As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I would that the miser rich would give away all they have, so they could experience the want that I do and know for the first time in their lives what self indulgent and self serving anti God sinners they are by their observations and interactions with their rich friends, who would get that contemplative expression they now have, as they contemplate how poor they are......how they do not want to associate with their former poor "friend" and then "generously" give them 100 dollars and think that is a great sum to live on for the next seven years.
The reading the Holy Ghost provided today is from a rich man in the Bible named Job. God allowed satan to bring Job to death's door and allowed his friends to appear and blame him for his fall into sickness and poverty, for the purpose of a trial which was insane, as Job searched for answers why as one of the few good rich people in the world, "He must have done something to deserve it".
The answer never came, because Job had not been like rich people. In Chapter 31 which is the reading today, Job states plainly about rich people and their money.
24If I have put my trust in gold
or called pure gold my security,
25if I have rejoiced in my great wealth
because my hand had gained so much,
26if I have beheld the sunc in its radiance
or the moon moving in splendor,
27so that my heart was secretly enticed
and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth,
28this would also be an iniquity to be judged,
for I would have denied God on high.
Did you get that my rich brats?
Each of you trust in your finances for your security. Each of you rejoice at how clever you are to have become rich. Each of you thinks of yourself among the stars as you are so wonderful. And each of these things you worship with you as the core is INIQUITY.
Iniquity in Hebrew in this wording is AWON or OAVOWN, meaning guilt, perversity, evil. The very stuff that makes up the entirety of satan now.
It is evil to displace God with you, the money He gave you to serve Him by caring for others and thinking you made it, and to uplift yourself like satan as a creature on high, taking God's place.
Yes, that is not the smiling face of your enabling preachers you dole donations out to, in order to get that special greeting, special smile, that special notice you protest you never wanted mention of in public, but you relish that worship of others and you lust for the assembly to know how you judge in this world what you ration out funds to as the demagogue you are as you have had years of practice at this receiving adoration and you love it. You love treating people like animals in your pasture you can gaze out upon. You are the essence of the lords and priests of the cartel, dispensing the vax to those you choose to live or die for profit.
You have denied God and now you protest in your heart in how you have not practiced this, yet when Jesus White Throne Judgment prevails, when Christ states about that 10% of the money He gave you as a tithe, and you have not provided that, your case is closed and your name in the book reads as GUILTY.
There are very few Faithful Christians and even fewer cheerful givers. You have the burden of condemnation in your bank accounts. You have gathered where you have not worked and you have shut the gates on the suffering because there was nothing in it for your vanity.
The hours are passing by in the life God gave you. The End Times are churning to rend out the refuse and reprobates who have stored up riches. You will ignore the warning again and the next time you blink you will be dead and there is not one investment that you are going to take with you. It will be on earth taken by others even if you think you have a last will, and you will not be on earth. You will be the rich man with Lazarus, parched of the Living Waters and seeing Paradise afar off.
