LAW BREAKERS

by Lewis E. Thomas  
10/01/2015 / Poetry

We are by God's definition all "LAW BREAKERS" undeserving of His Grace!
The Cross of Christ paid the price for the charges that we all faced!

God's Word says we are to render unto Ceasar the things that belong!
We are "not to break the laws of the land" doing things that are wrong!

Some of us are quick to "JUDGE" our neighbor for "his" unlawful deeds!
Without looking within our "own heart" that has some serious needs!

If I break the laws of the land and "I justify it" with no guilt or shame!
Why do I want to see my neighbor prosecuted for doing the same?

Are laws that I break "more severe" than those broken by my brother?
Do I see clearly enough to be "Judge" of another?

Do I have a "BEAM" in my own eye blinding me from my own lawbreaking and sin?
As I point my finger at my neighbor's eye and the little "splinter" within?

If we try to justify our own unlawful deeds while we want to see others pay.

WE "ARE NOT" WALKING IN THAT

"STRAIGHT AND NARROW WAY!"

Scriptures against this kind of law breaking behavior!

Matthew 18:all

Luke 20:25King James Version (KJV)

25 And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.


Matthew 7King James Version (KJV)

7 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
