...my God shall supply all your need according to his riches
in glory by Christ Jesus.
If a billionaire gives out of his riches, then he can buy you
a meal. If a billionaire gives according to his riches, then
he can buy you the restaurant!

Context is Important
1 + 1 = 10
Why would I put an incorrect equation on this blog?
Because the equation is correct if I tell you that the
context is base 2. You say you only use base 10! What
digital items do you own or use? Context is important!
Consider the following from 2 Peter 3:
In the last days blatant scoffers will come, being
propelled by their own evil urges and saying, “Where is
his promised return? For ever since our ancestors died,
all things have continued as they were from the beginning
of creation.” For they deliberately suppress this fact,
that by the word of God heavens existed long ago and an
earth was formed out of water and by means of water.
Through these things the world existing at that time was
destroyed when it was deluged with water. But by the same
word the present heavens and earth have been reserved for
fire, by being kept for the day of judgment and destruction
of the ungodly. Now, dear friends, do not let this one
thing escape your notice, that a single day is like a
thousand years with the Lord and a thousand years are like
a single day.
