I Will Follow Jesus Christ Only.... Poem by MBJ Pancras

I Will Follow Jesus Christ Only....



"I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life:
No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me."
The Lord's Words have Life; and Truth is His Words.
When there is the Lord, why ye seek the other impossible way?
Never will I seek the other way, for He is the Way-
The Way to the Eternity, ever with Him, timeless.


Satan in the garden of Eden thrust his philosophy into humankind,
And there conjured up countless theologies and dogmas,
The seed of lies and stories cooked up in the vessels of religions,
Shadows of darkness dragged teachers and preachers,
Weeds of politics sneaked into words proclaimed,
Corrupt interpretations revolved around the Word,
But the Word hath stood firm uncorrupt.
Friends of Satan gulped the followers of the Lord,
And robbed the treasures of followers of the Lord,
The Church fell prey into the hands of the papal governance,
In the name of celibacy, nunneries and monasteries framed,
Heavenly Command hath been neglected and negated,
It was a chaotic domain of political regime,
Worship of idolatry crept into the Lord's Assembly,
Valleys and dungeons were erupted,
Lasciviousness strolled in the political domain,
And graves were dug to bury the innocents,
Theological liturgies and unbiblical doctrines slinked into the Church,
Religious dogmas replaced the Biblical Teachings,
Doctrine of woman worship intruded place of the Lord's Worship,
Chanting of mantras with beads taught a new practice,
Doctrine of men tiptoed into the Lord's Church,
Theology of vulnerability to humankind's belief strolled into,
Philosophy of tributaries and distributaries of rivers dashed into Teachings,
Self-styled visions and tongues veiled the Truth,
Divisions and cults slithered into the Church,
Lust for Power; lust for money; lust for lewdness lifted their staff,
Doctrine of purgatory; revolting catechism enacted on the stage,
Seductive interludes mollify gluttonous hearts,
Concept of justification of human acts took its root,
Festivity rather than true worship took its toll,
Breaking the Law of God; hugging the human law,
The Pharisees and Sadducees - the handiwork of Satan
With their darkening spirit darkened the growth of the Church.



"Do not go beyond what is written; "
For God's Word is sufficient for salvation.
If any man shall add unto God's Word,
God shall add unto him plagues for destruction.
The Lord says: "I Am Alpha and Omega;
The Beginning and the End."
"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."
And ‘what is Truth? ' was the statement of jesting Pilate,
But he failed to discover Truth in the Lord,
For "I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life."


Let me look unto Jesus the Lord -
Author and the Finisher of Faith,
And seek the Kingdom of God,
And all things shall be added unto me.
For we brought nothing into this world;
Nothing shall we take with us Home.
The earth and its contents shall burn into nothing,
But the Lord's Word alone shall stand firm ever.


So, my fellow-beings, seek not the things temporal,
But seek the Eternal Kingdom of God;
And His Word shall guide thee all,
And We shall all live good to the Lord,
And seek not the praises of the humans.


I will follow Jesus Christ only,
Wilt thou all?
Shall we all?
