Look Like Jesus-Can our vices become virtuous?
Today’s Question: Can our Vices become virtuous?
For some reason, I like using the bible to justify how heroes in comic books work. There has been a hero gaining popularity, and one uses greed, of all things, as a power source. I got to thinking about it, and said “How in the world do you justify using greed for good at all? Is it even possible?” I get steal from the rich and give to those in need and to the oppressed, but it’s still wrong to steal. So I looked at the Bible and somehow came to the first Commandment, where God says to Moses "Thou shalt not worship any god before me for I am a jealous God." I think that’s the whole verse I’ll have to double check, I hate leaving out key details. Anyway, I saw it, or understood it as when it comes to our love God shares with no one, and nothing. Which translates to greed. then I looked at it closer and thought no that is wrong, God says He is a "Jealous God" not a selfish God. He chooses His words carefully and wisely. You can seem to make a case for any hero using a vice but greed seems to be the one that no one can use for good. What does everyone else think? Personally I think the words Greedy Hero is the perfect example of an oxymoron. I know the bible says through God all things are possible but proving a "Greedy Hero" is just or even a good idea is probably pushing it a bit. I think I know the answer but still I’d like to know what everyone else thinks. So what does the bible say, and what does everyone else think?
