|---|---|---|
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
|
He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
|
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
