Principles of economic restoration

A series of articles written by John Eagles.

When you look up definitions for the word 'economy,' you'll find rather different ones.

For example, Dictionary.com defines 'economic' as:

... pertaining to the production, distribution, and use of income, wealth, and commodities.

Merriam-Webster gives as one of several definitions about 'economy':

... the management of household or private affairs and especially expenses.

Here, 'economy' will be understood in a similar way, putting emphasis on the 'fair distribution' of things, in a family, tribe, nation or the world. Often the word 'business' will appear. It's used in the meaning of 'a creative enterprise producing and distributing things.'

In the following articles we shall search for the original meaning of 'economy' and 'business.' In that original sense, there must be considered the meaning in relation to our own restoration. We all have bodies and we all need food and things around us. How can we create or produce, sell or distribute these things in an original way? How do these matters relate to our own course of becoming a better and more mature person?

The meaning of business

Article
In the English language, business originally would mean: to be busy. Because fallen people are all the time busy with doing only one thing, to make money, business came to mean: to acquire money. Money represents God’s creation. Therefore, business concerns man’s relationship to creation. (February 2, 1986)
