The Passion of Christ

THE PASSION OF CHRIST A Confrontational Poem by Atsu Adaletey The Passion Of Christ Is a Mission With Thirst The Passion Of Christ Is a Vision With a firm Decision The passion of Christ Is faith in Action Not a Risk For Experimentation Is not to take pride in church mansion with air condition It is to step out, reach out to those poor souls in a hopeless condition It is not to take pride in your smartphones during church service It is to fear the Lord for his greatness and to revere Him with some level of discipline It is not for church sitters But for church workers It is not for crowd-driven souls But for kingdom-driven souls The passion for Christ Now replaced with the passion for lust That which ignores the essence of the Trinity The passion for Christ is not for high hills who are reluctant to jump in His praise The passion for Christ is for flat feet that humble their reputation and position for His praise The passion for Christ is not for make-ups that fake His praise The passion for Christ is not for make-ups that denies the soul from true worship It is for souls who truly understand what it means to worship Him in truth and in spirit It is for those whose skin deserves some whip It is for those whose palms receives some nailing, embracing the pain of sacrifice in worship The passion for Christ is for “wanna dos” Not for “wanna sees” Show me your phone and let Jehovah show me how much time He spends watching over you Show me your expenses and let the creator who gives you life showcase your offerings and tithes Tell me how old you are And let Him tell you how many “minutes” you are left with Tell me how busy you are And let Him tell you how free He is The Passion Of Christ Is a Mission With Thirst The Passion Of Christ Is a Vision With a firm Decision The passion of Christ Is faith in Action Not a Risk For Experimentation It is not for church sitters But for church workers It is not for crowd-driven souls But for kingdom-driven souls Where is your passion? In Christianity or Vanity ?

Speechless! Loved it. Challenging but thoughtfully gentle and true.
