Capitalism is such a dirty word to many, but should it be? Are there economic principles in the Bible? What about "eating the rich?"
On this episode, we pose the question, "Is Capitalism Biblical?" We spend time defining capitalism, a few major contrasts to socialism, and a breadth of Scripture to address whether or not this worldview is biblical. There have been debates all over America in the evangelical church about which economic system is the best, and that's only been exacerbated during election season. Our hope is that as you listen, you grow in a knowledge of God and his Word as well as helping you to see this topic from a biblical framework.
The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis. The 17:17 podcast seeks to teach the truth of God's Word in a way that is glorifying to God and easy to understand with the hope of furthering God's kingdom in Spirit and in Truth.
