I think the holy spirit needs to be passed on from the time of Jesus and his disciples until this present age. I think we need to go to a place where it is being passed on. However, be aware that there are many wolves in sheep clothing that use the gospel to deceive others for the sake of getting rich or other deviant reason. The prophets tell us, so are the priest, so are the people.
The church and priest may or will push the 10% giving rule called a tithe. I believe in the tithe, but to my own saving account for my family. To me it has the same philosophical meaning. "Gather your tithe into the storage house, and I will multiply them says the Lord of Host."
Jesus said, " First seek the Kingdom of Heaven and all that you ask for shall be given to you and neither shall they say behold here or there, for the Kingdom of heaven is with in you."
For some reason government bonds sell off when the Feds start to increase interest rates and banks benefit from higher interest rates. Like wise as soon as the Feds hint at or start lowering interest rates money flows back into government bonds. Right now Pimco Strategic Income Fund (Government Bonds) is paying a monthly dividend of .051 cents which equates to .61 cents yearly which is a 11.40% dividend yield.
Although banks benefit from higher interest rates everything sells off in a bear market. Right now the Feds are increasing interest rates to curb inflation and they said it will be painful to fix the higher prices.
Experts say, government spending has caused inflation, but our current administration blames it on Russia. They also know that their energy policies caused the high prices of gas, but refuse to acknowledge it, so gas prices will remain high until they change their stance on their energy policies.
