The Deceitfulness of Riches, Power, and the Lust for Attention

This message continues the discussion on transgression by exploring how lust for money, power, and attention is rooted in the belief that "God is not enough." The speaker connects these desires to idolatry and covetousness, explaining that they lead to an unstable and restless heart. The message uses the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant from Matthew 18, as well as biblical accounts of Peter, to illustrate these spiritual pitfalls. The talk also touches on how people often disguise their discontent with righteous reasons and how the kingdom of God is the opposite of the world's ways.

Key Topics:
- The lie that "God is not enough"
- The connection between lust, idolatry, and covetousness
- The lust for power and attention
- Disguising discontent with righteous reasons
- The contrast between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness
- Biblical examples from Genesis, Matthew, and James

The main takeaway from this message is that the kingdom of heaven is not a man-made organization, but a reliance on God's kingship and a commitment to following His ways.
