Why are Christians so rich

Ito_^ SG

so.. if a stockbroker converts to christianity, he must quit his job or face criticism from his brothers? and all stock brokers are liars?

Yes.. i agree, doesn't not mean that 10 rich christians can represent all the christian believer in singapore. What we see is only the surface where the rich wear gold watches, branded clothling, but deep inside are many of us hiding our sorrows and proverty to ourselves, who know the sufferings?

Ito_^ SG

actually the question i wanna ask is.. why christians cannot be rich?

Icemoon SG

it not about who should be rich who shouldnt be...but why material wealth should be taken as a measure...

fandango SG

ah, you are misquoting me. I didn't say all stock brokers are liars. What i am trying to say is that you rarely see a Christian borker (excluding Charismatic circles).

If a stockbroker converts to christianity, it is really up to him. If he is truely saved, he will leave his job. If he is from Charismatic circles, he will continue to "praise the Lord".

ok den we shld pray dat our economy be manipulated by charismatic circles den athetist hor?

Should faith be considered when considering economists and traders?

oh dear, mabbe shady got something to say...

dragg SG

in the bible GOD has said something like that "it is more difficult for a rich man to go to heaven than for a camel to go through a needle"

and its true. simply because rich people often think they're ok already. so they don't feel that they need God, they're living a really comfortable life. so they don't see a need for God in their lives.

but whereas a christian who is rich is different. he has already dedicated his life to Christ, and Christ comes first in his life. his sins are already paid for. Being rich isn't affecting his relationship with God. it is a blessing for him to enjoy, which he blesses others with too.

spiritually rich, or materially rich?
