Covetousness – Group 1 – Violation of the Tenth Commandment
1. Covetousness proceeds from the heart
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness (Mark 7:21-22).
2. Beware of covetousness
Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth (Luke 12:15).
3. Judgment on the covetous
But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God (Luke 12:20-21).
4. Avoid coveting raiment and food
Therefore I say unto you, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment (Luke 12:22-23).
5. Avoid covetousness of the gentiles
And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things (Luke 12:29-30).
6. Coveting of riches and material things choke the word
And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the work, and it becometh unfruitful (Mark 4:19).
7. Things coveted by natural man are an abomination to God
Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is hightly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God (Luke 16:15).
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all (I Timothy 4:15).
