Church Bucks – Wingham Based Voluntary Parallel Currency for a Wealthier, Healthier, Holier Community #MoralMoney

✝️ WHAT ARE CHURCH BUCKS?

Church Bucks are a community-based, voluntary currency—similar to the Chamber of Commerce dollars of the past, or GoldBacks/GoldFoils of today. They’re not backed by royalty or risky bullion—they’re backed by something far more powerful: FAITH in your community.

Church Bucks are redeemable 1:1 with Canadian dollars, but when you use Church Bucks instead of cash, something incredible happens: the value STAYS local.


💰 WHY CHURCH BUCKS?

  • Build Local Wealth
    With Church Bucks, your money never leaves the community. It supports the people who support you—your family, friends, neighbors, and church.
  • Banks Don’t Get a Cut
    No transaction fees. No percentage skimmed by giant financial institutions.
  • Government Doesn’t Get a Cut
    With a 13% tax rate, money only needs to circulate five times before half is gone to the state. With Church Bucks, it can circulate a hundred times and still belong to the people who earned it.
  • No Forced Sharing with Bureaucrats
    If someone didn’t work for it, they don’t get a share of it. Period.

💡 CHURCH BUCKS VS. BULLION

Let’s get real for a minute…

  • Fake gold is now passing industry-standard testers. Trust in bullion? Risky.
  • Fractional gold products are based on faith in a salesperson, not in anything tangible. If they won’t buy it back when gold is high, ask yourself why.
  • Canadian currency? Backed by King Charles and Crown corporations. Need we say more?

Church Bucks are backed by you. The hard-working, value-creating people who make your community thrive.


🐄 DON’T WORSHIP THE GOLDEN CALF

When you stockpile gold and ignore your neighbors, your community, and your church, you’re investing in fear, not faith.
You’re worshipping the golden cow, not the living God.

Church Bucks are a return to real wealth—which is trust, trade, faith, and relationships.
Mental health improves when people feel connected. Financial health follows.


⚔️ A PEACEFUL PROTEST WITH EVERY PURCHASE

Every time you use Church Bucks instead of cash:

  • You opt out of a corrupt system.
  • You keep wealth circulating locally.
  • You say NO to government overreach and corporate exploitation.

It’s a peaceful but powerful “FU” to the idea that others deserve a cut of your labor when they did nothing to earn it.


🌾 FAITH IN ACTION

Church Bucks represent faith in something real:

  • Your community.
  • Your church.
  • Your shared future.

Every dollar spent in Church Bucks is a vote for sovereignty—personal, financial, and spiritual.


🙏 WHO CAN USE THEM?

Everyone.
Businesses, churches, farmers, builders, artists, and neighbors. Anyone who believes in honest trade, local value, and real relationships.

As long as we agree to:

  • Not charge or collect tax,
  • Not give a cut to anyone who didn’t earn it,
  • And to honor value with value…

We are free to rebuild a real economy, from the ground up.


🔁 THE FINAL WORD

“Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s…”
But Church Bucks? They don’t belong to Caesar.
They belong to you, your family, your church, and your Creator.


💥 CHOOSE CHURCH BUCKS.

**Stop giving away what others didn’t earn.
Start keeping value where it belongs—**in your hands, your church, and your community.

Let’s make faith-backed finance the foundation of a new local economy.
Are you in?

When Taxes Become Theft: A Call for Righteous Stewardship

(TheChurchOfCannada.com) Brothers and sisters, today we gather to reflect on the balance between our obligations to our community and the righteous stewardship of our personal and family needs. Our Lord calls us to live justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God. Yet, there arises a point when the demands placed upon us by those in authority can lead us away from the path of justice. When the King’s men, our government, impose taxes that exceed what is just and reasonable, they tread dangerously close to theft and oppression. 

Scriptural Foundation:

The Bible provides us with clear guidance on the matter of stewardship and justice. In Proverbs 22:7, it says, “The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.” This scripture highlights the inherent danger in allowing one entity too much control over another’s resources. When the government demands more than its fair share, it places a burden too heavy for the people to bear.

The Role of Government:

The role of the government, or the King’s men, is to protect and serve the people, ensuring justice and the common good. Romans 13:1-7 speaks to the necessity of government and our duty to submit to it. However, this submission is not without its limits. The government’s role is not to enslave but to enable. It is to provide a structure where its citizens can flourish, not to strip them of their means to live.

The Evil of Excessive Taxation:

When taxes exceed 50% of an individual’s earnings, it is not merely a financial burden; it is a moral one. It is an act of taking more than what is justly due, infringing upon the individual’s ability to provide for themselves and their family. This is not just an economic issue but a profound ethical one. When the government takes more than half of what we earn, expecting us to survive on less than what they claim, they are effectively making us their servants. This level of taxation is a form of economic slavery.

Meeting Personal and Family Needs First:

1 Timothy 5:8 tells us, “But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.” We have a divine mandate to ensure the well-being of our families. It is wrong for the King’s men to demand taxes before we have met the essential needs of those entrusted to our care. Our first responsibility is to our families, to ensure they have food, shelter, and the means to live a dignified life.

Hypocrisy of Excessive Taxation:

It is hypocritical for the government to demand more than 50% of our earnings, claiming it is insufficient for their needs, yet expecting us to live on the lesser portion. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for their hypocrisy, saying in Matthew 23:4, “They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.” This is a vivid picture of what happens when governments overreach.

When Taxes Become Theft:

Taxes become theft when they exceed what is necessary to fulfill the government’s legitimate role of ensuring justice and providing for the common good. When the government’s demands prevent individuals from meeting their primary obligations to their families and from stewarding their resources effectively, it has crossed a line. The prophet Micah warns us in Micah 6:8 that the Lord requires us “to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” There is no justice in a system that demands more than half of what a person earns, leaving them with less than what is required to sustain their family and themselves.

Conclusion:

As followers of Christ, we are called to seek justice and to stand against oppression. When the King’s men demand more than what is just, it is our duty to speak out. We must advocate for a system where taxes are fair and just, where the government does not take more than it gives, and where every individual can meet their personal and family needs first.

Let us pray for wisdom, courage, and discernment as we navigate these challenging issues. May we strive for a society where righteousness prevails and where each person can live in dignity and freedom, under the just stewardship of their resources. Amen.
