The Love of Money

“No one can serve to masters. For you will hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

“The Pharisees, who dearly loved their money, naturally scoffed at this.” (Luke 16:13-14)

“…their love of money made them stumble into sin.” (Ezekiel 7:19)

“For the love of money is at the root of all kinds of evil.” (1Timothy 6:10)

You cannot serve both God and money!

My Brother’s Keeper

“Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself.” (Galatians 6:1, NLT)

““If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance, forgive.” (Luke 17:3, NLT)

“If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out the offense. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back.’ (Matthew 18:15, NLT)

A Faithful Brother

An open rebuke is better than hidden love! Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy. (Proverbs 27:5-6, NLT)

So…

Let the godly strike me! It will be a kindness! If they correct me, it is soothing medicine. Don’t let me refuse it. (Psalm 141:5, NLT)

“Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself.” (Galatians 6:1, NLT)
