New Testament Churches

Equipped the saints, disciple making
As God’s Word, obeyed, applied
Just as Jesus, with His disciples
They went forth, and multiplied.

Many Pastors are Panicking

Not passive spectators
Sitting silent, just staring
But God’s Word applying
Reproducing, all were sharing.

Churchianity or Christianity?

We’re not equipping, with ‘how-to’
Nor teaching, Jesus’ way
Not mentoring, role-modeling
Not reproducing, to obey.

God Restores

“To revive the spirit, of the humble
Revive the heart, of those contrite”
Our Master Potter, can reshape
We His clay, remold aright.

Our Personal Baggage

For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.

Shame-Blame Cycle

But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.

Shame, Disclaim, Blame

When failing, we do wrong
Try to bury, in shame
Then, blame on another
While lies excuses, we proclaim.

Love not the World

Are we carnal and fleshly
Walk by faith, or by sight?
By our lusts, sensual desires
Live by instincts, appetites?

God’s Amazing Promise

God declared unto Abram
I will bless those, who bless you
And I will curse him, who curses you
All families on earth, blessed thro’ you.
