I would turn down the money, no matter how badly I could use it. There is nothing that I will allow to come between God and me.
Some will say they will lie, and then ask forgiveness. They have a wrong view of grace, premeditated grace is not grace at all it is a false teaching and nothing more. If you sin thinking o well God will forgive me so it is OK, there is no forgiveness offered.

Yes, I'd take "the hit" on my soul to be able to do some real good for the world before I died. As is I can barely give a small percentage of my income to local food banks. With $100 billion I could save hundreds of thousands of lives. I wouldn't keep any for myself though, that'd be just wrong.

I would lie for any monetary amount larger than fifty cents, especially were the lie to be harmless and I hungry. I am an atheist, and so reject such "morality" to be completely useless, and I am an American, though not necessarily proud of that.

Matthew 16:26
What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

No, I wouldn't...I researched people who came into large sums of money not too long ago....universally they were miserable, hounded by charities, families, friends...until they donated the majority of it away.
