Of course, not all evil

8:15 AM Posted by Tyler Kelly

Of course, not all evil Of course, not all evil! (Verso 2000) Saint - Paul wrote a letter to a young Christian, and says that the Root of all evil is the love of money. (I Timothy 6:10) This is an amazing love for claim.Perhaps too too much money, you could go Or perhaps we agree that it is the cause of Some problems ... perhaps many evils. But right and say that all the love for any amount of money is the cause of all evils is a bit 'so for most people to take.You only cite the verse as written in order to obtain a Reaction than the average churchgoer. Try and see if not to say something like 'It is the love of money, mind you, Not money itself. "They then tell you how to know many rich people who have done many things for God.What happens when you react like this? Let's Changes in the minor matter of clarity. Suppose someone said that drug abuse is ruining the West society, and retus a response indicating that this is not the drugs themselves, but that drug abuse is the problem. Suppose that they are going to inform you that they know many People who take regular medication, but I am confident these friends who are not employees, and that drugs does not affect their ability to live a happy, normal lives. Because think that the person would react in this way? There is a line of Shakespeare, who said: "Me thinks You protest too much. "In other words, when someone he feels very guilty about the truth in a statement, they tend to overreact, and this reaction (or "protest" too) actually gives guilt.Mode their translators of the Bible has had a problem with this ways, because they know that it is more offensive to the church People. The King James Version expresses the precision Thought of the passage. The original greek does not say that Greed is the root of all evils. How might translators soften and always avoid being accused of distorting the The original message? The Bible Society has had a Ingenious solution to the French today. They writes: "The love of money is a root of all evil." Apart from the dishonest use of the word "one", they technically used the word "all." The problem is that they used in a language that has a meaning that Rarely taken literally. "All kinds of" just "a lot". She does not mean "all" in all.Surely, if greed is the cause of all other evils, but should be the fundamental objective of a campaign to save Justice in the world. It 'obvious that if we could free the world of the root of all evil, and the possible result would be a world without evil in this area at all. But where is the church, denomination, religion or who is Conduct such a campaign against greed? The truth is that the whole subject of greed, and especially greedy (presumably the rich) get a very slight religions everywhere.But starting with the approach most 'popular for this transition, which is that for one reason or another, Paul did not mean what is recorded as said I Timothy 6:10. To say that the love of money (while harmful if exaggerated) is not all that bad, and certainly not the Because of all the problems of the world. We assume that I slipped Timothy 6:10 passage in the Bible error, or was placed there by a too zealous monaco in the early days of church.If that is the case, then we expect the object to delete. We should not be embarrassed by other steps to promote Such teaching extreme. We certainly do not find Jesus or the apostles, the teaching of such nonsense. The Battle between good and evil would be more than one between God and the devil, perhaps with something similar pride or a desire for power (not greed) is the true source of evil in the world.In the Gospels, Jesus tells us that we have a choice between good and evil, and we can not "serve" the two "Masters". The image is that of an employee or official, try to work for employers or two owners in the same time.Presumably an employer would be God, and the other Would be the devil. Right? But no, this is not the way Jesus Described. They say that God is an employer, but said that the other employer (wait for it) the money, or "Mammon" (Mammon is a term which also has money includes material things that money can buy). Jesus said that we can not work for God and work for the money Same time. (Matthew 6:24 and Luke 16:13) How amazing! It 'goes without saying that we will end up or down Hatred, an employer or the other. Between this approach and that adopted by Paul, there is no place for a person Be neutral, either in God or in the field of Money. We are going through love and hate Other. This is not a question of love a little 'more another, but rather a matter of putting them in front of end of spectrum.One will be our God, and the other will be our Worst enemy. We must choose.It is compatible with the image of an employee to prove working for two employers simultaneously. The employee is Course for an employer to cheat Tu to work for others. His "hatred" for fraud the employer must take the form of trying to wrest wage for something he or she has no right to.Could is that many religious people try to rip off, or asks something of God (eteal life), unless Really good? The immediate issue that we face respect to this problem is the widespread belief among Christians profess that we are not faced something to have the right to life eteal. Salvation, they say, is our "right", we are entitled to, or if we have never Work.But This is absolutely false. The most closely, that all agree that salvation through faith. And most of them will say that this faith must be placed in Jesus Christ. So how have faith in what Jesus said to work for God, rather than work for Money? For this question, as have confidence in all that Jesus instructed his disciples to do? Jesus said that if you stop working for Mammon, or material wealth (John 6:27) and begin to work for him (Matthew 11:29), it will be treated as an employee attempted to pull the most powerful of the employer Universe. He said not to worry about food and clothing, And how to do it (Matthew 6:25-33), and first try to build multinational kingdom of God Instead. He said that if we do, God Himself Caring for our material needs. He said that we should abandon all our material possessions, if we want to be one of its Disciples. (Luke 14:33) This was done with the church and other how to challenge the root of all evil? They told us that all these teachings of Jesus and Paul media little more than we should try to moderate our greed. It is OK to spend your life if you could make money your family and do not engage in anything immoral or illegal to do so, and if you make a point to give a Percentage of it in church. "Abandonment" of wealth, they say, just a little 'to share with the right people, time time.There is a type of mythical image in a church incredibly greedy person full of swimming in the pool Diamonds and the money itself disappears as a Act of worship. Church people must not know that wants to be like that person.On other hand, is a record in history Institutional throughout the church (all denominations) to Ever to be excommunicated because too Greedy? The truth is that absolutely excessive greed can be Tolerated by every church throughout the world. Until we are break a short list of other rules, you can swim in all is the love of diamonds, and only between you and me, the most diamond is, the more they are welcome in profusion You! Precisely because of this reluctance to abandon greed for wealth and the attack, the church has been largely Inefficient to save the world. The love of money in the world caused wars, exploitation of the poor, has led to drug trafficking, Corrupt politicians, and much more. And the love of money the church has made it virtually useless in the church the evolution of current trends away from God each day, the world enriched material, but is growing every day more and spiritually.In poorest from the middle of the Sermon on the Mount, and at the center His speech on greed, Jesus said: "The eyes are like a Fire to the body. If your eyes are clear, your whole body be full of light, but if your eyes are bad, your body will be in Darkness. Thus, if the light is in you is darkness, how Terribly dark it will be! "(Matthew 6:22-23, TEV) In other words, if the church, and Christians can not do clear regarding his teachings on money, Jesus is Are not only unnecessary, but will be seen as participants in the "terrible night" that the world yesterday it was found that the teaching of money is the key to Understand the conditions of life. In this same chapter that Jesus refers to King Solomon, which was estimated at have been the wisest person on earth when it was said that alive.Jesus Solomon with all his wealth, was not as beautifully dressed as God took the flowers fields.In another place (Matthew 12:42), he refers to a story that is recorded in the tenth chapter of I Kings, when he says that Queen of Sheba to come halfway around the world to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and yet "more than Solomon is here. " We are accepting this teaching Jesus on money, the key to discover the wisdom Salomon, barely scratched the surface of.The last book of the Bible continues with the theme of good And evil. It describes how a male prostitute (Revelation 17:5) And a good wife (Revelation 19:7). Both women who give what our mode society has come to call "love", but a The free, while others money.Artists not often talk about "prostitution" if they can Greed to influence their work. And each of us does the same thing when we use the life and the gifts God has given us, to make money, rather than the use of freely shared and its message of faith and love with the world of prostitution is a name. It is called "Babylon." The name symbolizes all empires in the world of men History. Babylon, in particular, is best known for Coined money. They did not invent greed, greed, because there is also in the days of barter, but they did invent a much more efficient for people to meet their greed.Gold pieces were the first form of money, but has since through various forms over the centuries that the rich have become increasingly rich.The revelation of God is like a "lamb", which loses his life to save the world (Revelation 5:6). The antithesis of this poor lamb sacrificed to the war is a "beast". The beast is represented by a "brand", which is finally set the back of the hand all over the world or on the forehead, and without it they will not be able to buy or sell (Revelation 13:16-18). This is the final step in the evolution of money, and it was prophesied in the Bible about 2000 Years! It is gradually becoming common knowledge that the world this time in history that when the prophesied Marco will be in circulation worldwide, as a Chip plant in the back of the hand (or If your hand was earlier amputee). People will be measure the wave of the hand in front of a scanning electron transfer funds from one account to another in rapid The "cashless society". This is not a fanatic delirium. It 'still together. You can read about this almost everywhere in the secular Press.The Bible says that anyone who accepts the fact that Mark will be Eteally damned. (Revelation 14:9-10) This is the church conceed about this? The meetings are necessary to adapt their financial structure in order to survive Without taking? Of course not. In fact, if the subject is to all, is quickly followed by arguments in favor of Marco, and against those who see evil. The root of all mal institutional church led directly into the hands Prince of Darkness himself, and everything that has been the love of money to do it.There is a bit 'interesting to note in the passage of Revelation about the mark of the beast. He said: "Behold Wisdom. Who has heard the number of the beast, because the number of a man, and his number Is 666th "(Revelation 13:18) Here is wisdom. Wisdom has become progressively all consumers in order to my life from the first time I heard the King Solomon on a given application and how Called wisdom. I want to know the truth. Want to A sincere heart. I hunger and thirst after Justice. I want wisdom. This passage tells Me that I try to understand the meaning of number 666, if I want it.I have decided to take a huge Bible and concordance to see if the number 666 appears nowhere in the Bible. I found She. The number 666 appears in only one other Place, and, curiously, is the chapter Jesus alluded when he spoke of The wisdom of Solomon. E 'in I Kings 10:14 a.m.. This is the chapter that tells us that the Queen of Sheba brought gifts to Solomon, in retu for his public Wisdom. Others are also bearers of gifts. And in a year Solomon received 666 talents of gold in payment of Hearing, of his wisdom. See, Solomon had a kind of wisdom, But he used to make money. Jesus has a higher wisdom, which has seen through the myth of money. He saw that the love of money is the root of all evil.My search for the wisdom of Solomon began, but I take the ring back to Solomon. And the paradox is That back to Solomon, I discovered that it was the Counterfeiting of reality. Is there anything better than Salomon, and is the teaching of Jesus Lessons Jesus says that 666 talents of gold is useless (if is owned, in gold, cash, checks, shares, or electronic money), that faith in God and a handful of wild flowers Worth more. The teaching of Jesus say I can have all the riches of the world, be a powerful King, women around the world to listen to me, and yet I have nothing if I do not want to follow God Lessons Jesus said that the relatively short history of man race was a little 'more of an experiment to see if we spend our life working with the source of any good or if we spend our working lives To the root of all evil. Our eteal destiny is based on "teacher", we chose to work for.What I discussed in this article was the source of all Evil, and the "key" to destroy. There is so much One can say. But none of this will make us all less than we are ready to act on the truth of what Jesus said. Talking about our faith and love and sincerity in all crumbles Chat meaningless if we are ready, in obedience Creator of the universe, in tu, most of our heritage and devote our lives to help others and obedience to God ... without the thought of food or clothing.Dave McKay and his wife Cherry are co-founders of Jesus, the Christian communities, with bases in Australia, England, Kenya, USA and the community is to take literally teaching in the mode world.
