IS there Pie in the Sky when you Die?

IS there Pie in the Sky when you Die?

Why do so many Churches preach Poverty, when the good Lord promises us In John 10:10 ‘’The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I have come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly’’.  

 

Matthew. 13:3 "Behold a sower went out to sow; 4. And when he sowed some seeds fell by the wayside, and the fowls came and devoured them up." 8. "But others fell upon good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtvfold. 9. Who hath ears to hear. let him hear." 10. And the disciples came, and said unto him; Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

11. He answered and said unto them: "Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but unto them it is not given."

12. "For whosever hath. to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath." 13. "Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not: and hearing they hear not. Neither do they understand." 15."For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing and their eyes they have closed."

16. "But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and for your ears, for they hear."Interesting! Very interesting! Now what think vou of a farmer who sowed his seed in his neighbor's field? If the fowls came and ate the seed that fell by the wayside, who would reap the harvest of the seed sown in his neighbour’s field, he or his neighbour?

 

Before you begin to call that farmer a fool, let me ask you: Where do you, yourself. sow your own seed? The money you earn is your seed. So do you rent or are you buying your own home? Who banks your seed money, you or your landlord? Do you leave your seed money, your precious profit, in your own business or in your neighbour's retail business? Again, who banks your seed money, you or your neighbour? Which of you then will become wealthy?     

Galatians: 6:7 "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap". If you sow not neither, can you reap. If then you desire to reap, begin to sow. Galatians: 6:9 ''And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." Indeed. you'll find no quitters among the winners! Ever? Never, no, not ever! Sow then, but do it in your own field or prepare to reap as you have sown. Your business is your own field. Are you in business or do you live your life in blissful ignorance of what you are doing?  you use the good education you were encouraged to get to build your own dream or have you bought into that big lie: use your good education to get a good job and work hard all your life building another man's dream while you give your money to your neighbour so that he can become wealthy?

 

Don't you and your family deserve more than just seeking out a bare living? Many people have given absolutely no thought to what they are doing! Proverbs 13:22 "A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children, and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just." And Ecclesiastes 2:26 "For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap UP... This is vanity and vexation of spirit." So what are you going to do? Close your eyes and muffle your ears? And grow vexed and angry at God and the world as you grow old? Alternatively: Read. Study. Think and Grow Rich! Tithe your increase in wealth and give the Lord thanks for all his many blessings. Deut. 8:18 "But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth." When all blessings are received by obedience to the laws upon which they are predicated, how can one continue to break God's laws and still expect to receive His blessing of abundance and prosperity? Seek out wise counsel of those whose eyes and ears can both see and hear and who acknowledge our Lord's hand in all things. For guess what? There's no need to wait till you die because there's ample Pie on earth while we yet live. Let's enjoy our  abundance and give thanks to our Lord who has made it all possible!
