Poem
Those sinners in that night club in florida, if you ask me, finally got what was comin for them When my father said this to me at our dinner table i could have cried I could have spoke sermons to him that i have spent years working on These was the chance i had been waiting for for five years To tell him everything i knew about being gay in the church This was the moment that i had filled 27 documents on my google drive for But i didn't say anything I Scoffed, shook my head, and ate my green peas This was my chance to say Dad The bible says that we are all created equal in his image The bible says thou shall not judge The bible says no sin is greater than another Dad if it is true that all sin is equal doesn't that mean that you judging someone for committing what you believe is a sin is equal to them committing that sin Dad I have heard you say you can not love another man as a Christian because they are gay and gay is a sin But you love your children who disobey you and disobeying your parents is a sin This people in the night club got what was comin for them But you wouldnt say that if someone shot up an elementary school when he the man who is gay and you the man who judged him for it are standing together at the pearly gates god is not going to see you as your sexuality dad he is going to see you as a sinner and he is going to forgive you the bible says forgive dad not once not twice not seven times but infinitely the bible says love thy neighbor as thine self dad it does not say love thy neighbor as thine self unless thy neighbor is gay according to the bible Jesus did not die on the cross to save straight people he died on the cross to save sinners Jesus did not come to earth to save people who are perfect he came to save sinners he did came and spent his time with prostitutes and tax collectors the bible says we all deserve hell and damnation it doesn't say some sinners deserve more hell and damnation than others when he was born the gay man and you were the man who would judge him for being gay Neither of you was born better dad And neither of you was born more pure Jesus did not die on the cross to save straight people he died on the cross to save sinners Dad There is no segregation of sin at the pearly gates You can not teach a religion of love If what you preach is hate But i didnt say any of that I scoffed I shook my head And i ate my green peas
