As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
The Holy Ghost led me to a Bible reading a few days ago, but I am only getting to it now. It comes from Deuteronomy chapter 15.
The secret of making money is poor people. The secret of not losing your ass in the stock market is poor people. In fact, poor people according to God are the secret in how you become rich and how you stay rich. As most will be greedily scoffing at the above statements, the Bible is quite specific in this.
The synopsis of verses 7 through 10 teaches, that when you see a poor person that is before you, that you are not to turn your back on them or grab your wallet tighter.
God says that you are to give liberally from what you have. He says lend but that context is the Old Testament where every person was expected to pay things off in six years of labor and for the person doing the lending to forgive all the debt in the 7th year. There were not any 30 year mortgages making people slaves their entire life. It kept the rich from being inflated rich and the poor deflated poor.
That is what verse 9 warns Christians against and all people, to not be playing the edge in thinking, when I give to that person, they are not going to ever pay me back. That is what it means in the 7th year context.
There is also power in this bestowed by God on the poor. Poor people who are slighted and treated badly, have every opportunity to bring you rich people before God to complain about how stingy you are. That then is counted as sin in it basically breaks every Commandment in not obeying God and not caring about other people in the FULL CONTEXT of how they should be cared for.
And here is the promise from God. God blesses the cheerful giver. By the rich giving to the poor, the rich will be empowered by God in all their actions, deed and work, in everything you try, you will find success.
So in review of this first part, God says He will hear the poor complaining about how stingy rich people are, but when rich people provide for the poor in not meager peanuts, the rich are empowered in all they do for success and profit.
7 If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:
8 But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.
9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.
God always has the poor in the land as the greatest stumbling block of the rich. There is the one reality that the life of the rich records, and that is before Christ the books are opened and how stingy, meager and miserly they were in their lives.
God does not say, "Give it charity". God says when you see someone who needs help, you are responsible to help them as they are before you.
This expands then in rich people who employ others. The correct employer is one when the time comes who assists that employee in further advancement, and does not send that loyal worker out with a cheap bottle of whiskey.
The words are furnish them liberally. The person is a HEBREW, not a foreigner, meaning the person is a poor person of your nation, and you helped them by giving or by a job, and when they were ready to advance, the rich person provides for them liberally, remembering how that loyal worker profited them and made their lives better.
And every rich person is to remember that either they were poor, or their grimy forefathers were down in the gutter, where they were given opportunity by God to advance, and produce miserly inheritors who have to reminded they are facing hell fire Judgment.
11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
12 And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:
14 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.
Finally, God informs the rich people that everything they think they have, is not theirs but is all God's. God requires from them the first profits from them. It is an easy requirement where the profits are celebrated before God in a feast with all of your family to remember God is the One who brought the success.
And when it comes to crippled animals or profits which are questionable, you are not to place that before God. That goes before your house to answer for in your meals and portion. You can not stop animals that are not free from being crippled, but you certainly can stop ruining others to get rich.
19 All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
20 Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
21 And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.
22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
That is the secret for making money. It is an economic system which America was built upon. Henry Ford did it in providing his workers a good wage and he made millions in being fair. The rich are responsible for providing to the poor, the poor who are doing work, as the poor have the weapon of naming rich misers before God which is recorded as sins against God, and God then takes everything from health to wealth from the rich, instead of empowering these rich people to further success and riches for caring for the poor.
That is what the Holy Ghost was speaking to me about.
