4-1-2016 – A Word to the Wise: This is such a serious area that Jesus included the warning in His most famous parable of the prodigal son. One of the first attitudes presented by the son was the ever-present “you owe me.” The prodigal son challenges his father with this “you owe me” attitude along with the demand: “Give me my inheritance.” The son then proceeds to make the mistake typically found with the immoral, the transference of funds into liquid capital. This mistake is rooted in the false assumption that you can buy friendship and loyalty. The prodigal’s funds quickly become exhausted, leading to his financial ruin.
