Sins' Chain Reactions

Sins - they are violations, faults, offenses Any forms of sins leads to ill guilt feelings Resulting from human's weaknesses and pride Disrupting disturbing human relationships Placing any cognitive being to shame and doubt {"To err is human, to forgive is Divine"} To each and every decision and action Us - human beings must never forget to discern Anything we do stimulates chain reactions If sin is seen, beforehand sternly spurn The devil will provide worldly attractions But, hear me Human... I appeal to you: BE FIRM! AWAY FROM TEMPTATION! AWAY FROM DEVIL'S SATISFACTION! Rather, integrity and a life eternal we must earn...

Olive a nice poem but I disagree with your last line we cannot earn eternal life it is a free gift from God.

Yes, it is true that it is freely given and offered by GOD but isn't it we must also work on it.... :) for at the end of our life our actions here on earth will be judged accordingly and it is then we will know.. :)
