He goes to church only on Easter and Christmas and only then because nobody else is at work and the financial markets are closed. I doubt it. He has left God out of his life and is in the process of losing the respect of his children. He may die a rich man, but he is likely to die a thousand deaths before then - deaths that involve aspects of his relationships with his wife and children, his health, his joy, his peace, his sense of fulfillment in life, and his friendships. God knew that money was a practical matter that would require our attention on a daily basis.
Money is a vital part of our lives.
We work and we expect to be paid for our work. We have bills to pay, things we need to buy with money in order to survive. For the most part, the Bible regards money as a medium of exchange. It is intended to be used for good and righteous purposes. It is a blessing of God given to us so that we might be stewards of a portion of the Lord's bountiful supply.
