TAKE NO SCRIP…

(Luke 10:4)

He sent us out among wolves

To announce His kingdom full…

But we idly stay

In churches to play

And listen with ears fully dull.

–

Too many have bought the farm,

Thinking it’ll do little harm…

Turning back from the plow*

And missing somehow,

That this is the thing He had warned.**

–Jonathan Caswell

* turning back from the plow…Luke 9:62

** (via Paul’s experience with Demas) 2nd Timothy 4:10
