The Three Loves That Destroy Us—and How to Overcome Them
Many people are unknowingly harmed by three deadly attachments: the love of money, the love of food and drink, and the love of pleasure, pride and selfishness. Throughout scripture we see the consequences of these passions. Adam and Eve fell because of food. Esau forfeited his birthright for a meal. Judas betrayed his Lord for silver. Jesus warned in Luke 12:15–21 that true life isn’t found in earthly wealth. Storing up treasures for ourselves without being rich toward God leads only to loss. The only lasting remedy is the love of God. Turning our hearts toward Him frees us from these destructive desires.
