Value PurityBecause of the Lord Jesus Christ, You are urged not to be enticed; Living in a God pleasing way, And no longer trying to stray. Although temptation causes strife, You must live the God pleasing life; Do it the way that you were taught, Not to let desire be sought. You know just what you have been told, On being humble and not bold; It is the will of God to quit, Causing salvation to forfeit. Go find a husband or a wife, For spending the rest of your life; Not someone for passion and lust, Rather that you can fully trust, No person should take advantage, Of your character to damage; Trying to be a deceiver, By exploiting a believer. God has called us to be holy, For being His one and only; So do not try to act unchaste, Allow the cross to be embraced. Whoever rejects through merit, Barricades the Holy Spirit; Attempting to enter within, Because of corruption and sin. I urge you to love even more, Not to entice with lustful lure; Rather showing that you do care, And that you are willing to share. Copyright © 2011 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
