Poem
The Holy Spirit through our souls searches
and in despair silently He cries:
there are so many Pharisees in churches,
exhibiting hypocrisy and lies.

About Christ abundantly they know,
their knowledge they're happy to parade,
but not His holy image they show,
preferring to fake and masquerade.

Insulting Jesus Christ, our living God,
they're blind to His teaching's higher goals.
Theology so often twisted, flawed,
is flourishing instead of building souls.

Before you know, they can destroy
all hopes to find there a brotherhood.
Not fruits of love, self-discipline, and joy
they plant - not any seed that's good.

For self-promotion they grab a chance,
and their faith is shallow indeed,
and wallowing in their pious stance,
to their perils many others lead.

Cesspools of self-deception, gossip, strife,
they follow the idol of the day,
and in Christ's body they stifle life,
when they wicked qualities display.

Unable to detect their own sin,
unable to repent on their knees,
they care more for their own skin,
and their nature they want to please.

They easily their own wrongs excuse,
besides, Christ forgive them, they say,
but ready to condemn and to accuse,
they carry on to slander and betray.

They're always learning, but in their pride
the simplest truth, they cannot understand.
Who disagrees with them, they will deride,
such person from their circle will be banned.

They like to flock - it makes them feel secure
in their errors, which they promote,
and with their understanding immature
they verses out of context often quote.

They cannot listen, dim in their brains.
For them compassion is, alas, unknown,
and malice clogs their arteries and veins,
when arrogance is sitting on a throne.

Self-righteous, complacent with their sins,
of their salvation they themselves assure.
But what does their error underpins?
It's not the Holy Spirit, to be sure!

Oh blind pharisee, alas, alas!
You may appear dignified and smart,
but vainly you search for a bypass
to Jesus, who is looking in your heart.
