About this title

Synopsis

Rethinking wealth through the Bible's lens.

A thoughtful collection of lectures that apply the Word of God to the traffic of men, urging readers to consider how money, work, and charity shape character, society, and faith.

In these pages, William Arnot examines the responsibilities of the rich, the duties of capital, and the impact of wealth on labor, wages, and moral choices. The book argues that genuine Christian living requires more than generosity; it calls for honest dealing, prudent stewardship, and a broader concern for the common good in a marketplace that touches every life. It blends scriptural reflection with practical guidance for personal conduct and public action, urging readers to keep faith central in business and policy.

• Understand the risks of covetousness and its temptations in daily commerce
• Explore how wealth can serve people and God, rather than become a master
• Learn how to pursue honest, fair dealing in all transactions
• Consider the broader call to charity, labor, and social responsibility

Ideal for readers of religious ethics, historical sermons, and anyone seeking a biblically grounded view of money, work, and charitable action in society.
