What Does the Bible Say About Wealth?
Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on wealth
Biblia sa zaoberá bohatstvom na viacerých miestach. Je dôležité si uvedomiť, že bohatstvo samo osebe nie je zlé, ale skutočným nebezpečenstvom je lakomstvo a posednutosť majetkom. Biblia nás učí, že je dôležité mať správny postoj k bohatstvu a používať ho na Božiu slávu a na pomoc druhým.
