MONEY

  • IS MONEY THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL?
The love of money is a root of all sorts of injurious things." _1 Timothy 6:10

WHAT SOME PEOPLE SAY: Money is root of all evil.
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS: "The love of money" --not money itself -- causes "injurious things." In the Bible wealthy King Solomon identified three kinds of injurious things that often happen to people who love money. Worry: " The plenty belongings to the rich one does not permit him to sleep." (Ecclesiastes 5:10) Temptation to break the law: The one hastening to get rich will not remain innocent."--Proverbs 28:20.

  • What purpose does money serve?
WHAT SOME PEOPLE SAY: Money makes you secure and happy.

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS: The myth that money buys happiness and security is part of "The deceptive power riches. "(Mark 4:19) Still, "money can buy the things you need to survive---Such as food and medicine.--2 Thesalonians 3:12.

Money also helps you to take care of your family. In fact, the Bible States; if anyone does not provide for those who are his own, and especially for those who are members of his household, he has disown the faith,"1 Timothy 5:8.


  • How can you use money wisely?
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS: Use money in a way that has God's approval. (Luke16:9) It is wise to use money responsibly and honestly. (Hebrew) 13:18) To avoid the burden of living beyond your means, let your way of life be free of the live of money." --Hebrew 13:5.

Although the Bible doe not condemn debt, it warns: "The borrower is a slave to the lender,." (Proverbs 21:5) Instead, "set something aside according to [your]own means" and save money for what is important to you. --1Chorinthians 16:2.

The Bible encourages us to " practice giving. " (Luke 6:38) People who want to please God have good reason to be generous, because " God loves a cheerful giver." 2Corinthians 9:7) Therefore, "do not forget to do good and to share what you have with others, for God is well pleased with such sacrifices. " --Hebrew13:16•
