Fact Check, 46



~ Wealth Is Bad ~        

Bible Quotation?  ~  Money is the root of all evil .”

The Bible Says  ~  The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows” (1 Timothy 6:10).

The Significance  ~  1) It is not “money” but “love of money.”  2) It is not “the root” but rather “a root.”  3) It is not “all evil” but “all kinds of evil.” 

Comment  ~  Anything which you love more than God is a problem!  The love of an earthly relationship, of your reputation, a prized possession, and so forth, can also be roots of all kinds of evil
