Right at the end of First Timothy, Paul gives a special list of ways for the rich people to act.  Knowing there are challenges involved in the pride and greed that can creep in with great wealth, the rich are told to

–          Not be haughty

–          Not to set their hope on the uncertainty of riches

–          Do set their hope on God, who richly provides

–          Do good

–          Be rich in good works

–          Be generous

–          Be ready to share

The goal is to use their wealth to “store up treasures for themselves as a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.”
