Those who work hard, a positive outlook, maintain themselves and their families, are resourceful ... will likely be healthy and abundant.
The farmer who idles away doing not much will have a bad crop. The farmer who is responsible and diligent, mends his fences, ploughs well, keeps his equipment clean and proper and minds the livestock ... will likely do well.
Except in case of disaster of course, and then maybe some kind of metaphysical excuses might come into play!
> Except in case of disaster of course, and then maybe some kind of metaphysical excuses might come into play!
there's a particularly distressing variation of this kind of belief that, upon hearing news that a terrible disaster has stricken a distant country, killing tens of thousands, concludes that those victims must necessarily have deserved such a fate -- by not living life according to the well-understood principles, or not worshipping the correct god.
that conclusion is perhaps a reasonable and logical one given belief in enough axioms like "there is an omnipotent god", "if we live a certain way god will reward us", "the universe is generally fair".
This happens, but it's barely a thing.
I've never seen or heard of such a thing in real life, it's something you only hear about on CNN.
Services in mainline Churches don't really ever go into this kind of thing, the congregation would find it as wacky as you or I would.
