- In the writings from the Church fathers, Hermas' Vision #3 14:6 "And I answered and said unto her, 'When then, lady, will they be useful for the building?' 'When,' she replied, 'their wealth, which leadeth their souls astray, shall be cut away, then will they be useful for God. For just as the round stone, unless it be cut away, and lose some portion of itself, cannot become square, so also they that are rich in this world, unless their riches be cut away, cannot become useful to the Lord.'" Please explain to me what he means by "unless their riches be cut away". What is wrong with being rich?
- What is the meaning of "But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation"(Luke 6:24)?
