The Seal of Solomon is the fourth symbo0l of the poetic equation of Creation. The "equation" begins with two triangles , one pointing upward, one pointing downword (taken by the Egyptians in constructing the "mirrror image" of Heaven..... the pyramids). These symbols originated in the vast storehouse library of information found in Heaven and called the Tree of Knowledge.
And because it came from the Holy Place, it was revered as awe inspiring, A symbol that supossedly "resonates" with the individual soul : resonates as Holy and RIGHT. My point is simply that just because something comes from the Garden, from the Tree, does not make it "Holy." The Thorn (error in interpretation) has been called Lucifer.... bringer of light. This Thornof Error/Lucifer brings forth darkness from the light. And because it comes from the Holy place..... it instills faith bey9nd doubt...... faith in a lie.

Is money evil?
Absolutely not...... so long as the persuit of it does not consume you Money becomes like the chains of slavery..... like alcohol and cocaine...... one day it will be your turn to pay. God wants us to have a wonderful and happy life ......albeit a simple and fairly modest happy life. If your church is a gathering of loving and caring people, people who share their gifts with those brothers and sisters less fortunate... then tithe as best you can without burdening yourself or your family.
There was a commercial on the "religeous" channel yesterday..... selling one man's life long study of the Bible. "Put it on your credit card," the announcer said. "Only 1200 dollars. Or make 20 easy payments of......." Sorry, but that kind of "selling" is akin to the money changers in the Temple. It does not belong even in the same breath as Christianity.

What about money and God?
The "return" on your gifts to others in need is in the form of joy..... it's that inner glow that you get when you truly give of yourself to others.... and, while we're on the subject, that inner smile that you feel.... That is God saying, "thank you."
Many churches have turned themselves into "Prosper Colleges," with their center focus on money and power. You are told that God wants you to be prosperous, even wealthy..... all you have to do is give money to the church and you will receive ten times more in m9ney back. God is not an investment house like Merril Lynch or Morgan Stanley. He's not a bank, and He's not the Lotto. Some churches are selling i
the dream of wealth and success through God..... with the church being the beneficiary of your cash. Pardon me, but getting "rich" is not the point. "It is easier for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle, than to enter Heaven." Jesus was spot on with that thought. Do not become a slave to Mamon...... Do not send your hard earned money into the pockets of deceivers. Give only to those truly worthy of giving...... THEN you will receive His smile of appreciation. That is the greatest RETURN on earth.
