Ecclesiastes 5: 8 – 6: 12 “ seeing money for what it is” “ Money is in truth one of the most unsatisfying of possessions. It takes away some  cares , no doubt; but it brings with it quite as many cares as it takes away. There is the  trouble  in the  getting  of it. There is the  anxiety  in the  keeping  of it.

Ecclesiastes 5: 8 – 6: 12 “ seeing money for what it is” 1 Timothy 6: 6-10  6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.  7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.  8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.  9 People who want  to get rich fall into temptation and  a trap and into many foolish and  harmful desires that plunge men  into ruin and destruction.
Ecclesiastes 5: 8 – 6: 12 “ seeing money for what it is” 1 Timothy 6: 6-10  10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Ecclesiastes 5: 8 – 6: 12 “ seeing money for what it is” “ Money is the Jealous God of Israel before whom no other gods may exist … money is the general, self-sufficient value of everything. Hence, it has robbed the whole world, the human world as well as nature, of its proper worth. Money is the  alienated essence of man’s labor.” Karl Marx
