Achieving right balance in faith.

There can be revelation
So new they want to shout
It seems to liven Sundays
And blow the cobwebs out.
And someone said Lord speaketh
In new ways to this age.
As if the old lacked vigour
And had to yield the stage.
But Jude holds up a caution.
He watched as error grew
And saw strange men in love feasts
No telling what they’d do.
The carnal took right over
The lusts and silly talk
The hiding from repentance
The doctrines sadly mocked.
And Spirit gives the warning
A picture all should dread
How quickened eyes again despise
As fruitless trees “twice dead”.
