Wealth Genders Pride
Mark 10:23-27
And Jesus looked round about, and said to his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!…


Who almost is there whose heart does not swell with his bags? and whose thoughts do not follow the proportions of his condition? What difference has been seen in the same man poor and preferred? his mind, like a mushroom, has shot up in a night; his business is first to forget himself, and then his friends. When the sun shines, then the peacock displays his train.

(R. South, D. D.)
