Today There Are People Poem by Gert Strydom

Today there are people
who with Gnostic heresy as history,
with what they see as science
wants to make Jesus Christ's salvation,
His death on the cross into nothingness

and so they try to strip God from Jesus,
making Him just a mere man,
they disregard the Holy Bible as only myth,
try to throw Christian teachings into the abyss
while they try to experience spiritual bliss.

Slowly but surely they are opening the way
for the teachings of theosophy, spiritualism
and new age into the Christian church,
are preparing the way for the cosmic christ,
pantheistic beliefs and the age-old lie
of man being like God,
reincarnating and being endless.
