Jesus Economics | Eye See You

Published: July 7, 2019, 7 a.m.

Jesus uses a metaphor in Matthew 6 that may be foreign to many of us. Having a "good" or "healthy" eye represents an underlying ethic of seeing one another, so that we can be generous and lavish in our economic behavior. Different from the commonly known Matthew Effect, that the more someone has the greater their advantage, this principle proposes a way of governing our economic selves by restoring our proper relationship with each other.
