Is this mistranslated?
Malachi 3:10: "'Bring to the storehouse a full tenth of what you earn so there will be food in my house. Test me in this,' says the Lord All-Powerful. 'I will open the windows of heaven for you and pour out all the blessings you need.
**Malachi 3:10 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**
```Dust
<10> Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in my house, and thus put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts; see if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you an overflowing blessing. ```
And?
I'm back
There is nothing wrong with having money, but you cannot serve money and serve god. God advocates for the giving to his church freely, and those who are more financially blessed should give more of what they have
@Deleted User I never said there is nothing wrong with having money
BRUH
I said being obscenely rich is sinful
That's what I've been saying this entire time
Okay
So riddle me this
If bill gates
Gave 20% every year to his church
20% of what he had
Would you be okay with that?
No
Let's assume he has 100B
He gives 20B
Why does his money concern you?
Why not give away all his money to charity and God and only keep what he needs to keep his mansion running and stuff

Oh spare me the communist soapbox
It's not communist
No one needs 100 billion
very true
I also don't need a toilet
I can go shit in the woods
But I'd prefer to have one
can someone feasibly spend 100b on anything even mildy useful?
even recreationally?
No
@Deleted User Unjust comparison
Not necessarily
A fair comparison would be toilet versuses diamonded studded toilet
Let's assume
For a second
That bill gates was an extremely devout Christian
