Although you don't HAVE to live on as few things as possible, you may CHOOSE to, depending on your "bigger picture" goals. If you'll be saving for a house down the road, for example, when you purchase new things when the old is fine, its a good idea to ask yourself if you really need the new thing now. Not because its wrong to get the things, but because it slows you down reaching other goals.

Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
