RE: When Nets Replace Fishing

Great parable.

Thinking about it leads me to ask, "What will the economy of the New Heavens and the New Earth be like?"

Thanks for a great conversation today.

😄😇😄

    I often wonder that myself. Excited to participate in it.

    Always enjoy a conversation with you, my friend. Have some tax thoughts on my mind for next time. Thought that might be an area of interest for you. ;)

    Why, whatever would give you that idea? ;)

    P.S.

    My best guess at the moment is something along the lines of a "gift economy."

      Hmm, that would make sense in light of holding all things in common portrayed in the early church.

      I'll bolster my presumption now:

      "...and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him."- Romans 8:17

      and

      "He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?"- Romans 8:32

      and

      "Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."- 2 Corinthians 9:7
