MONEY MATTERS: DEBT
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Money Matters
a) What does Matthew chapter 6 say about money matters?
2. Debt
Matthew 6:24
24 “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
a) Some people get what they want by borrowing money, and soon find that they become the servants of Mammon. The Bible clearly says, to "Owe nothing to anyone" (Romans 13:8).
Romans 13:8
8 Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
b) Whilst there are other ways to serve Mammon, burdensome debt is by far the most common way. Remember that what everybody calls "credit" is really not credit at all. It is actually debit! Beware of it. Don’t become its slave.
