Summary/Abstract: The subject of the analyses presented in the article is the problem of how Biblical texts answer the question about a man's attitude towards winning, accumulating and using riches. Starting from (1) the Old Testament vision, through (2) the meaning of Christ's utterances that are contained in the Gospel, and ending with the message in the Acts and the Epistles, the author presents the biblical assumptions of moral attitudes towards material goods. The discussion is concluded with (3) an attempt to indicate ethical implications resulting from the Holy Scriptures' attitude towards worldly goods.
