1 TIMOTHY
CHAPTER 6
VERSE 17-18
(NIV)
COMMAND THOSE WHO ARE RICH IN THIS PRESENT WORLD NOT TO BE ARROGANT OR PROUD NOR PUT THEIR THEIR HOPE IN WARMTH,WHICH IS SO UNSETEIND BUT TO PUT THIER HOPE IN GOD,WHO RICHLY PROVIDES US WITH EVERYTHING FOR OUR ENJOYMENT
18 COMMAND THEM TO DO GOOD, TO BE RICH IN GOOD DEEDS AND TO BE GENEROUS AND WILLING TO SHARE.
MEANING: INSTRUCT THOSE WITH WEALTH TO FOCUS IN GOOD DEEDS,GENEROSITY,AND SHEARING. RATHER THAN IN TRUSTING POSITIONS,THIS APPROACH IS DESCRIBEB AS STORING UP A SECURE FOUNDATION FOR THE FUTURE AND EMBARRASSING TRUE LIFE
