The Benefits of Sharing

True Christianity has much more than just info on sharing.

It is much better to start with the easy reading summary of the many topics covered.


The Benefits of Sharing & the Danger of Not

The benefits of sharing, helping or giving & the danger of not.
      We don't really own anything. It is God who does. The only reason why some people have blessings and possessions is because they were given them by God, and not because they worked hard, or because they were good and honest people. People who are well off could be in desperate poverty and dying if they were born in another country, even if they are good, hard working, honest Christians. Therefore, being well off is a test for people to do God's will.
     Mostly, the poverty of the poor is not their fault, but the fault of corruption, disasters, wars, multinationals, unjust prison detention, their country's policies, illness, abuse, technical problems, governments, high costs, trade unions, and other unfortunate circumstances beyond their control. If we could form a better system it would be fine to have a lot more personal wealth than suggested. You won't change the whole world system but in a small group we could form a better system independent of the mainstream one. If some wealthy people shared their wealth we would have more than enough finances to do what we need and help others.
      God wants us to live in abundance but people are trying to gain abundance in the wrong ways and use their wealth on the wrong things. It must be remembered that the Bible says things are worse in these last days than when Christians could fairly live in abundance. Now there is more competition than before. So to gain money you have to compete more against and disadvantage other poor honest Christians. This is because the wealthy do not share.

Strong Economies only Benefit a Few

      There is more than enough wealth and money in the world to adequately provide for everybody's need, but the problem is it is not distributed to those who need it. Therefore, in most communities to gain wealth and not use it for a good purpose it has to disadvantage someone else. A corrupt few individuals accumulate most of the wealth so that only a limited amount of wealth is distributed to the average person. Therefore, for an average person to gain wealth it has to be taken off another average person.
      One example is where the government wastes money on unnecessary things that benefit the rich at the expense of the poor. Poor people are starved of funding and also pay taxes to the government. Their tax money is given to the rich and wasted. The government only has a limited amount of money in the budget.
      Some people wrongly believe that strong economic activity benefits everyone. Often in countries with the largest wealth there is more poverty. The rich are getting richer, and the poor poorer. Countries and people are becoming more indebted. The gaining wealth of the multinationals is doing the opposite of making the average person prosper. It is resulting in the destruction of useful small businesses that cannot compete. Therefore, local jobs, services and wealth are lost.

Facts on Wealth Distribution

      It is no good if part of the body of Christ spends excess money on unnecessary things that are not for God's will while most of Christ's body are struggling to survive and fund their activities to do God's will.
     Instead of working to help others and do God's will, most people are working to help themselves, while harder working people who are less well off have their lives destroyed. It is up to you to change, as you can't rely on evil people or the government to do anything, as most rich people are the least helpful. People think that they deserve excess money because they worked hard, but the problem is, that most of the world is in poverty, despite many working hard. Therefore, by using your money or time for unnecessary things and not God's will, you could be guilty in God's sight of destroying Christian people, who are less well off. If you don't use your money or time for God's will, you are preventing people from getting saved by not hearing the gospel.
     On a pensioners income people would normally be able to afford a reasonable house or flat, a cheap car, enough food, clothes and some extras if they don't waste their money. The medium income in wealthy countries is approximately as much as a pension. That means most people do not earn much more than a pension in countries with a high standard of living. Many of these poor people honestly work hard. They include almost all small businesses, volunteer workers and many sincere unemployed people who are trying very hard. Therefore, in countries of high standards of living if you earn more than a pension you would be gaining excess money or more money than you really need for yourself compared to others.
     Who God judges as rich is probably not who the bureau of statistics judge to be rich.
     It could be that anyone who keeps more money than a pension income in countries with high standards of living is considered wealthy in God's sight. This is because they are in approximately the top 5% of income earners in the world. They are also in approximately the top 5% in the world when it comes to their standard of living.
     Many scriptures indicate that if you have more possessions or earn more money than most, you must not use your excess income or possessions for yourselves but instead use if for Godly purposes. Hence, this will include everyone who earns more than a pension in countries of high standards of living. Every Christian should seek to use all their time and money for God's will. If they don't, they are in extreme danger of judgment, which could be a lost eternity.
      Some people are forced to invest their money in something secular as part of a condition to receive an injury compensation claim. This is so they will have money to pay for future carers and necessary goods. The investment could include useful real estate. Other people gain large sums of money through acceptable means such as an inheritance. It will take time for these people to decide where to use the money for God's will. In the mean time they would need to invest it in something like useful real estate.
     God would be understanding of people who intend to do God's will, but make mistakes by mistakenly doing or buying the wrong things. We at least need to seek and try to do God's will, even though we all make mistakes.

Who Benefits Society the Most

     One article mathematically proves that people who work hard for no pay, or people who use all their income for God's will are a net benefit to society. However, people who earn excess money and don't use it for God's will have a negative impact.
     People earning and keeping more money than they need, have to take money that is either:
1. from the Government, (if they are public servants).
2. as wages from a poor small business manager, or charges to a poor person.
3. from a company, which causes that company to charge higher costs to poor people.
     This money taken from society increases the country's debt and the personal debt of people. Therefore, it gives more control to the corrupt powerful corporations. To gain money, it has to come from somewhere, to the disadvantage of someone or something else. This however, is not a problem if the person receiving the money uses it for God's will.

Biblical Examples and Verses

     In the case of the rich young ruler (Mark 10:21) (who wanted to be saved) and the rich man (Luke 16:19) (who did not help Lazarus), keeping money and not helping others were the only reasons mentioned why they did not enter Heaven. Instead, they are tormented in Hell. There are also many other verses showing the importance of wealth sharing below.
     "James 5:1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. 2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten. 3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Proverbs 13:7 There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches. Proverbs 21:17 He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich. Micah 6:12 For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth. 1 Timothy 6:9  But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. Matthew 25:43  I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.  1John 3:17 - But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? Luke 3:11 - He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise. 13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you. 14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages. Mark 10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. 23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. Luke 6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. 24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation. 25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep. 26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. 34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Luke 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself,and is not rich toward God. Luke 30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last. James 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. 14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble."
     Then there is the case of Ananias and Sapphira who were struck dead by God for not obeying God and sharing their wealth. The below Scriptures appear to indicate that the condition to be a Christian is to not lie and to share ones wealth. Everyone below shared, unlike the church today. But the ones who did not share were punished. "Acts 4:34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 35 And laid them down at the Apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need. Acts 5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things."
     Verses also indicate that it is wrong to directly charge someone money when they are not expecting it. In 2 Kings 5 the punishment was that Gehazi and his descendants were struck leprous. Trying to make money and Christianity don't go well together. In Matthew 21:12-13 Jesus saw people trying to sell things in the temple and he aggressively drove them out. In Matthew 27:3-10 Judas Iscariot sold Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. In Matthew 28:13 the chief priests bribed the soldiers into lying about Jesus for a large sum of money. In Revelation 13:16-17 and Revelation 14:9-11, one will have to disobey God by taking the mark of the Beast to legally buy or sell.
