Where is the middle ground, that perfect earth’s equilibrium: not too cold and not too hot, livable condition between unrighteous poverty and unrighteous wealth. What is it? What is poverty and wealth, as the Bible was speaking? Was Jesus ever literal?
Here’s the middle ground:
1 Corinthians 7:30
Let those who weep live as though they did not weep, let those who rejoice live as though they did not, let those who make a purchase live as though they had nothing… I do not want you to be concerned.
What is this idea? Is it a call to have no possessions? Is it a call to empty ourselves of emotions? Is it a call to deceive the mind and lie, daily regarding our circumstances? No. It is simply a very extreme form of living in two places at once, the current condition and the future.
I would rephrase, this way: Although you weep, don’t carry it long, and when you rejoice, don’t proclaim or let your heart think it’s gained, and when you increase in worldly possessions, don’t let your mind wonder in awe of a things or rejoice as though the new item had helped you, but instead let the fact of this system of nature, with it’s evil ways and struggles and death and money as a concept, are dying away so let heaven invade your heart and thing of the things that do not end because you will be there soon enough.
This is a broad reaching concept not to be taken lightly or ignored and will need revelation for understanding, and the more into the new creation you are willing to become the hard edged this command becomes, also. It will not go away until the end the age is fully transitioned in to glory.
