Gods Moral Obligation

I may question your beliefs 
but my standard is not my own 

I can not trust my thoughts 
because my thoughts are not yet grown 

My moral compass points to me 
and I realise this truth 

but you fail to realise you 
also subjectivize yours too 

and everytime you violate the 
thoughts within your mind 

you may take two steps forward 
but it still sets you back in time 

what may be true for you may not be true for me 
living in expression is not a certainty 

theres a difference between intention and living necessity 
one exists by virtue the other sets you free 

sincerity doesnt determine truth its a mere way to abscond 
morality is coherence a truthful way to correspond 

when you rise above the chains of predetermination 
freewill then takes its place as Gods moral obligation

Sincerity doesn't determine truth, neither does incessant repetition. Enjoyed the line of reasoning, unfortunately looks like many sincere ones will be disappointed when the lies are exposed!
