The Fugitive Mind

 In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
- (Judges 21:25 ESV)

Our minds are pragmatic
No thinking about the actions
Doin’ things just to do 'em
Without worrying about the tactics
Consequence be damned –
Don’t wait for the repercussions
Because truth wasn’t your idea
Why bother with a discussion?

So shut up with your fussin’
And just listen as the gears turn
“There’s so much left to do…
We don’t got time
For all that stupid learnin’?!”
Views on morality
Now become a casualty
While the heart is ever more corrupted
In a spiritually poor society

Where our ten commandments are:
Lust…Power…Capital...
Oh, yeah...we threw out the other seven
Because they just weren’t that practical
It’s a simple enough equation
Do the math and add it up
When the mind is blown
The first thing gone is:

“What the hell is truly wrong with us?!”


We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.
- (2 Corinthians 10:5-6 ESV)


Soli Deo Gloria,
Shon
