How do we know worldliness is dangerous for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Worldliness is a significant threat to the soul, diverting attention from eternal treasures to earthly concerns.

The danger of worldliness is underscored in Christ's teachings, highlighting its deceptive and alluring nature. It lures believers into a false sense of security as they focus on temporal pleasures and neglect the weightier matters of eternity. Many professing Christians today are accumulating treasures on earth, causing their hearts to align with worldly values rather than setting their affections on things above. The peril lies in being consumed by earthly pursuits, which can lead to spiritual shipwreck and ultimately eternal separation from God. A heart devoted to earthly treasures cannot remain steadfast in faith and must seek to lay up treasures in heaven instead.
