Fruit that proves your repentance. Luke 3.

Pink Floyd:
Money, get away.
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay.
Money, its a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
...
Money, get back.
I'm all right jack keep your hands off of my stack.
...
Money, its a crime.
Share it fairly but dont take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise its no surprise that they're
Giving none away. (lyric excerpt from Money on album, Dark Side of the Moon)
John the Baptist:
So the crowds were asking him, “What then should we do?” John answered them, “The person who has two tunics must share with the person who has none, and the person who has food must do likewise.” Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, “Teacher, what should we do?” He told them, “Collect no more than you are required to.” Then some soldiers also asked him, “And as for us – what should we do?” He told them, “Take money from no one by violence or by false accusation, and be content with your pay.” (Luke 3:10-14 NET)

Heh. I refrained from using the lyrics to Lionel Richie's "All Night Long" for the post on Luke 5. Barely.

"Were going to party
Karamu, fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along!"
