Many people's today claim to follow our Lord, but the truth is that people's follow the wealthy lifestyle, or the mammon, like the Bible says it.

Which one you are, the follower of the Christ, or the follower of mammon?

You can not serve two master.

Gong out on a limb, or maybe on a jet wing, but is Christ the answer?

But if you still love mammon, you follow only your own desires, and not the Lord.

And that is the question.

That's not a question. You made a statement.

Kinda runs the same gambit as which do you want to kill in your heart Christ or tammuz. God the Father or Baal. So will carnal man made worshiping and idols continue to exist if man discontinues to worship God? Highly doubtful.
But we were given a promise that death will come to the wicked ways of man. And the meek will inherit the earth. I am guessing that is why it will be called a second earth. Still the same physically but spiritually made new.
AAh but what do I know I am Christian and biased to hope.

People are quick to point out others supposedly faults and missteps.

And it's usually through that of non-constructive criticism.
By the way, Wildflower is a good place to have lunch in Arizona.
