Christ can lead a person out of debt? WOW, how? I can go with being with me while I am in debt and being with me while my family is in crisis, but to suggest if I live right that I won't have family problems or face financial difficulties is a bad reading of the scripture. Why then do bad things happen to good people, comes the natural question? Because Christ didn't promise health, wealth, or any kind of prosperity, He promised a "full" read eternal life in Him. He says we will suffer. period.

As you mentioned, those promises of health, wealth and prosperity will come in Heaven with Him.:thumb:
