IF Money is the ROOT of EVIL, Then Why Use It Seeing What It Does To People?

richie_2uk · May 1, 2013

If Money is not the root of all evil? you think that the bible is lieing? it says clearly in the bible. 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

Why would Jesus say that if it weren't? IT Says it, whether you yourself have your own understanding of it and not God's understanding, IT SAYS IT IS. and if it says it is, Believe it. its there in the BIBLE, HONEST have a look! 1 Timothy 6:10

I'm just saying...
it says the "love of money"...
not money in itself...
there's a huge difference with that...

"cravings"
-you see, we put our resources to what we "love the most"
it's like idolatry... no, IT IS IDOLATRY
we wander from God because are eyes starts to get fixed on something else

and that was my point...

I was referring to the scriptures too...

though I don't really think I'll be able to explain to you what I mean...
>.< :/

I understand you. the love of money is not, Didn't Jesus himself had a treasurer? But I was referring to the actual Question that the thread says, If money is the root of evil. I was merely answering the question and not the comments that people are saying, There is not if or but's. it does says clearly in the bible that money is the root of all evils, Maybe the person who posted this thread may have asked the question a little more specific. God bless

sorry.
misquote. another KJV sad translation.
even the NLT got it right

Luke 17:21
New International Version (©2011)
nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is in your midst."

New Living Translation (©2007)
You won't be able to say, 'Here it is!' or 'It's over there!' For the Kingdom of God is already among you."

English Standard Version (©2001)
nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.”

New American Standard Bible (©1995)
nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or, 'There it is!' For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst."

He meant Himself, and the confirming of the Covenant and the salvation He was bringing.
He said it to those who were right there.
The Pharisees, namely.

20Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, 21nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

the KJV unfortunate translation means either pantheism or universalism.
k...thx

Another example of nit picking at absolutely nothing. It means the same thing. Other passages of scripture show the forebrain thing is the way The LORD will get u. Moreover the KJV believers believe you're wrong and not really saved either. Lol! U can BS other Christians, but u can't BS against the truth. The WHOLE truth will be your undoing. Watch.

fix it.
it's not nothing.

it doesn't mean the same thing at all.

Besides, my own experience in 1999 proves what will happen. That is how The LORD, The Father handled me. And such is how it will handle u as well. It's amazing how your Christian beliefs clash in so many ways in the who's large and in charge, Who came first. The Father, or the son. the Father is the ONLY eternal. None sits at The LORD's right or left Hand. Yet there u go again being goofy and two-faced confused about Who IS and comes first- and last. Your belief clashes with other parts of the
Bible, while I suffer no such nonsense. Exactly because I observe and adhere to The Absolute Whole Truth And Nothing- But- Whatsoever.

I'm in the same boat as you - I am working but not bringing in, yet, what I truly need. Yesterday my brakes were grinding, bad. At Midas, brake job $207.55 which I don't have. Because I always use that Midas shop they are letting me pay what I can on my next 2 or 3 paydays. I prayed about the brakes all day yesterday, asked God to help me get this done so I could keep working. And He did!!! My landlord is being very understanding about the rent, too. I still owe most of April and now May and he's letting me pay paycheck by paycheck as well. I still stay in God's word, pray continually and am grateful for all these blessings, each and every one. And I find rest and peace and joy in His Word regardless of my checkbook. Yes, money would help and I admit to praying for a financial miracle but until then God is still God and I still LOVE HIM.

Lol U just ignore the parts of what I said in trying to score empty points. Many, many Christians would disagree with u on a host of levels. But that means nothing because they're called Christian??? Lol! We'll see soon enough who's clueless and will be hangin' out to dry, won't we???

Most of u won't like me at all. As expected, as prescribed. It's your end as a Christian, your undoing. Such a thief is worthy of death in this court before your Christian eyes, no? Ever think about why so many religions exist? Somebody must be lying thru their teeth and confused. There's but ONE God, and all these different religions??? It's a no-brainer to figure out the reality.

Communism has banks police armies, lawyers, politicians. What I am talking about doesn't.

Three questions First without police and an army how do you keep away from anarchy? And two how would you set up this system so that it could actually work? And how would you propose to make it so that it is equatable?

My post on Proverbs 6 answers this. All we need to do make the resources available to all.

Does anyone here even know the basics of how the banking system works?
