Money Wants to RuleMatthew 6:24

Are you a slave to money?

“I don’t want millions… just a little more”

“A person ruled by money makes decisions about jobs and where his family will live based solely on how much he will make. He does not factor in what is best for his family spiritually. He chases a dollar when he should be home chasing his kids in a game of tag.”

HE DOES NOT GIVE SCRIPTURALLY!

I Timothy 6:9-10
