Did the Bible really say that money can do all things?

I read a post on TikTok claiming, “the Bible even say money do all things.” But that is not true. This is a clear misquotation and misinterpretation of Solomon’s proverb in Ecclesiastes 10:19 (KJV), which says:
"A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things."

At face value, this statement can sound absolute. However, Solomon was not teaching that money has unlimited power. To understand his meaning more clearly, it helps to compare other translations. For example, the Easy English Version puts it this way:
“People enjoy eating, and wine makes life happier. But money solves a lot of problems.”

This wording makes the intent clearer. Solomon was speaking from a practical, earthly perspective—acknowledging that money is useful for handling many everyday needs and responsibilities. He was not saying that money can replace God, give life, save the soul, or solve every problem.

In fact, the Bible consistently teaches that money has limits and must never become an object of trust or worship. Scripture recognizes the usefulness of money, but it never presents it as all-powerful. Only God is all-powerful, and He is fully made known through faith in Jesus Christ. Therefore, if you have faith in Jesus, you have access to the One who is unlimited in power and able to work through you to accomplish things far beyond what money can do..
