The devils are scrambling for his soul!

(Thomas Watson, "The Mischief of Sin")

"Covetousness, which is idolatry." Colossians 3:5

Covetousness is the cancer of the soul.

Covetousness is a key which opens the door to further
wickedness. 1 Timothy 6:10, "For the love of money is
at the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving
money, have wandered from the faith and pierced
themselves with many sorrows!"

And what is one the better for all his wealth—at death?
1 Timothy 6:10, "We brought nothing into the world—and
it is certain that we can carry nothing out." When the rich
miser dies—what scrambling is there!
 
His friends are scrambling for his money!
 
The worms are scrambling for his body!

The devils are scrambling for his soul!
