“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”
King James Version (KJV)

It means than cherished money as their God. Money is important to everyone.we are to use it wisely but do not make it our God

Remember how Jesus said that man cannot serve both God and mammon(riches, status, fleshly esteem)? Matthew 6:24, Luke 16:13

Frank, you are needed in the prayer request room. You have such an understanding of the Holy Spirit. He's so gentle. People need only to understand that God is not punishing us.

As Christians we study the Bible as our guide, and listen to the Holy Spirit. But my friend a lot of follow Christians miss out on a great thing you know the Lord loves us so much but he also wants a special relationship with us I encourage you to just take that time ,and talk to him open your heart ,and him tell how much you love him. Your on the right path God bless you.

The secret of success is hard work

If a person places their desire to have more money first in their lives, they are choosing not to put God first. When this happens their minds loose focus on God's will for their lives. Their focus is then easily pulled towards evil easy ways to obtain more money.

The love for money goes beyond the need for money. Only God can help our hearts to keep our priorities right but it must be a work we do on ourselves by understanding our needs, that God provides it to us for our good, that we dont have extort others because of it.

I pray for my family and for myself that we can all live lives worthy of earning a place in heaven. It is hard to get ahead in this life especially if you are not fortunate to have a college degree or have a low paying job and can barely pay rent. I pray that people realize not everyone is as fortunate as they are and while money takes away a lot of worries it cannot make them truly happy. Only love for one another can do this. And so I pray for love and peace and happiness on earth and that everyone one earth can have
these things. God will take care of the rest.

Halaluyah! The scripture has made it known to us that the power of greed and the love of money hanker our lives to all kind of evil which ends in brutality and as well hell. We are ment to understand that, it is the love bestow on money not money itself, for the book of ecclesiastis 10 vers 19. Says that money answereth all things, that means that money is good but not for love. God bless you.

I enjoy this scripture because it shows how the love of money leads to all types of evil. People murder for money, steal for money, lie for money, sell themselves for money, betray their friends and family for money and so many other evil things. Money in itself is not bad. In fact Ecclesiastes 7:12 brings out how money is a protection. It's when people place the love of money above all else that leads to the various types of evil.
