AMERICAN GREED Luke 12:13-21

Luke 11:39 Then the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but your inward part is full of greed and wickedness.

Luke 12:13 Then one from the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”

Luke 12:14 But He said to him, “Man, who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”

Luke 12:15 And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.”

Luke 12:16 Then He spoke a parable to them, saying: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded plentifully.

Luke 12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?’

Luke 12:18 So he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build greater, and there I will store all my crops and my goods.

Luke 12:19 And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry.”

Luke 12:20 But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?’

Luke 12:21 “So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”

Greed is an EXPRESSION of our sinful human nature.

Greed leads to OTHER serious sins.

Greed is a “ME FIRST” attitude.

Greed is never SATISFIED.

Greed is always willing to do WRONG.

Greed doesn’t CARE who it hurts.

Greed can have ETERNAL consequences.

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
