Error and Greed

Error and Greed

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...

Verse for the Day

Psalm 72:12-14 New King James Version (NKJV) ”For He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no helper. He will spare the poor and needy, And will save the souls of the needy. He will redeem their life from oppression and violence; And precious shall be their blood in His sight.” God cares for the needy, the afflicted, and the weak because they are precious to him. If God feels so strongly about these needy ones and loves them so deeply, how can we ignore their plight? Examine what you are doing to reach out with God’s love. Are you ignoring their plight or are you meeting their needs?  Life Application Study Bible “For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy. He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.”  (Psalm 72:12-14...

Today’s Thought

Life is short no matter how long we live. If there is something important we want to do, we must not put it off for a better day. Ask yourself, “If I had only six months to live, what would I do? “Tell someone that you love him or her? Deal with an undisciplined area in your life? Tell someone about Jesus? Because life is short, don’t neglect what is truly important. [a] “Lord, make me to know my end, And what is the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am.”    (NKJV) Psalm 39:4  [a]  Life Application Study Bible...

Thought for the Day

Trifling With Hearts— Relationships ”To trifle with hearts is a crime of no small magnitude in the sight of a holy God. And yet some will show preference for young ladies and call out their affections, and then go their way and forget all about the words they have spoken and their effect. A new face attracts them, and they repeat the same words, devote to another the same attentions. .This disposition will reveal itself in the married life. The marriage relation does not always make the fickle mind firm, the wavering steadfast and true to principle. They tire of constancy, and unholy thoughts will manifest themselves  in unholy actions. How essential it is, then, that the youth so gird up the loins of their mind and guard their conduct that Satan cannot beguile them from the path of uprightness”~~~~. (E. G. White Adventist Home p. 57) The Lord said to Job, ”Now prepare yourself  like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me.”‘ Job 38:3)...
