Biblical Counsel on Acquiring Real Estate. Part [2] 02/16/2026(Evening thought)

Exodus 20: 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and He rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

That being said, it seems as if all the evils committed in ages past would be coming to a head in these last days of earth’s history, for sin is scheduled to reach its zenith on all fronts as the sinful nature of persons becomes more and more depraved. The root of all evil is covetousness, and because it has become endemic in societies, the Bible predicts that it would be manifested in different ways which will culminate in the mark of the beast.

Man, driven by satan would covet the worship, the praise, the time, and the real estate which belongs to God alone. But covetousness, as it relates to acquiring of real estate has existed from time immemorial, for after sin entered our world, peoples and nations in many instances have sought to obtain real estate by fraud, by dissembling or by the use of brute force, and if in our day you see the same tendency occurring again, it is because there is nothing new under the sun.

Let no one be fooled concerning this fact, that most of the wars that are fought, and those which have been fought in times past, have mostly been about real estate. The war between Russia, and Ukraine is about real estate, the tensions and many squabbles between China and Taiwan are about real estate. The wars in Somalia and Rwanda are also about real estate, the wars between the Palestinians and Jews are all about real estate.

Leviticus 25:23 The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine, for you are strangers and sojourners with me. 24 And in all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
