This world is not fair

[Jesus_is_Saint]

Bad people, evil people, gain more wealth than honest people.
Evil people live good lives, honest and hard working people earn very less and live poor lives.

This world is not fair, why have we (Christians) to become good people?
What's the reward?
Sometimes, and always, you will feel that it is stupid to be good!

 

[frienden thalord]

My foot had nigh well slipped for I had been envious of the wicked.
Why does the wicked get much wealth and have it easy etc
TILL I went into the TABERNACLE OF GOD AND I SAW THEIR END
YES LORD YOU HAVE SET THEM IN SLIPPERY PLACES.
Go read some good psalms.
The wicked are full of deceit , therefor they wax RICH
Ever remember JESUS saying seek not these things, Be CONTENT
IF We were given what we fairly deserve and earn..........we would all GO TO HELL.
I would rather ponder of the riches IN CHRIST and be overflowing with pure peace and joy.

Look not to the world for answers.

Seek Jesus who is Truth.

Who spoke of these things two thousand years ago.

Mark 8:36

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

 

[frienden thalord]

Look at how it treated the ONE who had created it.
We are not above our master, the world hated him , it will us too.
But I say rejoice in the LORD.
Really though we should deeply ponder that.
The one who created it, became flesh
was treated like he had a demon, was cast out , beaten , scourged
and yet Endured all contradictions of sinners against himself.
Imagine that . I mean heck I did not create the world
all I ever did was wicked , vile and just upmost vulgar.
Yet my creator endured all, so this wicked vile thing could be saved.
ME............that is what I REJOICE IN . ANd HE is all I need.
if I lose everything , man I have lost nothing.............HE is the all and all
and the hope and joy of my heart.
Why desire the riches which fade, which corrupt the heart of the one who seeks them.
WHy not just rejoice in the true riches which is Christ , the riches that do profit a man
Leap up peoples and sing , WE have hope and we have the victory , for we have Christ .
And though hand join in hand against me..............I fear not man, nor what comes
against me ........I have all hope for I have Christ and I do rejoice in his salvation.

Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.

Does God take action against the evil and wealthy people?

 

[Sketcher]

Psalm 37 was written for that.

When you are looking at everything else or devoting your attention on what others have and you dont instead of God and His Word, nothing is going to flow right.

Mathew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

This means that you focus on God and His Ways AND do them, live by them and more will be added unto you.

Be thankful for what you do have and seek God in what He has and then you will see gain.
Blessings

Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.
Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
Delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalms 37:1-4

I just listened to a teaching 2 days back on the different ways on how to DELIGHT in the Lord. They are:-
1. Praise and worship
2. Meditate on the Word
3. Wait on the Lord
4. Fear the Lord

I have recently realized that counting your blessings can greatly help to reduce our negativities. Be thankful to God that He has blessed you with good health so that you can go work and earn something to provide for yourself and your family.
Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous. Psalms 37:16-17

 

[Humble me Lord]

Great replies, can I add James 4:14 ,
"whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away."
We are only here for a very short time, and should not measure our successes by the standards of this world.
Putting your personal relationship with God before everything else in this life can and will change you, it is for eternal life that we should strive.

 

[Jesus_is_Saint]

Does God really punish the evil doers in this life?
What good is it if you tell the evil doers that they will go to hell after death?
They don't even believe in after life, they will continue to do evil to gather wealth and live evil lives.

 

[Jesus_is_Saint]

Are Christians aware that we are living in this world, we are subject to the influence and control of the political/social/economic system of this world.
You may think that loving money is not godly, but you always have no choice but to work hard for money too, because you need to survive.
Who will pay for your house/car loans?
Who will pay for your children's education fees?
Like it or not, you could also lose your job, and have no money to survive,
your church will not help you too,
I don't think there are many churches will help members who lose their jobs and fall into financial difficulty.
You have no choice, you have to bow down to the evil system of this world in order to survive.
Do you really believe God will provide your needs?

 

[Jesus_is_Saint]

"money" is very important to Church, because I see that many churches are asking for millions of offering, with the reason to expand the kingdom of God.

Church is the place where people always talk about money money money.
The pastor talk about it.
All the time the church's management will say that "we need money to expand the kingdom of God".

Yes, money is so important to church.
Therefore, Christians have to work hard for money, with the "holy reason" of earning money for God.
Is that true?

The world is unfair because it is fallen..

beling good is good because it is good to be good.. not for worldly material advantage but because it is Good to be good..

Christians have Hope for an eternal destiny which shall be good...

 

[Jesus_is_Saint]

But God should exercise his justice in the present time and in this world,
does God postpone his judgment to after life? I can't imagine that.

 

[frienden thalord]

Does God take action against the evil and wealthy people?

Do not desire the destruction of the wicked when it comes.
YES HE DOES.
BUT OUR hearts should remember HOW WICKED we are wwithout HIM
and the fact that HE reconciled us to GOD while enemies.
SO our mission is to preach the reconciliation of GOD to man
the gospel of Christ , in hopes ourenemies will repent and be saved.

Yeah that we me, deserve hell. YET received Grace.
that is why I have so much joy..because my joy nor peace
does not come from my circumstances in this world
MY JOY and my peace endures no matter how I suffer
because MY JOY IS IN THE SALVATION OF GOD.........my JOY is in the LORD
and this is MY STRENGHT and HOPE that endures all things that come against me.
Cause I have HOPE and HOPE ENDURES. PRAIES THE LORD PEOPLES
SING WITH ME PEOPLES SING.

Honestly I worry not one ounce about this.
I work just day by day, and if the time comes that I am even hunted , persecuted
on the run , WHY WORRY...........GOD FEEDS SPARROWS HE WILL ME EVEN THEN.
Talk about PEACE of mind. BUT THEN JESUS DID SAY MY PEACE I GIVE UNTO YOU
Tribulations are bound to come . Its impossible that offences against me wont come.
BUT MY PEACE wont wane one ounce. FOR GOD IS WITH ME no matter what comes
against me...........and even if I am killed.............to be absent from the body
OH PRAISE THE LORD is to be present with HIM , WHAT JOY on that DAY
but joy I have even now..........NOW THIS IS THE PEACE that PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING
OH let the people receive the LORD and the abundant life of KNOWING HIM
and TRUSTING HIM......the JOY of the LORD . HE IS OUR INHERITANCE
HE IS THE RICHES that never fade. SING IT PEOPLE < JUST SING IT.

THEY preaching the false prosperity, get the heck away from them.
I told people over and over again this prosperity gospel they preach
turns man against GOD. why don't god love me , why do others prosper and I don't.
AND this is a example today .
HERE is PROSPERITY>...............BLESSED BE HE WHO COMES in the name of the LORD
yeah DAVID knew PROSPERITY , real PROSPERITY
he CRIES FOR IT IN PSALM 118
HE says OH LORD SEND NOW PROSPERITY...and the answer BLESSED BE HE WHO COMES
in the name of the LORD........HE SAW JESUS ..........he even speaks of the STONE in that
psalm. Jesus is THE RICHES............
