God's World Whole Life Stewardship - Word In Life Study Bible

NO GREEDY LEADERS!
1 Tim.3:3

Many church members today work in the marketplace where the mark of success is making and accumulating wealth. The same was true in Timothy’s congregation at Ephesus. So Paul warns about those who are “greedy for money” (1 Tim. 3:3). He has much more to say about wealth in chapter 6. See “Christians and Money” at 1 Tim. 6:6–19.

"All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us."

2 Corinthians 5:18-20 (NIV)
