We must not be greedy like Simon! Greed will put our lives into an unholy mess. We must avoid greed. We can pray and repent of greed if we are Biblical Believers. When the Church allows greed to be a part of its life, that Church will surely fail. We should pray for a life free from greed, looking to the Lord Jesus Christ as our example.
