Dear Jane: Mat 4 8:9 " Again the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain and sheweth Him the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them and saith to Him, all these things will I give thee if thou wilt fall down and worship me." The first thing to ask is are the kingdoms of the world satan's to deliver, hollywoood, wall street, zurich, nbc, cbs, publishing centers, media centers. Yes they are. Nowhere did Christ doubt satan's ability to deliver these things to Him. There was no argument. In my spirit, I feel what I am about to say is from the Lord himself. This Christmas season has taken the world by storm. The world , including myself to an extent, is looking at the Hong Kong market, Saddam Hussien, Japan, Wall Street ect.. Christian Investors are trembling with fear at the prospect of a global crash, another "29" . There are some pulling everything out of the markets, going into cash. I ask myself why.? You may believe in the rapture, may not. Either way, so what ? If some global cataclysmic disaster strikes cash isn't going to do you any good, any more than stocks or bonds. If you believe in the rapture you won't be here to see it. If you don't believe in the rapture then a global collapse will wipe out all computer memory and what will you have to show for it. I firmly believe that a nuclear war would wipe out all memory in computer data bases because of the electromagnetic disturbances in the atmosphere. My counsel has been therefore, if you don't own some buy a little gold right now, or a few mining stocks but definitely own some gold in your posession. The rest of your wealth keep it working, for the glory of God. As the Lord blesses you return to His kingdom. Find the fertile soil. The days are short and it is going to take a lot of effort time and finances to win souls for the kingdom. Keep the faith where your finances are concerned. Give the Lord glory in every area of your life including your finances. Give to your local church, support productive ministries, missionaries ect. Don't bail out , don't give up , you are not going under you are going over. We are going to win this world for Jesus Christ. In Christ..gregor
