The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Delight in the Law?: The Law must be used in evangelism to tell the lost why they are lost and why they are on the Road to Death. Only the Law will bring light to one's sins to that sin will been seen as exceedingly sinful in the eyes of the lost. The lost is like a blind man who has no idea where it is going but walks anyway because he thinks he is going to a nicer place, when he is not: he is steps closer towards walking off a cliff and plunging to his death.
Both the unsaved and saved can be under the spirit of mammon. Do not be deceived! An unsaved person can only serve mammon because it is not part of his nature to submit to God in any way (Romans 8:7). However, the Christian can most definitely yield to the temptations of mammon just as he can yield to the temptations of satan. This is what is means for a Christian to be under the spirit of mammon. The signs of a person being under the spirit of mammon are: The person does not understand the spirit of mammon. This is because he or she is blinded by it and therefore cannot see it. The person reacts whenever being confronted with being told that they are under the spirit of mammon, or being told that they may be under it. This is not the person themselves reacting, but the spirit of mammon reacting. The person is self-satisfied with the abundance that they have. This is especially the case with many Christians today. They are happy with having a family, a well-paying job, security
