The New Testament repeats and develops this doctrine. Those within the covenant see the source of wealth as obedience to God's law. Those without the covenant see the source of wealth as lying, cheating, stealing, and means which are the opposite the Lord's commands. A will to dominate and control property is built into every fiber of our being. It is in their nature.
All men seek dominion, and warfare rages inside every man about how wealth is best generated.
This warfare continues in our environment, in the workplace, in the political realm, and especially in our churches. Faithful covenant-keepers will ultimately win ownership and control of the world's wealth, but it will be a victory of faith, not science. The majority of wealth and power is not today in the hands of Christians. Disobedience has caused the Lord to make us servants of the enemies of our faith. We serve many who call themselves believers in God, but who constantly seek wealth by violating God's covenant.
