In the epistles, corruption is often linked to which of the following vices?

  1. Generosity and benevolence
  2. Austerity and frugality
  3. Greed and selfishness ✓
  4. Tolerance and acceptance
Explanation

The epistles link corruption to greed and selfishness. Paul says the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10). People who want gain at any cost take bribes and cheat others.

Generosity and tolerance are good qualities and do not cause corruption.
