Money offers comfort, luxuries and stability. Money cant buy love, happiness or health, money makes the world go around. It provides education, help people and causes we care about, beautiful homes…., but it can consume and destroy our lives as well. How can this be solved or be prevented? Well, money is not the problem, but our attitude towards it as seen in 1 Timothy 6:3-10 What do you think?
Error and Greed
If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.
Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1 Timothy 6:3-10 New King James Version (NKJV)
