Talking about mammon is "unspiritual" says the typical modern pragmatic Christian

I've been accused, albeit indirectly, of being "unspiritual" and "earthly" by speaking about the global debt system and evil mammonised capitalist system. These accusations have been made on the ground that the capitalist system will fade away. Yes, I know.  I do not deny that as one particular person tries to imply about me as she lectures me indirectly about been "earthly". She missed the point of what I was doing.  Completely. I am the one seeking to expose the spirit of mammon and explaining how he operates. That this blog exists is itself an indictment against the mammonisation of the church and its blindness to the spirit, in allowing itself to be under his influence. Such is an indictment! 

Yet, most Christians take no issue at all when someone makes a Biblical critique of liberalism, feminism, socialism, communism or any other ungodly evil ideology. Why is capitalism treated as a sacred cow within the modern church? Most of those Christians who object to even a Biblical critique of capitalism would be most happy to accept a Biblical critique of liberalism, feminism, socialism or communism

That the mere existence of this blog offends people indicates that mammon is being exposed. Why do you hate this blog, Christian? This is because it convicts you of seeking to rely on your own strength and not fully trust God in all things, allowing yourself to be under the spirit of mammon.

Talking about mammon is very spiritual. See Matthew 6:24. Jesus said that no one can serve two masters, both God and mammon. You will hate one and love the other. Failing to fully trust God itself is a hatred of God. Sin itself is a hatred of God. 

When King David sinned, God said to him: "Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife" (2 Samuel 12:10). Sin itself, including the most respectable sin of the modern church, anxiety, is hatred of God. To argue that sin itself is not hatred of God is to blaspheme God by claiming to not hate Him, while sinning. It is to twist His Word and an attempt to remold His perfect Holiness. 

To even be anxious about one's earthly needs is  to despise God. The reason why most in the modern church cannot see this is because they are under the spirit of mammon in being anxious for their earthly needs. What is the root of anxiety? Pride of life. As simple as that.

Signs of a Person under the spirit of mammon

Both the unsaved and saved can be under the spirit of mammon. Do not be deceived! An unsaved person can only serve mammon because it is not part of his nature to submit to God in any way (Romans 8:7). However, the Christian can most definitely yield to the temptations of mammon just as he can yield to the temptations of satan. This is what is means for a Christian to be under the spirit of mammon. The signs of a person being under the spirit of mammon are: The person does not understand the spirit of mammon. This is because he or she is blinded by it and therefore cannot see it. The person reacts whenever being confronted with being told that they are under the spirit of mammon, or being told that they may be under it. This is not the person themselves reacting, but the spirit of mammon reacting. The person is self-satisfied with the abundance that they have. This is especially the case with many Christians today. They are happy with having a family, a well-paying job, security

Two types of contentment

The world seeks contentment. It seeks to be contented in pursuit of all kinds of things, whether it be money, health, wealth, romance, sex, careers or family. It does not necessarily seek after riches to be content. However, that one does not seek after money as the first priority, but other things that are typically associated with good traditional values, such as family, does not in any way mean that one is content in the godly sense. By no means! A person can be a "conservative" and "religious" but just as earthly as the "liberal". There are two types of contentment: earthly contentment and godly contentment. Earthly contentment finds its fulfillment and satisfaction in things that are passing away, not necessarily money, but also things like family, education and children. Yes, that's right. Many professing American Christians think that they could never be under the spirit of mammon because they care for their families and love their families, a

The spirit behind Debt, the spirit of Mammon, seeks to Blind, Control, Enslave and Dominate by debt

Many people just cannot understand what usury is for what it is. Thus, in order for people to understand what exactly usury is, they must be made to understand debt first. Debt is not merely money to be repaid. It has power. Debt indeed is power, which comes from a source not from God: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).  One can discern that debt has a power behind it if one uses one's godly discernment. Debt brings spiritual bondage to a person, not merely financial bondage, but spiritual bondage. The real issue with debt for all people whether unsaved or saved is that it keeps people from fully serving God. It is a spiritual stronghold of mammon that panders to the flesh, to make a God-hater even more hostile against God, by feeding on his flesh to increase its appetite even more. It is also a spiritual stronghold
