The Mystery of Faith

The Mystery of Faith

All of God's children
praying together
in splendid houses of worship..

Of course they also sin..

Many of them incessantly
which to me
is the height of hypocrisy
since so many love to preach
about the Lord's many requirements

So the unfaithful
sure can't use ignorance of the rules
as a fall back failure excuse..

So why the constant moral violations
that only serve to jeopardize
their potential heavenly reward?

This does give me reason to pause
if these pilgrims are truly all in
on the prospect of eternal salvation
which as I understand it
is sort of the end game objective
for pious true believers..

Makes me thank God
I'm a practicing agnostic..

Hello Steve...

After what I saw today...

Heightens my Faith but, not toward humanity...

People need to go to Church...

They have to wash the blood off they continue to get on themselves...

Stay agnostic...

Whatever you believe in...

The Truth always comes to light...

One day or another...

After what I saw today...

Any of my tears has turned to concrete...

It doesn't matter anymore...

It made me sick to my stomach...

God I pray for the Diller Family...

After everything they have been through...

What they did to Johnathan...

I'm absolutely sick over it...

Disgusting!!

For what is suppose to be a Christian nation the USA sure is populated with a lot of sinners...Violent or otherwise... If one truly believes in the concept of this wonderful place called Heaven and eternal salvation why does sin always seem to predominate all aspects of life? In my experience some of the most immoral people I know can quote Scripture and are in church every Sunday as if this somehow absolves their sins the rest of the week..

God how I despise hypocrites... 

Anyway, have a very Happy Easter which celebrates Jesus who in my book
was one cool socialist :)
