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.

00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01.940 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04.620 because you're spending your cash and your lives
00:00:06.920 on raising young children
00:00:08.540 in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.560 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.700 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.220 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:18.840 And one major way that you can help to expand
00:00:21.600 the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.000 that doesn't cost you a dime
00:00:25.720 is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28.060 leaving us a five-star review.
00:00:31.180 Also, perhaps even more effective than that,
00:00:33.980 you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.400 We hope you'll take the time to do so.
00:00:38.320 Thank you so much.
00:00:39.580 God bless.
00:00:41.720 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:44.520 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:47.540 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:52.380 Exodus chapter 22, verses two through three.
00:00:54.780 Here's another form of slavery under the old covenant.
00:00:57.420 God's good righteous law
00:00:59.380 if a thief is found breaking in
00:01:01.460 and is struck so that he dies
00:01:03.340 there shall be no blood guilt for him
00:01:05.280 let me pause right there
00:01:06.480 if someone breaks into your home
00:01:10.200 to steal your property
00:01:12.840 or to do harm to your family
00:01:14.840 and you
00:01:16.940 you strike that individual
00:01:20.220 the criminal 0.98
00:01:20.820 in such a way that they die
00:01:23.260 you don't get sued
00:01:25.920 our culture is insane
00:01:30.800 that's a real thing in our culture today that's a real thing in our society
00:01:36.900 people breaking in to steal someone protecting their property
00:01:41.260 and then getting sued by the family of the criminal
00:01:45.160 and they win not in god's good righteous perfect law
00:01:51.240 if a thief is found breaking in and struck so that he dies there shall be
00:01:55.420 no blood guilt for him. Amen. But if the sun has risen on him, there shall be blood guilt
00:02:01.900 for him. He shall surely pay. He will pay, not the person who owns the property, who
00:02:08.120 is being stolen from. Isaiah says, woe to the culture, woe to the nation that calls
00:02:14.620 good evil and evil good. That reverses God's justice and righteousness. No, the thief shall
00:02:24.180 pay he shall surely pay if he has nothing well how does he pay then he shall be sold for his theft
00:02:33.900 not thrown in prison so that those who don't steal now have to pay extra taxes for his food
00:02:43.220 his room and board no it's not what the bible teaches the bible doesn't have jails the bible
00:02:50.480 gives more dignity to man.
00:02:53.080 The Bible doesn't treat man like
00:02:54.740 livestock. The Bible doesn't
00:02:56.820 treat a man like an animal.
00:02:59.020 The Bible gives swift, fair 0.98
00:03:00.760 justice, which does 0.98
00:03:02.840 not require the righteous 1.00
00:03:04.720 people of the society, those who have
00:03:06.780 not committed crimes, to carry
00:03:08.720 the financial weight and burden
00:03:10.800 of those who have. And what the Bible 0.66
00:03:12.700 does is, in some cases,
00:03:15.180 the person simply dies.
00:03:17.460 The death penalty
00:03:18.400 is invoked, depending on the crime.
00:03:21.300 In other cases, the person is publicly
00:03:22.940 flogged and beaten. And then they're allowed
00:03:25.060 to go free. We say that's so unjust, that's so
00:03:27.080 humiliating, that takes a person's dignity
00:03:29.220 more than spending the rest
00:03:31.200 of your life in a jail cell wearing an
00:03:33.020 orange uniform
00:03:34.280 where you can't see your family
00:03:37.260 and every time your children come
00:03:39.120 and see you, they're reminded of the
00:03:41.080 crime you committed. You can never
00:03:43.120 rebuild your reputation,
00:03:45.440 you can never rebuild your home
00:03:47.120 and your family? No, that, that is what steals a man's dignity. So biblical law says, depending on
00:03:54.100 the crime, if it's murder, life for a life, the penalty is death. If it's something lesser, it's a
00:04:00.880 public beating, then you go free. And if it's theft, the Bible teaches not that you go to jail,
00:04:07.340 but you actually pay the person back, double restitution. You pay back what you stole, plus
00:04:13.660 times two. And
00:04:15.620 if you don't have the money, then
00:04:17.840 you work for them.
00:04:20.700 You don't go to jail
00:04:21.840 so that they now work for you,
00:04:24.080 aka working a job, paying taxes
00:04:25.920 for your meals.
00:04:27.560 How does that make sense?
00:04:29.580 You don't get punished where
00:04:31.780 they now work for you. No, they,
00:04:33.860 the person who stole, they're going to work
00:04:35.540 for the person they were stealing from.
00:04:38.740 God is really wise,
00:04:40.240 is He not?
00:04:41.920 We would do well to follow.
00:04:43.660 his wisdom, his law. Can I be frank with you for just a second right here at the end? Look,
00:04:49.500 some of you guys, you're financially supporting this ministry. And from the bottom of my heart,
00:04:54.080 I say, thank you. I cannot thank you enough. However, some of you, you just, you can't afford
00:05:01.120 it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it. Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe
00:05:07.460 Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds 0.99
00:05:16.480 over the last three years due to COVID. We have written checks that we simply cannot cash. It
00:05:23.660 doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession. We are living in a recession
00:05:29.260 right now regardless. Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store.
00:05:36.360 You cannot support financially this ministry at this time, nor should you, but you could
00:05:43.140 still help us tremendously.
00:05:45.440 I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time.
00:05:51.360 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever
00:05:57.500 that might be.
00:05:58.760 This is the way the system works.
00:06:00.820 We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers.
00:06:04.660 We need to be strategic.
00:06:06.920 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people.
00:06:11.880 And the Word of God and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of
00:06:18.640 life gets out there.
00:06:20.720 Help us get it out there.
00:06:22.420 Thanks for tuning in.
