The things of this life form one of the greatest dangers which beset a Christian's path. The money, the pleasures, the daily business of the world these are so many traps to catch souls.
Scandalous and loathsome sins are not the only thing that damn souls!
Thousands of things, which in themselves are innocent when followed to excess, become idols, and are little better than soul-poisons and helps to Hell!
In the midst of our families, and in the pursuit of our lawful callings we have need to be on our guard. Unless we watch and pray, these temporal things may rob us of Heaven and choke out every sermon we hear.
We may live and die, as thorny ground hearers.
[J.C. Ryle]
Luke 8:14 ... And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
