Lets just believe that God faithfull as He is will shine His light on this issue. Read I tim 6:9 then you will understand why verse 10 said what it said. Desire to be rich is the Love of Money, very clear. Money is the Enemies biggest tool to instill the characters that will take us away from the throne ( Take note i did not say "take us away from the Kingdom") If you sick God's face and voice all the time be watchfull when Money comes your way, it will distract you from your walk Thank God for Grace we will alway be drawn back to the throne Paul warns of time like this, not to sit and dispute about the word of God.

to be honest, it really doesn’t matter whether or not we agree – the fact is that 1 Tim 6.10 doesn’t say that Money is the root of all evil, it says that it is the love of it…

I STRONGLY disagree with this article." It is not the Love of money , it is money that is the root of all evil" Listen : Am inlove with Jesus and He is the best Lover of all time most understanding, most passionat of all, most bearing of all , i can go on all day. If you Love Jesus in this same way and you are a spirit filled christain and you are sensitive to his presence at all time then all of a sudden you get get this explosive amount of money that He blessed you with. I am speaking from experience, i have no love for money at all, all i want is to c his face at all times to hear from Him at all times, to sit on the on the throne with Him i mean 1 on 1 with Him at all time, People i Love this Guy and my priorities are straight. Getting back to the ponit. U recieve an explosive amount of money, the 1st day u pray and say God help manage this gift , show me where to sow , show me who to bless, show me what your will is . Then you go into the world then you start spending and spending (after u have sown where He wants payed ur tithes), u will realise that in a way loftiness starts kicking in , arrogance start kicking in, disregard for peoples feelings start kicking . B4 u know it that spirit filled person you were is going away and away.Thats why the bible says If u invest in the flesh you will reap the flesh if you invest in the spirit you will reap the spirit. My freind the answer here is gird your loin, stand, stay awake, stay hot, stay on the throne, stay connected with the vine and He will see you thruogh the journey and He will train you on how to not slip away from Him next time He blesses you.

When money ceases to become the means by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of other men. Blood, whips and guns--or dollars. Take your choice--there is no other. " Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged. I'm sure that she pointed out. If you notice all of the people that say that it is the root of all evil, are also the people that don't know how to earn it. “Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction.

Steal- Robbing other people for money Covert- Jealous people have more money or wanting more never being satisfied. Dishonouring Parents- taking them to court, making false statements about them to get money off them. Love Money above God- treating money as a God loving it and being a slave to it. Serving money- Bowing down to it and serving money as you would serve a god. Keeping the sabbath holy- instead of honouring God, they skip church to earn money. so really the love of money can cause someone to break all of the ten commandments- Mat 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. choose men whom this day you will serve, The LORD Jesus Christ or Mammon- you cannot serve both.
