When Simon encounters the power of God, he is amazed but seeks to buy the Holy Spirit with money. Like us, he needs to understand that salvation can only ever be received as a gift.
Perhaps our question is similar: what is the fee/buy-in/dues for this “club” and what is the least we can get away with?
