“Scripture teaches that acquiring wealth through dishonest practices is unacceptable that only the righteous earn a true reward. If we, as Christians, simply adopt the questionable business ethics prevalent in the world around us, then we are treading on dangerous ground with God. Regardless of what society tells us is okay, regardless of what everyone else seems to be doing, we need to be c careful not to lead us into treating anyone unfairly or deceptively.

“Jesus says, “You cannot serve both God and Money” (Matthew 6:24; Luke 16:13) and I think the biggest challenge for any Christian business, for anyone with customers or clients or employees or suppliers whoever it is we encounter, is to focus on humanity o the people we deal with. It’s far too easy to start looking at dollar signs and forget the person in front of us . . . “ .” To read more, see The Believer’s Guide to Legal Issues

The Bankruptcy Bailout – “Everything is permissible” – but not beneficial. “Everything is permissible” – but not everything is constructive. Nobody should seek his own goo, but the good of others. ~ I Corinthians 10:23-24

“But like so many of our cherished freedoms, the bankruptcy concept was intended for a culture in which strong Christian moral values were prevalent. Whether a person could legally qualify for bankruptcy protection or not, it was generally understood that bankruptcy would be used by debtors only as a last resort. Today, however, in our emerging post-Christian culture, those assumptions no longer hold true. . . . bankruptcy seems to have developed into just another option, a personal decision to be made without regard for how it affects anyone else.” To read more, see The Believer’s Guide to Legal Issues

“My fundamental concern about living wills arises not from their use of initially envisioned, but rather from the common misuse, mis-application, and misunderstanding of the living-will concept. I believe that God view human life as a sacred thing. However, there are many groups and individuals within our culture who do not share that view. These forces manifest themselves in various ways at various times.” To read more, see The Believer’s Guide to Legal Issues
