 This is Jim Garlow. 1 Timothy 6.10 may be the most misquoted verse in the Bible. It says, For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. Money itself isn't evil. It's the love, or maybe the obsession of money, that can become the root of all other evil. Proverbs 10.22 is the other side of the coin. The blessing of the Lord makes a person rich, and he brings no sorrow with it.
