I think you missed my point: xX-Angel-Xx is like a flimflam man. He will lie to you to entice the Innocent, because the end justifies the means. People like that do a disservice to Christianity. They promise riches, and when people take them up on it, they are often let down by reality. Even your god doesn't want this life to be easy. How would he have followers that truly loved him, if they were only there for Earthly riches?
As I say, Gods will doesn't always include people getting earthly riches, some people will believe and turn out poor, some may even die poor.
People should be honoured simply for Gods intent on bringing you closer to him, his trials. Fruits of the spirit, Spiritual Gifts are supposed to be mans aim overall, but we should be thankful when God gives us earthly riches.
The man who gets everything given to him should be careful where he's stepping, he has had alot of responsibility put on his shoulders. As Jesus said, it's hard for the rich to enter heaven.
Even then, there is nothing wrong with asking God for earthly riches, but that's another story.
He opened doors in my life. I haven't had to worry about money for a long time. He's given me academic progress. He's been a comforter when I faced loneliness in the world. He's given me strength to withstand rejection, it's tough I tell you. He's increased my witnessing opportunities. He's given me strength to overcome Nightmares; I can remember a lot of times falling asleep and experiencing circulatory shortages, It's as if the enemy wanted to take my life but he couldn't. He couldn't take Christ away from me. I have a pigment disorder called Vitiligo that takes away the color from my skin, he's given me strength to endure the hardship. He's given me the strength to be a MAN when I felt like a FREAK and be there for the people I love. I don't have a girlfriend yet, this is a daily struggle for me, I want to have the desires of my heart one day. I believe he can do it, because he's done it before. Thanks for letting me share my testimony on this thread.

Do atheists not have academic progress?
Do atheists suffer from loneliness to then find the inner strength to go on?
Do atheists overcome Nightmares?
Do atheists endure hardship?
Do atheists find the strength to be a man?
Do atheists have people who love them regardless of their faults?

Actually it answered the question posed in the first post quite nicely.
But it is like saying that Santa Clause gave me this or that, when people who do not believe in Santa Clause get the same things.
Also this is a debate forum, so threads like this one should have been closed a long time ago. How do you debate this?

You can't, that's a good point. But in this case I don't think he was looking for a debate, just information.
