Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry. Colossians 3:5
Normally when we hear about idolatry, we think of worship of a form or figure that represents our god. In fact, anything we have a single minded love and devotion for, can become an idol for us. Anything that comes between God and us, is an idol. Greed can be directed to things, or toward immoral living. When they consume us, when they become our god, it becomes idolatry. Let's be aware and flee from it.
