Godly Business
The church stands resolutely against Babylon and the harlot nature of today's godless businesses and governments, recognizing the pervasive influence of greed and corruption that undermines moral and spiritual integrity. In contemporary society, many businesses and governmental practices prioritize profit and power over ethical considerations and the well-being of individuals and communities. This mirrors the biblical depiction of Babylon, a symbol of decadence, moral decay, and opposition to divine principles.
The Church’s Stand Against Modern Babylon
The church's opposition to the modern embodiment of Babylon is rooted in its commitment to uphold values that honor God and foster a just society. The harlot nature of today's godless enterprises and authorities is characterized by exploitation, dishonesty, and a relentless pursuit of wealth at the expense of human dignity and moral principles. Such practices not only harm individuals but also erode the fabric of society, leading to widespread inequality and social unrest.
Embracing Christian Capitalism
To combat this, the church advocates for Christian Capitalism, a model that integrates faith-based values into economic practices. Christian Capitalism emphasizes the moral responsibility of businesses to serve God and humanity. It promotes ethical decision-making, transparency, and a commitment to the common good. Under this model, businesses are seen as stewards of God's creation, tasked with fostering prosperity in a manner that aligns with Christian ethics.
Capital Market Reforms
The church calls for capital market reforms to reshape business charters so they align with divine principles. This involves revising corporate governance structures to prioritize social responsibility, environmental stewardship, and ethical conduct. It also includes creating frameworks that discourage greed and incentivize practices that contribute to the well-being of society.
Protecting Against Greed
Greed, identified as a root of many evils, must be actively guarded against. The church encourages believers to cultivate virtues such as generosity, humility, and compassion. Businesses and individuals alike are called to resist the temptation of placing profit above ethical considerations. By doing so, they can transform the marketplace into a realm that reflects God's love and justice.
