Luke 16:10

8 The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.

9 I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings.

Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.

11 So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?

12 And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?
