We know that we all have knowledge,
But knowledge makes you arrogant;
If you have love it builds bondage,
Which will make you more elegant.
The people who think that they know,
Still be having so much to learn;
Because the wisdom did not flow,
On knowledge that they think they earn.
But if they love God He knows them,
They are truly known by the Lord;
And the Father will not condemn,
Their requests will not be ignored.
There is only one triune God,
The Father, Son, Holy Spirit;
That if we do honor and laud,
Then salvation we inherit.
Everything has come from God,
We continue to live in Him;
His Son is our Lord, who called,
Upon us never to be grim.
Our Brother is Jesus Christ,
And has taken all our sin;
On the cross it was sacrificed,
So the Spirit could cleanse within.
Everything came to being,
Because of Him we also live;
All unseen and we are seeing,
Resources that are supportive.
But this not everyone knows,
Some people just worship false gods;
Material things their faith flows,
Continuing to worship frauds.
They feel guilty in where they seek,
Food offered to false gods they eat;
Because their conscience is so weak,
Their faith will never be complete.
