Own ...

2 Corinthians 2:16 

16 To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death,

and to the other the aroma of life leading to life.

And who is sufficient for these things?

 

My own way

 

To believe what you want to believe

To judge and reach your own conclusions

In mind at least some “truth” perceived

independent from God's intrusion

 

"Truth" as defined by individual man

is subjected and situational

To decide right and wrong through self my friend

without guidance of the "True One" occasional

 

Relativistic in approach starts ruling now

God centered living moved aside

To mention absolutes raises many a brow

even in comparing the wrong from right

 

Cumulative this reasoning at slow pace

set the stage for cataclysmic proportions

To change basic principles to be seen in each face

as one excepts "death's" misguided distortions

 

A crisis of truth away from God centered view

to elevate men's perspective as fullness

Of reason and purpose … not having a clue

that without God's direction things are useless
