What does the Bible say about serving God and mammon?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that one cannot serve both God and wealth, as exemplified in Matthew 6:24.

In Matthew 6:24, Jesus makes it clear that no one can serve two masters; they will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. This principle speaks to the impossibility of being divided in our allegiance, particularly between God and material wealth. The character Mr. By-ends embodies the struggle of wanting to serve God while still clinging to worldly gain and comforts, exhibiting a mind that is more preoccupied with earthly prosperity than with true religious fervor.
