Christ Like

Christ Like Christian? Hmmm – let’s see Professing virtue Condescendingly We start with a claim We separate in to groups Denominations – Thirty five hundred How convenient – no need for any proof The Christ we say we follow Embodies the word He lives out what he teaches Actions are what need to be heard We just say “We’re all sinners” Sick - decrepit souls We’ll never live up To the greatest story that’s been told Dissonance - suffering Apathetic and broke We’ll just point out others beliefs Judge them and make jokes Christian? I prefer Follower of Christ By following his word It makes life feel so right No judgment No fear No shame No hidden agenda to trade my soul for fame Perhaps we are sinners Because of biological drives Acceptance – awareness - beauty Salvation – you come alive If you become what you say Your actions will speak the truth Be Christ like Like the Bible says - You will know them by their fruits

So true! There's a lot of this going on. It's easy to find fault and point the finger. Following and obeying Christ and his teachings makes a huge impact.
