An excerpt from “Access Jesus.com” entitled, “A Christian Definition Of Greed” states: “The Bible provides us with a rich definition of greed. From a Christian perspective, the core definition of greed is that it is the obsession with accumulating material goods. A greedy person values material goods more than they value God. The Bible also tells us that greed is something that can never be satisfied.” The article may be viewed at: http://access-jesus.com/definition-of-greed-html [Reflection is based on the Bible Reference – Ephesians 5:3]
Application: “Live a life of love, says the Christian faith, and almost everyone in the world nods their heads in agreement – “If only more people would live a life of love there would be happier marriages, emptier prisons, more peaceful schools, less warfare and far fewer people feeling a need of drugs.” Everyone tells us that the great need is to live lives of love.
