You Will Have All that You Asked For

Where our treasures are stored, there our hearts will be, too. Because I’m sure Christians being persecuted in Rome and Germany weren’t going around saying, “You know, I’m going to have that Millstone I always wanted.” Lol.

It’s really the cruelest part of the modern Christian faith, to throw verses like this at people. Making them think they have to accumulate a life now, when that’s just not possible for some people. In fact, most people.

Not to mention, most cultures are so poor they don’t have anything to really want.

Linking fortune with belief… that’s just not how it works. God’s in control, He’ll bestow fortune on whom He does, and ruin on whom He does. Belief is a non sequitur.

But mountains do move by faith… but generally, it’s different than you’d understand. The real stuff is knowledge of God, and knowing Him. It’s God Who moves the mountain, and makes things real. As the point isn’t, “God moves the mountain” but God establishes the mountain, and removes it by our belief. We are removed from this mountain—Mount Horeb—to mount Zion.
