1 Corinthians 10 : 23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. 24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth.

The liberty the Christian has must not be used to do anything that might provoke God but must be used in such a way to build God up. We should never use the privilege the Lord has afforded us for self-edification instead  all things should be done decently and in order. Next we see that greed is one of the main cause of sin when we know God promised to take care of all our needs, but he did not promise to take care of our greed. If we spend our time to help someone in need we will be blessed by God. To use another scripture,  in Philippians 2:3 it says, “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. These two verses help show how edification is better than gratification and how you should put others above our selves.
