Oh Preacher
Preachin'
Oh Christian!
Oh Christ!
How can one be loving
While you are beating others with
The Jesus stick!?
Abuse is abuse
And it's never love when you
Don't respect the ones you say you love
As you strike them across the cheek
With line and verse.
I'm sure that's not the love
God had in mind
When he said
What ever you do to the least of them
You do to me…
If that's true
Then would Jesus approve
Of you misrepresenting him?
Since he is supposedly unfathomable?
If even the least of them
In this world ARE Jesus
Then who are you to preach to Him?
Instead ask him,
In every guise,
How you may best serve her.
Servants of Christ,
Act Christianly,
So that words and deeds
Uplift,
Not beat down,
With the bible 2 x 4,
Abuse is abuse…
And respect is respect
And the two cannot be confused,
You can't know better than God
And if every human being
Is Jesus in disguise,
Then who are you
To preach to Her?
Love him
Hug her
Serve them as you would
If the one you profess
Was in every soul you meet.
Perhaps then
We would listen more
If we knew Jesus was in disguise
We'd quit preaching
And listen to what God has to say instead…
