There are over 100 verses in the Bible about vanity. Vanity is a sin. Yet there is hardly ever a sermon or Bible study about it.
Vanity is
"Worthlessness, pointlessness, or futility"
American Heritage® Dictionary
Almost everyone spends most of their minds, time, efforts on trivial, unimportant, worthless matters. That is, on vanity. For example, many people get upset over some news and then forget all about it two days later. So many lives are completely wasted on one vain thing after another.
On the other hand, there are just a few verses about homosexuality and profanity. Yet churches and church people are horrified by these two things. Both are evil, but it seems vanity is a bigger concern to God.
Matthew 23:23 KJV
[23] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
