247 Seek the Way of Compatibility With Christ
Verse 1
The Pharisees charged that
Jesus defied the Old Testament
and was not the Messiah.
Though Jesus wasn’t guilty,
they nailed Him to the cross.
Christ’s returned to let truth out,
yet man would ban Him from the world
to reach heaven and gain grace.
They’d rather deny the truth
and crucify Him again
just to defend the Bible.
How can man get salvation
when his heart is malicious
and he’s against God in his nature?
Refrain
Seek the way of compatibility with Christ.
Verse 2
Though God lives with humans,
man doesn’t know He’s here.
Though God’s light shines on him,
man’s ignorance continues
about God’s existence.
When God sends man His wrath,
man denies Him even more.
Man keeps searching for a way
to be compatible with the letters
and also with the Bible,
but not a single person
comes into God’s presence,
seeking harmony with the truth.
Bridge
Man looks up to God in heaven
but ignores the God incarnate,
since He who lives with human beings
is just too insignificant.
Refrain
Seek the way of compatibility with Christ.
Verse 3
Those who seek harmony
with just the Bible and a vague God,
God sees as being wretched,
because they worship dead words
and a God non-existent
who gives treasures
and is at the mercy of people.
What, then, can they gain from God?
Mankind is too lowly for words.
Those who are against God,
who make endless demands,
and who lack love for the truth,
can they be compatible with Him?
Refrain
Seek the way of compatibility with Christ.
