What's Alla got to do with it? Alla, do you mean alibaba and the 400 million thieves or Allah in the mosque variety of God? Is Alla a magician who plays tricks on heathens?
Can't God be punished for insider trading, as he knows already what will happen in future? He probably can even manipulate the markets. What will God do if one person asks to let the market go up, while another one asks to let the market go down? Will he take the highest bidder?
Yes but the question is, will Jesus help traders through prayer? God is real, lives in peoples lives, answers prayers, wants people, in particular his chosen children to prosper. Prosperous people are more likely to be functional than dysfunctional. So why shouldn't a trader who prays to Jesus have an advantage? That is, unless the living breathing Jesus is a figment of peoples imagination, yes, no? Is there proof that Jesus Prayers are better traders, or should we just believe, have faith that it is so? Or maybe Jesus doesn't give a fig? Maybe prayer is just a total waste because who's to know what to pray about? Maybe praying not to die of Covid is also a waste of breath. Maybe the whole church shebang is bs.
Which Jesus are we talking about? The one I like was not in to money. He helped the poor and never demanded cash for medical or funeral stuff.
God works in mysterious ways, maybe He wants you to fail so you can 'learn a lesson'. Betya ya thought of that. Its like when someone dies, it was for a mysterious purpose to teach you about life.
I don’t think God wants his chosen people to prosper in worldly possessions so much rather he wants them to prosper spiritually. What the world has to offer is dung compared to what’s waiting. It would be nice to stay focused on God when times are good but most like to start patting themselves on the back and wonder why we need Him in the first place.
Right, like an insurance policy, pay upfront (with Godly behaviour) and get paid later. Problem is life's a bitch, insurance co. will do their utter best not to pay. Now these God promises of eternal life, there are a gazzillion churches about (specially in the bible belt) and everyone preaches a different version. "Not a problem....." you say "The church I go to has the message right, all the rest are slightly screwed up".
So why is spiritual life more important than physical life? What good is 'spiritual' when living in substandard conditions. Why walk around with all this holy moly God mumbo jumbo twirling through your brain and be physically dysfunctional. If you were to work for me as an employee, I could promise to pay you in bible lessons. Yeah, sound like a good deal because worldly possesions are inferior to spiritual possesions.
