Fame, money, and power- these are the things that this world considers true success. But God warned us about this fame thing when Jesus said “What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:26. This is a great reminder for all of us, not just for the unbelievers but also for the Christians. A lot of famous people out there sold their souls in exchange for their high status, worldwide popularity, money and a very strong influence. But what for? To enjoy all those things for such a short period of time? Nah! The Bible reminds us that this world is not our permanent home and will soon be destroyed by fire.
This song of Toby Mac and Kirk Franklin is a true testimony of people in the limelight who choose eternal life rather than momentary pleasure. I like the message of this song so much and that hip-hop beat as well. I listen to it and contemplate on the message but still, I can manage to dance with the tune as if I am chilling out.
