Our God signs with an “X” ’cause His name is “I AM.”
And like Him, so an X, ‘love’ just is!
Christ! I laugh at this joke; God can be such a ham!
Truth Be Known’s public fan of showbiz!
When “X” brings ‘Flood’ to town, Love, it covers the earth!
OMG, supernatural feat! (1)
Long past Bliss of birth’s stall (after Mary gave birth) ,
‘Son of Man’ lived God’s word with his feet! (2)
Did Christ die, rise from death, pierced flesh days in a tomb
(Congregations of ‘faith’ dream its true!)
And while greeting His fate with a Son of Man’s gloom, (3)
Still, accede to what God ask Him to?
Might Christ’s sacrifice mean that God loves us ‘through death? ‘
Tell me how you respond to ‘God’s Grace? ‘
Do man’s actions redeem good oozed out with each breath,
Buy a ticket to ‘smile on God’s face? ‘

Poet’s Notes:
(1)I am still wondering what God did with all that extra water!
(2)A humorous way to say, “Christ talked the talk and walked the
walk!
(3)Christ prayed to God to somehow save Him from the cross!
I am guessing that a few (some who claim to be Christian)will be
horrified by my poem, and likely some non-Christians dislike it as
well! For many non-Christians reject the idea of God, in part at
least, because ‘man’s church’ (those who say they are believers)
has been historically and frequently still is a demonic source of
evil in this world! I dream that God will smile, and perhaps laugh
out loud with me (as He so often does)at my poem!
All true believers in the Bible MUST HATE the hard fact that ‘any-
one’ would reject God because of evil brought into the world by
people of faith! And this is a historical truth of all religions! For
most, if not all terrorists, claim they believe in God or at least
claim that they serve ‘TRUTH! ‘ Is any vanity greater or viler than
the thought that we grok (understand intimately)what is right,
what is wrong?
How does one reconcile the idea that the Bible (which represents
itself as the “Word of THE Living God”)can be infallibly received,
with the fact, that those who claim to be believers INFLICT HARM
on brothers and sisters of the same mother, not to mention, their
brothers and sisters in Christ? Who but Christ himself can act in
God’s name? What ‘hockey puck! ‘ Pardon my French!
My answer is straightforward! My faith in God’s Grace, in the Bible,
may save my soul, but it does NOT keep me from sinning. The
responsibility of any believer is to model correct behavior to others
and thus help them believe in the possibility of God, help them
to want to know more about Him. The human understanding of any
sacred text is never GOD’S WORD, and God’s Truth is never in us;
Man’s faith can never be the TRUTH; man’s beliefs are never TRUE!
God is our judge, the only JUDGE!
