What quote is correct in your opinion?

“The blessing of the Lord brings wealth and he adds no sorrow to it.”

Meaning, you will not be punished for the wealthy you have

/// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// ///

”The blessing of the Lord brings wealth without painful to it.”

Meaning money will come without humiliating or unpleasant work

The first one, I think. But wealth isn’t explicitly defined and there has to be more steps in the process, ie the Bible.

Pain often is part of work. When our muscles grow, it technically is from microscopic tears in our fibers. Any pain we might feel, is from a threshhold being breeched in our release of neurotransmitters making it’s way through our neural network all the way back to our CNS.

Neither, I think God said it best when he said "I help those who help themselves"

Let's walk through this. Typically this is seen as the prosperity gospel. What people don't see is that christ gave several sermons on this. As a believer you may be exceptionally blessed by the lord with houses and money. You may be poor and struggling to get by. Either way everything we have is not ours but it's the Lords to be used to glorify Him. Our job is to be stewards of the Lord. Let's talk about jobs, nowhere in the Bible does it say you will have an easy and nonhiliating job. However what is made clear is that what ever job we have, what ever job we do we do that job as if we are serving the Lord (as I'd he is our boss).

[MAC1983]

I prefer this one:

23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Matthew, 19, 23-24. King James Bible version.

Slightly different from what all those televangelists say, right?

Its not about what you have, its about how thankful you are for having it.

A rich or succesful person should be thankful, and not look down on people and instead try to help people in need. The same goes for a healthy person.

A poor person or a person with many hardships should be thankful and take it as a challenge to be better, to survive, be succesful

Everything is a test. Its about patience, positive attitude and thankfulness.

NONE! "Lord/Religion" doesn't bring you wealth, Bible neither... The only Wealth that you can get is The Power of Knowledge, all rest are just physical things that once u go 6ft under, you won't be taking Any with you!.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

I don’t think you’d be punished for having wealth at all, just for what you let it turn you into

[Sarahplus2]

Doesn't necessarily say money.
