Fooled In Church.....
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson

Some churches play and act as fools

Though Heaven’s word is plain

They break barefaced The Father’s rules

For lust of selfish gain

 

The blind are leading blind to hell

Knowing not where they go

Holding to what their shepherds tell

Following to and fro

 

Money is what most preach about

If preaching is its name

Having no faith fear or doubt?

God’s work is just a game

 

Yet from The Truth, no lie can hide

The Lord’s no fool or jerk

With perfect eyes open wide

He sees the rogues at work

 

Countless megachurches growing fast

Regardless of their sin

Many invites to have a blast

Who need but walk on in

 

Though countless souls are dying still

Seeking Salvation Way

Judging the pastors do God’s will

They’ll do the things they say

 

Music and singing fill the halls

Where servants sought The King

What happens though when Jesus calls?

What fruit will then they bring

 

Many are teaching Darwin trash

Living as Satan’s whore

But soon they’ll scream their teeth will gnash

Cursing forever more.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
