For so long it has been institutionally and culturally accepted to be in debt. But what do these pictures have in common.
From Britain to America to Asia, people are rising up and protesting debt as being normal and accepted. Why is this happening?
“Just as the rich rule over the poor, so the borrower becomes the lender’s servant.” Pvbs 22:7
It is quite interesting after reading that verse from the Bible that God cautions us away from debt just as the protesters are doing. Taking the verse into context of the whole chapter of Proverbs, one could say that only a fool would be in debt. However, in today’s current economic systems and philosophies, debt is the main instrument of economic success of the entire world.
What happens to an economic system that is based on what God considers foolish?
