I found the following statement made some years ago very interesting!....

Adrian Rogers on Prosperity

Dr Adrian Rogers, 1931-2005 gave these statements some years back . . .

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets
the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

DON'T YELL.

You can judge a tree by it's fruit.

Yes that is true! But the true judgement will come when HE comes. The LORD will provide for all his children. Jesus is so good. Just watch the sky and listen for the sound! [Cross]

It is wise for Christians to warn others about Prosperity Preachers. They are leading people astray. Plus when people who are fed only Prosperity preaching face financial difficulties their faith will take a hit.
Nice to meet you Jean.
