a church cannot be built on a rug.
you know, the one we hide the inconvenient messy truth under.
a rug is not a firm foundation.
to members of the household,
to all who gander at stagnation and stunted potential,
like a band-aid for a gaping wound
was the unbearable filth hastily swept beneath a rug
to those who preferred the silence of the lamb
and that the dog would sleep
who let lies stifle the terrible swift sword--
that immortal, double-edged sword.
a church cannot be built on a rug
the casualties obscure the cost
of Christ Jesus himself
the cornerstone in whom
the whole (non mortar & brick)
structure being joined together
growsinto a ἅγιος temple in the LORD.
anyone who hears these words
and does not do them,
a foolish man.
for the fear of the LORD--
the terrible One,
is the foundation of wisdom.
see. fear. return.
*holy, venerating, reverent, sacred,
not to be profaned
from Greek ἄγος:
an awful thing.
