Christianity today!!!

Like I’ve always said I’m not Mr. know all or something but this time around I want to share my thoughts on a few issues relating to Christianity today and beyond. First of all what is Christianity? I believe it is to live with reference to Jesus Christ, to use him as a role model, as a standard or yardstick to help us live right and fulfill our duties as children of God Almighty.
Before that we always find people praying to GOD asking Him for financial breakthroughs and what not… What these people fail to do after praying is to look for a job or if they have one already raise their standards of working to more appraisals and thus be in the league of promotion lists. The same God we ask of these things said in His word that he that does not work must not eat, why would he then contradict His own words by giving you free meals and money, I mean just you who prayed for that (and you’re not His only child) no what He does is open a way for you to work harder and gain more money into your pocket and not spoon-feed you.
Another issue, I’m not judging here just my opinion so nobody should take it personal. Who knows what the main objective behind Christianity is? Is it for luxury or power, fame, miracles, prosperity or what? To me I believe that the basis of every preaching, ministry or outreach should be about the death of Jesus Christ and its significance to our salvation, period. The Bible says seek ye first the kingdom of heaven and all things (money, happiness, miracles, prosperity) shall be added onto you. It saddens me to find out that most, if not all Christians today focus on wealth and miracles rather than the true word of God which is about worshipping Him.
