End Game Economics: Understanding the Financial Crisis through Scripture

It's not a game, but we are all players. Understanding can save your life. Does the Bible explain the world today and in particular the economic conditions that prevail? Can Scripture give us foresight into the financial crisis that has engulfed the world? Has God in His infinite wisdom and understanding given us a guide to knowing His end game? The prophet Amos wrote, "Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets" (Amos 3:7). It is God's desire that His purposes be known to his people through the prophets, or the writings of the prophets handed down to us. Though our ideas of the end game are not exactly alike, most Christians would agree that something dramatic must happen for the church, God's servants, to rise up from their slumber and fulfill the commission that Christ gave as He ascended back to heaven. The Bible contains keen insight into the conditions of the world today, the nature of the human heart and our attitudes towards wealth. The Scriptures give us a vision of what is to come. The Bible prophecies tell of a great financial crisis as we approach the end game.
