MONEY MASTERY

“One of the great differences that set Jews apart from other cultural groups is that we see our wealth as a means to partner with God, as a way to bring God’s kingdom into this earth, a concept that we call tikkun olam – perfecting the world. We perfect the world by using our God- given wealth to further God’s realm on this planet. So what you see is that the Jewish people’s pursuit of wealth is often paired with the pursuit of charitable works, not only for selfish purposes.”

― CELSO CUKIERKORN, SECRETS OF JEWISH WEALTH REVEALED!

MONEY MASTERY

“The bottom line is this: to be religious Jews, we are not supposed to isolate ourselves on a mountaintop and meditate, nor are we to take vows of poverty --rather, we are supposed to get out into the world, interact with it, and elevate the mundane. This, in fact, is the traditional meaning of "tikkun olam." We repair the world by elevating it to the holy. The Talmud actually compares a poor man to a dead person. If you have no money, then your ability to partner with G-d and perfect the world is severely limited, much like one who is dead."

2 KINGS 3:4-5, 16-174 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheepbreeder, and he regularly paid the king of Israel one hundred thousand lambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams. 5 But it happened, when Ahab died, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.16 And he said, “Thus says the Lord:‘ Make this valley full of ditches. ’ 17 For thus says the Lord: ‘You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.

LAW OF STEWARDSHIP

JEREMIAH 52:31-34

Now it came to pass in the thirty- seventh year of the captivity ofJehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty- fifth day ofthe month, that Evil- Merodach king of Babylon, in the first year of hisreign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah and brought himout of prison. And he spoke kindly to him and gave him a moreprominent seat than those of the kings who were with him in Babylon.So Jehoiachin changed from his prison garments, and he ate breadregularly before the king all the days of his life. And as for his provisions,there was a regular ration given him by the king of Babylon, a portion foreach day until the day of his death, all the days of his life.

READ EMAILGreetings,Thank you so much for the progress and determination in doing the seminar here in Ethiopia.As all of you may remember I have tried to highlight some points to be considered into your teachings which you have in mind. To sum up about, it is urgent for the church to be aware and involve in this business world where every one's language is about business. If you stay here for few days in Ethiopia and listen, people are passionate to be business owners, grow economically.... and in this midst of movement I think the church is not sure of the ways she can involve in. Members, including most leaders, do not have clear insight in this regard. Ordained church ministers are worrying how to it besides their ministry. There so many issues and challenges related to this timely issue. In developing nations like Ethiopia, sound teaching in this regard is like laying the foundation to redeem the generation to come.
