Text: Ecclesiastes 5:8-9
Speaker: Tony de la Riva
--
In Solomon's day, three-thousand years ago, good economic policy looked like a king staying out of his citizens' hair and protecting them instead of trying to control them. In the West in 2025, that's still the case. God has designed government to do one thing: bear the sword for the protection of its people and the peace of society. When it does that, it enables and allows them to be what God designed people to be—namely, as creative and productive as possible with the means, the resources, and the opportunities he has providentially given us.
