    Napoleon Hill Think And Grow Rich Summary

    I truly believe that with a firm gospel foundation and an understanding of the admonition of Jacob in the Book of Mormon, “But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God.” (Jacob 2:18), those who follow correct principles of work, honesty, and integrity can also be highly successful in business and career. I believe our Father in Heaven created us in his image and likeness. This includes his attributes and abilities, even though ours are less experienced and developed. Part of this mortal experience involves developing and mastering our bodies, minds, and spirits. As we learn our capacities and capabilities, we grow to direct and control them to be more in line with the Fathers will. The true principles in Think and Grow Rich, if correctly applied, can be a blessing to me, my family, and all within my sphere of influence. They can be used to improve a person’s place in the world, to create innovation and opportunity, to build character, and greatest of all, bring glory to the Creator of all and build up His kingdom on the…

    Evolving Perspectives on Merchants

    Documents 1 and 2 go from 620 CE to around 70 CE, the perception on Document 1, merchants from a Christian standpoint was very negative, while Document 2, Islam was very positive. Document 1, from the Christian Bible is quoting something that Jesus says. He states, “It is easier for the camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Merchants sold things to make a profit, and most of them became wealthy doing so; in that time period, wealthy people were considered greedy and greed is a sin in the Christian Bible. Sinner’s do not go to heaven and do not belong in God’s kingdom. But from a different point of view, the Muslim Qur’an, is expressing a much more positive attitude toward merchants in that time period. Document 2 is giving a set of guidelines to follow while trading. If the rules are abided by the document states, “On the day of judgment, the honest, truthful Muslim merchant will take rank with the martyrs of the faith.” In contrast with Christianity the Muslim merchant will go to their “kingdom” if they are honest and…

    Wayne Grudem's Business For The Glory Of God

    One often fails to notice the many opportunities given in business that can bring glory to God. Wayne Grudem writes Business for the Glory of God to show how business is fundamentally connected to bringing glory to God. The book is by no means a complete resource for the Christian businessman or woman, but gives the reader an introduction to some of the very important topics that are relevant in culture. The book is short but is filled with the biblical philosophy and theology in business. Wayne Grudem does not write the book to concentrate on ways businesses can contribute to churches, but the aspects of business that imitate and can bring glory to God. Two subjects in this book will be examined. These two subjects, money and inequalities of wealth, are the focus of chapters six and seven and are of critical importance in a flourishing business model. Grudem writes with the businessperson in mind by keeping the chapters short and straight to the point all while presenting biblical truths that it fit in realm of business.…

    Dbq Essay On Commerce And Trade

    As noted by Ibn Khaldun, he is a Muslim man who strongly disagrees with trade and so the Islamic religion begins to follow in his thoughts. While the Muslims lean away from trade, the Christians begin to accept it into their religion and retract their forbidding of the industry. In document six, which is a document from the Christian point of view, all three letters discuss each person’s opinion on trade. In all of the letters, trade is lauded by the writers but in the first letter, the writer expresses that you can find beautiful and valuable treasures from merchants but if they are not in reasonable price ranges, do not waste time on that one piece of art unless the master artist is in need. In the second letter, a mother writes to her son, who is a merchant, and she tells him that he must embrace the gift that has been given to him from God, that God has blessed him with all of his wealth. She also tells her son that since he has been blessed with his riches, he should not crave for more because he has enough to meet his requirements on living. Finally in the third letter, a man that is ordering wool declares that he shall pay the amount that was asked of him because the profit is in the name of God. In the Islamic religion during the 15th and 16th centuries, trade is becoming frowned upon by an Islamic court decision because the choice made was that it is more important to live…

    Christianity and Trade

    Furthermore, Both Islam and Christianity had a negative attitudes for instance, in the Bible, Jesus preaches to his disciples how a rich man will never reach heaven. This is due to their behavior, for merchants are greedy and lying people whose only content is to get rich, which goes against Christianity’s belief. Moreover, Thomas Aquinas explains how unfair and unjust merchants are for they price their goods higher than what the product actually cost. By the tone of the document as well as how he explains trade and its problems show his dislike. Likewise Ibn Khaldun describes merchants as weak, and disgusting men and how they negatively affect the government. His tone is harsher however, which indicates his anger towards the merchants. Merchants constants rip-off of the people by selling their goods at a high price as well s giving their all their goods to those who pay more. The Islamic Court in Ankara had to deal with a case in which merchants would give all their cotton to a single person, if they pay extra high price in addition to the merchant’s high prices. Document seven contains quotes from that of the people who have complained about the merchants. Both Christianity and Islam share the same pessimistic attitude towards merchants and trade because of their behavior and how they sell their goods. Anyways, I would have like to see a document from a merchant, it would have help me better indicate if merchants were really sneaky and unfair as spoken in the documents given.…

    Greco-Roman Culture Vs Greek Culture

    In the parable, “A Rich Young Man’s Question”, a wealthy man inquires about what it is he should do to make it into heaven. Jesus tells him that he should follow specific commandments and give his wealth to the poor. The man walks away, and Jesus says, “Yes, I tell you that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” (Matthew 19:24 ICB). For a camel to jump through the eye of a needle is physically impossible. Jesus means that to gain entrance into heaven, you must not be like most rich people who think of themselves and do not have a humble heart. Jesus also means that it is not all about the laws that you follow. This relates to the message of Jesus because Jesus says that you have to be countercultural, and by caring more about the type of heart you have rather than the law and physical traits, Jesus is going explicitly against the Greco-Roman concept of ideality and the Jewish strict adherence to the…
