Money

A bartering tool, usually backed by some form of precious metal, that is perceived by others to have value and is used to acquire desired items.

The use of money has to be approached with care.

"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." (Timothy 6:10)

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." (Hebrews 13:5)

"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money." (Matthew 6:24)

“But man, despite his riches, does not endure; he is like the beasts that perish. This is the fate of those who trust in themselves…death will feed on them.” “A man who has riches without understanding is like the beasts that perish.” (Psalm 49:12-14; 20)

“blessed are you who are poor” ... “woe to you who are rich.” (Luke 6:20-27)
