Abstract
The purpose of this project is investigating the biblical view of the principle of economics and also study of the South Korean pastors' role concerning the poverty and the wealthy. This project utilizes the New Testament first and foremost, and I will read avidly John Chrysostom's sermons on the indigent and the wealthy, as well as many books about clergy ethics and statistical information from the church ministry in Korea. The author writer hopes that through this dissertation a pastor who is longing for a frugal life will gain new insight about biblical economic perspectives and desire to constantly transmit to other believer's truth on poverty, reaffirming the role of the wealthy, the almsgiving, and the poor within his Christian community.
