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'
No L.B. I am not offended. I cannot save anyone only Jesus can do that. People please remember these are poems, which is why I am here. To read and write poems. Thank you L.B..
Set you free from what?
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.
I will write this for all one time. I will not defend my poems or thoughts to anyone here. If you don't like what I write don't read them. Acting tough on the internet means nothing. I was willing to discuss but you are not. You only want to argue so you will get my standard answer. Have a nice day. I went through this on another poetry sight for 3 years but they were will to discuss not argue.
I see no argument stemming from me but rather a request for clarification. On the other hand i observe you taking a accusatory stance which is disappointing.
When you post material on the internet Matthew you cannot prevent it from being read. Your sentence "If you don't like what I write don't read them" is clearly illogical. Until it has been read how can one make a like / dislike judgement?
Your opening sentence has an air of your feeling about it. I'm sorry you feel that my query was annoying. It is a shame you are unable to address the matter rather than side-stepping it.
I know how this is Matthew, your title is clear what you write about, so write on my brother,my husband Dion and I stand united with you my friend
thank you Blue and Dion too
Good write Matthew. It sounds hymn-like, be it only one verse.
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.
Persistence is key
Thank you very much. i find your writing very uplifting here and strengthening...thank you
Powerful and beautiful write..
thank you Floreann
