Gold Built The West | Leviticus 19:35-36

About this episode

The episode discusses the biblical principles of justice in economic life, focusing on gold as sound money and the implications of currency debasement.

This episode opens with Leviticus 19:35 –36 on honest weights and measures and applies the biblical idea of justice to money, commerce, and economic life. The hosts connect classical Christian thought (including Thomas Aquinas) to the moral question of debased currency, arguing that fiat money’s ongoing devaluation creates unequal exchange over time. Guest Bill Armor discusses why gold has historically functioned as “sound money,” pointing to its scarcity, density, durability, and biblical significance, and contrasts gold’s finiteness with governments’ ability to expand money supply and debt. The conversation traces how stable high-purity gold coinage supported trade and trust across Christendom, notes historical cycles of currency debasement (including Rome), and discusses declining global confidence in the U.S. dollar alongside increased national gold buying. The episode closes by encouraging listeners to gain knowledge and consider portfolio diversification and qualified retirement rollovers into physical precious metals. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals…
