"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up."
Why do so many Christians claim they are doing this but then argue against God when confronted with His words from the Bible?
Submitting to God is not just something we say, it is something we do because we love Christ. Just "saying" something has no power at all. Those prosperity preachers have had more influence than we realize when most of the population "say" more than they "do" because they are satisfied with pretending rather than "being."
