LOVE What is the definition of love?
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 1 Corinthians 13:4
The definition above says a lot there is no perfect definition as this one.
People tend to make amendments which prevails to what love is and bad paint it without understanding.
I know there are many types of love but this explanation is the perfect one and it is biblical. You become a slave because you are forced sometimes you become slave of what you love.

SERVING MONEY We know the story of temptation of Jesus I will not get into it so much but I will point out some important facts in many bible stories.
• The spirit took Jesus to the mountaintop then he met with Satan. He said to him do you see this city? It can be all yours if you bow to me. • Money put you on the throne for you to bow down to it. • Judas sold Jesus to the high priests. • Judas was money bag holder he was yelling to the women who washed Jesus’ feet with a high valued perfume. • Jesus whipped all traders & sellers in the temple high priests were furious when they heard what Jesus did in the temple, because they served money than God. • A woman was brought to Jesus because she was a prostitute. • Solders were paid to secure Jesus’ tomb. • People were paid to spread lies about Jesus’ resurrection. • Israelites were sold to other nations.
Now let us turn the perspective in the present can we? 11

Our sisters give up themselves into sex work because of what? The security money is offering, fear of going back to their poor home situations. Love they wished for but could not get from their boyfriends and parents, money showed them but it did not give them love. Our children are not safe in our communities why? They are forced to serve “Money” Let us go to the entertainment industries what is their message? SERVE MONEY how? Let me show how In all music videos all artists are flashing Money out telling that money is the solution to all problems and you are a king once you posses money. Also they are selling sex which is adultery. Let us see our mighty May WEATHER he even said it to the world ‘’I fight for nothing other than MONEY” what is he saying? He simply saying to us Money is his god.

Love & Relationship are pure as snow without money Jesus gave clear instructions on how family should be but we broke the command.

Men’s Family Structure
Head of men – Money Men submit to Money Women submit and respect Money Children submit and respect Money only
That is why many Relationships die before they go anywhere in life because both couples, they do not have love for themselves but for money.
Young girls now their aim is money in the relationships The scary part is parents encourage their children to look for money from men not who the men is.
That is the very reason there is people who call themselves blessers. Prostitution & Adultery occurs because of lack of true love In many young relationships we find many conflicts and death because the foundation of their relationships was and is money.

They did not build their foundation on God’s laws also he is not their center of their relationships. As God said for a man who builds his house without inviting me in his plans he is building for nothing. So many houses are nothing because there is no core center. Honestly there is no Head anymore in our relationships and marriages.
Men can have stability but without money he is seen as nothing.
Forgetting money does not make a man but the values & characteristics that make him men.

THANKS GIVING
It is heart breaking to see how humanity derives from its creator. For everything we accomplished it hurts when many people who are and were suffering before, once they are being helped how easily they forget to say thank you.
The worst part is parents are ignoring this lesson of thanks giving; to teach their young once listen hear me clearly almost 8 of 10 parents skips that especially teen parents.
God said when you cry unto me I will hear you but one thing I want you, to do is to THANK ME.
But now that is not happening unfortunately our current ruling government it does not have that, even poor of the poorest are not having that too.
What is in their thinking and heart Money to solve all the social problems? 17
MALIELE MICHAEL

Blindly people do not see how money transformed the world from their morals and ethics.
Now god he is a reserve for money rather than seeking and worship God.
It is a tragedy to see this question is what are the lessons being taught to upcoming generation? To tell the truth these words thank you are eroding from every language.
Even a small kind of help you offered not all will be thanking you.
Where is the world going? Somebody tell me where are we going.
Because of lack of thanks giving people they derived from the true moral ethics of Ubuntu.

BROKEN CHURCH Author and finisher of the faith and the head of the church is Jesus. Who are the author and finisher of faith? Money Who is the head now? Money From this rock I shall build my church. Church leaders are fighting to be in the head positions forgetting and ignoring who is the head by right, just because of money. Church has turned into fashion parade, pageants competitions and cars exhibitions. Church is now a business the word of god is being sold. Now it turned into devil’s play ground.
Women do not dress properly as the principles of the church say.
Poor people are being helped not because of generosity some they help from their heart, most it is just to get recognition only all in the name of money. Now we have too many churches which are opened like almost every day, but there are no transformations. 20

For solution to stop the pseudo prophets and pseudo pastors’ money is the solution like really? God already warned us this thing shall occur and he gave us the solutions oh come on people read because your life depends on reading. Go back were you have lost track and start to walk in the right track you were once in which was god’s way. Nation is perishing because they lack knowledge and understanding. How long will you go heading towards the ocean of furnace?
God loves you not to perish like this.
Jesus preached this all the time and he was hated by the high priests.
Jesus slashed out the money exchangers, pigeon’s sellers and all business men he found there in the temple. Jesus said to the high priests and the law givers ‘‘stop turning my father’s house a house of thief’s.’’ He was saying once money become an important variable in the church people will lose their focus from God, will begin to follow their desire for money. 21

The pharisees plotted against Jesus wanted to trap him in his own words, they said to him ‘‘Teacher we know that you are true and do not care about anyone‘s opinion. For you are not swayed by appearances, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not? But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, ‘‘why put me to the test? Bring me a denarius and let me look at it’’. And they brought one and he said to them. Whose likeness and inscription is this?’’ They said to him, ‘‘Caesar’s Jesus said to them, ‘‘render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and God the things that are Gods.’’ And they marveled at him.
As we read deeper into Jesus’ answer he says that Money should not be a wall between us and God but as people has a desire for money they sin, and the relationship of men and God is broken by money. In our present time now he says render to Mandela the things that are Mandela’s and God the things that are Gods.’’ As now we see how the church is braking day by day. Once you put money into your heart know this you are substituting God as your life giver by Money. What God tells you is this Money is not a sin but love for it, which is the sin in front of God’s eye. Read Hosea 3vs 2 you will understand God used Hosea to buy his wife from her prostitute job. 22

Money Lessons to Children Children are fragile beings they adapt quickly to anything they get introduced to. As we see mostly around the globe if your child knows that everything revolves around money, he/she will definitely follow your steps of solving all your problems by money. That is why we have this mentality of rich kids whereby they see themselves superior to other kids, because of the lessons they got from home. This is very bad thing all the time. Many people rich and poor in some cases they teach their children about the goodness of money, but they do not teach about the horror of money. Bank is not a producer of money but a thief of money. Parents stop lying to your children because you throw them into the devil’s den, tell them the truth. By saying ‘’There is no farm of money and money does not grow on tree.’’ The truth is where does paper come from? Trees Where money does comes from? Trees and is produced from a paper which came from the same tree. 24

Simple as ABC. Parents take your children to the old principles of work then you will be rewarded. The bible tells and teaches us this everyone shall be rewarded according to his deeds. Why you hide that teaching from your own children? But you were taught that from home and in school. Let children know that for you to get money you need to earn it also God before money. For the sweets or chips they want they must work first then rewarded when they done working give them do not lie. When you do that it validates your lessons to them. In the olden days we were told by our parents if you study hard and pass to the next grade we will buy you that toy/cell phone you always wanted. When you did excellently and passed to the next class then you will be asked the question. You want cash or the TOY? That question was teaching two important facts. The necessity between money and the toy, financial Management and Financial responsibility. 25

You could see how long the child he/she get deep in thinking before answering. If you could ask successful person did his/her parents used to do that? And what lesson did it taught them? They will honestly tell you that it taught them those two facts. Some they are still doing that even today and their kids are financially smart. But the problem is they were not taught God first principle but Money first principle. Jesus made a parable he said can a man give a snake when his son asks for bread? Can a man give scorpion when his son asks for a fish? Unfortunately this is what is happening from the past and the present. Children need to know the truth about God and Money. Also they need a clear answer to this question is it a sin to love money than God? Parents go back to 10 commandments to guide you in your parental skills. Emphasize this to your children not only to your kids but to yourselves YOU SHALL LOVE AND WORK FOR GOD 26

PLANT AND GROW MONEY When you plant a seed of any fruit or vegetable know this and once you know this wisdom, you already succeeded. That seed it is money even though it is not in a form of coins or banknotes. God said multiply the earth he did not say that for us to die poor no he did not. Why do I say that seed is money? In the past centuries wealth was not money. People were wealthy of food and animals those two where valuable than money. Agriculture is the essential aspect of economic development sectors from ages to ages. The world depended in the seed. That is why God chosen to accept Abel’s offering than Kane. Pharaoh was wealthy by his farms livestock &gold was additional wealth. God chose to give his beloved nation a wealthy land it was wealthy of seeds of any kind. 28

By the time he planted his seeds in the ground it grew in our present time, he was planting seeds worth of billions and grew billionaire to a multibillionaire. So as King Solomon planted a seed and grew it minerals were additional riches. Gideon one of the greatest leader of God was wealthy of the seeds god always blessed him with crops. Egypt’s economy melted when God sent locusts to eat pharaoh’s farms even though he still had gold. Why God did choose to destroy their farms? Have you ever thought or ask yourself that question? Let me give you the answer my people Because God knew very well seed is money so if money is destroyed poverty will take its cause.

God gave men the authority over everything on earth but he did not say to men turn away from me. Here I am trying to show you how money created problems from decades ago until now with the following information. Great Depression, name given to the profound global economic crisis that lasted from 1929 to 1939. At first each country coined its own title for the economic collapse, although every country in the world was affected by a crisis that also had serious consequences for social and political life. In Britain it was called “The Slump” and in Germany “Die Krise” (The Crisis). In time, however, the American term “The Great Depression”, which in Britain was reserved for the period 1873 to 1896, has come to dominate. The Great Depression Massive unemployment, factory and mill closings, and mortgage foreclosures characterized the Great Depression in the United States in the 1930s. Culver Pictures

When, following the Wall Street Crash in 1929, United States credit simply dried up, it pulled the rest of the world into depression behind it. © Microsoft Corporation. All Rights Reserved. During the course of World War I, the United States took over Britain’s role as the premier global economic power: the “world’s banker”. American financiers had become the world’s most powerful bankers thanks to the way that the Entente countries had come to depend on American loans to fund their war effort. As a result, the health and wealth of the world economy was now strongly intertwined with that of the United States. As the British economist John Maynard Keynes famously put it, when America sneezed, the rest of the world caught a cold.

American and, to a lesser extent, Japanese businessmen also had become wealthy thanks to increased demand around the world for their products while their British, German, and French competitors were preoccupied with producing goods for the war. In the 1920s American economic supremacy was further underlined by its enthusiasm for new technologies and methods of working, such as the first assembly lines, with the average worker in American factories producing twice as much per hour as his or her counterpart in Europe’s most industrialized countries. Not only were American manufactured goods cheaper than those made in Europe, so, too, were many American agricultural and primary products. Only the large, intensively farmed lands of the Commonwealth—in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand—were able to compete successfully. America’s new-found financial power and enthusiasm for selling its products overseas was to give it a special role in the way Europe, in particular, recovered from the effects of waging World War I. Between 1918 and 1924 countries who were on the losing side, like Germany, Austria, and Hungary, or those whose lands had witnessed the most intensive military campaigns, notably Belgium and France, were overwhelmed by the scale of their problems. For most countries, it did not prove as difficult to rebuild factories and homes, and restore farmland that had been destroyed in the bloody slaughter, as to return the economy and society to a peacetime setting. The peace treaties negotiated between 1919 and 1923, like the Treaty of Versailles, added to the woes of those who had lost the war. Not only did the defeated Central Powers have to pay heavy reparations to the Allies 36

(although not the United States), they were also banned from working together to overcome their economic problems. World War I also helped to generate political change that affected how economic policy was made and what it was expected to achieve. Politicians were now expected to deliver improved social provision and work opportunities, and when governments failed to manage the national economy to the benefit of the majority of voters, they were increasingly likely to be booted out of office. The fact that many countries were much more democratic after the war than before it only made it easier to be rid of governments who did not deliver on electoral promises when it came to economic policy. In the longer term, the need to manage the home economy to the satisfaction of the electorate complicated relations between nation states. With governments increasingly responsive to the demands of farmers or industrialists to protect the home market from cheaper foreign imports, the 1920s witnessed a growing number of “tit-for-tat� trade wars that damaged both diplomatic relations and the international economy. The first big test for governments had come in the early 1920s when, thanks to the impact of the war, levels of inflation began to rise dramatically. The problem was especially acute in Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Austria where inflation reached the giddy rates of 2000 per cent a year. In Britain inflation ran at about 25 per cent, shockingly high by today’s standards, but at the time it was the lowest in Europe. The experience of inflation had a profound impact around the world. Governments now made currency stability the 37

primary goal and their efforts centered on resurrecting the international gold standard (a fixed exchange rate mechanism) because it was widely believed the gold standard had generated the tremendous expansion of the international economy in the 19th century. Forty-five countries joined the gold standard between 1924 and 1929 (most of the British Empire and Commonwealth joined in 1926). The gold standard bound the fate of national economies more closely together. So, too, did the increase in international lending after 1924, which was essential to its reconstruction. Without international organizations rich enough to help out countries that faced serious financial difficulties, private banks in the world’s wealthiest nations stepped in to help. Britain continued to be a significant source of overseas investment, but the United States was now the most important. Between 1924 and 1929 private American investors lent some US$7.8 billion, with US$4 billion alone invested in Germany. III

Unemployment Lines, 1930s The Wall Street stock market crash of 1929 precipitated the Great Depression, the worst economic downturn in world history. The depression lasted over a decade, with millions of Americans losing their jobs, businesses failing, and financial institutions collapsing. Of the 6,000 people hoping to get jobs on this day in New York, 135 were hired. UPI/THE BETTMANN ARCHIVE The collapse of the American stock market on Wall Street in October 1929 is usually taken to mark the onset of the economic collapse. The world economy had already begun to turn downward in 1928, with demand for both agricultural and industrial goods, as well as for construction work, beginning to decline. Indeed, these trends were evident in the United States and helped to trigger the wave of selling 39

on the American stock market. But it was not the Wall Street Crash itself, but the policy response to it, which tipped the world economy into the greatest depression ever known. Sidebar SIDEBAR The Times Report of the Wall Street Crash This report on the developing Wall Street stock market crash appeared in The Times on October 25, 1929. In the months leading up to the crash, investors, fearing that the years of booming stock market prices had left securities severely overpriced, began selling shares. The selling gathered momentum and on October 24, “Black Thursday”, more than 12 million shares were traded at ever decreasing prices. In less than a week US$14 billion was wiped off share values. On October 29, “Black Tuesday”, share prices collapsed, and in that one day more than 16 million shares were traded and another US$10 billion was wiped off share values. The crash heralded the Great Depression that affected the entire world. open sidebar American bankers believed that speculation in the stock market had been encouraged by easy access to cheap credit, so their response in 1929 and 1930 was to increase interest rates. This had a dramatic effect on countries around the world. The flow of American loans that had smoothed over some of the cracks in the world economy of the 1920s dried up completely, and, thanks to the “rules” governing 40

the operation of the gold standard, other countries had to copy the American move and raise interest rates too. The consequences were dramatic: it became increasingly difficult for farms and businesses to pay off loans and to borrow the money needed to combat the onset of depression. Governments, too, began to feel the squeeze as their levels of revenue from taxes fell dramatically just when they needed to spend money on social assistance and public work schemes to mop up unemployment, and to kick-start recovery. Members of the gold standard were also less able to combat the depression because the “rules” of the system helped to determine how countries should make economic policy. In particular, the “rules” called for governments to maintain a balanced domestic budget (governments could only spend as much as they made in revenue) and a positive balance of trade (member countries should export more than they imported). This was a demanding and inflexible policy regime when the world economy turned downward, and it acted as a straight-jacket on government economic policy. Around the world, governments were soon in bitter dispute over whether to slash government spending to meet the “rules” of the gold standard. Thanks to their painful memories of the chaos caused by the post-war inflation, they found it very difficult to forsake the gold standard.

Vicious Circle of the 1931 Financial Crisis By adhering to the rules of the gold standard, widely regarded as the final defense against rampant inflation, economies throughout the world became locked into a vicious circle of collapsing confidence, low demand, and high interest rates that deepened the impact of the depression. This became self-perpetuating until governments finally took the decision to leave the gold standard. Š Microsoft Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
In 1930 many economic forecasters believed the crisis would be short-lived but by the following year confidence in the future had evaporated. Not only were governments cutting back on spending, so, too, were companies, farms, and households. Demand for industrial and agricultural products now dried up and this caused prices to fall yet further. By the summer of 1931, many economies began to crack under the strain of falling prices, a lack of demand, and spiraling levels of unemployment. Across much of the world, economic, political, and financial pressures combined to produce a financial crisis that swept the world like a flash flood. Events in Austria and Germany were among the most dramatic. With some of their most prestigious banking houses facing ruin, the German and Austrian 42

governments were forced to become directly involved in managing the financial system. In Britain it was not commercial banks that came under pressure in 1931, but the central bank, the Bank of England. Britain’s financial crisis culminated in the British Empire and Commonwealth countries leaving the gold standard (Australia left in 1929 and South Africa in 1932). This was a key-turning point in the Great Depression. These countries took the first tentative steps on the road to recovery.

EDUCATION CULTURE ‘‘Ignorance is always a misfortune’’ Dr Pheko Many young people die because of ignorance. Let us check whose idea of education comes from Education Act 1944, legislation that radically changed the structure of education in England and Wales. Rab Butler, as Minister of Education, championed the progression of the Act, and it is after him that the Act is commonly known: “The Butler Act”. The Act affected education in four main ways.
Keystone Pressedienst GmbH Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi The ideas of the Swiss educationalist and reformer Johann Pestalozzi have influenced educational ideals and teacher-training around the world since the 19th century. Pestalozzi believed that methods of teaching should recognize the individuality of the child and that education is not merely an accumulation of knowledge but the promotion of skills through demonstration and practice. .

John Comenius The great educational reformer John Comenius (1592-1670) had ideas that were revolutionary in his time. He believed that educational methods should be based on how a child's mind works and develops. He also proposed that all young people in Europe should be taught about the culture in which they lived (which included every child learning Latin). Many of his ideas (including his method of teaching Latin, which could be applied to any language) were successful, but his dream of reforming human society through education was ultimately too ambitious and was never fulfilled. .
Now you know where it comes from whom as I showed, if you did not know. All knowledge I know came after reading deeper the scripture of creation Genesis, I understood what was god saying to me all the time. Then problem occurred when comes to education culture, which was depriving me from the wisdom that GOD planted in me.

What do I mean by that? I mean teachers did not understand actually they did not want to know and understand me. Because education culture taught them that the qualifications meant that they are superior to others. Even though they make mistakes learners should not question and show where they made mistake, so I always find mistakes and refused to be oppressed more, worse thing to proceed with the mistakes they taught. There is a huge problem I saw in our black communities which is the education culture which taught them the following,
