The Eighth Commandment
certain “pill,” for instance, will cause him to lose weight, gain
weight, increase his potency, restore his thinning hair, or whatever
the case may be. And, in most cases, this statement is a direct,
willful lie without any doubt. Such a practice is, in effect, stealing
from the people who pay money to achieve the promised result. In
many cases, the victims of these gigantic frauds are not only
robbed of money, they are robbed of health, happiness and peace
of mind. Many a “respectable” businessman and community
leader has attained his position largely through this type of mass
deception and theft!
Our nations and peoples need to wake up! Just because a sin
can be made outwardly to appear “respectable,” remember that
God is the real Judge. The Almighty has this to say: “Know ye not
that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not
deceived: neither fornicators… nor thieves… will inherit the kingdom
of God” (1 Corinthians 6:9–10, KJV). Lest any misunderstand,
remember that it is God’s will that His servants prosper in
material wealth—as long as they gain it honestly, and do not set
their hearts upon it. The Apostle John wrote: “Beloved, I pray that
you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul
prospers” (3 John v. 2).

Moreover, we must realize that an industrialist’s wealth that is
tarnished by an unnecessarily high death rate in his plants or factories
is ill-gotten gain—and he is branded in the light of God’s
law as a thief, if not a murderer! The principle behind the eighth
commandment is broken again and again in the relations of capital
and labor. James was inspired to warn the dishonest employer:
“Indeed the wages of the laborers… which you kept back by
fraud, cry out; and the cries… have reached the ears of the
Lord…” (James 5:4). It is also equally true—and especially so in
this era of corrupt unionism—that many an employee robs his
employer! He does this by taking his wage and yet withholding
his full share of honest labor. And that is stealing! All too often
one laborer tells his coworker: “Slow down, buddy, you’re working
