Why I don't pity Prosperity Fraud Victims
« on: October 14, 2014, 08:13:04 AM »
One stupid negro once quipped that people who get conned are almost always greedy and are lured by easy profits.
This is the premise of Hustle TV series

 and my all-time favorite 1973 The Sting


GREED is what attracts them to instant profits.
They give to God as investment and the hundred-fold returns are the bait

1 Timothy 6:9-10King James Version (KJV)
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.


Negroes,
there are no shortcuts in life and in the Kingdom
2 Timothy 2:4  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

Ignorance or selfishness

Let's define GREED
intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth, power, or food.

SELFISHNESS
(of a person, action, or motive) lacking consideration for others; concerned chiefly with one's own personal profit or pleasure.
And not 'Giving to God' what is it?

2 Timothy 2:4  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
