The Unforgivable Sin

A man on the edge of a cliff
Worries about people on the plane

A situation not unlike those
Of modern day Christians

Oblivious of the imminent danger
If not already falling

Not because lack of effort
Nor lack of sincerity

To love everyone
Like their own selves

Not because of arrogance
Nor lack of faith in salvation

By grace
And not by works

No
Certainly not for sure

But because they lack
The strength and courage

To keep the word of God
In face value

And continuously seek
To redefine what sin is

Unable to proclaim sin
As sin

Unable to shout from the streets
From the roof tops

The sins of this world
Instead letting the sins

Exposed in broad daylight
Proclaimed world wide

Shouted with megaphones
Amplified thousand fold

Until they are no longer
Sins of this world

But a proud badge of honor
Worn proudly without shame

Yes for non-Christians
Nothing is considered sin

As sin can only exist
In the presence of God

But for Christians
The unforgivable sin

Is not the sin itself but
Redefining what the sin

Truly is in the presence
Of almighty God
