The Bible vs Greed. 10-23-2006. |
Luke 12: 13-21.
Saying Against Greed.
Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to share
the inheritance with me." He replied to him, "Friend, who appointed me
as your judge and arbitrator?" Then he said to the crowd, "Take care
to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one's life does
not consist of possessions."
Parable Of The Rich Fool.
Then he told them a parable. "There was a rich man whose land produced
a bountiful harvest. He asked himself, 'What shall I do, for I do not
have space to store my harvest?' And he said, 'This is what I shall
do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall
store all my grain and other goods and I shall say to myself, "Now as
for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest,
eat, drink, be merry!" But God said to him, 'You fool, this night your
life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom
will they belong?' Thus will it be for the one who stores up treasure
for himself but is not rich in what matters to God."

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then
shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

The notion that faith in Christ is to be rewarded by an eternity of
bliss
while a dependence upon reason, observation, and experience merits
everlasting pain is too absurd for refutation, and can be believed only
by that unhappy mixture of insanity and ignorance called 'faith'.
-- Robert G. Ingersoll
