The economy is like building a jigsaw puzzle without being able to look at a picture of what the final result will be. God’s design is for his own glory and the flourishing of his creation. This is then manifested through humankind’s advance towards the future‚ our creativity‚ and acting together as a community. Genesis 2:15 states that we as a species were created to work. She also gave the example of Matthew 25 and the parable of the talents. This demonstrates that we all have different abilities

People love reading and watching exciting stories of “gods” portrayed by cute actors‚ but‚ beyond youthful lust‚ most don’t bother to go further than Russell Crowe’s cute nose‚ much less in seeing the difference between the truth of the Bible and the pantheist beliefs of some stories‚ and how they can affect their lives.
