Salvation is not for sale. There is no amount of money you can give that can save you.You cannot buy the indwelling of God spirit that comes in and changes a lost soul into a child of God.Jesus paid the cost when He shed His blood on Calvary. Through His death and His alone we can receive the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Here Simon who once deceived the people that he was someone great, and the people from the greatest to the least though he was one great from God. God's word is the power of God unto salvation it can change a sinner into a saint.There are many today who go about deceiving the people. They go about selling the power of God's word in the form of prayer cloth, miracle oils, water, and yes even in the seeds of faith, as the people believe them to be someone great from God. After he was baptized,Simon continued with Phillip and beheld the miracles and signs that were done.When Simon saw that when Peter and John laid hands on the people they received the Holy spirit, he offered them money to have that same power.
We don't have to pay money to receive the power of the Holy Spirit,we only need to believe.When you accept Christ as your personal savior, and surrender your life to Him, you have all the power He has, for the life you now live in the flesh you live by faith of the Son of God. See it's not I, but Christ that lives in me. He rose with all power,so I, in faith have access to this same power,if I only believe. It is not for sale but you can obtain it, its a free gift to all who believes.
