Show me god and I’ll show you a sinner.
Show me a sinner and I’ll show you god.
I’ll make them believe they are less than me.
I’ll speak widely of duty and destiny.
Let them smack at my words of bitter taste;
I’m Divinely inspired, so take full embrace.
My power un-halted, you should fall to your knees.
You don’t deserve to look upon such glory as my face.
And just so we’re clear here—just so you see—you can do nothing except without me.
I am alpha, omega, and all that’s between.
I am the shadow in the corner of your life’s every scene.
The serpent speaks of knowledge. You need only what I say. Disregard your own senses; from “truth”, stay away.
The only truth you must know is that I love you so well that if you don’t love me back, I’ll condemn you to hell.
Eternal fire, eternal agony, eternal searing and pain. Because I loved you, and you didn’t feel the same. Soon you will feel the flame.
Its not enough just for you to love me though. You’re not doing your part unless you let others know.
Sing my name to the heavens and worship at my throne, or else, in death I’ll make sure you’re alone.
And lastly, it’s true, my power knows no bounds. I could end world hunger, but some people just aren’t worth having around.
Signed,
Your loving father.
