By the two verses that were applied to my Pt.1 thread it identifies the principle by which we are to follow after JESUS CHRIST and not the world, living wisely and not chasing after things of treasure, but rather those treasures of righteousness and GOD through his son lord JESUS CHRIST.
As I continue it most vital that the following verse be adamantly applied and is one of the primary reasons for all of us to avoid wealth in this world; as a one would avoid a plague or disease.

It pertains to Lazarus the poor begger; with it we can determine and ascertain the truth by which those whom follow after riches evolve.

**Luke 16:19-31

New International Version (NIV)**

The Rich Man and Lazarus

19 “*There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’

25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’

27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’

29 “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’

30 “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’

31 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”*

This pretty much sums up where our principles and dependence should be entrust with…grace of GOD through his son JESUS.

Praise be to GOD the heavenly father and his son lord JEUS CHRIST forever>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Then, there’s the one from John the Baptist which said he who has 2 coats must share with the one who has none, and the one with food must also do the same.
 
Your precept is flawed, in that Wealth is not to be avoided like the plague, but rather we are to be good stewards of what we have. Wealth can be used for good and evil, and that is what we should remain cognizant of.
