1 Timothy 6:3-10 - False Teachers And The Love Of Money

3 If any man teaches something different, and does not associate with wholesome words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine according to piety, 4 he is puffed up, understanding nothing, but doting about disputes and word controversies, from which develop envy, strife, revilings, evil surmisings, 5 constant frictions of men corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing piety to be a means of gain. Withdraw from such. 6 But piety with contentment is great gain,

7 for we brought nothing into the world. It is clear that neither can we carry anything out, 8 but having food and covering we will be content with these.

9 But those who want to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, which sink men in destruction and ruin. 10 For the love of money is a root of all the evils, of which some aspiring have wandered from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
