WHEN SIN IS NOT A SIN<\/p>\n

When sin is no longer a sin,
\nIs what we are seeing today,
\nGod’s Laws say it is wrong,
\nBut human laws tell us “Nay”.<\/p>\n

Each of us needs to decide,
\nWho we will choose to obey,
\nBy grace I’ll follow the Lord,
\nAnd be safe on Judgment Day.<\/p>\n

But certain foolish people,
\nStubbornly go their own way,
\nWhen they face an angry God,
\nThey won’t have much to say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
