Download or read book Counting the Cost written by Art Lindsley and published by ACU Press. This book was released on 2017-08-08 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Christians want to accelerate the world’s transition out of abject poverty, they need to examine the role of capitalism. Counting the Cost helps readers begin with the truth of Scripture. It then relies on the economic realities that come from our Godgiven design as the foundation for enabling readers to think critically about capitalism. We live in an unprecedented time in human history. The number of people living in abject poverty is decreasing at an unprecedented rate. Capitalism has played a major role in lifting people out of such poverty, yet many raise legitimate concerns. Does capitalism hurt the poor? Promote materialism? Harm the environment? Allow the rich to get richer at the expense of everyone else? Is capitalism really the best system for organizing societies and the economies that keep them running? This edited volume of articles by noted economists and theologians takes an honest and empathetic look at capitalism and its critiques from a biblical perspective.

Book Synopsis Less Than Two Dollars a Day by : Kent A. Van Til
Download or read book Less Than Two Dollars a Day written by Kent A. Van Til and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2007-03-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian tradition demands basic sustenance for all as a human right. Yet the contemporary capitalist economy makes no such demands, and the free market is not designed to provide basic human sustenance. As Western Christians, how ought we to solve this conundrum? Kent Van Til maintains that the gulf between the two calls for an alternative system of distribution. In this constructively critical work Van Til takes a hard look at the realities of life in a free-market system, including illuminating examples from his own experience in Latin America. He considers how the contemporary capitalist economy guides the distribution of goods around the world, and he examines the inadequacies of this system. Drawing heavily on the ideas of political theorist Michael Walzer and nineteenth-century theologian-statesman Abraham Kuyper, Van Til proposes an alternative system of distributive justice, equalizing the claims to both burdens and benefits.

Book Synopsis Was Jesus a Socialist? by : Lawrence W. Reed
Download or read book Was Jesus a Socialist? written by Lawrence W. Reed and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-08-22 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If anyone was ever a socialist, it was Jesus."—Kelley Rose, Democratic Socialists of America Economist and historian Lawrence W. Reed has been hearing people say "Jesus was a socialist" for fifty years. And it has always bothered him. Now he is doing something about it. His new book demolishes the claim that Jesus was a socialist. Jesus called on earthly governments to redistribute wealth? Or centrally plan the economy? Or even impose a welfare state? Hardly. Point by point, Reed answers the claims of socialists and progressives who try to enlist Jesus in their causes. As he reveals, nothing in the New Testament supports their contentions. Was Jesus a Socialist? could not be more timely. Socialism has made a shocking comeback in America. Poll after poll shows that young Americans have a positive image of socialism. In fact, more than half say they would rather live in a socialist country than in a capitalist one. And as socialism has come back into vogue, more and more of its advocates have tried to convince us that Jesus was a socialist. This rhetoric has had an impact. According to a 2016 poll by the Barna Group, Americans think socialism aligns better with Jesus's teachings than capitalism does. When respondents were asked which of that year's presidential candidates aligned closest to Jesus's teachings, a self-proclaimed "democratic socialist" came out on top. Sure enough, the same candidate earned more primary votes from under-thirty voters than did the eventual Democratic and Republican nominees combined. And in a 2019 survey, more than 70 percent of millennials said they were likely to vote for a socialist. Was Jesus a Socialist? expands on the immensely popular video of the same name that Reed recorded for Prager University in July 2019. That video has attracted more than four million views online. Ultimately, Reed shows the foolishness of trying to enlist Jesus in any political cause today. He writes: "While I don't believe it is valid to claim that Jesus was a socialist, I also don't think it is valid to argue that he was a capitalist. Neither was he a Republican or a Democrat. These are modern-day terms, and to apply any of them to Jesus is to limit him to but a fraction of who he was and what he taught."
Book Synopsis God Is a Capitalist by : Roger McKinney
Download or read book God Is a Capitalist written by Roger McKinney and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is capitalism? Where did it come from? Is capitalism moral? Isn't socialism Christian economics? Most people have learned the socialist answers well in school and the media. God is a Capitalist brings together the best economic history, theology and sociology from scholars such as Ludwig von Mises, F. A. Hayek, William Baumol, Adam Smith, Helmut Schoeck, Larry Siedentop, Rodney Stark, John Walton, Lawrence Harrison, Samuel Huntington and many more to give you the accurate history. God created for Israel the first capitalist nation in history with the Mosaic law contained in the first five books of the Bible. Though Moses had been raised and educated by Egyptian royalty, he formed a unique government and an economic system that was the opposite of all he had learned from Egypt. Israel had no human executive, standing army, legislature, or police force. God gave them just 613 laws to guide courts in settling civil disputes. God's law sanctified private property through the commandments to not steal. By "thou shalt not covet," God told people to not even think about theft. Property requires control and only free markets provides the control necessary to make property a reality. Israel would have prospered as no other nation had it remained faithful because it possessed the principles that made the West rich millennia later. But Israel wanted a king and that ended Israel's freedom and free markets. The world suffered in poverty and starvation for 2,500 years until theologians at the University of Salamanca, Spain, rediscovered the economic principles of Moses in the Bible. The Dutch Republic of the 16th century implemented those principles and created the first capitalist nation. It quickly became the wealthiest and most powerful nation in the West with standards of living rising steadily for the first time. England, then the United States, and other Western nations followed the Dutch system. As a result, standards of living in the West have exploded as much as 30 times the levels of the 16th century. Capitalism is the only moral economic system because it is based on Biblical principles. No one invented capitalism; they merely discovered God's principles. Atheists and deists created modern socialism in the early 19th century France as they fabricated a new religion to save mankind through redistribution of wealth and state regulation of business. God is a Capitalist answers criticisms of capitalism from socialists, conservatives and many Christians using the best scholarship available. It shows how Biblical economic principles answer the most vexing problems the world faces today, such as poverty, inequality and pollution.
