Money

[Hebrew Christian]

Do money answer all things?

[BrandonL]

I'd answer your question, but you have to pay first

 

 

 

 

And no, money doesn't solve everything, although it probably makes some things a little easier.

THINGS MONEY CAN'T BUY
Donna M. Davis

Money can't buy peace of heart
A second chance or a brand new start
Rest for the soul when your heart is weary
A ray of sunshine when the day is dreary
Health when you're sick, youth when you're old
The love of one, whose love has grown cold

 

Money can't buy a heartfelt embrace
The innocent smile on a child's little face
Life at death's door, time when it's past
Joy when you're sad, first place when you're last
Friends when you're lonely, the sweet breath of life
The love of a husband or the love of a wife

 

Money can't buy courage or might
A time of peace when it's time to fight
Rain in a drought or dry in a flood
One precious drop of Jesus Christ's blood
Exemption from pain, freedom from worry
An extra hour in a day when you're in a hurry

 

Money can't buy loyalty or joy
The innocent heart of a girl or a boy
Experience and wisdom gained thru the years
Strength in your weakness, peace thru your fears
Faith when you doubt, right when you're wrong
The sweet sound of music when there isn't a song

 

Money can't buy the changing of fate
Like a soul that is lost when it is too late
An okay from God when you won't give up sin
Salvation from Christ if you won't let Him in
If you're living your life in hatred and strife
You can't buy a page in the Lamb's Book of Life

 

Money can't buy the things that are dear
Emotions, devotions, or a life of good cheer
Bountiful blessings God gives us for free
Cannot be purchased with money, you see
So, if we would hope for a prosperous way
Hope on things that won't rust or decay

 

The spilled blood of Jesus has bought what we need
In Him is security, from death we've been freed
No hungering or thirsting if righteousness we seek
Clothes for the poor, strength for the weak
You won't need your wallet to pay for your part
All you must do is give Him your heart

Do money answer all things?

 

 

Welcome to Worthy. 

 

To answer your question.

 

You may be rich or poor but the gift of God is free!

 

Joh 3:16 : "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. "

 

Now permit me to ask you a question     

 

What do you think the answer to your question is ? 

[Hebrew Christian]

The question was, "Do money answer all things".  I did not ask if money solved all things or the things money cannot buy.  To answer the question that was asked of me by ncn: I answer according to Scripture: "A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things" (Ecclesiastes 10:19 KJV).

A Little Drink For Folly

 

I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life. Ecclesiastes 2:3

 

And A Little Bite Of Them Tasty Eats

 

A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things. Ecclesiastes 10:19

 

And A Wad Of Green Dough To Help Make The Bail

 

Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. Ecclesiastes 7:11-12

 

But Where Is Wisdom?

 

Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city. For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. Ecclesiastes 7:19-20

 

Where Is Joy?

 

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts. Jeremiah 15:16

 

And In Whom Can A Man Hope?

 

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

 

When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

 

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:23-26

And Be Blessed Beloved

 

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:
The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

 

And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27

 

Love, Joe

To the question "Do money answer all things"and you quoted Ecclesiastes 10:19 KJV an answer accrdg. to the scripture "A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things" w/c I can say is not really what Solomon the author wanted to convey becoz He himself cannot find out w/c route is the most successful for him to take becoz he's wisdom is limited says here in( Ecc.8:1-8;17) Solomon's writing is giving the young people in his kingdom a warning to avoid walking through life in the path of human wisdom;exhorted them to live by the revealed wisdom of God (Ecc.12:9-14).

One needs to recall that Ecclesiastes is not like Proverbs, where each verse stands alone. This verse is one of a string of thoughts given by Solomon in a time of contemplating meaninglessness.

 

Read the whole chapter, and interpret it accordingly in context of the surrounding thoughts.

And in the context of Jesus' severe warnings about money in the Gospels.
