Absolutely it's possible. But we don't measure our value by the abundance of the things we have.. There are a number of Christian billionaires in history. The richest man ever in midern history, John D Rockefeller was a Christian

I don't think so, how? You have to be manipulative, at some point you are push back to the wall to make some compromise which most times is against your faith.. I think you can't be a billionaire and follow 80% of your believe....

With God all things are possible, It is not impossible for the lord to make a poor man suddenly and instantly rich, Satan has nothing, everything in this world belongs to God alone and he can give it to whomsoever he wish but first he will humble u in poverty , so as to see the vanity of the world and hold unto the lord forever

Can a genuine Christian become a billionaire without cutting corners, engaging in shady deals, following the world system, selling his soul to the devil for wealth.

...

If there are biblical records of those in the past being billionaires in today's terms, it surely can exist in our current time.

There should be no bias against rich folks especially if you desire to be one. You just choose the righteous path to acquiring yours and become a good examples to others that would in the future ask a similar question.

Cheers

that's a lie. Money belongs to the devil. When the devil tempted Jesus Christ what did he told him?

Remember we are not of this world and we must not crave for the things of this world. Even Satan tried to tempt Jesus saying if He bow to him, he will give him the kingdoms of this world but Jesus replied Satan with it is written, thou shalt worship the Lord your God and only him shall thou serve. (Luke 4:cool

We may claim there are Christian billionaires but you don't know how they got their wealth, you don't know whether they cut corners or engage in shady deals, corruption, cocaine business, kidnapping to acquire their wealth.



Meaning that Oyedepo and Adeboye are fake.

Re: Can A Genuine Christian Become A Billionaire? by Taye4j: 9:28am On May 31, 2020
Christians can become billionaires if they so wish. Infact, God recognizes and made mention of some powers in the Bible.

1. Political power

2. Power to get wealth

3. Powers in high places etc.

Solomon is a good example. God himself specifically said ' Gold and silver are mine', and until we begin to claim what belongs to us in Christ, we will never understand the kind of authory and blessing we have in him.

Why not?

Money ain't evil... It is the love of it that's evil and when you let it control you.

A Christian could even be a Trillionaire in dollars..No biggie.

Maybe in developed countries, but definitely not in Nigeria. In developed countries, a brilliant individual can get very rich by invention and investment in the stock market.
Many early employees of Microsoft became multimillionaires and retired early. The ambitious ones could have become billionaires.
In Nigeria, it's almost impossible to become rich without cutting corners.
I don't even think all the listed stocks in the Nigerian Stock Exchange are worth up to $3b. I will guess that the vast majority of wealthy Nigerians are criminals, both in the public and private sector.

The "love" of money is the root of evil and not money itself.
Money is tired! Been blamed, abused, accused and still misunderstood.
being a christain/religious doesnt equate to poverty, with money one can do a whole lot of good n vice versa.
There should be balance.

It is left for God to bless who he wants

He blesses some with talents
He blesses some with riches
He blesses some with longlife

Remember Abraham Isaac and Jacob were very rich
Paul the most hardworking of the apostles wasn't rich ....na tent he dey make

So I guess it's God that blessed Abacha, right? Are you implying he wasn't a thief? Or God blessed Evans the kidnapper?
