Those who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and many senseless and hurtful desires, which plunge men into destruction and ruin.—1 Tim. 6:9.There is real danger if we lose sight of our true purpose and loosen our hold on “the real life.” (1 Tim. 6:19) We risk “being carried away by anxieties and riches and pleasures of this life.” (Luke 8:14) Uncontrolled desires and “anxieties over livelihood” can lead to excessive involvement in this system of things. (Luke 21:34, ftn.) Tragically, some have become caught up in today’s frenzied economy and have been “led astray from the faith and have stabbed themselves all over with many pains,” even losing their precious relationship with Jehovah. What a price to pay for not keeping “a firm hold on the everlasting life”! (1 Tim. 6:10, 12; Prov. 28:20) Paul advised “those making use of the world [to be] as those not using it to the full.”—1 Cor. 7:31. w07 10/1 1:14, 15

Because sentence against a bad work has not been executed speedily, that is why the heart of the sons of men has become fully set in them to do bad.—Eccl. 8:11
.Children need to know not only the family rules but also the penalties for breaking those rules. Once the penalties have been discussed and are understood, the rules need to be enforced. Parents are not being kind if they constantly warn their children about a deserved punishment but fail to carry it out. True, a parent may refrain from punishing a child in public or around the child’s peers, thus saving the young one some embarrassment. But children feel more secure and develop more respect and love for their parents when they know that their parents’ “Yes” means yes and their “No” means no—even if that entails punishment. (Matt. 5:37) Of course, if it is to be kind, the punishment and the way it is administered need to be tailored to the child. w07 9/1 1:12, 13
