(October 23, 2014 at 10:03 pm)Christian Wrote: As Christians, we are to place our trust and security in God and not in savings fund (1 Tim. 6:17). This does not mean that it is unwise to have savings or even an emergency credit card, if justified, but it should not be our security or constant “go to” in times of trouble. If you can trust a credit card to be there for you when times are tough, you can trust God to help you establish an emergency fund as well.Matthew 6:34, "Take no thought for the morrow...". The suggested model of christianity here cares naught for frugality, forethought or long-term strategy. The idea being that God will provide.
Given the evidence from christian countries where starvation is common-place, I'd suggest that you avoid this model.
Sum ergo sum
