About Money & Custodians

Important questions to ask. What is your relationship with money?Do you have your money or does it have you? Do you or the Lord determine how you will use your money? Does the amount of money you have determine your happiness.... Your style of living? How do you use your money. This is especially true of those who lead the flock of God. Did you know that covetousness, or the love for money is one of the three sins that most often cause ministers' downfall (1:Females; 2: Fame; and 3: Fortune) Possession Can be Dangerous. Possessing money can arouse areas of sin and weakness we have failed to deal with in our lives. Paul says of the righteous law of God, "I would not have known about coveting if the law had not said, ' You shall not covet. 'But sin taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind. "(Rom 7:7) "But sin used this law against evil desires by reminding me that such desires are wrong and aroused all kinds of forbidden desires within me! ( Rom 7: 8) It is the same way with money as it is with the Law. Paul found that a righteous and good commandment of the law aroused the sin that dwelt in him. Money is not bad in itself. But when we have money, the potential for it to arouse covetousness, selfishness and greed is very strong.
