Mark 12:
15 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”
But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” 16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
“Caesar’s,” they replied.
17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”
Matthew 6
19“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.22“The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy,[SUP]c[/SUP] your whole body will be full of light. 23But if your eyes are unhealthy,[SUP]d[/SUP] your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!24“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Mark 12
:4443Calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, "Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury; 44for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on."
Mark 4
19 but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful.
Was it not for money CHRIST was betrayed?
Was it not for money Aananias and his wife dropped dead?
Was it not for money that Simon the Sorcerer thought he could buy the HOLY SPIRIT?
