yes I agree. The socalled “prosperity gospel” often looks like a sacrilege to me, and I do not listen to those preachers. Jesus walked or rode an ass (or two, if you go with some people’s reading of the Mattatean rendition, ha!)..... but try as I might, I’ve so far never found anywhere in the Christian scriptures where Jesus rode in a Mercedes Benz (or two), ha! And, certainly not in a Lear Jet!

Thx to Trump and the way he has flushed out the wealthy elites, I understand why Jesus said it is difficult for the wealthy to get into heaven. The wealthier they get, the less ethics they seem to have, the less concern they have for the people in the society and definitely the less desire they have for God. He cramps their style and their money can supply anything they need.

They are placing a big bet, that when this life ends either He welcomes them in or else their is no hereafter. The Bible is very clear, no beating around the push what it takes to enter Heaven.
