Gold in the Bible | The Gold Standard #2126

In this special episode honoring Christmas, we talk about gold in the Bible and its use during biblical times. First, Ken comments on the two trillion dollars the Biden administration is adding to the national debt.

The Government’s $2 trillion added to the national debt

The fundamental problems that led to the financial meltdown of 2008 have never gone away. Actions continue only to magnify the issues. The bailouts, currency creation, market manipulations, derivative expansions, and growth of the “too big to fail” banks have continued to build pressure to bubbles that could burst any time. Kicking the can further down the street of accountability ensures that the next crisis will be much bigger and more impactful than anything we’ve seen before. The stored energy of multiple bubbles will explode one day, and it’s going to be a challenging time for many people, especially those who aren’t prepared for it.

Remember, gold is physical. Gold provides insurance against the risks to which all digital currencies, including the US dollar, are exposed.

Gold and Bible

Gold and silver have been used as money since around the 7th Century BC. Gold is the eternal store of value throughout the ages. The Bible is rich with the use of Gold as a symbol for both physical wealth and spiritual well-being. The King James Version (KJV) mentions gold 417 times. From the first mention of gold in Genesis (2:12 KJV) to the tabernacle in Exodus 25:8.11, gold represents wealth, power, and prestige; but, far more valuable than that, gold becomes a metaphor for many things: abundance, the acquisition of knowledge, wisdom, and faith.

Gold and its association with God

Gold has been associated with divinity, even before the written word. Gold’s shimmery brilliance, indestructible yet malleable quality, has always inspired humanity to see it as something heaven-sent. Even before the birth of Christianity, gold has been seen as the ideal material to bridge earthly presence with the spiritual connection.

The Bible offers us guidance on how we can live our lives in the way God would want us to. The Bible does this by providing examples of actions and consequences. It’s up to readers to take what they will and apply the lessons learned to different areas of life. The Bile also tells us about ancient history and gives us the perspective to see how behavior patterns repeat again and again as if asking the question, “When will the lessons be learned?”

History repeats itself. Long before the US existed, many empires had risen and fallen. Governments have participated in the wholesale restrictions of freedoms.

When we consider the lessons from the Bible, we see that there is no difference between the United States and ancient Greece, Rome, or any other country that relied on currency creation to expand its power and influence. Humankind’s greed remains unchanged. The practice of creating currency has always brought the demise of empires. And just like those empires, the ability of the US to dictate world economic policy will come to an end. The possibilities of that happening within our life seem to increase with each passing year. Now is the time to take steps to protect your financial legacy.

The Istanbul Gold Refinery (IGR) one-ounce gold bar

The featured bullion product for this special Christmas episode comes from Turkey. Although there is a wide variety of gold bar sizes available, Ken spotlights the most popular choice, the one-ounce gold bar. As the official gold refinery of Turkey, IGR is one of the world’s best sources for gold ingots and cast bars.

The origins go as far back as 1995 when Halac Jewelry started a gold refinery in Istanbul near the Grand Bazaar. It was a relatively small operation until 2004 when the Istanbul Gold Refinery opened its large refinery in the goldsmiths’ city, including over 2,000 workshops, factories, wholesalers, and retail shops. IGR became famous for being the first refinery in Turkey to produce gold products with a high purity of .9999, 24-karat gold.
