Sermon 9: Usury

By Rev. William H. Grimes

Let's start in Exodus 22:25. "If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury." So, what is this saying? It's saying that lending money to other people and expecting interest on the principal is wicked! So, who does this make sinners of? There are all of these banks and other financial institutions RIPPING OFF THE POOR IN THIS COUNTRY BECAUSE THEY ARE POSSESSED OF THE DEVIL! WICKED BANKERS WHO ARE OF THE WICKED CLASS! WICKED FRAUDULENT CROOKS WHO THINK THAT THEY ARE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD WHENEVER THEY ARE NOT! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Deuteronomy 23:19-20 says "Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury: Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it." Luke 19:23 says "Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?"

So, what is the Bible saying in both the Old and New Testaments? DO NOT LEND MONEY TO THE POOR AND EXPECT COMPENSATION IN THE FORM OF INTEREST! NO INTEREST, NO LATE FEES, NO OVER THE LIMIT FEES, OR ANY OF THIS OTHER GARBAGE! CREDIT CARDS ARE A TOTAL ABOMINATION UNTO THE LORD! WHO CONTROLS THE BANKS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS? THOSE WICKED FRAUDSTERS WHO ALSO CLAIMED TO BE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD AND THE FOOLISH REPUBLICANS WORSHIP AT THE ALTAR OF BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO, THIS MEANS NO MORE LENDING MONEY AND CALCULATING INTEREST! NO PERSONAL LOANS, NO AUTO LOANS, NO STUDENT LOANS, NO MORTGAGES, NO CREDIT CARDS, FOR IT IS ALL OF SATAN! God's people said AMEN!
