Leads To Eternity

There is a way that seems right to us, but the end there of is death,
for life and death itself, is written down, in our breath.
 The very words we speak, and the power that they contain,
speaking words of death, in our darkness we remain.
 Good or evil, hot or cold, you see,
when we live as both, then luke warm, we shall be.
 To come out of this madness, step into His life,
to show love, and forgiveness, not weaving webs of strife.
 To treat others, as we want to be treated you see,
to be both good and evil, we are not mean’t to be.
 For the truth is this, luke warm will be our taste,
it’s hot or cold, or He will spew us out as waste.
 For being luke warm, is living for self, and denying the truths that be,
for narrow is the path, not many will take, that leads to eternity.
