Unrighteousness Money

October 27, 2023

(Luke 16:9) And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habits. ~ This passage is a passage that Christians are familiar with! Why do pastors keep discussing whether "money" is righteousness every time they mention this passage? Or is money unjust? Of course money is unjust, there is nothing to discuss! And trying to turn "money into righteousness" is "distorting the truth"! Why has America become what it is today? It’s just a bunch of people who “focus on money”! While the pastors are turning money into righteousness, they already only have eyes for money! In the eyes of American politicians, "only money" is in their sights! Just like Trump has given the American people the wrong concepts: Only politicians with money have the support of the people! Therefore, American politics has become "black gold politics"! If you want to enter American politics, you must have a rich sponsor! It is impossible to enter the political arena without financial backers! Therefore, the American political arena has become a place where capitalists raise dogs! Capitalists throw some dog food to politicians, and those unscrupulous politicians work for the capitalists and harm the people!


The most important thing about this passage is not "whether money is righteous or unrighteous." This passage asks us: How to use "money" to enter the eternal tabernacle? If we only discuss "money righteousness and unrighteousness", I can only say: You underestimate the wisdom of Jesus! How to use money to enter the "Eternal Tabernacle"? This is a very important concept that Jesus taught us: Values! Why is our world so twisted? Because our world gives us "wrong values"! "Wrong values" can ruin a person's life! Let me say it again: "Wrong values" will ruin a person's life! In our modern world, more and more people are living for money! They work hard all their lives to make money. Why do they work to make money? Because they have been pursuing a better quality of life, but they have never lived a good quality of life, because they do not know what a good quality of life is! What is a "good quality of life"? Being rich, using high-end products, owning high-end cars, living in luxury houses...are these a good quality of life?


There are many people who work hard to make money, but they are reluctant to spend it! They make money just to build a "money kingdom"! There are many people who work hard to make money, but they die suddenly without ever enjoying the money they earned! There are still many people who are working hard to make money for retirement, but they don’t even have the chance to retire, and they will die before the retirement age! There are still many people who make money just to make other people envy their lives. Do you think these people are stupid? We should do a questionnaire: Just ask one question: What is the meaning and value of our life? Let’s think about it: How many people can actually answer this question? What is the true value and meaning of our lives? "Eat, drink, be happy, and wait for your future death"? Of course this is not the true meaning and value of life!


Jesus tells us that this verse conveys a very important "value"! The most important value in our life is: Using unjust money to bring us into the tabernacle of eternal life! The real value of our life is: using unrighteous money to bring us into the tabernacle of eternal life! No matter how we get our money, it is "unrighteous"! We must have a very important concept: money can never “justify” us! Therefore, money is "unrighteous"! "Money" itself is a "tool"! When a person "does good", it is not because of "his money" that achieves his "good deeds", but because of his "kind heart + good deeds" that achieves his "goodness"! Therefore, "money" is just a tool! Just like "building a bridge and paving a road" requires a shovel! What is most needed to "do good" is: "kindness + good deeds", not "money"! There are so many rich people in the world. Can all rich people enter heaven? Of course not! Rich people must use "unrighteous money to enter the tabernacle of eternal life"! This is why there are so many rich people, but it is harder for a rich person to get into heaven than it is for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle! And this verse is never meant to help "launder money. " These pastors use the verse to "launder money" so that they can use the church to make more money and collect more donations! This is the main reason why the church is straying further and further away from the "true way"! Jesus’ wisdom is at least hundreds of times greater than ours! We think Einstein is smart, but I can tell you: Jesus is smarter! Einstein said: The human brain only uses 20%! Einstein used 20% of his brain and was already so smart, so the wisdom of Jesus is definitely beyond our comprehension! Why? Because God created the universe, He has put the "law of creation" into the laws of the universe! We humans have never "created", we have only "discovered and used the laws of the universe"! This sentence is hard to understand! Hope you will understand in the future! We need to understand: money cannot take us to the eternal tabernacle! There is only one thing that can bring us into the eternal tabernacle: "Do good"! "Do good" = "kind heart" + "good deeds"! This is the real "doing good"!
