Whose House

The building was

The House of God,

The almighty Father,

The merciful one,

Lord of hosts,

Lord of lords,

King of kings,

Prince of peace,

The divine healer,

Clearing the temple

Of evil

Forgiver of all mankind.

 

Will it now become

The home of the evil ones?

The backstabbers,

The unforgiving,

The finger pointers,

The whisperers and the

Gossipers,

The unloving.

The self righteous,

The rich Pharisees,

The intolerant.

 

Whose house will it become now?

 

Speak now or forever

Hold your peace.

Reviewed by Darkest Angel (Reader)
Reviewed on September 12, 2010
It does seem that the temple, that is the physical structure (building), is now ran by those who would be chased away; according to Christian belief, that is. Aside from our religious separatism, we still need to understand one another; we still need to look after one another the best that we can, and not set ourselves up as judges--judges erecting walls to impossible passage.
