Money or Faith: Mark 4:25

Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them." MARK 4:25 When I first encountered this scripture in 1975, I asked my former pastor, Rev. Christopher Columbus Butler, of St. Matthews C.M.E. Church, near St. Louis, Missouri, whether this referred to money? He said, "No. Faith." I remain unpersuaded by his explanation, preferring my own intuition.
