Rebuking in righteousness comes from a position of identification as a fellow sinner, but an acknowledgment that "What you are doing which is also what I am now struggling with, or have struggled with, or may very well be susceptible to in the future is wrong, yes of course we recognize that, but I'm not going to slam you.
Instead, let me walk alongside you and let me help extricate yourself from that sin just as I hope you would do with me if the positions were reversed. It helps us to take the plank out of our own eye before we take the speck out of our neighbor's eye.
Psalm 58, 68, 94, , , the Psalmist says some rather harsh things against the wicked. But notice that those things are not said to the wicked themselves, but offered up as a prayer to God. And in the final analysis, the Psalmist asks the Lord, in his righteousness, to exact whatever punishment the Lord deems fit. Perhaps, you could be considered as bad as a criminal in God's sight and it is money that is either directly taken from poor people by you or money that they deserve but you are wrongfully accepting.
This is like thieving and murder if it leads to someone else's death. If you earn more than a pension and want wage rises that increase costs, cause others unemployment, and destroy small business, you could be even considered a worse criminal. Every hard worker is entitled to a wage. So why are you not using your money, or time to fight for the rights of those slaving in poverty, for no more than pensioners wage all around you, instead of greedily trying to grab more for yourself? If you take more money than you need from the government through high public service wages it means less money for the government to help the poor.
Very few small business owners are fortunate enough to have a net earning of more than a pension. If you do, but don't use your profits for God's will, you are guilty of unfairly competing against and destroying other small businesses. That means you need to use all your money for God's will. The only other option is you give your paid occupation to someone who will use the income wisely for God's will and you do volunteer work earning at the pension rate. This could include helping the needy or doing God's ministry using your existing skills.
If you use your excess money for God's will, you will still have more money than most others who often work harder and are more clever than yourself. Also, you will have more than just the necessities if you don't waste your time on unnecessary things. Giving your current job away is probably the best option as your job probably involve promoting unnecessary or evil products and services. Also, it probably involves misleading people to be part of the world system, seek excessive money and spend money on unnecessary things.
In other words you are doing more harm than good. If you are unemployed, stop seeking a profession in a corrupt work force that gives excessive money that you may never find. Instead, you should volunteer to do God's will today. Then God's reward will be great.
