AND SUCH WERE SOME OF YOU
(1st Corinthians 6:8-20)
Easier to ignore God’s word,
Than to have one’s comfort disturbed…
Watch whatever you want
As long as one does not flaunt,
Portrayal of the evil served.
–
Christians will give an accounting
Of inner transgressions mounting…
Many don’t realize
That compromise
Is proof of not growing up soundly.
–
Once with Jesus we’re washed,
To go back to sin is a wash…
The natural mind
Is still inclined
To think of morals as pish-tosh.
–
For a spirit, once cleaned,*
But not occupied “ain’t” redeemed…
When allowing in
Similar sin,
Is ripe for being gleaned.
–
So, whom will you serve,
The world, in your private preserve?…
Or be set apart,
Fully give your heart
To God without reserve!
–Jonathan Caswell
