Money, the Bible…and Me (Part 3-Income)

Speaker: Pastor Joe Ricchuiti
Series: Money, the Bible...and Me

Preacher: Pastor Joe Ricchuiti | Series: Money, the Bible…and Me

1.  The Biblical teaching about income begins with work:

-Work was a part of creation before the Fall; Adams work was his service to God; the Fall made work more difficult (Genesis 2:15; 3:17-19)

-Work brings a sense of worth, accomplishment, and dignity but should not define who we are.

-Work brings the respect of our neighbors (1 Thessalonians 4:11,12)

-The Bible warns against idleness (2 Thessalonians 3:6-12)

2.  Cautions concerning work and income:

-Beware of those schemes which promise a lot of return for a little work (Proverbs 29:20,22; 12:11)

-We must work diligently, not just talk a good game, planning but never getting anything done (Proverbs 22:13; 13:23; 28:19)

-We must work when it’s time to work (Proverbs 20:4; 21:25,26; 24:30-34)

-The Bible warns against defrauding an employer of our best effort (Ephesians 6:1,2; Colossians 3:22-24; Proverbs 10:26)

-The Bible warns against taking advantage of a Christian employer because they are a brother or sister in Christ (1 Timothy 6:1,2)
