Are you authorized to use My Name?

a call to all Americans who would call themselves Christ-ian—

that they not take the Name of the Lord our God in vain.

to heed t-His command, you may not take My Name
unless you take My character, My passions, and yes-My Pain
you cannot share in the power of My resurrection
unless you also share in the suffering of My crucifixion.
if it is with anger you go out to preach My gospel to the lost
and not the love-stricken grief that compelled Me to the cross,
YOU TAKE MY NAME IN VAIN.
I did not say, They will know you are Christians by your LAWS.
I said, They will know you are Christians by your LOVE.
You dishonor My Name when you present your laws as My good news,
If these lost lambs I love and My Holy Name you continue to abuse
On the day of reckoning you will hear, Away from Me Imposter,
For, indeed, I NEVER knew you!
