The Bible does not require the righteous people of the society, those who have not committed crimes, to carry the financial weight and burden of the ones who have. And what the Bible does is, in some cases, the person simply dies.

00:00:00 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04 because you're spending your cash and your lives
00:00:06 on raising young children
00:00:08 in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:18 And one major way that you can help to expand
00:00:21 the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24 that doesn't cost you a dime
00:00:25 is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28 leaving us a five-star review.
00:00:31 Also, perhaps even more effective than that,
00:00:33 you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36 We hope you'll take the time to do so.
00:00:38 Thank you so much.
00:00:39 God bless.
00:00:41 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:44 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:47 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:52 Exodus chapter 22, verses two through three.
00:00:54 Here's another form of slavery under the old covenant.
00:00:57 God's good righteous law
00:00:59 if a thief is found breaking in
00:01:01 and is struck so that he dies
00:01:03 there shall be no blood guilt for him
00:01:05 let me pause right there
00:01:06 if someone breaks into your home
00:01:10 to steal your property
00:01:12 or to do harm to your family
00:01:14 and you
00:01:16 you strike that individual
00:01:20 the criminal 0.98
00:01:20 in such a way that they die
00:01:23 you don't get sued
00:01:25 our culture is insane
00:01:30 that's a real thing in our culture today that's a real thing in our society
00:01:36 people breaking in to steal someone protecting their property
00:01:41 and then getting sued by the family of the criminal
00:01:45 and they win not in god's good righteous perfect law
00:01:51 if a thief is found breaking in and struck so that he dies there shall be
00:01:55 no blood guilt for him. Amen. But if the sun has risen on him, there shall be blood guilt
00:02:01 for him. He shall surely pay. He will pay, not the person who owns the property, who
00:02:08 is being stolen from. Isaiah says, woe to the culture, woe to the nation that calls
00:02:14 good evil and evil good. That reverses God's justice and righteousness. No, the thief shall
00:02:24 pay he shall surely pay if he has nothing well how does he pay then he shall be sold for his theft
00:02:33 not thrown in prison so that those who don't steal now have to pay extra taxes for his food
00:02:43 his room and board no it's not what the bible teaches the bible doesn't have jails the bible
00:02:50 gives more dignity to man.
00:02:53 The Bible doesn't treat man like
00:02:54 livestock. The Bible doesn't
00:02:56 treat a man like an animal.
00:02:59 The Bible gives swift, fair 0.98
00:03:00 justice, which does 0.98
00:03:02 not require the righteous 1.00
00:03:04 people of the society, those who have
00:03:06 not committed crimes, to carry
00:03:08 the financial weight and burden
00:03:10 of those who have. And what the Bible 0.66
00:03:12 does is, in some cases,
00:03:15 the person simply dies.
00:03:17 The death penalty
00:03:18 is invoked, depending on the crime.
00:03:21 In other cases, the person is publicly
00:03:22 flogged and beaten. And then they're allowed
00:03:25 to go free. We say that's so unjust, that's so
00:03:27 humiliating, that takes a person's dignity
00:03:29 more than spending the rest
00:03:31 of your life in a jail cell wearing an
00:03:33 orange uniform
00:03:34 where you can't see your family
00:03:37 and every time your children come
00:03:39 and see you, they're reminded of the
00:03:41 crime you committed. You can never
00:03:43 rebuild your reputation,
00:03:45 you can never rebuild your home
00:03:47 and your family? No, that, that is what steals a man's dignity. So biblical law says, depending on
00:03:54 the crime, if it's murder, life for a life, the penalty is death. If it's something lesser, it's a
00:04:00 public beating, then you go free. And if it's theft, the Bible teaches not that you go to jail,
00:04:07 but you actually pay the person back, double restitution. You pay back what you stole, plus
00:04:13 times two. And
00:04:15 if you don't have the money, then
00:04:17 you work for them.
00:04:20 You don't go to jail
00:04:21 so that they now work for you,
00:04:24 aka working a job, paying taxes
00:04:25 for your meals.
00:04:27 How does that make sense?
00:04:29 You don't get punished where
00:04:31 they now work for you. No, they,
00:04:33 the person who stole, they're going to work
00:04:35 for the person they were stealing from.
00:04:38 God is really wise,
00:04:40 is He not?
00:04:41 We would do well to follow.
00:04:43 his wisdom, his law. Can I be frank with you for just a second right here at the end? Look,
00:04:49 some of you guys, you're financially supporting this ministry. And from the bottom of my heart,
00:04:54 I say, thank you. I cannot thank you enough. However, some of you, you just, you can't afford
00:05:01 it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it. Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe
00:05:07 Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds 0.99
00:05:16 over the last three years due to COVID. We have written checks that we simply cannot cash. It
00:05:23 doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession. We are living in a recession
00:05:29 right now regardless. Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store.
00:05:36 You cannot support financially this ministry at this time, nor should you, but you could
00:05:43 still help us tremendously.
00:05:45 I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time.
00:05:51 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever
00:05:57 that might be.
00:05:58 This is the way the system works.
00:06:00 We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers.
00:06:04 We need to be strategic.
00:06:06 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people.
00:06:11 And the Word of God and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of
00:06:18 life gets out there.
00:06:20 Help us get it out there.
00:06:22 Thanks for tuning in.
