And then some dummy comes along thinking that this whole thing was supposed to be a bout a kingdom NOT of this world.

What a sap! So stupid! All of those "elders" who assured me that they knew more than I did and that they cared more about the kingdom then I ever could... they're sunning themselves in Florida right now on the money that I helped to line their pockets with.

Meanwhile I'm trying to explain to my wife and kids that maybe we shouldn't be giving $1,000 a month to a church and not putting a dime into any savings. But I just don't "trust God..." Wrong. God is trusting us - but we're just plain stupid.
