Godliness with Contentment: God’s answer to the Gospel of Gain,
From The Independent Conservative.
This is a great article I found from a blogger on the issue of Godly gain versus greed. It shines the light on the mis-conceptions that inaccurately interpret prosperity preaching into 'God will make me rich.' It also casts the light at the doors of 'we' the church and asks the question are we also sending out the wrong message and perhaps not accurately teaching the word in this area?
A good use of scripture i found to instruct, reprove and re-affirm God's intention in our lives for contentment and ultimately seeking His face and not His hand.

- About Covenant Jobseekers
- It is our firm belief that as believers and joint heirs with Christ, we are covered under a unique covenant which gives us access to the grace and favour of our God through Christ Jesus. This site is not intended to provide a 'quick fix' or remove the onus of responsibility from the individual to exercise their faith and walk with Jesus in order to fully understand and appreciate the many promises provided to us by His Word, but to edify and encourage one another during these times to hold firm to our faith, knowing that Abraham's blessings are truly ours.
Covenant's favorite quotes
"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me"."— Erma Bombeck
