Do not believe all the people,
Saying that they know the Gospel;
Or they have the Holy Spirit,
They know not what they inherit.
Rather go and give them a test,
See if they have spiritual zest;
And if the Spirit is within,
Checking if they are free from sin.
There are many false prophets,
Looking for those who are puppets;
For if they do pull the right strings,
Then your submissiveness it brings.
If being naïve and gullible,
Then you are very edible;
For the devil to devour,
Tasting real sweet and not sour.
Everyone who does declare,
Will also be able to share;
Of Christ becoming human,
Because of God showing His plan.
But someone who is not able,
Then they are never capable;
Of telling you about the Word,
For they have never really heard.
The Spirit has come to this world,
As we witness the plan unfurled;
Just as the same for the antichrist,
Who wishes you to be enticed.
But the battle fought by the Son,
Claimed victory and has been won;
You already belong to God,
If you give Him honor and laud.
So it is part of history,
That you have won the victory;
Over Satan and all your foes,
That in Jesus they do oppose.
