Clear?
Burn your plastic Jesus!
Burn your plastic Jesus
Your social worker for the poor
A political crusader, who won’t question your behavior
Who doesn't rule as Lord of lords
He’s your presidential slogan
Your bumper sticker God
Who wants to make you happy
With your BEST LIFE NOW
Oh burn your plastic Jesus
Burn your plastic Jesus
He’s got no power, got no real love
He’s got no cross that he bled and died on
He’s got no tomb that he broke through
Burn this plastic Jesus … he’s just as plastic as you
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you
in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—
not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you
and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven
should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you,
let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again:
If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received,
let him be accursed.Galatians 1:6-9
Jesus Christ has brought us from:
Error to truth
Darkness to light
Death to life
Sin to righteousness
Wrath to peace
Alienation to reconciliation
Enemies to brethren
Judgment to mercy
Disobedience to discipleship
Uncleanness to repentance
Lust of the flesh to walking in the Spirit
Futility of the mind to the mind of Christ
The old man to the new man
From fools to wise
From works to grace |
