Deceitful Riches 10 Min. Teaching

Hello and welcome to another video! Today in this video we are talking about the things of the world. Riches and Lusts. The topic Scripture is out of the book of Ephesians and it tells us that the old man (sinful man) grows corrupt by the deceitful lusts. What does it mean that these lusts are deceitful? The Bible also says similar things about riches and how they often take the place of God in people's lives! Today we are talking about how these Lusts and Riches trick us into thinking we can be satisfied in them alone! But the truth is they will leave us empty, and apart from God if we trust in them. “if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” Ephesians 4:21-24 “Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.” Matt. 13:22 “And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Mark 10:24-25 “Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.” Revelation 3:17-18 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3 I hope you enjoyed today's video! LIKE COMMENT SUBSCRIBE
