Matthew 6:21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.Matthew 13:22The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.Matthew 19:16Just then a man came up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?”Matthew 19:17“Why do you ask Me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”Matthew 19:18“Which ones?” the man asked. Jesus answered, “‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness,Matthew 19:19honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.’”Matthew 19:20“All these I have kept,” said the young man. “What do I still lack?”Matthew 19:21Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”Matthew 19:22When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.Matthew 19:23Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.Matthew 19:24Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”Matthew 19:25When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”Matthew 19:26Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”Matthew 19:27“Look,” Peter replied, “we have left everything to follow You. What then will there be for us?”Matthew 19:28Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, in the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.Matthew 19:29And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for the sake of My name will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.Mark 4:19but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.Mark 10:17As Jesus started on His way, a man ran up and knelt before Him. “Good Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”Mark 10:18“Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.Mark 10:19You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not cheat others, honor your father and mother.’”Mark 10:20“Teacher,” he replied, “all these I have kept from my youth.”Mark 10:21Jesus looked at him, loved him, and said to him, “There is one thing you lack: Go, sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”Mark 10:22But the man was saddened by these words and went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.Mark 10:23Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”Mark 10:24And the disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!Mark 10:25It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”Luke 12:15And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”Luke 18:18Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”Luke 18:19“Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.Luke 18:20You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”Luke 18:21“All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.Luke 18:22On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”Luke 18:23But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.Luke 18:24Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!Luke 18:25Indeed, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”1 Timothy 6:4he is conceited and understands nothing. Instead, he has an unhealthy interest in controversies and disputes about words, out of which come envy, strife, abusive talk, evil suspicions,1 Timothy 6:5and constant friction between men of depraved mind who are devoid of the truth. These men regard godliness as a means of gain.1 Timothy 6:6Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy 6:7For we brought nothing into the world, so we cannot carry anything out of it.1 Timothy 6:8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.1 Timothy 6:9Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction.1 Timothy 6:10For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.1 Timothy 6:11But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.1 Timothy 6:17Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy.1 Timothy 6:18Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,1 Timothy 6:19treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.James 2:6But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who oppress you and drag you into court?James 2:7Are they not the ones who blaspheme the noble name by which you have been called?James 5:1Come now, you who are rich, weep and wail over the misery to come upon you.James 5:2Your riches have rotted and moths have eaten your clothes.James 5:3Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and consume your flesh like fire. You have hoarded treasure in the last days.James 5:4Look, the wages you withheld from the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts.James 5:5You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in the day of slaughter.1 John 3:17If anyone with earthly possessions sees his brother in need, but withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God abide in him?Revelation 3:18I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed, and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see.
