Blessed Brothers (and lesser Sisters) in the Lord,
Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
1 Cor 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Hebrews 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus
We were brought from enmity with God and redeemed by the blood of our precious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He has paid the price for our sins. Seeing as we can tally up the price of sin which equals death (and death is certainly costly) and Christ died for the whole world we can and *must* work out a value and hence exchange rate between Christ Blood (CB ) and USD.
I'm not sure whether to place it in commodities or currency but that's a minor point. Portfolio replication, hedging and therefore pricing via Satan's Black-Scholes formula to price CB derivatives might be getting ahead of ourselves.
Let's work out a simple spot exchange in Dec 25th, 2012 terms for CBUSD (1pt:1 unit USD)
Thanks for any of the help from the more financial brethren.
