A powerful and though provoking short video on the topic of earthly riches. The human lust for financial wealth and material gain is a Luciferian mechanism which is designed to destroy the very souls of men. The more some have, the greedier they get.
Many fools have sold their souls for fortune and fame, but when they are granted their desires, they eventually come to realise that money cannot buy them happiness, even though they can afford anything that they want. We all depart this world in our own appointed time, the rich and poor mans graves are the same dimensions.
We came into this world with nothing and we can take nothing out. Unfortunately the prince of this world has deceived mankind into believing that he must accumulate as much wealth possible, while in reality, the more earthly riches that we possess, the greater our damnation will be on the day of judgement.
Matthew 6:19-21
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Luke 12:15-21
And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses. And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 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.
James 5:1-6
Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
Proverbs 21:6
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
Proverbs 15:16
Better is little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures and trouble therewith.
