THE PURPOSE OF MONEY<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Money is not to be trusted. There is a reason our forefathers put “In God We Trust” on our money. We don’t put our faith in money, we put it in God. Money is to be used. If God has made some rich, and everyone in the U.S. is rich by the world’s standards, then He gave it to us to do good in the world. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hoarding money will impoverish the soul. Using money for good makes one truly rich. Money can be used to make us truly rich in three ways:<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
1) Rich in good works.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
2) Rich in generosity.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
