1 Timothy 4:8 AMP For physical training is of some value (useful for a little), but godliness (spiritual training) is useful and of value in everything and in every way, for it holds promise for the present life and also for the life which is to come. Jesus said the Pharisees on that day of Judgement will try to use Moses as their excuse. They would claim that if Moses indeed pointed them out to Jesus they would have believed in him. But Jesus said, Moses will be the one to deny them. He will tell them I told you many times but you didn't listen. Now Paul is going to say the same things too. From the above verse he has told us how that the gospel will benefit us not only in this present world but in the one to come. Yet some people who claim to be following Paul have claimed that it is greed and love for the world that makes us believe so. Thank God Paul is not saying the same things with them. How does the gospel benefit anyone in this present world? I thought it was suffer on earth and enjoy in heaven? I thought it was ONLY in heaven that the gospel will benefit us? I thought God was for the past and future while the present was for us to suffer poverty, ill health etc till we enter heaven? Some gospel this is. I reject it in the name of the lord Jesus. Amen and amen. 2 Likes |

mbaemeka: Mr Mba, you will need a lot of bible twisting to prove that that bible passage is saying Timothy will have money,perfect health and material wealth as a believer. Paul was in no way telling Timothy he would have any of such things, in fact Timothy was martyred around AD 97, about thirty years after Paul. Paul got Timothy's mind ready for the service and the afflictions that it attracts. 2 Tim 1 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: [size=26pt]but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel[/size] according to the power of God; Stop sharing false hopes oooo 2 Likes |

trustman: I agree. Now the question is, from that verse above, what are the benefits to be gained from this present world? I believe all of us agree that there are benefits in the life to come. But Paul also spoke about the benefits in this present world. That's what I am referring to. 2 Likes |

mbaemeka: You think! Only the one who wears the shoes knows where it hurts. The bible says there is a false confidence that comes with money. Take money from an unbeliever you will realise how unbalanced their mind is in the midst of nothing. Moreover, I am not deceived by glitters, I believe the word of God that says- Romans 8 18 For I reckon that the sufferings(the entire world is suffering if we must compare it to the glory to come after the world) of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Their mind definitely react to haps and mishaps unlike a transformed believer who understand that all the world offers is but for a minute in God's eyes. A true believer maintain the same balance at all times regardless of plenty or nothing. Our confidence isn't in what the world offers but in God Himself. 4 Likes |

shdemidemi: The entire world is suffering, but in the midst of it all God's word says there is a benefit to be gained from it in this present world. I have asked you for such benefits and you have claimed having a balanced mind. I haven't even asked for the scriptures that said so but I mentioned 2 Non-christians that claimed they too have balanced minds. I can also mention Tibetan Monks, the Dalai Lama etc. All non-Christians who are not pertubed by the love or lack of money. So how can this be what Paul was referring to? Remember, it is God through his word that said there are benefits to be enjoyed in this present life. So it is not even a question of what the world has to offer but what God himself said. |

mbaemeka: I think its only natural for men to always want to know what they can gain. Peter was no exception- matthew 19:27 Then Peter said to him, "We've given up everything to follow you. [size=24pt]What will we get[/size]?" Jesus never said your bank account will increase, or you will build a house or you will live forever. He said- 28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Whatever benefits we get in this present world, they don't make a Christian ANY better than the next Satanist. If it were not so, this reductio ad absurdum by Paul would not make sense 1 Cor 15:19 (KJV) If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. Here is Paul comparing a Christian's present life to a non believer. Anything Christians claim, you find it in abundance among heathens be it your long-life, health, wealth....with perhaps exception of spiritual warfare mbaemeka: 4 Likes |

My brother, Paul is raising a hypothetical question to show the Corinthians the folly of their NOT believing in resurrection. This is Paul's argument starting with these three premises; 1. There is no resurrection 2. ALL the benefits of being a Christian are realized in this life 3. Christians do not fare ANY better than non-Christians in this life CONCLUSION There is no point of being a Christian. The first premise is wrong. This is reality; 1. There is resurrection 2. NOT ALL the benefits of being a Christian are realized in this life 3. Christians do not fare ANY better than non-Christians in this life CONCLUSION Despite 3, there is hope for Christians; resurrection where full benefits of resurrection will be realized so you have every reason to remain in CHrist What the wealth,health and long-life advocates are telling you is that even if there was no eternity/resurrection, there are enough reasons to be a Christian. Paul is saying the opposite. Who is right? Bidam: 3 Likes |

Bidam: You were the first to ask a question. When you did it was not frivolous in your eyes. Then when a response came to your question it became frivolous and you suddenly don't have time for such. What do we make of that? You are the one actually detracting from the focus of the original issue. By moving away from whether the Christian's benefits are in the here and now to asking proof about those who teach whatever you're engaging in your usual roller coaster game. 6 Likes |

shdemidemi: I also believe that true peace and joy is in christ alone. But not just true peace and joy: true wealth, true prosperity, true health, true wisdom, true security etc. They can only be found in Christ. So when you tell people that they can get all but the first two from the world, you are teaching a false message because Christ also gives the rest and a plethora of scriptures say so. 1 Like |
