I am saving the below I saw shared online saying claiming to serve Jesus but chasing after money didnt work out for judas not because I am sure to agree to work to give to poor is wrong but I am going to try to focus not on making more than I need to test it until it is maybe exposed as selfish not working for others too.
My mum says laying up treasure on earth means only if you live to do that only so that there is no room that it replaces your relationship with God and seeking to please Him by your life.
"Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein."- John 12:4-6 KJV
"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."- Matthew 6:19-21 KJV
"If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God." - Colossians 3:1-3 KJV
