If you live in the United States, you are rich--this verse applies to you (you are not living in a mud hut, with flies crawling over your emaciated face). Note the specific use of the word "trust," the word "uncertain," and where your trust should be:
"Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy..." (1 Timothy 6:17).
The word "highminded" sure does describe us before we come to Christ. And there's nothing like having the rug pulled from under us, to bring us down to earth.
