Nothing you said contradicts anything I wrote. And how dare you completely mischaracterize me with you "poverty minded Christians" comment? Again, you should be ashamed.
I never said or implied that MONEY is the root of all evil.
I never said or insinuated that the kingdom will belong to the MATERIALLY poor.
I never said rich people can't go to Heaven.
I am referring to a doctrinal mindset that says that as believers, we have a
divine right and duty to be wealthy, and that God wants us to be wealthy. This unbalanced teaching declares that there is a scriptural formula for never having a financial set back, or times of want. The ones who seem to really prosper from this teaching are those who make a comfortable living selling books and recordings of their "
prosperity" teachings. These false teachers are mentioned by Paul to Timothy, "
supposing that gain is godliness, from such turn away."
