Ray, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to call you out for this one. Ray Comfort wrote, "There are certain Bible verses that are often misquoted by the ungodly. One of them is 'Money is the root of all evil,' when the Bible says no such thing." The Bible says at 1 Timothy 6:10: "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." Your thoughts? many griefs. Your thoughts? Debunkey Monkey
I wrote a book saying that Atheists don’t think. If they thought, they would know that God exists. I don’t say that to be cruel or condescending. I say it because it’s true. Denying God’s existence is like denying the existence of the sun at noon on a cloudless day. Some things are axiomatic, for those who think.
The above comment shows why atheists are so quick to embrace the theory of evolution. People who don't think don’t investigate what they believe. They also believe that the Bible is full of mistakes, because they don’t think enough to search for the truth.
The Bible doesn't say that money is the root of all evil. There's nothing wrong with money. It's good to be able to buy food for your family, and to pay your mortgage.
The world misquotes "Money is the root of all evil" and thus blames the money, when the Bible puts the blame where it belongs. On you and me--"the love of money." When we love money, we open the doors to all sorts of evil. People lie, steal, kidnap, hate, covet, and kill because they love money. So which do you love--God or money? The Bible says that it will be one or the other, but it cannot be both. You will know which one you love by what you place your trust in, for the future.
