Covetousness: One of Those Respectable Sins - Tim Conway
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 янв 2020
- Covetousness is a heinous, horrible, damnable sin that will lead to everlasting punishment and unspeakable torment for those who practice it. And isn't it fearful how few people seem to even realize how wicked this sin is? May God help and keep us from being deceived by covetousness.

I love this message, covetousness is deadly and subtle , it doesn't discriminate whether you are rich,poor, black, white,green,purple.... Lord help us😌😌, I am going through this in my life and this is a great reminder
Its true, God can make you happy with nothing but himself.
I do not believe you. It is easy to make such a claim online. I have lived it, no money, no home, no floor beneath your feet to call your own. No source of income, no food. God met my needs. I challenge you to go to any African nation or India or Indonesia or Thailand, sell all that you have and meet the needs of other Christians in greater need than yourself. See that acceptance and contentedness is a way of life for those brothers and sisters who have nothing. It is an easy thing to say when you have everything. Few Americans get this level of contentedness. You claim it? Then prove it or stop making a claim you do not trurly understand.
@@StoicObserverS To be fair to the brother above you, He did not claim that he has obtained or lived that, but that it is true. Paul the apostle himself said he had learned to be content in whatever state. The only issue I could potentially see with his post, is his use of the word "happy". I'll give him the benifit of the doubt that he wasn't trying to be very concise in his meaning.
You also may want to consider your own heart and motive for why you felt the need to come out so harshly. If you have lived it, praise God for your sacrifice. And if you wish to tell a brother to contemplate more deeply the words he is saying, do so with love and grace.
1 Corinthians 13:3
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing.
@@StoicObserverS ,
Why you are in such destitute? Curses in your life? Maybe you need to find out why God's people with such life conditions. God's Word never fails. Contentment is much gain He said.
It’s not about being happy it’s about being holy!
If you are a Christian, pray for me please... I am not sure where I am going... I am unsure of my salvation.. My name is Siddharth.
Vanilla Warrior are you sure now?
@@jimb3093 I keep going back and forth between assurance and doubt, and it's been seven months since I put my trust in Christ. I don't know what to make of it.
Vanilla Warrior are you having doubts that God is real and the Bible is truth? Or you believe in Christ and just unsure if you are saved? I had doubts for years if the Bible was real or not but I no longer doubt. I’ve repented and believe. I would think as long as you have repented, believe in Christ and have put your faith and trust in Him and strive to live Godly you are the right track. There are other RUclips videos that that outline if your a Christian or not. I believe brother Tim has one. Stay at it and don’t give up. Stay in Gods word and let the Lord speak to you. It’s not an easy path following Christ but the best path. Continuing being a warrior and not a worrier. 🙂
@@jimb3093 I doubt my own repentance and faith not the bible. I am looking to Christ and finding my hope in him but I keep falling into doubting my salvation...
@@vanillawarrior I understand, keep praying, keep looking to Christ and stay in the word.
I like to thank the Lord for this message because it brings home the fact that nothing actually satisfied completely but the Lord Jesus Christ
Wow. Thanks for this great lesson.
Makes me think of Philippians 3:8 "What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ
" or also Luke 3:14 "Soldiers also asked him, "And we, what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do not extort money from anyone by threats or by false accusation, and be content with your wages."
One of the best sermons I have ever heard by my all time favorite pastors . Brother Tim is blessed with a brilliant mind and the ability to communicate like none other!
Thank you Pastor Tim listening to this message today seeking the Lord to live a life completely surrender to Him. If anyone reading this please pray for me that I would lay aside those things that I covet may I put aside . Vanity, pride, all that I put before my Lord and my God I truly want to surrender and live a life pleasing to him
This is SO GOOD, praise God!!! I must confess to and I immediately repent of coveting any and all chemical substance (drugs/herbs/supplements/prescription medicine/etc) to fill the void in me that ONLY YESHUA JESUS CHRIST can fill. Thank you for pastor tim for being a willing vessel. I needed to hear this more than you know.
There's something the Lord is doing right now in my life, He's using your message. Thanks for this piece. And the Lord shall completely heal your wife. Amen.
It is amazing how God leads us to what we need. This is a good lesson for me as well. I really needed to hear this. I never thought of myself as coveting. This makes me realize this must be a big part of what I needed God to reveal in my heart. I'm going to apply coveting to everything I look at and turn my eyes away. Each time I say, "I want," I realize that I must ask myself, "why?" Why do I want that?
Yes, our learning is continuous. There are some sins that we are not even conscious of. Which is why when I ask for forgiveness, I ask for sins committed knowingly and unknowingly. This kind of teaching sheds light on this aspect of the Christian Life.
I thank my God for you on RUclips. God bless you and your family
Thank you for being so vulnerable by sharing such a personal part of your life in this message, loved the message !
At the cross all of my past is Covered by God's Grace
Grace abound, sin abound? God forbid.
Hope in Christ! results in spiritual growth and bears fruits of peace,joy & love.
God safeguards us from ending up in disappointment.
Piercing my heart
Thank you Jesus ❤🙏
Thank you for this
Lord give me the grace to lay down my life again.... you are enough Lord
I must be listening to too much Pastor Tim.
Because I had a dream I was sitting down at one of his teachings and he was serving us Coffee & Chips.
Hahahaha!
Love Tim! AND EXCELLENT TEACHING!
Amen Tim. Sin is sin, and it needs to be delt with. We need to be constantly seeking the face of The Lord. God bless you all.
love you Pastor thanks for helping me renew my mind
33:08 Wow. Thank you for sharing this Pastor Tim, that story greatly resonates with me. 🙌🙌
The Spirit and the Bride say Come Lord!
Buy the Truth and Sell it NOT!
The Spirit of Truth
The Holy Spirit
The True Riches
Thanks for the uploads the Lord sees fit that I am to partake of the teachings.
Thank You
Thank you for this much needed teaching.
I definitely love this message
Thank-you for this message! God bless you.
very convicting message, praise God
Sweet sermon. Thank you
This is really encouraging. Amen
Very encouraging message
Thank you for being faithful to the Word of God. I am going through several trials right now....most because the consequence of sin. I struggle with contentment and covetouness. God is faithful and compassionate.
So wonderful! Am blessed! Hallelujah! Glory to Jesus!
All praises to Abba Yah! Great testimony my dearest brother. What a moving testimony, very well tied to the subject matter. Thank you for sharing your life experience, Luke 12:13-48, Hebrews 13:5 and Ephesians 5:1-33. Be blessed, all is well with your wife in Yahshuwa's name!
Thanks, Thanks. I have learnt so much from this Minister. I have been reading about envy, covetousness and contentment. Hallelujah to the lamb of God. My favorite passages were quoted: Psalm 23:4, Joshua 1:5. Blessings always to you Pastor, just mentioned another passage of mine:Come unto me all who etc, I will never leave you etc. May the Lord bless you abundantly as you continue to preach His words to the people of the world. Thanks a million times over.
This is scary. No wonder “be there few who find it,” not a sin discussed much.
My name is Sloan please pray that God helps me with my coveting!
Thank you for catering for other bible versions,
What a great message!Another respectable sin not mentioned much from the pulpit is pride.
I'm intrigued
Hey there
Are you a Christian or just visiting?
@@atticuscarr6905 I've been following illbehonest for years, I follow Jesus, and the Bible. :)
I know what's behind that curtain now! Great to meet the saints there in SA
Great!
Nice
St. Basil (c. 379)--"Wretches, how will you justify yourselves before the Heavenly Judge? You say to me 'What is our fault, when we keep what belongs to us?' I ask you, 'How did you get that which you call your property?' How do the possessors become rich if not by taking possession of things that belong to all?"
St. John Chrysostom (c. 407)--"To grow rich without an injustice is impossible. But what if he succeeded to his father's inheritance? Then he receives what had been gained by injustice." (Homilies 1 Tim: Hom: 1-12)
Amen
I want to say, if it is to indulge yourself in some form of pleasure, and not a service to benefit someone else, as far as earthly needs and spiritual needs, it must be covetousness. But I'm not entirely sure I have that correct.
I appreciate the input of others with the mind of the Spirit. Thank you.
This would be better if he actually told us what covetousness was
How about follow how Jesus pray? Did he look up to heaven when praying?
How about "let's be honest" than "I'll be honest"? ☺❤
What about when Jesus says Ask and you shall receive?
What about vacations, trips, sight seeing, etc.?
Mark 6:31 - And Jesus said to them (disciples), "Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while." For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.
The sound still gets loud and then the volume gets low where I’m having to constantly adjust my volume. Thanks

Where can I find an email for brother Tim?
Let's make one thing clear. If a person is SAVED and they covet something, they will not then become un-saved and go to Hell.
DO YOU SIN SOMETIMES OR ALL THE TIME?
Very interesting always viewed covetousness as thievery by legal means
I was always struggling with sexual immorality AND repenting and repeating over n over. It took time, but I became financially successful. Did God bless me because I was doing better? Maybe...then years go by and fell into that same sin, because it is HARD! I kept going and being wise in what I could. But maybe my plans to be out of the rat race were wrong. God doesn't give a spica specific answers about these things. There's nothing wrong with being financially successful and Rich. I didn't care at all about money, I just wanted free time and not have to go to a 40 hour a week job for the rest of my life that I didn't enjoy. Anyway, this is now 5 years later after one event after another caused me to have to get rid of my properties and as I sit in my ghetto house and look around at all my filthy surroundings and having to put up with a lower class of people, looking at blight and all the depressed miserable people around me it feels like God put me in this social hellish experience to punish me because I never got victory over immorality. Now I'm just depressed and have no idea what God's disposition is towards me. Do I just wait for him to throw me into the Lake of Fire? I still want to understand how and why things happened the way they did. I don't know if he took things away because he loves me and saw that it was leading to destruction or if he took it away because he wants me to suffer because he hates me. It's hard to know whether God is chastising a person out of love or if he is punishing them out of hatred.
Sounds like God’s getting your attention! I do hope and pray you are one of His and that this is His disciplining you. It sounds like you may be struggling with assurance. This video was encouraging to me with my assurance: ruclips.net/video/_XacW3FHajM/видео.html
Don’t wait...cry out to God as if your eternal salvation depends on it because it does!
There are many who are going to hell because they are getting everything they ever wanted in this life...God didn’t allow suffering to get their attention. Praise God that He has gotten your attention!
Please tell me where to find the Gospel in one verse
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23 NLT
And check out 1 Corinthians 15:3&4
Rev 14:7 comes to mind....And if you're confused, look at verse 6.Probably not what you expect, but indeed that is the bottom line of the Gospel.
Mat 5;29
Pastor Tim doesn’t address how much can a Christian have?
Could you state the question again as I am not sure what you are getting at?
@@illbehonest - I am referring to wealth, the riches of this world can choke the Word, so how much worldly riches is reasonable for a Christian.
@@The12thSeahorse I think one can have $100k and covetous and another $1000000 and the latter gets vindicated.
It’s about the state of the heart. The Lord didn’t go around saying to everyone, “sell your possessions and give to the poor” the rich young ruler was possessed by his riches and mammon was his god.
You can’t serve god and mammon. It’s not about HOW MUCH it’s about the STATE OF YOUR HEART!
Pastor Tim lay hands on your wife and heal her in Jesus Name with all faith
I'm sure he heals her pretty good, if you know what I mean lol
