Anil Deo Poet Didactic

We Need a Good God Ever

I
In scripture, Creator-Redeemers contradict
One law and rule with another
Even "be good, do good," may be wrong
For as KANT said, if motives are selfish
The actions we do lack goodwill, ethics

II
Yet I love the good God of The Bible
Because of the beauty of His holiness
Exodus 15:11 if you want to read more
The fact is, we need a good model of agape
No human love, act, thought ... Is selfless
So we seek: is there a Canon OF Holy Good?
We call that idea - we so need - God

Keep the poetry coming, debate its good for the soul..Harry Anil Deo September 24, 2022 at 3:13 AM Absolutely, the gist of your post+ feedback says we are both terrible & awesomely created: orcwe became terrible for FREEDOM/ FREE WILLS SAKE. LORD God could nit firce Adam & eve 2 love & obey: it's what we bring to Him all else he made & brings us to, includng gold & metals) medals in THE DIRT
