1 Timothy 6:2-10 - False Teachers And True Contentment
2 But let those that have faithful masters not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather let them serve them, because they are the faithful and beloved who are partaking of the benefaction. Command these things and exhort them. 3 If any one teaches another doctrine, and does not give heed to the sound words which belonged to our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 he has been inflated, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and controversies, from which come envy, strife, blasphemies, evil surmisings, 5 wranglings of men having been corrupted as to their mind and turned away from the truth, considering that gain is godliness. 6 Godliness with contentment is great gain,
7 for because we have brought nothing into the world, we are not able to carry any thing out; 8 however having food and raiment we shall be contented with these.
9 But those wishing to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown the people in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is a root of all evils: which some seeking after have wandered from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
