 IF YOU HAVE MONEY, and you can not let go of your hand to give or help to the poor or needy(that is including especially poor siblings, relatives, renters,employees, etc) that is LOVING MONEY more than GOD. 

If you are mocking the poor or needy then you love money more than God. HOW CAN YOU SAY, YOU LOVE GOD(that you cannot see), & NOT LOVE people(that you obviously see).....This is hypocrisy......

If you have MONEY, and does NOT give your tithes & offerings to your CHURCH so it can help REACHING the UNSAVED, & EXPAND the KINGDOM of GOD, then you LOVE MONEY more than GOD. If you have really faith, you will believe that AS YOU GIVE, IT WILL BE GIVEN BACK TO YOU multiple times back. Anything you put above God is idolatry. Idolatry can be your job, spouse, children, business, perfume, hobbies, pets, sins, addictions, etc. If God tells you to give up some things, and you refuse, that is sin of IDOLATRY....
