There are so many similarities between the Messiah message o-f two horses and the current monetary situation. It all boils down to one lesson and that lesson seems to be getting farther away as we travel in time from the Crucifixion.

In modern times we speak of foreign deficits, deficit spending, trade imbalance, overextended credit, inflation and many other terms too many to list. All of these terms are related to the idea that it takes a complex structure of money to survive. Any person would have a hard time explaining life without succor. It does take money in one form or another to purchase food to live. At least that is the way it appears. Beyond that all money goes towards material goods or services related to life enhancement. Here we are back to the Messiahs message that the birds and lilies are taken care of by God and worrying about what we shall eat or how we shall dress has been long surpassed.

On one hand we have some sects and religious orders who spend and inordinate amount of time concentrating on which foods to eat and which to ignore. Each dogma has its own philosophy and quotes scripture for its own end. All cannot be right. Scripture is explicit in implying that we are NOT TO WORRY about such things, as God will provide for us.

Extreme examples of this sort of obsession with food and dress are:
1. Not using herbal tinctures for curative properties because they contain alcohol.
Alcoholism is a distinct problem in this world. Bodies become tolerant to its calming property, thereby making it an addictive compound yet taken in moderation, it is innocuous. All things in moderation.

2. No eating of meat. In Judaism pork is dis-allowed. In many western sects, all meats are discourage because they enhance chances for cancer etal.
All things in moderation. Man has been eating meat for millenniums. Indeed it has been "proven" that certain cancers and diseases of the blood are enhanced by intake of meat and its byproducts. No person wants cancer, yet it seems no person wants to die. Why should death be a fear? IF we truly believe the Messiahs words then we should have no concern for cancer. Certainly we do not rush towards death, yet we should not be afraid of it either. Notwithstanding the prior, instances of cancer are not as high as we would believe. European and eastern peoples eat meats in lower quantities than those of us in the west and their instance of cancer is lower, yet they do eat meat. There is no scriptural reference which forbids carnivore meals. We are back again to the edict not to worry about our food!

The body is the earthly temple of the Spirit. It is our responsibility to respect the body but not to worship it. Ultimately the body is carbon based and returns to dust and other earthly material while our Spirit survives. We must respect the body until the Spirit acknowledges its own existence. At that time, in similar respects to John the Baptist and Christ, one shall increase while the other decrease.

In all money matters such as those of the world bank and the stock market, an earthly attempt is made to control minds in non—Spiritual matters. We may two masters. We may not ride   two horses. While it takes money to  survive the earthly life. It is not our God. All matters of money have become completely out of  hand while we have let our compassion for those needy to take a back seat.  Rich earthly wealth takes form by the wish of the people. Money longer exists except as a concept and that concept is changeable from digital existence in a computerized bank, to a state of the
art compact disk. We may see the paycheck but visualize many forms of material possession. This obsession with many forms of money detracts from our Spirit. It is there in our soul that we have compassion for the truly needy and those in mental and physical pain. To be sympathetic to others is the food of the Spirit. Anything else is to ride the horse of manna. This goes beyond any laws of thermodynamics. This goes contrary to the Word of God.

In the times of the Messiah he told us Caesars' picture was on the coin...so "Render under Caesar what is Caesars'." What is on today's money? An Eagle. The word God. Some hay. A few presidents! Who do we give this money to? This money comes from the bodies of government of our nation. This is not our measure of wealth. Our measure of wealth is in how great is our Spirit. Give freely of yourselves and all the rest shall follow. Money is paper and metal; nothing else. It is not a way to keep score. Living life simply without "technology or progress" is the path to a greater Spirit. Living life for the sake of paper and metal is for the enhancement of the body.

It is important to remember this in all things. Hate the sin. Love the sinner. And do not judge what is sin and which is not, yet be aware of Spiritual needs of others. If we are compassionate towards others, then we enhance the Spirit of all lives by obeying Moses Commandment.. "Love thy neighbor as thyself!"

To heal the body is one matter. To heal the mind of its obsession with money and related matters is also explicit in the Messiahs example in Gospels. When a young man asked how he may see the kingdom of heaven the Messiah said, "Sell all you have. Give the money to the poor and follow me!" The young man balked, as he worshipped money and his possessions, rationalizing that his father had slaved for years to pass them on to him. In our "following" of the Messiahs example, the message is that we must throw off the chains of materialism and follow the Spirit.
