Greed makes us sin by desiring, taking, and having what does not belong to us; God judges greed, discontentment and theft. (v.1-2) 2. Greed makes us boast and trust in the wrong treasures. (v.3-5) 3. After God disciplines our greed, He graciously restores us to trusting Him and desiring His covenant fortunes! (v.6) Why is greed so damaging? Where does corruption come from? Gal. 6:8 How linked is our treasure to our hearts? Mt. 6:19-21,24 Who must not be greedy? 1 Tim. 3:8
