I'm currently unable to tap into the higher mental state and write a mindblowing work, nevertheless, that won't stop me from sharing an important lesson by a doctor and pastor Peters, in which he compared the two financial systems: Babylonian, and Biblical.
Needless to say, their priorities are contrary. Here are the basic differences:
a) In Babylonian economics, charging interests is not prohibited. In the Biblical system, charging interests is prohibited.
b) In Babylonian economics, gold is at the top, while human life is at the bottom. Merchants prosper while producers struggle. In the Biblical system, the Kingdom of God and human lives are at the top. Material wealth is secondary. Merchants do have an opportunity to prosper, but so do producers.
Here is an example of what the business looks like in the Babylonian system: sell pornography, vaccines, and pesticides, regardless of the adverse side effects. Now, that's a raw example of putting money before human life.
c) In the Babylonian system, men are putting the tenth aside for themselves. In God's system, we are commanded to tithe (give away 10% of your earnings to the source of the spiritual nourishment).
d) In the Babylonian system, both parents need to work in order to feed the family, yet, they barely earn enough to make the ends meet. In God's system, the father alone earns more than enough for the entire family to survive.
e) In the Babylonian system, children inherit their parents' (unpayable) debts, which all men are enslaved by. In God's system, the debt can't be inherited, and there are no unpayable debts.
The Bible says we are to seek the Kingdom of God, first, and "all these things", will be given unto us. People of the Babylonian mentality seek earthly pleasures (Matthew 6:31). They put materiality on the throne of life, while the righteous man is thankful in little things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. - Matthew 6:33
Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. - Luke 16:10
Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities. - Luke 19:17
Hopefully, a brief comparison of these two systems opened your eyes. To learn more, watch a video.
