The money power preys on the nation in time of peace, and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolvent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes! Abraham Lincoln Comment: The Apostle Paul did not say money was evil but if you love it then you become evil! We are to love God! Anything less is sin! President Lincoln was identifying the root cause of slavery in America! The love of money! The love of money keeps abortion going today in America just as it did for slavery! The love of money keeps the drugs flowing across our southern border! Sin continues from generation to generation only because man is in love with himself and not God and will sacrifice anything or anyone to acquire wealth! Would you sell out or betray Jesus for thirty pieces of silver? Wealth can also be acquired honestly! Our capitalistic system is based upon through work and creating products and services that people need and want! The failed socialist states around the world take the earned wealth of the workers and give it to those that will not work! That is theft! God works and did that to create this world and he expects us to do the same and work to maintain the Blessings he has given us! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
