WISDOM FROM THE BIBLE
The Bible acknowledges . . .
“Money is a protection.”—ECCLESIASTES 7:12.

“The one hastening to get rich will not remain innocent.”—PROVERBS 28:20.
“Those who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and many senseless and harmful desires.”—1 TIMOTHY 6:9.

“Guard against every sort of greed, because even when a person has an abundance, his life does not result from the things he possesses.”—LUKE 12:15.
“Do not forget to do good and to share what you have with others.”—HEBREWS 13:16.
What are the benefits?

“The generous person will prosper, and whoever refreshes others will himself be refreshed.”—PROVERBS 11:25.
