Christ’s Kingdom Economy

In the economy of God’s kingdom the greatest among its inhabitants are decidedly the least. The weakest among them are to be glad because they are ideal candidates in whom God’s glory will be shown; and they get to taste of His power and strength as He works it in them. The ammasing of things is resisted and joyful giving is pursued which brings an altogether different kind of treasure.

If a teaching has us believing our best life now is found in earthly success, health, riches, prestige, prosperity, security, etc. then it is not a teaching representing the Christian kingdom of God described in the Bible. It must be rejected. How many claiming Christianity while spewing such garbage is almost hard to believe. God protect us from the many wolves teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach!

The poor in spirit will see God, the humble and meek will be blessed and receive grace. The mourners will be comforted. Those who love God do not love the world system and what it offers – no, they will be despised by it. The world hated Christ and it will hate His ambassadors.

Be strong and courageous. Be bold and gentle. Proclaim truth and do not compromise. Shine light in the darkness. Make good use of the law which drives sinners to the gospel. Amen.
