Money is used to solve all social problems. People do not see how money transformed the world from their morals and ethics. Now God has become is competition for money; we’d rather worship than seek and worship God. It is a tragedy to see this, what lessons are being taught to our upcoming generation?

To tell the truth, the words “thank you” are slowly drifting away, in every language. Even if you offered some small kind of help, no one will be thanking you. Where is the world going? Somebody tell me where are we going. Because of lack of thanksgiving, people have turned away from the true morals and ethics of Ubuntu. Author and finisher of my faith and the head of the church is Jesus. Who is the author and finisher of your faith? Money? Who is the head now? Money?

“From this rock I shall build my church.”

Church leaders are fighting to be in head positions, forgetting and ignoring who is the head by right, just because of money. Church has turned into fashion parades, pageant competitions and car exhibitions. Church is now a business where the word of God is being sold. Now it has turned into the devil’s playground.

Poor people are being helped, not because of generosity of the heart, most do it just to get recognition. Now we have too many churches which are open almost every day, but there are no transformations. For the pseudo prophets and pseudo pastors money is the solution, like really? God already warned us that this shall occur and he gave us the solutions. Oh come on people, read, because your life depends on reading.

Go back where you have lost track and start to walk in the right track you were once in, which was god’s way. Nations are perishing because they lack knowledge and understanding. How long will you go heading towards the ocean of furnace?

God loves you and does not want you to perish like this. Jesus said to the high priests and the law givers, “Stop turning my Father’s house into a house of thieves.” He was saying once money becomes an important variable in the church, people will lose their focus on God and will begin to follow their desire for money.

They plotted against Jesus, wanted to trap him in his own words. They said, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by appearances, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?”

But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why put me to the test? Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” And they brought one and he said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?”

They said, “Caesar’s,”

Jesus said, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and God the things that are God’s.” And they marveled at him. (Matthew 22:21)

As we read deeper into Jesus’ answer he says that money should not be a wall between us and God. But as people, we have a desire for money, we sin, and the relationship of men and God is broken by money.

In our present time, he says render to Mandela the things that are Mandela’s and God the things that are God’s. As now we see how the church is breaking day by day. Once you put money into your heart know this, you are substituting God as your life giver with money.

Money is not sin, it is the love of money that is. Read Hosea 3:2 and you will understand how God used Hosea to buy a wife from her prostitute work. As he said, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”

1 Corinthians 3 says all the foundations will be tested by fire. Make sure you know this and remember it by your heart once you read the scripture if you have not read it.
