Clash Of The Covenants

   I’ve never beat around the bush
There’s nothing I’ve tried to hide
I’ve always been honest even if I
Take a risk our opinions may collide

When it comes to my love of Jesus
I’ve always let it be known
In my heart I know he’s with me
And I’ll never be alone

You might think I’m a Christian
But that’s technically wrong
I’m a man of righteousness
And in reality it’s a new song

Here’s the reason why, I sing
With my excited breath
I’ve been freed from the *******
Of the ministry of death

The ministry of death is the teaching
Of the old covenant of Mosaic law
This teaching is now obsolete and it
Might as well be the Devils Claw

Jesus died and his blood washed our sin
We’re free from trying to be prefect servants
Replacing the old with the new,celebrate the victory Jesus won in Clash Of The Covenants

I Re Wrote This and I deleted the other one

Thank you!!!
I’m reading a book with the same title.
What I love about it is the Author explains it clearly and breaks it all down. He’s not saying that we are free to do as we please and everyone goes to Heaven.
No he’s not saying that we can break the laws. What he is saying is that the laws had an original purpose but with them also came the introduction of the sins that we were not to commit. Thou shall not covet being the last one and most important. If thou covets he/she is in temptation to lie steal and **** and if he or she covets the affection of someone other than their own spouse He/ She May also commit Adultery. Coveting leads to all of the other sins. He also states that if you have one law you must abide by all of the laws. Break one and you’ve broken all of them. You cannot pick and choose which laws you wish to obey and which ones you choose to break. The laws were to be obeyed holding the standard of perfection and no human is perfect. The temptation was to much and mankind buckled under the pressure. God saw this to be a huge problem the harder we tried to be perfect the more we became sinful. Adam and Eve had one law. Thou shall not eat of the tree with the forbidden fruit. One temptation from the serpent and the law was broken.
Think of a child being told they cannot have any cookies from the cookie jar and you turn your back for a minute and they get into the jar eat the cookie and you catch them with the evidence upon their face. So God sends his Son Jesus to be sacrificed upon the Cross to take all sin from everyone and I mean everyone if only they believe in him and believe he is the Messiah and except the gift of Grace and salvation.
This frees us from the ******* of the laws and the pressure of perfection and the temptation of breaking the laws.
In turn a righteous person does good naturally with their faith in Jesus he/she doesn’t have any desire to covet lie or steal or ****. It’s complete freedom from any sinful thought and of any pain and it is pure love and it gives us more willingness to love as well. Love thy neighbor as you love yourself, there’s no hate in the soul of someone who has faith in Jesus. It’s really amazing when the light bulb comes on and you can see the light and you can become the light. I’ve never felt so free.
The old covenant of the laws of Moses
(The Commandments)
Were made obsolete and basically useless debris with the new covenant made with the crucifixion of Jesus. Those who believe in me shall have eternal life in Heaven.
Everything I just explained I tried to put in my short poem. Jesus crucifixion was the victory of the Clash of the covenants the new destroying the old. It’s really Beautiful!!! God Bless!!!

Hard Rain Fallin

    I know you don’t love me anymore
But I don’t know your reasons why
I know I’ll drown without you
I can’t swim in the tears you cry

I know I’m losing you
My life is slowly slipping away
I’m reaching for something to hold on to
My blue sky is turning grey

My heart is breaking
I just wanna scream
I once believed in love
But love is just a dream

Love might as well be just
A Drop of water in an endless sea
A heart even in its mass is just
Broken and useless debris

If you say goodbye
I won’t come back crawlin
I’m not ready for departure and
I’m not ready for the Hard Rain Fallin

I reach for the vine

Surely I must have felt
the teardrop;
when it left my lashes,
missed my cheek and blot-stained
the ground where I laid.

My only regret is that I had failed
to read the message each carried
before they disappeared into
the ***** of my darkness.

Thy Hand leadeth
where Thou are
My soul seeketh
The bright midnight star
Whisper once again
My heart
Ease the burden strained
On my aching mind

And calm me some
Let thine Light rain down
From  clear midnight sky
To cover all of me
With peace and security
Love and serenity

Oh Great Almighty God

Teach mine heart to speak
Words of comfort
Words of peace
Lay Thy secrets within me
To comfort those in need
Praise resound to only Thee

Oh Great Almighty God

And see not my stained Life
Sin and pride
And greed
But wash me
Drench me
With Thine Blood
Cleanse me thoroughly

And may i dwell
Within Thy presence
All of Eternity
To see
And hear
To know
And feel
When beneath Thy Loving
Heed
I shall not want
Nor more will need...

My Prayer unto You
Oh Great Almighty God
------Amen------

Pain for me is a cracked vase
It holds dead unwatered flowers.

The flowers were vibrant now they’re faded
Jaded and deflated

One crack lets out water and pain floods into me
sensitive souls suffer silently and experience pain profoundly.

I wanted happiness but got pain and accepted that as an extension of life.

Warm Grazes
smudge your thumb print
across bated lips

Rolling vapours
Of breath intermingled

Souls reaching for eachother's atmosphere

Beats call out in tandem
Secret Desires wrapped up in eachother's hearts

It was only meant to be an innocent kiss

A hovering of possibilities

One moment of soft mallowed bliss
Timid delving lip tips

A universe of possibilities hung there

Waiting for tasting

But lines had already been drawn
across thier stars

Star crossed
Eyes locked

Aniticipation of realising fantasy

Raging Hopes fade with dawning truths  

And then it hits them
The coming to of senses
Heart breaking reality

A crowded room
Suddenly ****** into
a world of strangers

Along a forbidden path
A loveapple left on the vine

Unplucked and overripe
seeping with the juice of if onlys

Oh, what could have been?

If Eve had been restrained and
Adam a less jealous fool

As a consequence
Sweet lips lay bare
a longing pair

Untasted
Wasted...
Your voice whispers in my ear
The memories we made fill my mind
The promises we made make me smile

But I stand alone
My heart was both soaring and breaking
A life that will never be

A promise to be different
A feeling I didn't know I missed
A life that I dream of

Tears shed for a name.
A voice
A person

I miss you more than ever.
And even though you'll never read this
I still love you...

Though my heart wants to scream a thousand words
My body wants to run from the thought of you
I still love you, Ghostie

He loved his family they never talked all they did was talk about one another. Instead of building each other up all the hatred knocking on another.
Everyone goes through stuff but you can't tell people what to do or how to live their life. All you could do is warn them they won't listen choosing the hard way sometimes is the eye opener.
Being the oldest watching your siblings grow set in their ways not telling them anything then quick to judge you for not giving them their way. Trying to destroy you because they didn't get things their way

My body was art --- not to your taste,
you covered me in criticism.
Your words molding me like clay
until the mirror reflected a shell.

The child inside,
forever lost.

Said, “hey dad I’ll see you around.”
But I never did
You said, “Life gets better.”
But it never did.

Had a funeral
The whole family came
Never saw some of their faces again

Olivia’s  crying cause she’ll never get
Her father/daughter dance
She gave Eli your name for his middle
a walking tribute to you.

They said you went to Heaven
What’s that do for a kid?
Give hope to adolescence?
When I got older
I wish they never did

When something good happens
I point up to the sky
As if you had something o do with it
A small white lie

Don’t worry I learned to tie a tie
And to kiss a girl
To drive a car
And to drink to forget you

They said you went to Heaven
Said I’ll see you there soon
20 years later
Sometimes I think I see you
waiting just past the moon
