Luke 16:11 Context
9And I say vnto you, Make to your selues friends of the Mammon of vnrighteousnesse, that when ye faile, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations. 10Hee that is faithfull in that which is least, is faithfull also in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much. 11If therefore yee haue not bene faithfull in the vnrighteous Mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12And if ye haue not bene faithful in that which is another mans, who shall giue you that which is your owne? 13¶ No seruant can serue two masters, for either he will hate the one, and loue the other: or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other: yee cannot serue God and Mammon.
