For everything in the world—the lust ofthe flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.
Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless.
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
The stingy are eager to get rich and are unaware that poverty awaits them.
The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.
But godliness with contentment is great gain.
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.
But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.
Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs
