Luke 11:39. Another key aspect of the definition of greed is that it is deceptive. Greedy people are scammers. They will deceive others so that they can take from people what is not theirs (Matthews 7:15, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.").

Proverbs 30:9. You can define delusions as ignoring truth or unknowingly living out a lie. Many people do this when following a purpose in their lives that is contrary to God. From a Christian perspective, the real truth is that we are here for God’s purpose and that He will provide for our needs. By us getting caught up in the cares of this world, both the rich and the poor among us replace God’s truth with a lie. The rich get deluded into thinking that they can provide for themselves, and they soon forget God.

Joshua 7:11. Accepting personal responsibility for our actions is a big thing to God. This was shown to Israel when they started to conquer the Promise Land. When Achan had taken the accursed things at Jericho, God was very angry at Israel. He was angry because Israel had not acknowledge their sin (Achan's sin), and they had not accepted personal responsibility for their sin.
