Money is the Problem - What's the Solution?
Money serves a valuable purpose as legal tender. The problem is not the
money, but the people who make the money, so that all money becomes mammon of
unrighteousness. All money is stained by the sin of men in its printing.
There is no solution to this problem except one (see below).
Each government has people in control that print money more than it should be or
less than it should be. In so doing, they can profit by the printing of that
money, anticipating inflation or deflation. When you flood an economy with money
faster than the economy is growing, it increases prices generally or to some
specific asset class and cause that currency to fall relative other governments
of other nations.
Nations will use the USA dollar less and less because it has attached to it over
8 trillion dollars that has to be paid back, which causes the currency to fall.
The only way to keep the dollar up relative to other currencies is to stop
printing it as fast as other countries print their currencies.
The problem is we have no idea what the Bush administration will do, or the
next president, or the one after that. I don't know who the corporations are
behind the Federal Reserve, but it doesn't matter anyway. They will always try
to manipulate the currency to our detriment, and they will never let us know
ahead of time. They no longer quote the M3 money supply figure.
There will be 3 major currencies: the EU, Dollar and an Asian-Pacific.
This matter is so complicated, how do you put controls on the administrators of
a country's currency? It seems like an impossible task. The Great Tribulation
will come to solve this complicated problem so that Christ as the Head will rule
from the Temple in Jerusalem and declare no more money! The Great
Tribulation will first wake everyone up to the fact that money is the problem.
Then people will listen to Christ when He speaks about the solution. He will be
believed for His words are so full of power and truth!
Jesus will say whatever you do now, you must do it without money. If you are
going to manufacture 1 million widgets, do it because it will help others as
others help you by giving you the supplies to make those widgets. Business will
be as usual except without money. How strange that will seem!
People are going to work in the millennium and do all the things they always
did, but without the crutch of money. Jesus will just declare that it is so, and
people can either abide in this truth or suffer the consequences as Jesus will
reign with an iron rod.
Do you think there is going to be money in the millennium? It will be outlawed.
Remember the world is already fallen apart where 1/3 of the people of the earth
die and the earth is scorched by nuclear holocaust. It will already be a mess.
How odd it would be for a ship merchant to travel from one country to another to
unload a shipment of goods and not receive anything in return. Eventually one
day that is how it will be. People will enjoy the work they do as their
contribution without desire for financial gain. People will talk to one another
to make it happen. They will have to. There is no choice, since money is
outlawed.
Does it seem like to you it would take a million years before we could actually
treat each other this way? Do you really think Jesus is going let sin go on for
a million years? How absurd! The season is near, and by season I mean sometime
this century the signs appear that Christ will return in Person, and all will
know it! Guess what else goes away? Taxes. If there are no revenues, then there
are no taxes.
How then can there be accountability? How is the accountability measured for
Christ to reign with an iron rod? Since God knows all things, nothing is hidden.
No matter what you do or don't do, He will know it. He knows every single hair
on your head. Is this really so hard to believe?
Those who still refuse God's way, will suffer the consequences. God's wrath will
come upon them. Even many in the millennial kingdom will be unsaved for they
just won't believe in God of the Bible, even still, even after all its proofs
are unfolded; that is to say, the whole Bible will be fulfilled up to Revelation
20 (millennium-last 1000 years on earth). Only Revelation 21 (new city and the
new earth) will yet be unfulfilled during the millennium.
How can someone not believe after Christ returns? It's not really a mystery at
all. Satan knows Jesus is God, yet still he rebelled. So shall it be in the
millennium. Though many know Jesus is God, they will want to still find ways to
exalt themselves above Him. There will still be yet some hidden sin in the
millennium. This is mostly private hidden away sin in the recesses of the minds
of men, but God knows!
In the millennium, everyone will just give to one to another what is needed.
Sounds like fantasy right? It's not. By the authority of Christ and His power to
reign He will demand this of everyone.
Know that money is both a benefit and a problem. It causes us to transact more
efficiently. On the other hand it causes us to do things that are wrong for the
sake of having more money. The latter will always be the temptation. Money
will always be the mammon of unrighteousness. So it must be destroyed, for
at the end of the day, it is exceedingly inefficient.
People will play sports for the joy of the competition and love of the game, not
for the money. Sounds crazy right? It's not. It's just common sense. This will
never happen until Christ steps down on the mount of lives. Man will destroy
himself if Jesus does not return. Man will destroy himself with money if Satan
is allowed to succeed: Satan unifies the diversity of creation into the mammon
of unrighteousness.
It will not take more than 100 years for the implant to be perfected to control
men. If you take the mark you won't be saved. If it is forced upon you, you
won't lose your salvation if you believe. One may feel immobilized in knowing
all this is coming down the pike, but God gives us this foresight for a reason
because we are to reject it. Anyone who takes the mark willingly will be
delivered to hell. Is it so unreasonable that we are warned about this now? Is
not a little immobilization warranted to catch our attention to refuse the mark
of the beast? This time of testing to refuse the mark will seem almost
impossible to refuse because it will be forced on you.
