George Bush Timex

George Bush Timex

When he was the 43st president of the United States, George W. Bush wore a $50 Timex watch (right).

And George Bush had company. The 42nd president of the United States Bill Clinton's watch was also a $50 Timex. And both former presidents Bill Clinton and George Bush still wear Timex watches.

Why do presidents of the world's most powerful country wear a cheap watch?

It's because when it comes to wrist watches, the ultimate statement of power is an understatement. So don't imitate the also-rans like Putin and Berlusconi, and go even beyond the likes of George Bush.

Consider this: for $2, frontline Bible organizations can print and smuggle a Bible into a country where they are banned, and for every Bible that reaches such a country, two new people on average come to believe in Jesus.

Instead of spending $10,000 or $60,000, let alone $540,000 to imitate corrupt oligarchs, why not wear a $50 Timex like George Bush, or Swatch, Casio or Citizen, and donate the rest to serving the Salvator Mundi?

For $9,950 ($10,000-$50 Timex), over 4,400 Bibles can reach the lost and over 13,200 people saved. For $59,950, over 26,000 Bibles can reach the lost and over 78,000 souls won. For $539,950, those numbers rise to almost 270,000 Bibles delivered and 810,000 people saved.
Think about this. Luxury watches are by definition watches that cost more than their utility. Thousands of people can be saved just by you wearing a less shiny watch. You can use God-entrusted money to please yourself or to serve God. The consequences, according to Jesus, are serious:

"And the Lord said, “Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes. Truly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all that he has. But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’ and begins to beat the male and female servants, and to eat and drink and be drunk, the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. And that servant who knew his master’s will, and did not prepare himself or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more.” (Luke 12:42-48)
