Two Masters

A local museum got caught up in being promoted as a place for paranormal activity. While they are receiving worldwide PR, they now feel the label may detract from their stated mission of history and education. The ghost branding may well stick simply because there are a couple of people in the administration who, by all appearances, believe in the paranormal. I suspect the museum will try to find a way to straddle the line, which is a similar tactic we see in liberal churches, as well as in individual believers. For instance, those who stand on the Bible yet practice astrology and rely on their horoscope. Jesus said, “No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money” (Matt 6:24 NIV).
