What the Bible says about Trust in Wealth
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Proverbs 18:10-12 In this illustration the person of wealth takes confidence in, trusts in, relies upon, whatever he thinks is his strength. The New International Version renders this series of verses as: The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it an unscalable wall. Before his downfall a man's heart is proud, but humility comes before [or precedes] honor. Men may give the proud man honor, but real honor is preceded by humility, not by pride. John W. Ritenbaugh Faith (Part Seven) Related Topics: Humility | Humility Precedes Honor | Pride Precedes Debasement | Pride Precedes Humiliation | Trust in Riches | Trust in Wealth
