(82,849 posts)1 Cor 8:15, quoting Ex 16:18.
Curiously, this is not a passage emphasized in every church or congregation. But in those that do emphasize these verses (along with Acts 4:34-35), there is a curious absence of the preaching of the so-called prosperity gospel.

(2,965 posts)...all they hear in their head is "blah, blah, blah...blah, blah...". I don't think they'd understand it. It would be like hearing a foreign language they don't speak.
