The Bible does speak to marriage and finances. First, it speaks about saving money: (Proverbs 6:6-8 Proverbs 13:11 1 Timothy 5:8) 1 Timothy 5:8 ESV But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Then, lending money: (Psalm 37:21 Psalm 112:5 Proverbs 22:7 Matthew 5:42 Luke 6:35) Proverbs 22:7 ESV The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender. And finally stewarding money: (Deuteronomy 8:18 Psalm 24:1 Luke 16:10-11 1 Corinthians 4:2) Luke 16:11 ESV If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches?
