No Buts about It!

“He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.”  Psalm 15:3

Why is it that we say we are Christians and don’t follow what JESUS taught us?  It is easy to fault the one next to us. It is easy for us to condemn, even though we know it is contrary to what the Word of GOD teaches.

It is easy for us to judge but when we are caught in the midst of it somehow we like to wiggle out of it by making excuses.  There is never an excuse to ignore GOD’s Word.  If the LORD says don’t do it, He means don’t do it!  I wish I had a nickel for every time I heard someone say, “But”!  Like they are different and GOD wasn’t speaking about them because of their situation!  But! There are no buts about it! 

Who is the he that pleases the FATHER?
He’s the one that speaks kind of another!
His lips are sealed from dialog that harms!
To the one that hears, he definitely charms!

Who is the one that pleases the SON?
He’s the one that ceases to do evil!
His heart is fair and he really does care
And in him there is no upheaval!

Who is the one that pleases the SPIRIT?
He’s the one that doesn’t reproach his neighbor!
He is not there to criticize or ever to judge!
He’s powered by love and never carries a grudge!

“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.”  Matthew 7:12
