If you read futher in the bible it also says and having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.
1 Samuel 2:7 NLT
The LORD makes some poor and others rich; he brings some down and lifts others up.
1 Timothy 6:8 NKJV
8 And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.
If you obey 1 timothy 6:8 and are content with having food and clothing then it doesn't matter if you have 100 million in the bank or nothing in the bank. As long as you have food and clothing your happy.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
If you seek the kingdom of God everything will be added to you. clothes, food shelter, the flash sport car for some, for others it may be a bicycle with no brakes or seat lol.
the first thing you need to do for seeking the kingdom of God is to understand where your at.
romans 3:10
As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one;
this means there isn't a person who is good.
romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
everyone has done sin. either stealing, lying, jerking off to porn, sex with the worker girl who your not married too or all 4 things and more many times.
John 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Jesus Christ is the Son. God sent Jesus to save everyone who believes in what he did for everyone.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
1 coriathians 15 3-4
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
thats the gospel. Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose on the third day. Believe that Christ died for your sins, was buried and he rose on the third day. and you shall not perish and you can go to heaven. Simple as that.
proof of God.
People lie.
People steal.
People cheat.
People have sex not in marriage.
God doesn't lie. He says people will do all these things in the bible which is his word. I see and hear of people doing these things everyday. heck i've even done these things. I personally have experienced these things that God said people or I would do.
I probably heard Gods name spoken in vain at least a dozen times today. Bible also explains that people will do that too. Bible is Gods word. Seems to be a pretty honest God is.
how much proof do you want?
