Fist clue. What is wealth to a wise man?

I Counsel thee to Buy of Me Gold Tried in the Fire, that thou Mayest be Rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. Revelation 3:18

OK what does that mean in modern English?
like yahshua told all of his disciples : you must give up everything if you want to be my disciple.
and
again "whoever loves the things of the world cannot be a friend of yahweh.
and
once
more "get truth at all cost, ; guard your heart; avoid all forms of greed / make for yourselves purses that do not wear out --- get a treasure in heaven (not on earth where moth and rust and thief get it)

What that says to me is. That we must seek knowledge over all else! Also it says that to acquire wealth individual monetary wealth is wrong. It doesn't say what wealth is to a wise man!!!

true wealth is knowing yahweh. for instance, recognizing instantly that bowhunter is against him and goes contrary to his word, no matter what he speaks or posts. maybe he's a youngster. maybe demented. who knows? yahweh knows. but he has spoken frequently against yahweh's anointing, so ..... yahweh will deal with him.

what is written is better than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb?

psalm 19
The law of the Lord is perfect,
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple;
[SUP]8 [/SUP]the precepts of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes;
[SUP]9 [/SUP]the fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring for ever;
the ordinances of the Lord are true,
and righteous altogether.
[SUP]10 [/SUP]More to be desired are they than gold,
even much fine gold;

sweeter also than honey
and drippings of the honeycomb. [SUP]11 [/SUP]Moreover by them is thy servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
[SUP]12 [/SUP]But who can discern his errors?
Clear thou me from hidden faults.
[SUP]13 [/SUP]Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.

[SUP]14 [/SUP]Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in thy sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.

Decontroveral thank you. Do you think money is wealth to a wise man?
I think Solomon asked for wisdom above wealth and the destruction of His enemies and God gave him all three because Solomon was able to clearly see the value of wisdom....as far as money Goes....some covet after it and in so doing pierce themselves through with many arrows......I will also add that I have worked for and sat with men who are very wealthy....and they are some of the most discontent, vile, depressed and contrary men that I have ever met.....I sat at a table and ate with 5 men who had a combined net wealth of over a billion dollars....and they were never content and were never satisfied.......and their god was definetly $$$$$$

it's the message, scripture, the truth that is important, not you or me or bowhunter ....
if you trust posters without testing by scripture, no matter who they are, you won't find the truth.
if you're seeking the truth, you'll find a few posting it, and many not.
people posting against yahweh and yahshua, and lies as often as bowhunter, are not due any understanding. this will be clearer in a few days.(if,again, you're seeking truth - from scripture; not from me or any man).

if you're in the body of christ , we are in union as one in him. that is the hopeful and positive expectation.

those who post against the body of christ, are not in him as he says "whoever is not for me is against me"
and
the only way to see is, yahweh permitting, by testing everything by scripture.

that would be good. i don't know why he attacked others a few days ago, maybe longer. without cause or reason.

if he's not approving of the heresy (rcc catholic), that is a good sign for him.

but why he started attacking in his posts other posters a while back, i don't know if he ever revealed it yet.

that's what GOD'S WORD says, part of it where you read it, and more in many places ----

truth is rare. so is the "hearing of GOD'S WORD" . so is faith in Jesus. and experiencing union with HIM. these are all
part and the same in the life of the ekklesia - being called, chosen, sanctified, chastised, disciplined and taught by yahweh , experientially knowing yahshua, (in spirit and every part of life - every part being submitted to him as master).

as paul the apostle taught by revelation of yahshua said _ everything else is lower than trash compared to experiencing salvation and life and knowing experientially yahshua the messiah savior king master judge.

a whole life, spirit, soul, mind, desires, ambitions, hopes, loves, joys all submitted to yahshua willingly and joyously .... this is the most wonderful of all....
