Cashless society

I was thinking that it may not be such a hardship to be living outside of the world's monetary system when we refuse to take the mark of the beast. I used to think it would be a really challenging time for the Saints, but now I feel that perhaps it will be easier than having to comply with regulations and have our purchases monitored etc.

If we can't buy or sell in mainstream society, then that needn't be such as bad thing. We can still barter among one another and have far more liberty than the enslaved people who accept the cashless society out of laziness or fear of man. Who wants a mortgage and endless taxes anyway?

Perhaps the biggest challenge will be to make the decision to leave the world (our electronic gadgets and home comforts) behind.

I'd rather have real liberty than a guaranteed job and home, both provided by the State.

I look forward to it. I just hope I will have the opportunity to make preperations before then.

My question is where do we go to live if we can't pay for our houses in the new cashless society? I don't know how it is in England, but here in the states all the land is owned by somebody. Do I set up a tent on church property?

In order to get out of it (cashless society) you have to sometimes do the hard thing of selling your home and find a place where you can take care of yourself and your loved ones - buying the place with cash. Maintain 6-10 years worth of taxes in the bank or in hard currency so you do not lose it to the tax man.

Follow the Spirit and pray for direction and guidance as to where/what/how and you will do alright. Surround yourself with the truly righteous that have followed the directions of the Lord - as they have been given already. Not the fairweather followers.
