Money (Normal Christian Worker Chapter 9/10 Nee Faithful in Money Matters)
Nee's section on the money stuff
Seems ya-da-ya-da, not enough
To feed the hearts and minds today
As people of Christ Jesus' "Way".For it's been bent way out of shape
For centuries, in West it's fake;
So maybe Mishna, Talmud is
The route to follow in this biz.Not as it's present in our land
As currently Jews understand
Their lit and situation now,
But in Christ's time which books allow.For they were written down 'bout then
(As retrospective view), but bend
With agile flexibility
Down to our day resourcefully.So if we go back to that time,
Submit our thoughts to former minds,
To see what was astir back then,
When Gospel writers used to their pens Then maybe we can comprehend
A better pix of what such men
And women heard in Gentile lands
Through hermeneutics understand Such factors as the likes of Nee
Perceived, applied, so all can be
Enriched and guided on our way
In what we think, and do, and say.Thanks for spirit for this.
