Sin

In the church dressed neatly, "quiet while the pastor is preaching! That's God speaking!" They said..... Sunday School, & revival, & 2 Sunday services was vital, kuz they said, that's the only way to survival, as we're waiting for God's arrival... He's coming back AGAIN, & ur going to hell if ur livin in sin! But they said Sin was watching a T.V., even when they ended up doing the same thing....they said Sin was wearing a man's garment....like pants, & even listening to music that caused u to dance! In a way that wasn't OF GOD & God alone...Sin was having a baby without a man in ur home.....A sin if he ain't ur husband! U see....these were the things that got etched into me... Nail polish & Jewelry to them is pure foolery.... Follow ur Pastor he'll help u get into heaven, but the one we had went astray when I was seven, or eight, or nine....however old I was, he ended up in jail for a Sin I suppose..... Or was it just a wrong decision he chose? Kuz No sir! No way a pastor can do something bad, let's cry for him & let him know that we're sad... Let's follow him even though he may lead us astray, kuz remember he's helping us get to heaven one day!! U hear what I say? Sin is drinking to get yourself drunk, Sin is being gay or as the streets say "A punk"... Sin is stealing, killing, & giving your body away willing-LY .....somebody come & PLEASE pray for me! God they told me that I'm going to hell & burn for for the rest of eternity....please wrap ur arms around me surround me..... I was in the church dressed neatly & I listened while the pastor was preaching...but a sin is a sin is a sin....u can't judge someone kuz they sin differently then you....I was a preachers kid, I'm not gonna lie to u...God forgives us daily for sins even when he knows that we'll do em again....just ask wit a sincere heart & mind in repentance... The eternal depths of hell is not guaranteed ur sentence... Just because they're in a church dressed neat, doesn't mean tht their spirit is sweet
