Yesterday we looked at the deceitfulness of riches. Before moving to discuss “the lusts for other things” tomorrow, I just want to make 3 simple points about the deceitfulness of riches:
1. You listen to those things you spend the most time with. If you listen to money more than you listen to God, you are spending more time with money than God.
2. You listen to those things you hold precious. If you listen to money more than you listen to God, you hold money more precious than God.
3. You listen to those things that you consider more intelligent. If you listen to money more than you listen to God, you think money is more intelligent than God.
Blessings,
Ben
