Jesus had none in his own pocket (Matt. 22:19), neither did His disciples Peter and John had any gold and silver (Acts 3:6). But they had a purse held by Judas who carried off what was put into it. The Lord does have money (Matt. 25:27) which He entrusted to His servants.

Money is never dirty unless it fell in the toilet (but you can still wash it clean). What's dirty is how people use it. If you use it for good, money can do something good. If you use it for bad, it will do things bad. However, there is in money that makes it a tool for tempting people to use it for bad reasons. That's because money represents power, power to buy almost anything. While people are basically good, our instincts can lean strongly, if not naturally, towards the bad. And that's money got its bad reputation. And Jesus used money (gold and silver) during his time.

Money is not the dirtiest thing on earth, the LOVE of money is and that love is the root of all evil. Did the Lord have money when He was on earth? He didn't have any that was claimed as "His," but He did accept help and donations from those around Him. He didn't really need it as He proved when he fed the multitudes twice, but He bound Himself by the rules of this world, so paid for things as necessary.

Money itself is neutral. Yes, it can be a danger to make you greedy and make you slide to materialism. But money also has the potential to be used for good - for building of God's Kingdom! Money is needed to build churches and places of worship. It can also used to feed the hungry and help the poor. It can sustain your family's needs. So money itself is not evil. It is just how you are going to use it.

Money in and of itself is not dirty. The Bible says the "love of money" is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10). Jesus had money on earth because He had a treasure - Judas (John 12:3-6; John 13:29). He also told Peter where to get money to pay their taxes (Matthew 17:27). Jesus was rich here on earth. He wants His servants to be rich on earth as well because how can you help anyone without money. You can't give to the poor and get them off the streets, you can't change the focus of the world without having some sor tof influence and the Bible says money answereth all things (Ecclesiastes 10:19). http://adonaipublishing.com
