 | Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions." |
 | And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. |
In these verses, Jesus is addressing two brothers fighting over their inheritance. He gives them a strong warning about thinking that their possessions can give their life worth and ultimate value.
Greed grips are hearts when we place material things (or anything) in the place of God and his ultimate approval and blessings in our life. We have been given the very best God has to offer in the form of his Son!
