Circus
Welcome to the circus.
Where Men full of wicked courage
stand holding firm the sacred scripture in their fist,
Ready to mislead the sheep.
Without consent they open their mouths,
their eyes open, arms widespread to share self-made tales from the pulpit.
Without reasoning they birth false teachings
Claiming "it is from the Lord."
They've abandoned shame, settled in stores full of empty promises.
Without hesitation they hand them out to the pews.
Welcome to the circus.
Deception is their life and distorting the truth is their adrenaline.
Men with a popular tongue,
soothing words that spring from their lips,
boldly and willful blaspheming the glorious ones.
These men are clouds without rain,
Waterless springs,
Trees without fruits.
Unconverted hearts with a "Christ" professing tongue.
Relying on their dreams, defile the flesh and reject the authority of God.
Welcome to the circus.
For they come as wolves in sheep clothing.
Be warned, they are not just clowns but the entire circus.
twisting and preaching a "different gospel".
Men who think the fortune of the pews is in their hands.
They can 'claim, proclaim and anoint'.
They've rejected Jesus Christ as the savior,
replaced him with charms.
Welcome to the circus.
they think the problem with the pews is negative thinking,
low self-esteem, poor budgeting.
misleading the sheep, leading them astray.
Welcome to the circus.
God will attend to them,
their way shall be slippery paths,
in darkness they shall be driven and fall.
Not even one will be left,
their punishment has long been in wait.
And God will gather all His sheep and bring them back to the fold.
Now to him who is able to keep us from stumbling.
and present us blameless before the presence of his glory,
with great joy, Christ our God and savior
be glory, majesty, dominion and authority.
before all time and forever Amen.
