Poem: Intellectual Postulations

Sadly, there are many intellectual postulations

that are well meaning, but fatally flawed.

One can only end up with an unholy mixture from…

combining Man’s religious views with God’s Law.

 

Beyond the constraints of the mental realm,

the human template of thought cannot contain God.

Yet after more than two thousand years of Church,

lessons are still not learned; so it’s not odd…

 

to see a skeptical world, groaning and grasping

for rays of hope and light and salvation.

God’s truth can stand on its own, not needing

to be couched within feeble human traditions.

 

The multitude of meaningless rhetoric

will ultimately reveal the heart of a fool;

this idea demonstrates that the Church really needs…

Christ in its heart to reign and to rule.

 

It’s shameful to see an inability to ‘walk in love’;

unfortunately, it seems to appear everywhere today;

stop ignoring the basic, Biblical truths, for…

Christ declared Himself to be the Life, Truth and Way.

 

 

 

 

Author Notes:

 

Loosely based on:

Prov 10:19; Eccl 5:1-7; Prov 20:15
