1 Timothy 6:6-7
*The word of the Lord*
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
*Summary*
The apostle Paul the Apostle teaches that true wealth is not measured by possessions but by a life devoted to God and marked by contentment.
Godliness means living in reverence, obedience, and devotion to God.
Contentment means being satisfied with what God has provided rather than being consumed by greed.
Since we enter the world with nothing and leave it with nothing, material possessions are temporary. What has lasting value is our relationship with God and the character we develop.
*Main Lesson*
Real riches come from godliness combined with contentment, not from accumulating wealth. The passage encourages believers to pursue a life centered on God, remembering that earthly possessions are temporary, while spiritual treasures have eternal significance.
Thanks be to God
