Many Christians disagree with the "Your Best Life Now" and the "Health, Wealth, and Prosperity" theology—or at least they say they do, but they sure do not live like it.
If you know anything about humans, human behaviour, and the human mind, if you pay attention to any of it in the least, you know precisely how mankind operates. For example: As soon as a preacher says that it is not wrong to have money or to own possessions, which is true, what is the first thing people start to do? Accumulate (or try to accumulate) these things for themselves. They are self-seeking, trying to enhance their fleeting vapour-of-a-life in this world even though it is not their home, they are just passing through, and they cannot take it with them when they die.
What was it that Acts 2:45 and 4:32 had to say? There are countless dozens of other passages I could pull out here, but the rebellious and disobedient will only push them to the side or try to weasel out of them by some way or another. Some of the happiest and most fulfilled people on the planet are those who have very little to their name. Do you believe the Bible? Do you obey it? Or do you secretly believe, and clearly live out, "Your Best Life Now" and the "Health, Wealth, and Prosperity" theology by your daily actions?
For these individuals, the words of Christ have fallen upon deaf ears.

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Matthew 6:19-21
