God or Ouima?
Chris, one of the church elders, believes that World Eternal (WE) must be connected to God since they are giving the people of Earth so many good things. Preacher James knows that God is the giver of all good gifts (James 1:17). He also knows that God hasn't said we will have peace and prosperity just because we are Christians. In fact, Jesus said we would be persecuted for following Him (John 15:20, 21). Will church members turn from God to accept Ouima's gifts?

James thought for a minute before answering. “Did God promise us world peace? Did He say He would give us financial prosperity? Has he told Christians they will always have good health? No. We ask God for them, yes, but He has never promised those things.
