When I have a question about if something is right or not I Always ask myself is it biblical. And I'm into prepping but is that opposite of having faith? Should I be trusting God instead?

..... prepped.In fact the Word says that Noah
I do not know why people assume that because you prep you are neglecting faith for salvation by the blood of Jesus...... prepped.
.
But, ..... don't neglect salvation (and all that it includes) by faith in Jesus, by grace, described throughout the Scripture
mainly , simply, what to do (so much Jesus says to do, ignored by faith-less people),
regardless if they prep or not...
i.e. prepping, if done while ignoring Jesus, won't be any benefit.
So I would think it is non-preppers whose faith should be questioned.
How many tens of millions of beautiful believers have perished in hard times being told it will never happen?Too many think that God won't let them see hard times. They forget
that even here in America there was the great depression and dust
bowl less than 100 years ago. If we have several natural disasters
at once, the stores will empty and people will go hungry in under a
week at most. What happens if it takes a month to get regular food
supplies moving again?
For most preppers yes.And I'm into prepping but is that opposite of having faith?
Trust God FIRST, always, and in everything you do.Should I be trusting God instead?
Millions of Christians have starved to death. Millions have died in calamity, wars, strife, and every way imaginable.For most preppers yes.
Trust God FIRST, always, and in everything you do.
ANYthing done not with faith in God, and likewise knowing(believing this is pleasing God) is sin. i.e. a lot that people do on purpose , almost everything done on earth, is sin. Only God can set anyone free from certain doom and death.
Hi Jake, that's a question that's crossed my mind, a lot. But as others have posted there are examples of storing up for the lean years in the Bible. And I look at it this way, it's to save life. Even if something happens to me, die, raptured, whatever, there will still be people left on earth that will need to eat. So I don't look at it so much that I'm storing up for myself and family but for others that may be in need. Sure there will be runs on the warehouses with food supplies but if someone happens upon my house they will find more, food for the body and food for the soul as I also 'store up' on the word of God (lots of bibles. )When I have a question about if something is right or not I Always ask myself is it biblical. And I'm into prepping but is that opposite of having faith? Should I be trusting God instead?

I never even thought about that. Thank you so much Brian. That really helped me out

You do know this very common phrase in the united states is/was from a worldly incentive and not from a Biblical one, right?As grandma always said " the Lord helps those who help themselves".
All through Scripture,I have no desire to live through what is coming
All through Scripture,
and
particularly in the New Testament, Yeshua,all the Apostles and many if not all disciples of Yeshua
embraced the suffering/ persecution/ tribulation/ beatings/ arrests/ imprisonments/ and executions WILLINGLY AND JOYFULLY (LIKE YESHUA AND STEPHEN) LOOKING FORWARD TO WHAT LIES AHEAD (not as if the reward was in this life, nor ever expected in this life; and never even counting their lives as ones to be protected) ...
