In 1 Timothy 6:9-11 the Bible shows us what we should believe about being rich and turning ourselves over to money. Here is what the KJV shows: "Those 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. 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. 11But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.…"
Looking at these verses it is not hard to understand the meaning. God is showing through Timothy that our desire should be on righteousness, Godliness, our faith, our love for God and one another, our continual work of persevering to the end and being gentle to all. But, as many have done....they fall into the temptation of money and what it can do for themselves. I know many who have great wealth, yet continue to act like they have nothing therefore continuing in their steadfast pursuit for more riches. They never seem to find a satisfactory point where they feel they have enough. I suppose this same pursuit has taken over many of our preachers from the past to the present in that we now have an exorbitant number of preachers who are multi-millionaires. In the list below you will find some you may have heard of, some not and some you may know personally. Our desire here is for you to learn who these preachers are and ask yourself one simple question.....Why do they need so much money in their personal bank accounts, yet still beg their congregation to give sacrificially for more and more money while they themselves do not give sacrificially at all?
