1 Timothy 6:17-20

17Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment.

18Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others.

19By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.

20Timothy, guard what God has entrusted to you. Avoid godless, foolish discussions with those who oppose you with their so-called knowledge.
