How to be Rich

Yesterday I posed the question how do we become rich toward God?  While I am still formulating my answer to that question, let me tell you what I am doing to get there.  I looked up all of the passages in the New Testament that had the word rich in them, well specifically the word that is translated rich in Luke 12:21.  That list is here.  Not all of the verses really spoke to my question, I highlighted the ones that do:

• Luke 12:21
• Romans 10:12
• 2 Corinthians 8:9
• 1 Timothy 6:18
• Revelation 3:18

I then went through each of those verses looking at what they said it would take to be rich.  Before I tell you what I saw, what do you see?
