Barry’s Personal Statement
I had the great good fortune of being raised in a Christian household, and I gave my heart to Christ at an early age. His gospel is the greatest message in the history of the world. The gospel message in its simplest form is that:
1. We are separated from God due to our disobedience of Him, which is also called “sin”;
2. Jesus is God’s son who came and died to pay the price for our sins,
3. And, if we accept the free gift of Jesus’ sacrifice, we can be reunited with God our Father. Once we accept this gift, we can be assured that life can have purpose and we can be assured of going to heaven to live with God. We enter into the relationship for which we were created.
I am now a Colorado Christian bankruptcy lawyer / attorney in Centennial, Littleton and Aurora, seeking excellence in all I do. To some, being a Christian might seem like having a divided mind, being passive or lacking focus. To me, it means having insight into how people think and behave, and having a standard of integrity far beyond what the world requires. While serving my clients, I am also serving God as a Christian lawyer / attorney.
Being a Christian gives me a standard of integrity far beyond what the world requires.
Christian Perspective on Bankruptcy in Centennial, Littleton and Aurora
My Christian perspective has particular relevance for my bankruptcy practice. Some of my Christian clients feel like they are doing something wrong by taking advantage of the protections of the Bankruptcy Code. But they needn’t feel that way, because our bankruptcy laws are based firmly on Biblical principles.
The Bible and the Forgiveness of Debt
Did you know that the Bible has a lot to say about the forgiveness of debt? Yes it does. For example, until recently under U.S. law a debtor could receive a discharge of debts in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy once every seven years (it is now eight years). That original seven year period is based on – you guessed it – the Bible: “At the end of every seven years you shall grant a release of debts. And this is the form of the release: Every creditor who has lent anything to his neighbor shall release it; he shall not require it of his neighbor or his brother, because it is called the LORD’s release” (Deuteronomy 15:1-2).
Debt is Bondage
The Bible also refers to debt as a type of bondage: “. . .the borrower is a slave to the lender” (Proverbs 22:7). Interestingly, the Bible declares: “. . . in the seventh year you shall let [your Hebrew slave] go free from you. And when you send him away free from you, you shall not let him go away empty-handed; but you shall supply him liberally from your flock…” (Deuteronomy 15:12-14).
Bankruptcy in Centennial, Littleton and Aurora Gives You a Fresh Start
Modern bankruptcy laws, like the Biblical provision above, allow debtors to keep certain property when they file bankruptcy. This gives debtors a fresh start and discourages debtors from going into debt-bondage again after the bankruptcy is over, in order to survive.
As a Christian bankruptcy lawyer in Centennial, Littleton and Aurora, Colorado, I have affiliated myself with a network of other believers through the Alliance Defending Freedom, where I have donated over 1,100 hours of my time primarily in the defense of religious liberty. I consider my Christian faith to be an asset in all I do as a Christian lawyer. Please feel free to call me if you would like to work with a Christian bankruptcy lawyer or feel like your values can best be protected by a Centennial, Littleton and Aurora Christian lawyer.
