@abcGMA3 'falsified' a #FaithFriday | @Aaron_Tredway @JesiStracham

I'm not sure if I'm using the right word for 'what they did'---when they did their story about "Wheel with Me" (a workout app for wheelchair users to gain more independence), but treated that story as if it were totally separate from the life that Aaron Tredway hopes you 'Don't Miss' (see the title of his book, offered through the bold text below).

Granted, most of their segment with Aaron was about 'focusing on Significance rather than Success'---with a Jesus-quote: "What will it profit a man if you gain the entire world, but destroy your soul?" (possibly interpreted 'Success isn't worth it if you don't enjoy the process of #Attaining it), implying that one should 'Seek First the Kingdom of Our Father--of Righteousness--and Enjoy Life.'

While the 'Wheel with Me'-segment was focused on the hard work it takes for some of us to manage our lives (the standard processes that become 'as natural as breathing' to the uninjured or the long-time recovered).

Their false implication is this: that "Faith" is all about 'knowing- and saying that you can do something (usually attributing that power to Our Heavenly Father, Our Anointed Brother, & The Authority of Their Commission),' while 'actually using that power (and showing its glory to all who can see (including That Holy Trinity))' is possibly "rebellion against Our Heavenly Father."

'That kind of Faith' (the idea that it's all about 'doing nothing but thanking God') is why I'm tempted to side with atheists when they point out how obviously-wrong Christian preachers are who cite The Storybook as "proof" against real-life evidence.

Luckily we have 'what I would say is the solid foundation upon which The Bible is built to stand true': James 2:14-26, regarding the insignificance of Faith if it doesn't bear fruit in Works.

The word “Attaining” is built on ancient words that mean "to Touch- (Handle-, Attack-, Strike-, Appropriate- or Manage) To."

just like #Attainment #Attain #Attained #Attains #Attainments #Attainings #Attainable

I would sum up that passage with its last verse, #James2Twentysix (tagging: #James226, #JamesTwoTwentysix, #JamesTwo26):

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so Faith without works is dead also. (NKJV)

Lining that verse up with some other translations,
