You're Seriously Deceived If... (Poem, Part 2)

(See the series here)

Please read this as a letter from The Lord Jesus to you,

A passionate message from His heart, you to Him to woo.

My prayer is that you will seriously take it to heart,

And let today be the day His New Life in you will start.

Dear _______,

(mentally insert your name)

I was born so you could be born again. 

I died a cruel death so you could ‘live’ again.

I now live to test and see what you will do,

With the Love I vividly displayed for you.

Will you open your heart and life to My Holy Word,

By Which I can open your eyes to things that are blurred?

Will you receive My Spirit to guide you through life’s walk,

And teach you to avoid devils who your pathways stalk?

Or will my sacrifice and Love you totally spurn,

And allow your desire for sinfulness to burn,

Increasingly driving us further away from each other,

Until to Me your life is a stench, a very foul odor? 

To My questions, I already know the answers, but you don’t,

But don’t ask Me to reveal them all to you, because I won’t.

To you I give freedom to explore, and then make your choice,

And in this freedom and your choice, to live life and rejoice.

To you and all, I’ve determined a day to reveal your score,

On all of my heart-mind tests, with rewards or penalties galore.

Though your answers to my questions I will not unseal,

My rewards and penalties I’ve already revealed.

I hope to you and others these will be,

Adequate incentives to follow Me,

To learn of, and live in my Love for you, so strong,

And to resist temptations that make lives go wrong.

I encourage you to look around and carefully observe,

And ponder the so-called gods many folks across the world serve.

Whether visible or not, I call them all idols.

They can’t hear or answer prayers, or offer counsels.

Yet these idols are a major stumbling block,

To their believers on whose heart door I knock.

When with idols they’re bonding, they’ll be seriously deceived,

Until the end, when before Me standing, Truth they will perceive.

So again, to you, I offer the gift of freedom to choose,

And urge you to seek to know My Truth by which you cannot lose.

Choose right and in the end, we’ll meet on happy terms.

With no concerns for hell’s eternal fires …that burn.

Signed: Jesus Christ

PS.

My Name is Jesus. My titles are Christ, Lord and Almighty.

I’m the visible image of Father God, Who is Spirit.

So-called gods of any other name is devil’s trickery.

The day will soon come when all the world will know I am …LEGIT.
