Greed and corruption and deceit terrible havoc throughout our society and there seems to be limited to only some countries. It seems to be fairly universal. One finds that in the United Kingdom and America as well as some of these countries where we used to believe that corruption is rife. Now is everywhere, and there seems to be far more destructive wave of corruption and greed everywhere, where men are out just for them.
The foundations have crumbled. The bedrock of morality and ethics has been passed suddenly.
People found out and falling fast. The families are devastated. Companies and fall and no accident. It is serious on many levels!
What can we do about it? What can we do about people who live on a pound per day, or a dollar a day? I've been reading this morning about being persecuted for their faith. For thirty years I have been involved in this ministry and work.
Our banks have been so close to collapse. Our financial institutions are in serious trouble, as greed and the desire to possess more and more companies have taken over the hearts and minds of men and women.
How can people accept unpleasant and undeserved bonuses when employees of the same company are losing their jobs?
How could the politicians who were so aware of what was happening at Westminster continue posting those charges absurd such a long period?
Everything is greed and corruption and deceit as people thought it would never be discovered. God says that men are out and not just the sins of a man found out, but that will be discovered. His true nature and character is revealed.
God warns men to be on guard against all kinds of greed. Of course, most people disregard what God has said and what Jesus taught, but the impact is going to come to pass and again.
Man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions, but many simply do not believe it. However, it becomes truth.
It's called sin. When a special news was broadcast to address any aspect of this I would say just under my breath, "It is all sin."
How rich will be five minutes after death? You can not take any of that with you, but there is a way which can be sent ahead and discover a lot of friends after this life on earth has ended. Jesus taught that very clear and specific.
Later this month I'm going back to Kenya where I will be with the poor and teach them how they could legitimately improve their lives. If you can help improve someone's life and the conditions and the environment, do what I can and try to stay out of greed and corruption and deceit.
One day we must all stand before God Almighty if we want to or not and whether we are currently believed or not. Prepare now because we never know when that day.
