I am a false prophet and God is a superstition.

Name your price.

What’s your salvation worth? Wait, how about your soul? At what price would you choose to stop following Christ and start following someone or something else? (Because trust me, we are all following someone or something; and by following I mean worshipping.)

Don’t believe me? Take a look around.

What does your neighbor worship? I’m being serious, stop and think about it.

Now, hopefully most of us do not have neighbors with idols in their backyards where they make sacrifices on an altar; but how often are they outside washing and polishing that ‘67 Super Snake in the driveway? (Speaking of which, that has to be my ultimate car. Ahem, sorry for drooling on your screen…)

Or maybe they have the “perfect” yard? (You know, the one that makes you not want to do anything to yours; just so you’ll have an excuse.)

Perhaps they have a sixty foot Raiders’ flag flying proudly (ok, let’s be serious because you and I know there are no Raiders fans left out there who are brave enough to show it). All it will take is about a ten minute conversation with them to find out what they are worshipping (or an quick look at their browser history).

You want to get real serious? I’ll tell you what I worship. Success. Yeah, I just admitted it and I know what you’re thinking, “But wait, you’re a Christian?”

Yes, I am.

I believe Jehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the one true God–”I am that I am”. Furthermore I believe that Jesus, the son of Joseph and Mary of Nazareth, was and is the Messiah (Christ). He was born in Bethlehem and gave His life as a sacrifice for all mankind’s sins; yet was raised by His father (whom I now call Abba Father) from the grave and I am awaiting His return.

However, I am also human; and so are you. I am far from perfect and fail every day. I ask for God’s forgiveness every day. My mind and body are at odds with my spirit and soul. We wage war daily concerning whom we will serve, and what we will worship.

Jehovah or Success

Am I saying you cannot have both? No. But in a way you cannot. You see, as a Christian all success is His–but I digress.

Ok, what was this post about again? Oh yeah, what would it take to get you to make this statement?

It only took a hundred thousand dollars (plus five in interest) for him…
