Would you rather be a millionaire now for the rest of the years of your life or stay faithful and as you are, but, have faith that through God you will have instead an everlasting life in paradise instead of the money?

It so easy..
I will Choose GOd... Because he provides!! so he will provide me with riches...
Think of King Soloman.. he will be a multi-billionaire if he's living at our age!! and the reason why Christ is Poor is because he become poor so that we can be rich!!
i don't understand why people think that Christian has to live poor?? If we only think of riches and put money above him,then that's wrong...but if you are full of GOD and his WISDOM,i am sure he will provides.. How to glorify him and and help the others when we can't even have enough?? HOwever, if the riches make you vain, proud and arrogant, then maybe God will give you something else??
But if i really have to choose only one.. it will still be GOD!!! money is not everything!!
and since i can't not bring the money to my grave.. so what if i am rich???

Eternal values are more important, life is just a temporary assignment, we are not here forever and you can't take money with you. What is the point in having money if it's not to help others? I for one would rather be rich in my faith than in my pockets.
Matt 19:21-24
21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
(KJV)

I'm used to being broke..so I would have to stick with God. My life as a millionaire would be short..but the afterlife..that's forever

I stay with God in Christ Jesus, there is not enough money on this earth, in this dimension to separate me from the love of the Living God!
What you're asking is like someone asking you will you sell your Father knowing your father owned everything in this earth and more!!

Neither. I don't want the trouble of having an irrational amount of money now. And I do not want to waste my life believing in a dream, and bound to be manipulated for that.

The love of money is the root of all evil.
Compassion and forgiveness toward others will bring riches in heaven

Tough question?
Easy answer: faith in the love and mercy of the one true God, and salvation thru His Son, Jesus.

Not a tough question. Money does not buy you happiness. I'll take God over money any time.

I rather be with god . Because money don't last forever, and god would be with you no matter what, as long as you ask for forgiveness
