Today, we continue this section that goes from 6:5b-10 which is addressing the subject of "Profiteering Preachers."

We are still working with the proposition that we need to think rightly about false teachers.

We have already seen

1) The Character of the Content of the false teaching in 6:3

2) The character of the false teacher in vv. 4-5a

Now, we are looking at 3) The Motivation of the false teacher in vv. 5b-10

First, we saw a) They make a false connection between godliness and financial gain in v. 5b.

Then, we saw b) True godliness does equal gain and contentment, but not the kind that false teachers and their disciples crave in vv. 6-8

Lastly, we note that c) The desire for riches is a snare to many false teachers in vv. 9-10
