Is this world for sale.. and if so, who owns it?

Is there really a mine and yours?

This note is in response to what I daily see and hear all around me. The now long embedded idea that this earth, this universe is for sale to the highest bidder. We already have companies offering trips into space; soon the moon will have Hilton hotels, casinos, etc., then mars, then??? Who gave anyone permission or the idea that they own or can own any of this?

If we do not control our lusts there will be nothing left for generations to come... This lust to own is a manifestation of the sense of entitlement many have, thinking that the world is theirs to buy and own if they have the money to do so...

This idea that having “made it” entities us to take, own, destroy or horde is the manifestation of a sociality, a world soo caught up in “mine mine mine” that there is no room for the rest of us... At this moment there is an antique car action going on, selling cars I personally have purchased in my youth for pennies, now for hundreds of thousands of dollars... meanwhile millions suffer, but these “made ones” only seek to satisfy their lusts.... Oh yes some of them give, but only under the advice of their accountants who help them steal from all of us by playing with the tax laws...

No one should own a tree, a piece of property, a drop of the ocean or a star in the sky, these are all community property. The desire to own will soon blow up in all of our faces as these things become more and more hard to own, as these items literally “run out”... Sorry to say, but human beings will not put up with this, they will rebel. Those on their estates will not have enough money to protect themselves from the thousands who will be at their door demanding their piece of the pie. This is what is on the horizon... wake up folks... Revolution is just around the corner...

And btw:... this same scenario will play itself out as sick people will also show up at doctors’ offices and hospitals with guns demanding their sick and dying loved ones receive the care they need/deserve. People... where is your compassion?

Sorry my friends, but if someone doesn’t yell fire all of our asses will soon burn... Be well...gi

Hi, Gabriel. First I would like to say, blessed be the United States of America that we can still share our opinions.
I want to share that you are very correct in alot of what you have shared. We are super selfish. Most care for nothing but them and their own. There has been human suffering from the beginning. Widows, orphans, sick... but what you are recounting when you say, "Thousands will be at their door demanding their piece of the pie", has played out throughout history. Revolution, violence. Not a surprise or anything new.

Now I would like to share something else that is definatly not new either, but something that seems to always get pushed aside in place of ideas that humans think they are the author of. The Bible. God. I'm not talking about the watered down religions that have now become so common in this country and around the world. I am talking about the bible. The best seller of all time. The bible, that has been accurate in thousands of prophesies. In fact,"No archeological discovery has ever controverted a Biblical reference. Scores of archeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible. And, by the same token, proper evaluation of Biblical descriptions has often led to amazing discoveries." My point is that if we really want to change things, we should stop trying to play God and start learning what God has to say about all of this devistations and selfish behavior. As men, we are all falible and we all fall short. We need to turn our attention to God's word and start to pray for ourselves and others. Love our enemy. This is true unselfishness. The bible tell us that it is easy to love those who love us, but it is devine to love those who do bad to us. You want to get UNSELFISH? Try to love your enemy. Here is certainly where we can start. Try to find good in everyone. I fall short. I could probably find something to critisize in everyone I know, including me, but love is trying to find the good in people, wow what a new (old) idea.
Gabriel, you are correct when you say that these doctors and governments and pharma. giants better watch out. Justice is comming and they should be worried about being judged for what they have done. We should too. Instead of me playing God and judging their actions, I choose to read the bible and pray for them. Love them. The reason they are soooo selfish is that they have never experianced God's love. They don't know because most have put so much importance on being proud in the eye's of other men. They have studied their professions and gotten their impressive degrees so they can look proud and make THEIR money. They forgot about the most important things. Knowing God's word, loving other men by helping them, and sharing resouces. The resource which are really not ours anyway. All of our resources belong to God almighty. Maybe we should, "First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."(Mat. 7:5) Look it up. As the "Lord's payer" states,(by the way, the Lord's Prayer was taught in the Bible by Jesus) " And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors." Mat. 6:12.
Let us pray for us all, that God forgives us and them. I pray that we all start to assign importance to God and start to Love the way He loved us. Look up John 3:16. Never truer words have rung in my ears. Our ways and our thoughts are not God's.
"For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? What will a man gove in exchange for his soul?
Who owns the world? God does, but He has lent it to us to Glorify Him. How have I Glorified Him today?
With Love to all of you!
