There is an old say that history is written by the victors. History will be written and rewritten. Its not like the Bible which has survived intact bc its the Word of God. Its just another way they claim to have the moral high ground.
Let a man regard us in this manner, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
In this case, moreover, it is required of stewards that one be found trustworthy.
But to me it is a very small thing that I may be examined by you, or by any human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself.
For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord.
Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men’s hearts; and then each man’s praise will come to him from God.

The only way to be on the right side of history is to be on the right side of God! By the way your example of the "property management" concept as it pertains to stewardship was excellent!

Amen! Thanks for reminding us again of the absolutes of God’s Word and being on His side.
