Sethist Greed Versus Sharing
Brief sermon notes from Oct. 10, 2021
Acts 4:32-37
5:1-11
Seth committed the same lie from the book of Acts when the person lied about selling a house and giving all of the money to the apostles. God killed that man and woman. Today, Seth lied and told me that he had given me all of his money! But I knew that he had hundreds of dollars held back. Although he didn't sell a house, it was the same sin of withholding money while claiming that all of it was given to the apostle. And in both cases in real life and in Acts, the money would have benefited EVERYONE, but the greedy person was secretly keeping for their self.
Remember some people rebelled against Moses.
Matt. 6:19-21 Don't store up treasures for yourself on Earth, for where your treasure is, your heart will also be.
Seth had recently told me that he ask God or wanted to ask God to give him his own farm and land and house. He said it in the context of ownership and great prosperity as if the Great Tribulation wasn't very near.
And also has if sharing with other people wasn't what he wanted to do. But that he wanted it all for himself, in order to be wealthy and live in wealth, which is what he is accustomed to.
In Ethiopia, he owned his own house and farm with animals. And even here in the USA, he owns 2 pieces of property somewhere.
So he is wealthy and wasn't going to settle for just living with someone else and being financially restrained.
