Ecclesiastes 5:10 “Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income.  This too is meaningless. We have heard–the love of money is the root of all evil.  We have to be careful in condemning wealthy people as many faithful, God-fearing Biblical persons were wealthy.  What separated them from the wealthy persons of their time and our time is their attitude toward their assets and God.  Our wealth is to be used in service to our God.  God blesses and man learns from the Teacher to bless his fellow man with his wealth.  We could substitute selfishness is the root of all evil and we might understand more correctly.
