Righteousness is defined in the Bible as obedience to the Law of God (Ps. 119:172). The eighth commandment deals with theft. The increase of property, goods, and wealth by illegal means is outside the boundaries of God’s Law. This kind of activity constitutes theft and is a sin. Politically speaking, the most widespread form of [...]
