Mannequin Virtue

Virtue is to have excellent morality;
An admirable quality or property.

Holy Angels are virtues of order.
Like, Samson, a man of excellent valor.

Virtue is to clothe oneself with Jesus Christ;
Like, Arnor on a hero or royal knight.

God's righteousness is virtuous light;
Like, stars shining very bright.

A Jesus freak is a control freak;
A dummy that knows nothing of being meek.

A dummy has no sight;
A dummy can't even fight.

A dummy might say "Jesus is Satan";
Wearing nothing or just satin.

A dummy is worse than dead;
That walks like a zombie with no head.

True virtue is doing God's will and answering his call;
Mannequin virtue is fake, not having a life at all.
