I think he's right. Too many people believe and teach that Christians will not have anymore problems and will have earthly wealth. Jesus never promised that. He promised that, through Him and His sacrifice, we would have eternal life in heaven with God...that's where our treasures are; not here.

Thank you. Something I've felt in my spirit, but try NOT to be lead by feelings. Glad to have folks like u who open the box, so we can have a real look inside.

When I was involved in the WOF Gloria Copeland was a good one for saying that we could have "days of heaven on the earth" if we just had enough faith. Funny, but Jesus promised we'd have trials and tribulations but we're to be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. WOF is nothing but pie in the sky hogwash!
