I am going to focus on the Oikonomous (or the House hold rules) Oikonomous: official in charge of managing the estates and finances of an ecclesiastical foundation; steward of a monastery…And how they determine Christian Ecomonic decisions.

Abstract Proposal
Christian Ethic Final Paper
A.Van Wyk
I would like to propose my studying how worth is given to how people work in America in accordance to how much they are paid. How is one mans position in the economy is different from any others mans when they both work the same hours. I would like to answer how people place value in what issues they support with their money base off their Christian ethical beliefs. What are some Economic situations that people find themselves getting into on an average day? And why Christians are seen as less materialistic because of what the Bible says about being materialistic. I want to show how the United States economy though it is a predominantly Christian society isn’t following the Bibles beliefs in materialism. I will be studying the reading of Matthew, Isaiah and John and looking at the stories of Jesus and what he said to Zacheus. And others about stopping their materialism and following his teachings. I plan on looking at Ephesians 1:3-10; 3:8-10. In l: l0 and 3:9 into order to translate them using various words to see what is suggested as what is God’s plan/economy really is. I also would like to read Colossians 1:24-26; I Peter 4:7-11. To determine whether Paul was a steward, a minister or an economist? Are you an economist? A steward? A minister? Are they different? I would Like to look into the and study the oikonomos (household rules) to see how they affect Christian’s ideas on how they should be spending their money now. In order to determine Why Christians focus on certain decisions and not others. Why the church sides to buy and support some causes and not others.
