Money, money, money!!! #3

Yesterday we looked at a couple of examples from the bible of what the love of money will do to people. We seen Delilah and Judas were over come by their greed for money and did some evil things. Like I said earlier money in itself is neutral, neither good nor evil, but the love of money causes all kinds of evil. Look at this verse:



Ecclesiastes 10:19



19 A feast is made for laughter,

And wine makes merry;

But money answers everything.



This is the mindset so many get in, partying and money is life! NOOOOOOO! Money is not the answer, Jesus Christ is the answer. Sadly money can get almost anything done if you have enough of it, but money can't buy salvation or peace. Jesus Christ is the only way for that! Look at this warning from Jesus:



Matthew 6:24

24 “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.



Mammon is money. Jesus is clear here that we can't serve both God and money! So let us look at our lives and honestly answer the question, am I serving God or money? What do you love more God or money and the things it can get you? Hmmmm really give this some thought and heed the warning from Jesus. If we look at the society we live in I believe we can see clearly the answer for most! MONEY!
