4. The person who teaches falsely is full of pride and understands nothing. He is sick with a love for arguing and fighting about words. And that brings jealousy, making trouble, insults, and evil mistrust.
5. And that also brings arguments from men who have evil minds. They have lost the truth. They think that serving God is a way to get rich.
6. It is true that serving God makes a person very rich, if he is satisfied with what he has.
7. When we came into the world, we brought nothing. And when we die, we can take nothing out.
8. So, if we have food and clothes, we will be satisfied with that.
9. Those who want to become rich bring temptation to themselves. They are caught in a trap. They begin to want many foolish things that will hurt them, things that ruin and destroy people.
10. The love of money causes all kinds of evil. Some people have left the true faith because they want to get more and more money. But they have caused themselves much sorrow.
