Serve into your blog Beatitude Text: &Laquo; A lot of people dream about being rich. Often when the occasion of a festival welcome friends and friends wish them wealth. At the same time often hear the question: can be rich – it is something badSin? Or this: how to get rich? Let's try to answer these questions, and not only in relation to single individuals, but also communities. Not everyone can be rich. People have different talents, among them – times more in what own, that is rich. Like all other talents, that talent also comes from God. So, obviously, was a rich manhave an appropriate relationship to their Creator. If wealth is acquired through honest and God these talents, be rich, of course, is not a sin, one might even say that it is a blessing to man and his environment. Any human community is useful to have rich people. Here as an example: in the US museums, galleries, theaters, symphony orchestras and andnshi cultural institutions and numerous charitable initiatives organizes and holds no state, but rich. In passing mention of the role of rich people in public life, and is known for in history. We often use the word « & raquo ;, oligarch to describe a very rich man who through his property has a great impact on society.It is necessary to clarify the meaning of the term. We know a variety of government: monarchy, democracy and oligarchy. A classic example of oligarchy is Venetska Republic of the Middle Ages, which ruled against the state ’ united wealthy citizens. They set a goal that the republic must be militarily strong, with high culture, one word – care about the common good. Those responsible statesmen called oligarchs. I do not think you have to be very smart to understand that the Ukrainian reality mistakenly use the word « & raquo ;. oligarch In developed countries, rich people invest in the industry, and it certainly is useful both for themselves and for the state. But, stressesMo, these investors care about workers. This example is Belgium where business owners care that each employee had proper housing and everything else needed for a normal family life. And in North America, which experienced a bitter period of the industrial revolution, the worker receives sufficient salary to the very organismwool proper life for their family. All this would be under question if the state was not honest or at least clever rich people. The name of this material we asked the question: how to be rich? For wealth must be seen as, and, in fact primarily in BC ’ communication of God and man. Wealth as such, although it is something good, but aqochas carries certain dangers. Recall several of these dangers. First, wealth can be harmful to the richest people and its environment. The biggest disaster for a rich man – is to think that she does not need God, that everything can and all that she allowed. This position expresses a popular phrase « everything in the world can buy & raquo ;. Our SaviorJesus called truly happy those poor in spirit (cf.. Matt. 5, 3), that is people who know the origin of wealth and how to use it according to God's will. And those rich people who consider themselves exempt from the law of God and the realities of human life, – sharply condemned and called fools (cf. Lk. 12, 19). Secondly, the risk multiwation seen in relation to other people. On the one hand, it may be using people for their own benefit, humiliation of their dignity or even abuse them. On the other – disregard for human rights by bribing people for their own benefit. Examples do not need to look far, we have enough of them in their native land. Thirdly, it pretendeding some alleged special value and importance of their own personytilky that it takes great wealth. Sometimes it comes to the ridiculous. This writer had the opportunity to visit the house very rich man and see just such oddity: all metal parts of the plumbing in the bathroom were gilded. Dear readers! In these few paragraphs we tried withhematychno answer the question posed at the beginning. You could say far more, but let what is written will serve as an introduction to solid reflection. Thank you for your comments, which make the reader think about how his wealth and media may serve Ukraine & raquo ;.Source: http://artlife.rv.ua/
