The Cross

matthew jay

I am not ashamed

Of Jesus

For he was not

Ashamed of me

He took my sins

Upon himself

He died 

To set 

Me free

 

Whom the Son

Sets free

Is free indeed

    good for you!
    just please, keep an open mind
    see the potential for harm, in blind faith
    be led, if you must
    but be led with eyes open, Choosing to trust
    but aware, that those profiteering
    from Dogmatic - translation, interpretations
    are just like you and me, fallible - by design
    and so, capable of making mistakes..
    Utilise, your chosen faith
    but don't please, become another digit
    enslaved by that herd mentality..
    and No, you don't need to convert the world
    if it works for you, that's miracle enough
    in and of: itself...
    (apologies if my words cause offence
    I'm an overtly opinionated fool, as a curse
    but I mean well - ha!
    and if you but state once, I'll never bother you again'

      Set you free from what?

      • matthew jay

        Jesus sets people free from the power of sin and penalty of sin before God. If anyone would like to discuss Jesus please do it through my private message. Or you can do this for any poem I write. We can spend more time there....thank you

          Please display the proof of your statement - if you can. I don't think you'll find many who will want to enter the cloister of private discussion about your religious persuasion. Comments upon posts are made for all to see without exception - which is of course why the facility exists.

          Good write Matthew. It sounds hymn-like, be it only one verse.

          • matthew jay

            Thanks orchidee, my poems are always short. I don't write long ones.

            This was a great and uplifting piece. This could not be more true.
