What shall we say then? is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. Romans 7:7 Knowing who and what you are is very important. Some of us will spend a life time and die and never know who we were. We are made in the image and likeness of GOD. But there's one difference our spirit's are contaminated with the nature of satan which is SELFISHNESS. One of the main by products of selfishness is to COVET. Covetousness - a strong desire after the possession of worldly things (Col. 3:5; Eph. 5:5; Heb. 13:5; 1 Tim. 6:9, 10; Matt. 6:20). It assumes sometimes the more aggravated form of avarice, which is the mark of cold-hearted worldliness.
