Followed Not God Poem by Bob Gotti

The Lord God supports Believers, but not the many pagans at large,
Those who tend to follow deceivers, and unbelief will be their charge.
They had not believed or followed, Jesus Christ, who’s Lord over all,
But have only spiritually wallowed, in the deceit left from Adam’s fall.

Many gripped in humanistic views, from what fallen people proclaim,
Then rejecting God’s Good News, never embrace The Savior’s Name.
The simple fact that goes denied, of why those men spiritually stray,
Is indeed their religious pride, promoting them to want their own way.

Pride was also Satan’s big mistake, when he served The Lord above,
It was pride that led him to forsake, The Creator’s care and His Love.
And facing eternal darkness now, Satan prompts the lost to engage,
In all the spiritual whys and how, so they too see God’s eternal rage.

Friend, it is that pride in everyone, indeed, everyone upon this earth,
That keeps them from God’s Son, accepting from Him second birth,
A spiritual birth, into God’s Truth, through His Blessed Gospel Light,
Saving men from eternal reproof, as He saves them out of the night.

Many are on that slippery path, the same one which the Devil chose,
And they too shall see eternal wrath, which is how their ending goes.
These men may desire to be God, however, God they shall never be,
But, will face Christ’s Iron Rod, and be separated from God eternally.
