It's often a surprise to Christians when they find out how much the Bible speaks about money. In fact, there are more than 2,300 verses that discuss wealth, possessions, and finances. Jesus spoke about money in 15% of his teachings and in 11 of the 39 parables. It was his most talked-about topic.
The Bible contains more than 2,300 verses about money. This includes topics such as wealth, possessions, greed, monetary mindset, satisfaction, investment, and more. The Bible is full of advice and instructions on how to manage our finances and honor God with our money. In 1973, Howard, a successful businessman, compiled all the Scriptures that talk about money and possessions into a single thematic index.
The Bible talks about money because God loves us and doesn't want it to hurt us. Instead, He wants us to use it as a tool to bless our families, others, and finance the advancement of His kingdom.
