The Bible provides many examples of both effective and ineffective financial planning in the face of economic adversity. Examples of good financial planning include the servants who wisely invested their master's money (Luke 19:13-19) and the Corinthian believers who laid aside money to help others (1 Cor. 27:23-27). Poor financial planning can be seen in the man who built bigger barns without thought of his impending death (Luke 12:16-21), the man who started to build a tower without money to complete it (Luke 14:28-30), and the servant who refused to invest his master's money (Luke 19:20-21). The Bible also recognizes that having sound plans helps ensure a successful venture (2 Cor. 9:5). Because God blesses those who give to others (2 Corinthians 9:6-12), the willingness to give generously (Matt. 25:31-46; 2 Cor. 8:3), and without thought of return (Matthew 5:42; Luke 6:34; Romans 11:35), is considered a mark of financial responsibility. Other marks of financial responsibility include careful financial planning, hard work (Eph. 4:28; 2 Thess. 3:10), and providing for one's family (1 Timothy 5:8). Jesus' stewardship parables speak of financial responsibility as a precursor of greater areas of responsibility in the kingdom of God (Matt. 25:14-30; Luke 16:1-13, 19:11-27).

Is the New Testament just for Christians?
The New Testament is the second major division of the Christian Bible with 27 separate works (called books) attributed to at least eight different writers. Four accounts of Jesus' life are at the core. A history of selected events in the early church (Acts) is followed by twenty letters to churches and individuals and one apocalypse. The letters deal mainly with the interpretation of God's acts of salvation in Jesus Christ. Matters of discipline, proper Christian behavior, and church polity also are included.
