Michael Jackson and the likes

How have people like Michael Jackson, who was once a Jehovah’s Witness (it’s how he was reared), really profited? He gave up his religious teachings for worldly desires. 1 Timothy 6:9-10 states:

But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

When he did the video “Thriller,” it had demons and all sorts of terrifying things in it. Now look at him (and other chameleons), he gave up his soul for material things of this world. His very soul is gone for naught. He may have money, fame, and fortune but look at what he had to do to get it – sell his soul.
