Jesus Beats Bankers

[blackrabbit]

This is a 10 oz. silver bar design which is currently being made by Silver Shield, which most stackers seem to dislike these days, but I like this design so much I thought I'd post it.

Sweet! God whips the bankers. I await the 2nd coming patiently, just to see it.

Father Rosado might like these.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple - the money-changers

Mat 21:12 And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.
Mat 21:13 He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you make it a den of robbers."

Amen!

amen...and amen.

Y'know Country, I LOVE the "idea"of that ingot, because I love that Precious Portion of Holy Scripture....."My house shall be called a house of prayer".........In John's Gospel, Jesus cleansed the Temple TWICE, at the start of His earthly ministry and at the close....and two thousands years later, do we call Jesus' house, a house of prayer?

no, its either the First (insert denomination) of (insert city).....or its an outpost of the roman institution.

I couldn't buy that ingot because it has a physical image of Jesus, which is an idol, the same as rome has fashioned a "crucifix", fashioning an physical image of Jesus on the Cross....or is it a Tree, that the Son of God was hung on?.

If one gives an active reading of the Old Testament 15 prophets, 3 major, 12 "minor" (they were anything but minor), but besides prophesying the Coming of the Messiah, they also are used by God to speak forth God's major complaint....idolatry.

this is my own personal dilemma, that I should TRUST in my "stack", God forbid...or that I should worship it....and if my mind takes me THERE, I pray God He blots me out at once. As a Jew who follows Messiah Jesus, I trust in the One True God, and the Son of God, and open my heart wide, to let the God the Holy Ghost to be my Comforter, my Counselor, in my heart I trust and love and follow Him.

as far as 'the stack', i'm only obeying the Lord...."to be as shrewd as a snake and innocent as a dove" .

and as far as the many "religious institutions", with their man centered systems,and their bureaucracies, and their constant bleating for money, or their vaults held full of stolen wealth (rome)......God is watching.

But Jesus helped US...meaning the dear people that post on here, when the religious elite of the day tried to trap Him, with the question, "Teacher (rabbi") do we pay taxes?'.......such taxes paid to their roman occupiers....if Jesus had said, "yes"......they would have screamed "collaborator! traitor!".....and if Jesus had said "no", they would have screamed, "rebel, insurrectionist!"....instead, as you know, Jesus said, "show me that coin"...probably a tenth toz roman denarius, and asked "Who's image is on that coin?'

"Caesar's"

So give to Caesar what is Caesar's , and give to God what is God's".

Divine Wisdom....pray God we NEVER "worship" our stacks......(that fell into the river....lol)

i'll close with a sermon that is just powerful, says everything I wish God would put into my mouth:

"Fundamentalism versus Apostasy" -------Ian Paisley March 1969...(just give it 5 minutes, if it "bores" you ...then stop, but don't think it will bore or others....Ian, before he got into politics,was a giant of the Faith)

I'm not interested in stuff with an angry or negative message.

Other people seem to get excited over the zombies, crash the fed, hang the banksters, etc., but I can't see those things carrying a lasting premium. When you eventually go to sell them, your market will be limited to angry/negative buyers rather than the much larger pool of people who want pretty/shiny/happy things.

A long time from now they might be a historical novelty like "look how doom & gloom people were in the 20-teens" kind of thing, but I agree, I don't find those kind of designs appealing.
The fancy animal coins, art bars, and commemoratives don't do much for me either. Personally, I like items that looks traditional & practical, such as old pour bars, JM bars, A-mark stackers, Credit Suisse, Eagles, etc. Those things will always have a small to medium premium no matter where the market is because of the trust and liquidity factor.

So give to Caesar what is Caesar's , and give to God what is God's".

Give to Caesar what is his in context of this:

The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
-Psalm 24:1

Jesus knew Psalms (He was a Rabbi, and if you believe the Bible, he was also The Word itself made flesh), and he knew the Pharisees knew Psalms. If he said to the Jews to pay their taxes he would seem as a traitor to his people who were being occupied, but if he said not to pay he would be arrested for inciting revolt by the Roman authorities. He answered in such a way that the Jews would understand that everything belongs to God, but the Romans, who did not know the Old Testament (yet), would not understand. That is why it says they were amazed at his answer (there is nothing amazing about someone saying to pay taxes, rather his subtlety on the matter was amazing)

However, from the story about the coin in the fishes mouth, we know that Jesus did in fact pay the taxes. So what I take out of all of it is that high taxes, especially to a immoral government, are not a good thing or something God supports, but he condones as a human practical matter for us to pay them and stay out of prison, since we have more important things to worry about in life than tax protesting.

You've gotta admit having at least one of these would be amusing:

Makes me chuckle and sad at the same time. I love my country, but hate "this" goober-ment! Further clarification; I don't hate my goober-ment, just what my goober-ment (Goober's in all levels of Goober-ment) is doing to We the People! No offense to Goober Pyle, Goobers candy, or Goober's Peas intended!
