I read this in the passage of 1 Timothy 6:5-10..
-- men of corrupt mind, who hae been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. 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. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap an into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men 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.
Money is not the root of all evil. But the LOVE of money definitely is.
I agreed!
Many times, i reminded myself, not to sacrifice my righteousness due to money, But to use money as a medium to bless others. MOney is a powerful tool. And this passage clearly remind me that, whoever want to get rich, beware of falling into temptation and many harmful things.
Reminder is good. :)
