On the Morning of the Resurrection You''ll Need Two Forms of Identification

In the Resurrection God manifests Himself

As wholly God and wholly man so that

Our tragic flaws are buried with His death

And our true selves freed at the Garden Tomb

 

This is so we can take the next 2,000 earth-years

To celebrate and live His infinite Mercy

By condemning each other to our copyrighted Hell

Often for simply not getting the words exactly right

 

As for the rest of God’s children

 

We Christians block the gate and disapprove of you -

Members only (sniff) but we’ll see what we can do
