Robbing him of all he owned and loved. And now the evil being owned the man's soul. I called him and he did not answer. He had the same misgivings you had about the gold covered box, but he simply ignored them. He received what he chose.

On the outside, being a Christian may not look like such a grand and happy lifestyle, but it truly is. When you have a good relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, you have such a wonderful peace and joy that no earthly or demonic thing can duplicate. Jesus is truly all you need. The two boxes represent the two different roads you can choose of in your life. The heavily decorated gold, yet selfish and un-compassionate box represents the life of the evil.
