Purification
Lack Of Compassion Jesus said they'll know Christians by our love Do not judge or you will be judged Holier than though, have you never sinned? The Bible says all men have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Jesus came for the sinners, not the righteous All men are sinners He ate with sinners and had compassion for them God poured our his love and the sinners turned and followed Him Holier than thou Turning people off to God because of despisement in your voice Holier than thou Pharisees and Sadducees Holier than thou show compassion for those who do not yet know Christ Holier than thou Love the sinner, hate the sin If they were only shown the love of Jesus and not your despisement and condemnation For God so loved the world That he gave his one and only Son That whoever believes in Him Shall not perish but have everlasting life For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world but to save the word through Him Satan loves it when you make a mockery of God's love Claiming to be a Christian but spitting venom and hate The Bible says the world will hate Christians, because it rejects Christ Not because we acted like a bunch of jerks Turn your self-righteousness into humility Accept others with their faults as God accepted you Who made you a judge, holier than thou It makes me want to cry to see the harm you do The sinner you see may have never before been shown love Pain may be all they know, but Christ can heal their wounds As ambassadors for Christ it's our job to lead them to Him They should know we are Christians by our love The Bible says they'll know we are Christians by our love!
Humbled (Luke 18: 10-14] Satan knows your weaknesses, HE knows just how to tempt you, You'll get hit at your weakest moment, Fall into sin again and again, Then depression sets in, you feel so bad that you've fallen again, You feel too ashamed to turn back to God, then you begin to turn away. Resistance against Satan is not futile, the bible says resist him and he'll flee from you. Humble yourself before God and He'll life you up, Draw near to Him and He'll draw near to you. Don't turn away from Jesus, He wants to heal your heart and make you whole. Confess your sins and repent, All Christians stumble and make mistakes, Who can save us from our bodies of death, JESUS! Never rationalize your sin, Never tell yourself it's not that bad, Never justify your sin, finding reasons to say it's not your fault or that it's not wrong, Mourn and wail against your sin, Bring it to God and He'll forgive you, Our spirits seek righteousness and God, our flesh is weak, they're in constant war. Submission to God is the only way to defeat evil, Our Lord and Savior Jesus is the way. There were some people who were confident of their own righteousness. They looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable. Two men went up to the temple to pray. One a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself – "God I thank you that I am not like other men. Robbers, evildoers, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get." But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to Heaven, but beat his chest and said "God have mercy on me, a sinner." I tell you the tax collector rather than the Pharisee went home justified before God... For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.

Creeping into the chapter of you The sin you welcome Multiply strife Increased death life extinction Existence that endures One must see it's scheme All wrapped up in it's allure Demise of yourself is foreseen Desire that is unquenchable Fulfillment sought from the natural Settle for a cheap imitation The heart cold and hardened The continuation of a struggle Freedom seems but a dream Holding fast to the giver of life Persistence because of His grace Sarcastic deviation Wanting to call you it's own Despising it's deception Truth found in Him, the Cornerstone

Withered (John 15: 1-17) I am the true vine My Father is the gardener He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit He prunes the fruitful branch so it will be more fruitful If anyone does not remain in Me, He's like a branch that's thrown away and withers, Thrown into the fire and burned I am the vine, you are the branches If a man remains in Me and I in him He will bear much fruit Apart from Christ you can do nothing As the Father has loved me So have I loved you Now remain in My love If you obey my commands You will remain in My love Just as I've obeyed my Father's commands and remain in His love.

On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?” He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.” But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes and beat him, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’ “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.” “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.” (heavily adapted from Luke 10:25-37, NIV)

Narrow (Matthew 7:13) Our cry is for freedom for what feels good Aren't there many paths to God but none understood Behold the glory and the radiance All truth found in His word It's an all or nothing thing No man comes to God except through His Son Your belief is archaic It's all they cry Again with no standards failing So many try A spirit of treason Billions filled with delusions Give back the truth Renewed absolutes filling your minds Behold the glory and the radiance All truth found in His word It's an all or nothing thing No man comes to God except through His Son. Through supplication We prove you wrong Clinging to abhorrent separation it what we long Don't be deceived by decaying humanity No one was meant to be lost Christ died so all could received Whether you agree or not Truth stands alone. Misguided doctrines of convenience His ways are not our own

Meaningless (Ecclesiastes) What is the life worth living? Living life in the fear of God Seeing wealth as the road to satisfaction Our hopes are always disappointed Living life in measureless frustration Or living life in the fear of God We must live life as humble true worshippers If we are ever to enjoy living As God intended us to live Contentment is God's mandate for our lives True contentment is an act of faith

The Word Words of wisdom, words of life God gave us His word to teach us his ways Reading, and studying A great passion of mine The words are alive, they strengthen my spirit They give me direction, they teach me God's will Ancient scrolls Just as relevant now to our modern life Book of rules, regulations Those who've rejected Christ think it's meant to oppress But the freedom to my spirit The words bring tears to my eyes False doctrine creeps in at every chance People misquote and take things out of context You need to study for yourself what's written in the word Study what's taught to you, and find out for yourself if it's true Know the scriptures, know the word Sermons are great, but they shouldn't be your only choice And like I said, test the sermons Find out for yourself if they're scripturally sound But all the Bible study in the world Is no good if it's not put into practice Knowing to love others, but showing them hate Makes your studying null and void His Spirit residing within you is what makes the word come alive in your life He'll fill you with his fire and cover you with his blood Ask Jesus to enter your heart, He'll give you all you need His love is like no other, His forgiveness has no end The choice is yours, He's given you free will We have the ability to choose evil or good It's a free gift He's offering you, please take it and become His child His arms are open waiting for you His living words contained in the Bible pertain to every part of your life. It's not some outdated literature, it's not behind the times It's what's relevant then, it's relevant now It's relevant to the future of humankind Don't deprive yourself of the most important thing in life

Misguided Mercy [John 8:58-59, John 10:30-32; Corinthians 1:18] A picture's worth a thousand words A word is worth a thousand hurts Offensive teaching causes abject misery The only cure is compassionate sorcery Ears like a hairpin trigger Indignation getting bigger Can't control animosity At another's perceived pomposity Moving on is now allowed Perpetrators are disavowed They fail to tolerate all acts Feeling they speak enlightened facts Point of View of Christian: But much offense is misguided Too many things make them see red To stand for nothing is to die Allowing you to believe a lie A new generation of Sodomites Demand respect and certain rights Offended and making a fuss At hearing the bold words of Jesus The Word was given to proclaim Speaking it should not bring shame Tolerance may seem right at first But tolerating sin is worse
