The Gospel of Prosperity – Can a Believer be Successful and Remain Faithful to the Teachings of Sacred Scripture?

Treasurers on Earth: The Gospel of Prosperity
by Gerald Iversen

The “Gospel of prosperity” is the belief that God wants Christians to be financially rich. It is promoted by many conservative evangelists, especially tel-evangelists. This gospel appeals to people from various incomes. It confirms to the wealthy that their wealth is proof God loves them, and that it’s OK to pursue wealth, even to make it top priority. It appeals to the poor because it seems like a way out of poverty.

But, like Santa Claus, the gospel of prosperity is a lie for the poor. When poor children are good, Santa still does not come for them.

This new gospel teaches that poor believers are doing something wrong, which blocks them from God’s financial blessings. It’s a downward spiral: Perhaps the poor do not love God enough, or don’t have enough faith or are not giving enough money to support

BULLET #2 A Fresh Box of Bullets – Gary Bencivenga

(How to Load Up on the Ones You’ve Missed)

Dear Marketing Top Gun:
Claude Hopkins, the Aristotle of Advertising, once said:
“Advertising is much like war, minus the venom….We are usually out
to capture others’ citadels or garner others’ trade….We must have
training and experience, also right equipment. We must have proper
ammunition, and enough.”
Proper ammunition. Top Gun, if you want to be a marketing sharpshooter, you need the best ammunition you can get, which is why I have a special box of Bullets for you.
They are the Bullets you’ve missed—published before you subscribed. You can load up on them by visiting the Bullet Archive at the link below.
Go there now and you’ll discover:

• The Two Most Powerful Words in Advertising. (No, they are not “new” and “free” nor any other two words you’d ever guess.)
• The Secret of the Red Shirts. (This little-known technique makes it much easier to achieve anything you want in life, including blockbuster ad campaigns that

“Top Cat” Is Back In Town

Top cat, heres the embeded code

The Life of Herbie

Michael T. Smith

1769, in Yarmouth, Maine – a seed from an elm tree, carried by a gentle breeze, floated through the air and settled to the ground. Dry leaves quickly covered it. A warm rain fell. The wet leaves stuck to the ground. Like a womb, they protected and nourished. Under their cover, the tiny seed came to life. Small, vein-like roots reached into the earth and sought nourishment. A delicate sprout pushed the protective leaves aside. Little leaves unfolded and experienced sunshine for the first time. If a tree could smile, this fragile sprout would have.

Years passed. The elm grew at a startling rate of three to six feet a year. As it grew, so did its sense of awareness. The spreading branches acted like a satellite dish. They picked up the signals from near-by trees. The number of elms grew. Each one communicated with the others. They told

BULLET #1

The Credo Technique

Stand for something
and you’ll never stand alone.

Dear Marketing Top Gun:

Welcome to your first issue of Bencivenga Bullets, my complimentary e-letter about how to boost your response, online and off.

Tom Watson, Sr., the founder of IBM, said that to be great, a company needs a religion.

Good advice, too, for an e-letter like this.

So in this first Bullet, let me share my core beliefs about advertising, and you can see if they match yours.

First, I believe the purpose of advertising is to sell, not win awards or applause. This is why each Bullet will share a little secret of master salesmanship, applied to direct response advertising.

Second, I believe that a single measurement is worth a thousand opinions. That’s why these Bullets trade not in opinions, but proven strategies my clients and I have discovered by investing tens of millions of dollars in scientific direct response tests.

Third, I believe in selling with integrity. The strongest

1. The Miracle of Personal Development

Jim Rohn

One day my mentor Mr. Shoaff said, “Jim, if you want to be wealthy and happy, learn this lesson well: Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job.”

Since that time I’ve been working on my own personal development. And I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime.

You see, what you become is far more important than what you get. The important question to ask on the job is not, “What am I getting?” Instead, you should ask, “What am I becoming?” Getting and becoming are like Siamese twins: What you become directly influences what you get. Think of it this way: Most of what you have today you have attracted by becoming the person you are today.

I’ve also found that income rarely exceeds personal development. Sometimes income takes a lucky jump, but

Turning Point

Darren Hardy

[From SUCCESS magazine, January 2010 Publisher's Letter]
Ah, 2010, what a poetic-sounding number. We just finished the first decade of the new millennium—time to take an accounting.

Over the last 10 years, how’d you do? Are you living the life you envisioned for yourself? In 1999, when you were watching the ball drop for the new millennium, is this the life you pictured for yourself back then? Ten years ago did you think you would be richer and healthier, have a better marriage and more friends, experience more joy and have more peace of mind than you do now?

If so, it’s time for a turning point.

You’ve probably heard the definition of insanity—doing the same things over and over and expecting different results.

If you don’t want the next 10 years to be like the last, then now is the time to do something different.

Humans are unique. We are the only species who

As a member of the Grinninbarrett Band, I have shared a passion for music since I was a kid.  As a musician and songwriter, I, like my brothers,  have offered my own signature  to the sound of the Grinninbarrett collective.  Each of us owns our own unique perspective on rock and pop. The great thing about the project is drawing on a combination of these perspectives.  That’s our way of  keeping  it fresh and keeping it real.  My most recent offering, ”Winter” is available by clicking on the link below.
