Judge and Jury


Luke 16:15-18

We justify ourselves in the sight of man,
But, God knows our hearts through His plan;
For whatever among men is exalted here,
To God is an abomination that is severe;
The law and the prophets were until John,
Preaching the Gospel of God from thereon;
Every person enters within so violently,
For the lifestyle living was so turbulently;
Easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away,
Than to allow any portion of a law to sway;
Anyone divorcing his wife to marry another,
From that day forward shall be an adulterer;
He who marries a divorced woman is the same,
No matter what reason or who was to blame;
Even though this is only one for an example,
As we are looking through the Holy Gospel;
All sinned falling short of God's glory,
But it isn't up to us to be judge or jury;
Only God can ever judge us on that very day,
On all the times that we have gone astray.
