Motivation (1 Nephi 13)

After Nephi saw the vision that his father saw, he also was shown things that were to come. Nephi saw many things, but one of the things he saw was a great church that did all kinds of evil deeds. This church killed tortured, lied to, and enslaved those who would follow Christ. Nephi was told by an angel,

"Behold the gold, and the silver, and the silks, and the scarlets, and the fine-twined linen, and the precious clothing, and the harlots, are the desires of this great and abominable church.
"And also for the praise of the world do they destroy the saints of God, and bring them down to captivity."

All these evils came due to the love of riches and worldly fame. These are two of the tools the devil uses to convince us to do his will. How much do these two tools influence you? Can money or peer-pressure convince you to do things you would not otherwise do? Are you motivated by good or by evil influences?
