How Rich are You...


How rich are you?  Perhaps that is a question that we all should ponder.  Jesus taught about money more than just about anything.  Billy Graham once wrote this, “The key of the selfish, unregenerate person is get. The key word of the dedicated Christian should be give. The Prodigal Son set off a series of negative events destined for failure when he said to his father, ‘Give me the portion of goods that falleth to me’ (Luke 15:12).” “Our Lord’s command was, ‘Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over…’ (Luke 6:38). Yet it was more than a command. It was an invitation to glorious and abundant living. If a person gets his attitude toward money straight, it will help straighten out almost every other area of his life.”  Check this website out.  See how rich you are. http://www.globalrichlist.com/
