    Scripture tells us that the meek shall inheret the Earth.

    My issue here is that "the meek shall inheret the Earth". But when? After we TrueChristians™ have already ascended unto the Kingdom of the Lord? Or are we to believe that at some point we will be subserviant to the "meek" while still here on terra firma? The point I am getting at is: Would it be in any way unGodly for people such as ourselves to amass large fortunes and assets, and then to conceal them as to impersonate the "meek"? It seems to me that hedging our Earthly bets would be in accordance with God's law, as the perception of "meek" would be in the eyes of fellow humans, not the Almighty. Thoughts?
    DO NOT ask questions! Just tithe. A LOT!

    Of course friend we TRUE Christians are meek; we give thanks to Jesus for His special favor to us but gifting these wonderful things to us. It is the useless losers the sinners who are a bunch of arrogant jerks that Christ is going to have His revenge on. That is why we are far better than they are. We are meek.

    Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

      I see, Brother T, that you're still suckling at the milk of the Word. Let me show you in scripture the true nature of True Christian(tm) meekness.

      And actually, it's like Brother BJ said -- True Christians(TM) know how to "be the hidden man of the heart" (First Peter 3:1), and in all their enterprises, they "let not [their] left hand know what [their] right hand doeth" (Matthew 6:3).

      Meditating on Christ's parable of the treasure hidden in the field will probably be helpful to you: "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field" (Matthew 13:44).

      In other words, meek-spirited True Christians(tm) hold their riches close, and then go out and make a killing. It's what we do here at Landover every day.

          Re: Scripture tells us that the meek shall inheret the Earth.

          After the apocalypse, we will all return to Earth after being kept save by God in heaven during the rapture. While the rest of the world shall be consumed in flames with the damned tortured forever within them, Jesus will build a perfect city on a hill called New Jerusalem, which will literally be heaven on earth, in which true meek Christians in their resurrected bodies shall rule over the world.

          Duh.
