Introductions:
How is Life?
Life is defined as “Living in Fruitfulness Eternally”. Living without fruitfulness is just existence. A tree without fruits attracts no one. Wealth has colossal power of attraction. A “Really wealthy” “LIFE”; is Rich with contentment; true Peace; and has Rejoicing in abundance; being able to afford that which money cannot provide.
Some are rich but have no joy; because money cannot buy Joy. Proverbs 28 verse 20; says; a faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that makes haste to be rich shall not be innocent.
Some are not visibly riches but they have joy; because they live by faith. Romans 1 verse 17; says; therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith.
Some have both riches and joy; because Proverbs 10 verse 22; says; the blessing of the LORD, it makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.
Some have neither riches nor joy; because Psalms 1 verses 5-6; says; therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment or sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
