleased with him and made promises to ...read more

    We do not need to let our fears control us. By doing so we make our fears come in front of God. We need to recognize that God is stronger than our fears and when He has called us to do something, He will help us in doing that task.

    True Biblical Prosperity

    Prosperity is not based on what we possess but on who we are inside, or who we are spiritually. Prosperity is not determined by a lack of hard times, but by how we handle tough situations; by whether or not we maintain our joy.

Therefore, I am going to briefly address the false teaching that’s out there, and then point out what the Bible defines as true ...read more
