  Matthew 24:42-44 In-Context

  40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

  41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

  42 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

  43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

  44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

  45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time?

  46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

Do the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes?
During her presidential campaign, Sec. Hillary Clinton has repeatedly said she’d implement a tax system in which the wealthy “pay their fair share in taxes.” Expecting the rich to pay what is “fair” is not asking to much of them. But one question that is rarely considered is, “What if they already do pay their fair share?” Before we can determine whether the rich pay enough we have to first ask what would be “fair.” How much of total tax...
Immigrants: Don’t vote for what you fled!
Many of America’s immigrants fled nations that were ruined by corrupt politicians and failed government policies. So why, asks Gloria Alvarez, “do you support the same policies in the U.S. that caused you to flee your home country?” Alvarez, Project Director at the National Civic Movement of Guatemala, says that what makes the United States different from her home country of Guatemala is the “unique American belief in limited government” that leads to greater individual freedom and personal responsibility. This...
The case for faith and a free market
“In modern times, more and more Americans have unwittingly relinquished their freedoms and self-determination to career politicians,” says Daniel Garza, president and chairman of The LIBRE Institute. “Millions have ceded their fate to a raft of government programs and entitlements administered by a powerful central government.” Fighting poverty through work, generated by a free market economic system, is essential to sustain a free society. Ours is the only system the world has ever known that so effectively improves the human...
The ‘Greed Myth’ and other economic illusions

Fortunately, as Jay Richards says, it doesn’t take an advance degree to understand how innovation and free markets lead to flourishing. All it takes is dispelling a few economic illusions: 1. Can’t we build a just society? In seeking a more just society, we must avoid the “Nirvana Myth,” that paring the market economy with an unrealizable ideal. hough the kingdom of God is already present in some...
Why Doug (like other low-income Americans) doesn’t trust authority
This weekend Saturday Night Live had a sketch that set the Internet abuzz and had Slate asking whetherthe skit was the “most astute analysis of american politics in 2016.” The setup was “Black Jeopardy!”,a recurring bit on SNL that normally pits two lower-class black contestants against a wealthier and/or well-educated white contestant who is clueless about African-American perspectives on race and culture. Thistime, though,the white guy is a working-class (presumed)Trump supporter named Doug(played by Tom Hanks)—who isn’t as out of...
Read up on Reformation Day
“The attachment of Luther’s 95 Theses” by Julius Hübne Today is a momentous day in Western history, the beginning of what would be known as the Protestant Reformation.
