Beware of Requirements
You received Christ Jesus the Lord,
Let His Word be never ignored;
So you can continue to live,
With His blessings that He will give.
Sink your roots in fertile soil,
Build and strengthen through the toil;
Strengthen by faith as you were taught,
Overflow with thanksgiving sought.
Let not anyone rob you,
Of the faith within that is true;
Through a shadow theology,
Or misleading philosophy.
They follow human traditions,
Rather than Christian foundations;
The way of this world they follow,
Victuals from fire they swallow.
In Christ God has made you complete,
And now able to take your seat;
Christ is in charge of all you see,
All that has been and that will be.
Every president and king,
Ruler over everything;
The authority overall,
Including which is spiritual.
In Christ you were circumcised,
Which means that you were sacrificed;
So with being placed in a tomb,
And given rebirth from the womb.
So with Christ through your affusion,
Which will end any confusion;
Being brought back to life through Him,
A new you that is fit and trim.
