If MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL... WHAT/WHO IS THE DEVIL?

money is the root of all evil comes from the fact that Judas' betrayal was motivated by money

Judas was ? off that Jesus poured out an expensive ass bootle of perfume

Judas also was in charge of holding the money bag when they traveled. dude was,,uhhhhh,enamored,jaded or whatever by money

Isnt the devil the prince of darkness?... The total opposite of ? ?... So why isnt the devil the root of all evil?

well, the love of money is the root of all evil, when ppl start giving in to their lusts whatever it may be, it will bring on sin, & the devil is there to tempt you of your lusts so when you give in to that ? he is right there... It all falls on that person, the devil can't make anyone do anything other than tempting them w/their lusts.

1 Timothy 6:10
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.


James 1:13-15 (King James Version)

13Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of ? : for ? cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

14But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own ? , and enticed.

15Then when ? hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Maybe i shouldn't be surprised, but the sheer number of times folk misquote that verse is surprising. I hear it being cited often by peeps on radio, internet and everywhere else and 99% of the time say it wrong! lol.

there must be fewer ppl in the world that actually read the bible than what i thought.

Yeah, in the WORLD there is fewer. You think everyone has a copy or somehow should magically know the Word of ? and think it's impossible for them to NOT know.

What verse is misinterpreted? Because to me, you're misinterpreting a verse in another thread. *shrugs*

Money itself isn't evil

Placing love, faith, and trust into money is.

Read up on the Deadly Sins

I know all the deadly sins and how they work. I'm just wondering what constitutes 'loving money'. I hear people correcting that phrase all the time, and I can't help but think these people are just in denial. lol Would you say a millionaire would not be guilty of loving money?

The fact that some people will do ANYTHING for it(cheat, lie, steal, ? , sell their own children)..all those are acts are satanic influence.
The thing about it you have some pastors that'll preach prosperity, think they're doing The Most High's work by teaching tithing, helping the community(underprivileged), but some will only think of themselves and buy big mansions, Rolls Royce, private jets...you know the usual suspects in the prosperity movement so I'm not gonna make a list.

Cosign. Every good and perfect gift comes from above. So when we thank the Lord for His abundant blessings, we are giving the just honor due to the king that provided it in the first place. When you love money, the money is your ? . The true and living ? has been replaced by an idol that can't hear, speak, or walk. ? says that, "The silver is mine and the gold is mine,' declares the LORD Almighty." (Haggai 2:8) So everything belongs to Him. Money was created by ? . But when you replace the love that your SUPPOSE to have for ? with and idol, it is an abomination. Which ultimately will be worthy of hell fire. ? bless.

Trick question, neither money nor love of money are the "root of all evil".
