| | | History will remember Socrates, Aristotle, Jesus, Shakespeare, the Framers of the US Constitution, it won’t remember the inventor of a fabulously successful word processor for ten seconds. Bill Gates knows this and wants to buy himself into history by doing something monstrously large, good or bad.
The test is simple, if you’re sincere you don’t virtue signal.
Matthew 6:1-6, Jesus says:
“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. |
