tion. It is fake and cannot be
sustained. It will fail.
Each successive business col-
lapse and government bailout
serves to prove the futility and
impossibility of the system that
man built. It is the greatest
ponzi scheme in the history of
mankind and keeps its victims
enthralled using cheap tricks
and blinders. Its destiny is to go
up in flames.
Ego in Business
The ‘don’t you know who I
am?’ syndrome is a symptom
of pride that is inculcated by
achieving approved milestones
in a manmade system and
being accorded the requisite
accolades that are meant to
satisfy the God-given need for
growing from glory to glory and
from faith to faith. Titles lend
themselves to this process for
the one who is firmly tuned into
the frequency of this world. One
starts off as a junior clerk and
‘works their way “up”’ from posi-
tion to position until they reach
somewhere that satisfies or
offends. Of course if the offense
is to someone ‘more powerful’
one faces the ‘consequences”.
The reward process feeds them
with a false sense of achieve-
ment, which is good for a time,
especially when it is peppered
with things like ‘long service’
awards and ‘employee of the
week or year or month’ awards
and so on. It’s a system that
needs laborers willing to put up
with the futility for the long haul
so that it can sustain itself for
as long as possible. That’s the
reason it is linked closely to the
education system, because the
process of indoctrination must
start early in order to fully be
able to conquer the mind of the

future indentured slave. It’s a
life-long investment.
Ego is activated early and
nurtured and sustained, as
opposed to being gently and
lovingly counseled away, be-
cause it is inherently self-serv- In the Garden of Eden or
ing. It wants the praises of men,
it pushes one to achieve and
gives one the drive to pursue
and overcome hurdles so as to
be seen as being something.
Unfortunately, this pursuit of
self-glorification is what takes
one away from God, from their
true nature and away from their
individual purpose and strength,
tragically even for the entirety
of their lives. But it gives the
capitalist system the fuel that it
needs to move their impossible
creation ahead, moment by
moment and day by day. Ego
is what will allow a billionaire in
dollar terms to deprive employ-
ees of a living that is filled with
dignity and honor, in order to
retain title and position in a sys- that will soon be washed away.

Business is not so
much about buying
and selling 'apples'.
It’s about who does
it best and who they
managed to beat to it
irrespective of how.
God’s ‘Business’
But God’s ‘business’ is to res-
cue man from all this futility and
from all meaningless pursuits.
To expose the world’s value
system for what it is – a fraud
– and to engage His creation in
a return to the Garden of Eden,
where tending and keeping His
purposes and His will is at the
forefront of all that they do. To

value as He values, love as He
loves, live with Him as He lives.
To exchange meaninglessness
and futility, for meaning and
purpose.
Kingdom of God, all needs are
supplied, there is no toiling
or laboring, for one is at rest.
There is no buying or selling, for
each one has everything that
they need provided by the Lov-
ing Father. There is no Ego be-
cause it was submitted to death
by the individual, in exchange
for the Divine Nature, which
is inherently Love. The false
scarcity that is so widely touted
by the world system is obliter-
ated by the absolute Truth of
God and His abundance. There
is no lack. And thus, there is
no “Business as usual”, for the
usual business style that man
has come to align with is noth-
ing but a hoax and a system
to begin to redefine things for
ourselves outside of the clichés
of what we were told things are.
If you care to know and if you
care to understand, Capital-
ism as a system that runs the
entire world is the real face of
Babylon, which is the spirit of
wickedness and spiritual for-
nication. The true Afrikan who
has understanding of Afrika’s
indigenous knowledge knows
that the principle of Ubuntu
which is “I am because you are”
is the true business pattern that
will save man from himself both
now and in the nearest future.
For certainly, we need a new
way of doing business, far from
the corruption called Capitalism.
