Time to Come Out of Lo De’ Bar…
Poem by Marion Jones
Sermon title by Pastor Aaron James
In this place, you just have church folks, people who claim to be one thing and are another.
Drinking and dancing on Saturday night, but on Sunday morning can’t get out of bed to come to church with the others.
Sometimes you forget where you are at and let your guard down, the real you show up.
You know the one that likes to act like thugs/harlots in the street and cuss.
Church folks
You wonder why you’re going through what you’re going through.
Always can’t blame it on the devil for the things that you do.
Children learn their behaviors; mock the parents who act loose and wild.
Then come into church asking for prayer when their family in trouble with the law, on drugs, pregnant, another out of control lost child.
Our church folks
Putting on a front while you around the saints like you all that, the Pastor is about to set your soul on fire and make you lean back.
Jumping up and down, putting on a show for everyone to see.
Looking around to see who looking at you, God knows who walk is real and He’s not pleased.
Come out from those people and sit at the table that God has prepared for you.
He’s calling us all one by one, to live holy, righteous and to Him be true.
…Why?
It’s time
For everyone who is ready and able, you are being called by the King to come to the table.
