The plan..

How blest are those who make peace, for they will
be called God's children, & not just his pets.
Who has his surname, he calls his people,
if they will humble themselves and pray, let

his face be what they seek more than pleasure.
If they turn from their wicked ways, God planned
he'd hear from heaven (where they'll store treasure)
forgive their sins, and what's more, heal their land.

Did you know Jesus was a master build-
er, not just "carpenter" who worked with wood?
And God seemed to like what he saw fulfilled
in all his life of caring (as he could)

for fatherless and widows in distress,
and keeping himself free from this world's ways,
& God helped him to even make a mess
of many temple rit-u-als those days.

When Jesus said that he  would build his 'church',
he didn't mean a building made of stone,
or zombies centred on themselves who lurch
to play within red-tape with  sins 'atoned'.

'Ecclesia'* of "Legislative-" kind,
"-Assembly" of the people who can lead
in God's own way that loves, but is not blind,
Yeshua said against hell will succeed, ...

"and I will give the keys of Heaven to
the children who will live under my rule.
Whatever they permit, is what we'll do,
whatever they forbid will not be cool!


..........
* The English word "church" (derived from 'kirk') appears in the bible as a translation of the Greek word 'ecclessia', meaning "assembly", designed by God to be not a school meeting, but a "legislative assembly", who were to rule by serving.

Blessed are those who make peace, for they will be called the children of God. Mathew 5:9 (PM Version)
If my people, who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 (PM Version)
Jesus said "I will build my church and the powers of hell will not conquer it. And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven" Mathew 16:18-19 (PM Version)
