The Price Of An Evangelical Christian Soul
They
say that every man has his price; present him with an attractive enough
offer and he will part with even that which he treasures most.All convictions become negotiable, every virtue is eventually up for sale. And
so despite all their preaching about morality and all their posturing
about holiness and all their sermonizing about the wickedness of the
world up until that point, they willingly signed themselves over to the
wild-haired, foul-mouthed, money-loving, p*ssy-grabbing Devil with the
orange face:
With all
their well-rehearsed, sanctimonious Scripture lip service about
receiving salvation, this proved to be largely ceremonial.They may have onceinvited Jesus into their hearts, but when the rubber met the narrow road they evicted him and took the cash. ----source
