Our Body, Soul and Spirit

With now our body, His Temple
Glorify God, in all He gives
Our soul, belongs to God.
By His Spirit, our spirit lives.

So how to set, our heart anew
To keep abiding in Jesus’ vine?
Not entrapped in carnal thoughts
Instead, be fixed on things divine.

Though we have, our Constitution
Our Bill of Rights, at core
But overridden, by deception
By duplicity, and even more.

Since the church, is Christ’s body
We’re His temple, a living stone
But, seems modern church goals
Miss disciple making, so little known.

With each discipled, taught abiding
To learn obeying, go make disciples
Teaching them, disciple-making
To reach the nations, pray for revivals.

But evangelists are training
To equip and show how
Watch their videos, read books
Obey God, and learn now.

Instead equip, the saints for ministry
To train them for outreach
For the work of the ministry
To multiply, so all are reached.

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

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

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