DOES GOD WANT YOU TO BE RICH ? HOW HARD IT IS FOR A RICH MAN TO ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. MAT 19:23. -------------------------------------------------------------- QUIT GOING TO FALSE TEACHERS FOR ANSWERS CONCERNING MONEY, FOR EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MONEY IS FOUND IN THE BIBLE. : MANY EXAMPLES BELOW. -------------------------------------------------------------- 1 TIM 6:5 TO 11. 5) Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 6) But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7) For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9) But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10) For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11) But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. -------------------------------------------------------------- MAT 19:23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. MAT 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. --------------------------------------------------------------- Mat 6:19-21 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Mat 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. ------------------------------------------------------------------ PROV 23:4. Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. ------------------------------------------------------------------- JAMES 2:5. Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? -------------------------------------------------------------------- LUKE 12:16 TO 21. 16) And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17) And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18) And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. 19) And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 20) But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21) So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ YOUR LIFE ON EARTH IS BUT A VAPOR THAT APPEARS FOR A LITTLE WHILE, AND THEN VANISHES AWAY JAMES 4:14. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOR WHAT WILL IT PROFIT A MAN IF HE GAINS THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSES HIS OWN SOULS ? MARK 8:36. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- AND HE SAID UNTO THEM, TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS, FOR A MANS LIFE CONSISTS NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THINGS WHICH HE POSSESSES. LUKE 12:15.
