This is what and how I believe. I honor what and how you believe as long as it doesn't harm other people in mind or body.

It's Not How We Do Believe By Franklin Price 10/30/2016 It's not how we do believe But in whom we do believe That will get us through heaven's pearly gates It's not entering the church Every time the doors are open Or listening to Christ's preaching delegates If we need the extra hedge If daily life's driving a wedge In your belief that Jesus is the way the light Then church is there for you And it's something you should do To confirm for you that your path is right The path is doing all we can While believing in the Lord Who died on that lonely cross for you and me That he gave his life for us To forgive us of our sins And when we die we will in heaven be It's honoring his way Doing good from day to day Doing all we can to help our fellow man Honor home and family Be the best friend we can be To join Jesus on the day we kick the can Don't chastise my having fun For me that's how it's done Jesus wouldn't want us sad but very droll If we practice what we preach Heaven's well within our reach Jesus saves our very undeserving souls
