The rich (3)
"Some people pretend to be rich, but have nothing. Others pretend to be poor, but own a fortune."
(Proverbs 13.7 GNB)
Insecurity? Envy? Maybe different reason for different people. But the desire and pretence to be rich permeates mankind of every culture and a slippery slope that leads many astray.
"No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money."
(Matthew 6.24 NLT)
