The markets are rigged: are God's creations the safe investment havens? What about Bitcoin?
Zach Abraham joins us - Show Notes: Episode 48 - Hour Two
THE TEASE: Should our money be invested in God’s creations, mans or a combination? Zach Abraham joins us to answer that and listener questions.
THE THESIS: The Lord is revealing in every way He chooses to, the icons people have grown to revere are twisted and broken. The stock market, the Federal Reserve, the Treasury, the Bond markets are all manipulated and rigged. I believe God is going to demonstrate that only the things He creates have real value.
THE SCRIPTURE & RESOURCES:
Luke 12: 13-21 - The Parable of the Rich Fool
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14 Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” 15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”
16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.” ’
20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
21 “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”
