From this is it true one should not seek riches just needs of food and clothing which involves money for medical bills for life and if it is true godliness with contentment is great gain and having food and clothing we shall be content because we can carry nothing out of this world and the rich should be rich in good works it seems the rich should not store up riches on earth only enough for their needs and childrens needs for food and clothing which involves money for medical bills.
But we know anyone can still be saved so if he can not do because of circumstance such as getting into car accident one will not be condemned but I believe raised in the world to come in a state as though on this earth that he didnt crash to work out one salvation and likewise if one calls on the Lord repenting of not doing one will still be saved or have chance to work out salvation in the world to come but one needs to seek to do what is possible so that whatever is possible one has to do even if only can call on christ but if one does not die more is possible but God is merciful that unless He gives long time to do more when one is seeking that for long time one is making very small effort one is accepted to do nothing but if he dies during that long time of doing very small effort will not be accepted.
One does not have to sell his possesions also if one sells his money because such is not possible to quickly needing much effort but need to sell many of his possesions to be saved only immediately on death but if he doesnt he will still be saved later.
1 Timothy 6:6-20
6 Now godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content. 9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
The Good Confession
11 But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13 I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate, 14 that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ’s appearing, 15 which He will manifest in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.
Instructions to the Rich
17 Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. 18 Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, 19 storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
Guard the Faith
20 O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge— 21 by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith.
Grace be with you. Amen.
