Is God A Capitalist? Gregory B Grinstead

Gregory B Grinstead has written an easy to read explanation of why Free Enterprise is the only moral system of finance. In just 12 chapters - 142 pages, he has given Christians a Biblical foundation for conservatism in the 21st Century. He uses the Bible's Morality as a foundation and expands with 20th Century facts to prove that the Bible's principles work in real-life politics. If you have ever wondered if God specifically says what His choice for government and finance is, this book uses God's own words to answer the question. Chapter one starts with Adam working in the Garden of Eden and how this righteous work ethic has been attacked by anti-capitalists. Chapter Two, Three and Four explore God's view of property ownership and the righteousness of free markets. Chapter Three explores God's choice of man's government systems and the specific qualities of that system. Chapter Five uses historical facts to disprove the top 7 complaints against Capitalism. And Chapter Six lists 7 reasons Socialism corrupts men's souls. The real world facts are footnoted and then backed up by scripture. The book ends with Chapter Eleven and Twelve exploring God's warnings about riches and what God's Social Safety Net would look like. The author uses today's statistics when exploring concepts such as; The rich get richer while the poor get poorer. Free Markets are not fair. No one should own the land. Free markets produce the most generosity. This is a timely book because many Christians are confused about the issues of big government and socialism that now dominate our country's politics. Is it right to take from the 1% and give to the poor in our country? God's Words tell us the answer.
