IDK Where This Came From

Last night I was looking at a notebook and ran across a quote. The only thing is I don't know where it came from. I didn't write down who said it or what book I copied it from. I want to share it though.

"The health, wealth, and prosperity "gospel" swallows up the beauty of Christ in the beauty of gifts and turns the gifts into idols."

I am not into the prosperity gospel it is so stupid (I don't say this word very often). If the prosperity gospel was true then why do people in other countries struggle? Also people here in America struggle but American people for some reason think everyone makes the same amount of money. I know many good Christians that don't have very much money and sometimes their income is what makes them good Christians. They have to rely more on God. It drives me insane when people says that everyone won't mind to give a certain price for something. I have actually felt like correcting them and saying that everyone doesn't make the amount of money you make.

OK I got on my soap box for today but it is something we as Christians should think about.

Multiply

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it... Genesis 1:28

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar is really fulfilling this statement God made to Adam and Eve. Yesterday I saw that one of my friends on Facebook posted that Michelle Duggar is expecting a baby. What's the big deal you ask. Well it is only going to make Jim Bob's and Michelle's 19th child. That's right folks she is having her 19th baby. Brave woman!
