Today’s Shepherd
Ken Pullen  –  copyright 2011
Scripture appears in Italics and is from the KJV
Today’s shepherd
not truly founded
upon The Rock
more lost
then found
lacking discernment
since many deny; don’t
know the Spirit
Jehovah Elyon’s words
unheard
unspoken
partial perverted
sounds
found
with the spittle of
corrupted man upon them
like twisted metal
rusting in the wind
emphasis placed
along the lying lines written upon their face
their telling (false doctrine) eyes
as they thrive
upon
the
lie
bring on the money!
shine that light on me
they bellow
out another blasphemous
“Praise the Lord!”
when God’s Truth
their spirits just can’t seem to afford
since they refuse to be crucified upon the cross
as was our loving, forgiving Lord
Being in the news
more to their liking
desire to be liked
spreading their lies
rather than in the Lord’s
Living Word
do they abide
a mere token
of truth spewed
more twisting rust in the
wind
lip service a plenty
while their hearts filled
with this world
their ears stuffed with
praise for themselves
refuse to hear; know the
Spirit
speak
never taking stock
misleading the flock
turning them into a
lost stampeding herd
as they go about
corrupting
perverting
altering
God’s Living Inerrant
Word
guiding the trusting
souls
under their care
to a one-way trip
in the air
right off a cliff
plunging towards spiritual
death
“Is everybody
happy!?”
“May we entertainyou!?”
“Our next program features…”
always focusing on the
production
strike up the band
across the land
hey isn’t that a $20 in your hand?
for in the din
making noise
crescendo of
distraction
they with their
sleight-of-wickedness-tongue
their words of dung
clinging to the bottom rung
while
denying  the truth at
hand
“Enter ye in at the
strait gate:
for wide is the
gate,
and broad is the
way,
that leadeth to
destruction,
and many there will be
which go in thereat:
Because strait is the
gate,
and narrow is the
way,
which leadeth unto
life,
and few there be that
find it.
Beware of false
prophets,
which come to you in
sheep’s clothing,
but inwardly are
ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by
their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of
thorns,
or figs of
thistles?
Even so, every good
tree bringeth forth good fruit;
but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot
bring forth evil fruit,
neither can a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree
that bringeth not forth
good fruit
is hewn
down,
and cast into the
fire.
Wherefore
by their fruits
ye shall know
them.
Not every one that
saith unto me,
‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter into the kigdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the
will of my Father
which is in
heaven.
Many will say to
me
in that day,
‘Lord, Lord have we not
propheised in they name?
and in thy name have
cast out devils?
and in thy name done
many wonderful works?’
And then I will profess
unto them,
I never knew
you:
depart from
me,
ye that work
iniquity.”
