And now, Admonition.
I heard a phrase growing up that I don't hear much anymore, maybe it's being said just not around me, but it was someone's "filthy rich." We should never be filthy rich. We should never be so rich that it destroys our purity. But Paul writes to Timothy and he says, command those who are rich in this present age, not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them... All right, if you're rich, this applies to you. ...Let them do good, that they may be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share.
If you're rich today, there's your call. Be ready to give, ready to share, and rich, not in money, but in good works.
