2 Thessalonians 2:¹⁶God our Father loves us. He is kind and has given us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope.
Romans 5: ⁸But God showed how much he loved us by having Christ die for us, even though we were sinful. Romans 8: ³⁸I am sure that nothing can separate us from God's love - not life or death, not angels or spirits, not the present or the future, ³⁹and not powers above or powers below. Nothing in all creation can separate us from God's love for us in Christ Jesus our Lord! (CEV)
1. How can God's love for us help us to do the right thing?

1 Timothy 6: ⁵.... They have wicked minds and have missed out on the truth. These people think religion is supposed to make you rich. ⁶And religion does make your life rich, by making you content with what you have. ⁷We didn't bring anything into this world, and we won't take anything with us when we leave. ⁸So we should be satisfied just to have food and clothes. ⁹People who want to be rich fall into all sorts of temptations and traps. They are caught by foolish and harmful desires that drag them down and destroy them. ¹⁰The love of money causes all kinds of trouble. Some people want money so much that they have given up their faith and caused themselves a lot of pain. (CEV)
2. What is more painful, knowing you have missed Heaven or being burned at the stake?

Ecclesiastes 5: ¹⁰If you love money and wealth, you will never be satisfied with what you have. This doesn't make sense either. ¹¹The more you have, the more everyone expects from you. Your money won't do you any good - others will just spend it for you. ¹²If you have to work hard for a living, you can rest well at night, even if you don't have much to eat. But if you are rich, you can't even sleep. (CEV)
3. Explain why Christians are rich even if they work hard and are paid little.

Psalms 119: ¹¹I treasure your word above all else; it keeps me from sinning against you.... ¹⁴⁰Your word to me, your servant, is like pure gold; I treasure what you say. 
Colossians 2: ²I do it to encourage them. Then as their hearts are joined together in love, they will be wonderfully blessed with complete understanding. And they will truly know Christ. Not only is he the key to God's mystery, ³but all wisdom and knowledge are hidden away in him. (CEV)
4. What are some reasons we remain loyal to Jesus no matter what happens to us?

Matthew 6: ²¹Your heart will always be where your treasure is. Proverbs 14: ¹⁴You harvest what you plant, whether good or bad. (CEV)
5. Describe the link between your treasures and your heart.
