「但這寡婦是自己不足，把她一切養生的都投上了。」（可12:44 新國際版）

今天我們談論「清洁的錢」和「肮臟的錢」，但是在神的眼光中，一概稱為「不義的瑪門」。你只要問一問自己，錢引領你親近神，或使你离開神，那你就可以證明「不義的瑪門」這句話的真實性了。你不能事奉神，又事奉瑪門。怎樣才能將這些服事撒但利益的錢，轉為建立神國度的用處呢？到底我們需要什么，才能切斷那連系該撒，和印上該撒肖像之錢的關系呢？

如果你的錢要從世界里出來，你自己也必須先從世界里出來。只是單單將錢奉獻到神的庫房里去，并不能改變你所奉獻之錢的性質。除非你的生命也和你的錢一同獻上，否則你的錢，也不能從撒但的國度里，被釋放到神的國度里去。保羅論及馬其頓的信徒如此說：「他們先把自己獻与主。」（林后8:5）今天談到金錢這一方面，撒但的資源好像是無限的，但在神手中那有效的現款，卻因著只有少數奉獻給主而受到限制。愿你將所賺到的每一塊錢，立即周轉為圣所里流通的貨幣，并要确實的把它從撒但的薄子里，轉移到神的賬目中。怎樣做呢？不要只將錢發出去，而要將你自己和它一同帶到神面前。

“ ..... but she,  out of her own poverty, put in everything --- all she had to live on.”                 (Mark 12:44 NIV)

Today we will talk about “clean money” and “dirty money”,  but they are all called “unrighteous mammon,” in God’s eyes.  Just ask yourself whether money leads you closer to God, or draws away from God.  You can prove which is the truth or not, of what the saying "the mammon of unrighteousness."  Of which you can serve God or mammon. How can we turn this money that serves Satan’s interests into the use of building the kingdom of God? What exactly do we need to sever the connection between Caesar and the money bearing his image?

If your money wants to come out of the world, you, youself must first come out of the world. Just donating money to God's treasury does not change the nature of the money which you offer.  Unless your life is sacrificed along with your money, your money cannot be released from the kingdom of Satan into the kingdom of God. Paul said this document to the believers in Macedonia: "They must give themselves first to the Lord." (2 Corinthians 8:5) Today, when talk  it comes to money, Satan's resources seem to be unlimited, but in the hands of God, what is effective is Cash, however, is limited because only a small amount is dedicated to the Lord. May you immediately turn every dollar you earn into currency that circulates in the sanctuary, and reliably transfer it from Satan's thin bank account to God's account. How? Don't just give the money away, but bring yourself with it to God.
