"They seem almost proud to point out the power that I have in my hands, but it is the most pitiful thing they could point to. Youl 'cannot serve God and Mammon." So many people ready to serve the dollar means so many less to serve God. There are great opportunities to do good, but they are in men's hearts not my check book. A preacher in the name of Christ said this million should have been turned to good. He -hinks that God's wore is paid for in dollars.
