THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT?"
Did Jesus use a modem,
At the Sermon on The Mount?
Did He ever try to broadcast fax,
To send his message out?
Did the disciples carry beepers,
As they went about their route?
Did Jesus use a modem,
At the Sermon on the Mount?
Did Paul use a laptop,
With lots of RAM and ROM?
Were his letters posted on BBS,
At Paul@Rome.Com?
Did the man from Macedonia,
Send an E-mail saying "Come?"
Did Paul use a laptop,
With lots of RAM and ROM?
Did Moses use a joystick,
At the parting of the sea?
And a Satellite Guidance Tracking System,
To show him where to be?
Did he write the law on tablets,
Or are they really on CD?
Did Moses use a joystick,
At the parting of the Sea?
Did Jesus really die for us,
One day upon a tree?
Or was it a hologram,
Or Technical Wizardry?
Can you download the Live Action Video Clip,
To play on your PC?
Did Jesus really die for us,
One day upon a tree?
Have the wonders of this modern age,
Made you question what is true?
How a single man, in a simple time,
Could offer life anew? How a sinless life,
a cruel death, Then glorious life again,
Could offer more to a desperate world,
Than all the inventions of man?
If in your life, the voice of God,
Is sometimes hard to hear.
With other voices calling,
He doesn't touch your ear.
Then set aside your laptop
And modem And all your fancy gear.
And open up your Bible,
open your heart,
And let your Father draw near.
"Be still and know that I am God."
By Ellis Bush, Jr. Excerpts from his book are periodically
published in Christian Computing magazine.
