1. Oh my Christians!
    When did Christ become a figurehead instead of a commission
    When did my son become flatbread instead of a mission
    When did his blood become imbedded in dead prayers instead of spreading you into submission
    When did his cross become something printed on thread instead of imprinted on your vision
    Your missing the point if
    attending, seating, listening, and repeating
    is the joint efforts of your
    effortless anointing
    I don’t want to disappoint
    all those who thought
    getting baptized and being churched
    would comprise the proper work to prove your worth
    but I have searched the earth
    and when you’re not hiding in your Sunday shirt
    or your Wednesday skirt
    you look the same as every unconverted
    person who flirts with the comforts of selfishness and inverted shame
    It does not matter if you claim my name
    because the fact of the matter is that you all look the same
    The pagans the Christians
    The tainted the sinless
    The saved and the sinners
    The saints and imprisoned
    – David Bowden Jeremiah 7
