Enslaved cosumers - as I drove home from our Christmas morning service I was thinking how the stores just closed down last evening. They will be open at 8am tomorrow and everyone will be busting down the doors for those great deals they just might miss, for those things none of them needs, after all they just got a truckload of stuff this morning. Society is enslaved and and we don't even know it. Wealthy people think they have it made but if they were to have to live a "normal" middle class life they wouldn't know how to buy socks. And yet we keep pursuing more. I was sad for them. All I could think of was "it was for freedom that Christ has set us free". Oh, to share the liberation with them but they don't even know they need it.
