Why Are Some Christians Lazy by DAVIDMOE(m): 9:07am On Oct 25, 2020
I have found out that some Christians are lazy in the name of:
1) waiting for God's time: does God have a particular time that someone will reach and become successful? I can't say this statement is right or wrong, but I think some people failed to understand that God cannot work without them making the first move. God works with what we have.

2) Alleging that God want them to be poor: God's plan is that we become successful.
I heard a guy saying one day that "he is unsuccessful because God called him" I was like seriously!. isn't that God that call you the same God that called Abraham (the richest man in his own time)?

3) you are not of the world: this statement has confused many believers to think that they don't have to enjoy their lives.. you see some Christians separating their selves totally from the environment, therefore missing opportunities.

4) vanity upon vanity mentality: remember that everything in this life is vanity; even our body.
we are to understand that the rich is even given the front seat In the church lol...

It's faulty revelation/perspective not just about being lazy or hard working

That vanity upon vanity stuff is what I hate to hear

Vanity upon vanity, yet you will see pastors using expensive cars, handsets and living luxury life

You forgot to add that some love to reap where they did not sow.Imagine someone giving testimony that he got a job he wasn't qualified for or another one that came across a huge amount of money and kept it for himself.

To the poster, do you know that there are people in life who does not want prosperity at all?

one man meat may be another man poison my friend.

Remember jose mujica the word poorest president who has all it takes to be rich but chose otherwise.

We will start seeing the other side of life the day we stop seeing financial prosperity as the most intresting thing.

I blame the pastors for that. all prophets are hard working and plenty of them are poor in the body, but they are still happy and have peace of mind.
but now a days pastors only teach about prosperity and money money money. may God Sha help us.

Most Nigerians are Lazy, after that Christians who should have the advantage of acquiring God's Salvation and Elevation through the Gift of the Bible, are no different from their fellow Nigerian brothers.

Therefore, they are all in the same place having the same Result!
