With the fall of the great banks it is important to stress that money is of secondary importance to the Word of God, which is the foundation of all reality.
In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus speaks of building one’s house’s foundation upon sand or upon rock. Those who build on sand do so only on visible and tangible things: on success, career and money. These appear to be reality, but one day they will pass away.
We see this happening now with the fall of the great banks. Money disappears, it becomes nothing. And thus all these things which seem to be real and upon which we can rely, are in fact of secondary importance.
Only the Word of God is the foundation of all reality, stable like heaven. Therefore we must change our concept of reality. A realist is one who recognizes that the Word of God — this reality that appears so weak — is in fact the foundation of everything. PAUL KOKOSKI
