As I said in the introduction to this series, we are going to take seven weeks to look at how America has angered God. If you aren’t Catholic you may not know what I am talking about. The seven deadly sins are the seven sins that can get you a ticket straight to hell. No passing go and no use for $200 in hell. You certainly won’t be getting a get-out-of-hell free pass. We will also look at how the Ten Commandments come into play.
Seven Deadly Sins
2. Greed.
We are seeing this sin from every corner of the world. Rather it's America begging Saudi Arabia to produce more oil till Mid-term selections are over or President Zelensky demanding more money and arms. When a nation refuses, the politicians act like spoiled brats having a temper tantrum.
Money has become the center of everything we do. It's what motivates people to do some of the most disgusting things like continuous war.
Ten Commandments
2. You shall make no idols.
10. You shall not Covet.
Money and possessions have become idols and what people chase to no end.
Seven Virtues
Charity
Christ was charitable. He called for us to be charitable with our money and time.
Here's a challenge, give to a charity and don't say anything. Seriously! Do this because you have something in your home you're not using and would be a blessing to someone else. Don't get a receipt for tax deductions. Just do it because Christ would do this.
