God doesn't favor the rich. The rich are just better at investing their money, which, of course,makes them more money. They then are able to hire people that will help them hide all that money from the government by setting up trust, and paying cash for everything so that there is no paper trail and claim only a quarter of what you are worth at tax time.

It's not God that favors the rich, it's people that favor the rich.

First God do not have a favor person,he love us all if it had not been for him you and I would not be here to day. You may think he favors the rich because they have money and you don't But the bible says(Soon the wealth of the rich and wicked is laid up for the just. If you have God then you should know that Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of
God and of Jesus our Lord to all men and women his divine powers has given to all of us things that pertain to life and godliness,through the knowledge of him who called us by glory and virtue.

God does not favor the rich. God gives us brains, and if people use their brains to get rich, good for them. But God does not favor the rich - we are all equal in His eyes. Think about that.

Actually my dear, there is a passage in the bible that goes : Woe to the rich, for they have already received their consolation.
So that is not true. What we do with our money ( rich or poor ) is what is judged. If you were rich and never had to worry about $$ again, would you devote your life to charity? I would I know I would. It is what you do with your LIFE that matters ~give what you can, do what you can, be good for the glory of God, consciously not sinning ~ these are the gifts we give to God.
He does not favor the rich, man does. God bless.
"Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar;
Give to God what belongs to God."
p.s. Besides the rich look lonely, you'd never know who liked you for $$ or u.

The rich understand how to find ways in which God 'favors' people. Those ways are there to find even for those you are not rich.

God favors all people. All his prophets have not been rich. So far in one part of the bible i have read the rich have gone to hell.

He doesn't- the rich favor the rich, they just tell everybody else that God favors them, and because of their supposed superiority, people tend to believe them.

It's an old saying I heard once.

Well, according to the Bible it would be easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle that a rich man into heaven. Perhaps he only favours rich women, as do I (not).
