Sometimes when you meet with some people who believe that the gospel must end in prosperity, whom you know have been over-indoctrinated into the gospel of prosperity, you just can’t help but wonder where you will start to preach the true gospel to such persons. The truth is no matter what you tell them, they will never believe in your saying that the end result of the gospel is not...
