Well, yeah. That’s a moral failing on their part as I’m sure you know. God wants us to be prosperous. Some dude prayed about it way back when and since the Lord answered his prayer it must obviously apply to us all. So if you’re sleeping on a train or getting shot at, you’re not right with God. It’s as clear as day. I don’t understand people’s willfulness. Just get right with God.

These people who insist on bringing up Job, who was blameless by God’s own accounting, just don’t understand faith. Yes, God allowed him to lose everything he had, including his family and didn’t intervene on his behalf. But there was a bet, you see. One little bet cannot compete with the power of prayer. Obviously. Anyway, when it was all said and done, he got a new family and new things so it was all good in the end. His new family was probably better than his old family.

This is not an example of God’s capriciousness. Nope. No way. A benevolent paternal God could not be capricious. That’s the sort of BS you expect from girls, bless their spiritually weak little hearts; not the heavenly Father.
