The document summarizes key passages from the Bible about finances. It discusses that godliness with contentment is great gain, as people brought nothing into this world and can take nothing out. It warns against the love of money being a root of evil and plunging people into ruin. It advocates teaching families that God owns everything, the value of work, and that contentment is the antidote to chasing money and things.
4. 6 but godliness with contentment is great
gain. 7 for we brought nothing into the world,
and we can take nothing out of it. 8 but if we
have food and clothing, we will be content
with that. 9 those who want to get rich fall into
temptation and a trap and into many foolish
and harmful desires that plunge people into
ruin and destruction.
