Is Materialism a Sin?

Honestly said:
If our focus is on the things of God, then our talents, wealth, position, and material possesions become a stewardship to be used for good purposes. In the absense of sefishness and pride (striving to lift ourselves above others), we are accountable to God for how we use them. God blessed many notible persons with wealth. Think of Abraham.

You are 100% correct, but I don't believe that any of the depositions that you described, can be classified as materialism. Materialism is giving a precedence to physical objects, over all other things.
