Prophecy News Watch :

The #commandments against stealing and coveting make little sense without some concept of #legitimate #possession.

Likewise, throughout #Scripture #people own #homes, #land, #businesses and #possessions. The #Bible #repeatedly regulates how property should be acquired and used rather than simply #abolishing #ownership.

Acts itself continues referring to #Christians who owned homes even after describing the #Jerusalem believers’ remarkable sharing of #possessions.

#Prophecy #News Watch : #Christianity Locates The Problem Deeper Than #Economic Class

Prophecy News Watch :

#Socialist traditions have often understood #society through #tensions between #economic classes and #ownership of #productive #resources.

#Christianity certainly recognizes #economic #oppression. #Scripture repeatedly condemns #exploitation of the poor.

But Christianity’s #diagnosis goes deeper: the #fundamental human problem is #sin.

Rich #people can be greedy. #Employers can exploit #workers. But workers, #politicians, #bureaucrats and #revolutionaries are fallen #HumanBeings as well.

Changing who controls #wealth does not change #HumanNature.
