And the conflict that existed between Paul and the church in Corinth gives us the understanding that we need.

How To Acquire True Wealth
We all have struggles with financial insecurity. Whether we have too much or not enough - if you put too much trust in your money - you are insecure. Why? Because finances are not true security. Financial insecurity has a cost because it robs us of the TRUE peace that comes from God. True security and true wealth come from God because He is the giver of wealth. True wealth is knowing and being known by the giver of wealth. Whether we have a lot of money or not, money is a tool to know the Father’s love, affirmation and care. Knowing him is the greatest value. When we are faithful to Him with our money, we are freed from the burden of earning money in the flesh and we experience His joy in giving.
The Way of Cain | Genesis 4:16-25
The life of a Christian is a fight, a good and worthy fight, but a fight nonetheless.

This is the way of Cain and it only leads to sorrow.
