If God Were A Monster

If God were a monster
He would plan so well
That most of His children
Wind up in hell
Hopeless forever
Ever in pain
Eternal torment
With nothing to gain
But suffering for suffering sake

If God were a monster
He would choose a few
For eternities best
And infinite blessings
The rest
Refused
In fire and brimstone
With vengeance heaped
Upon the coals of the everlasting funeral pyre

So all would fear Him
For none could love Him
Were He such a monster
To plan such a fate
That so many would suffer
Till eternal hate
Exceed love so surely
As to boggle the mind of any soul
Longing purely for a more powerful, enduring salvation

One that could
And most surely would
Reveal Him as Shepherd
Searching for all
Until all are brought in
Every sheep in its pasture
Every goat in its stall
All made new once again
The whole creation delivered from futility

But if God were a monster
He would so endow will
And mind
With rebellion
That sending His son
To die on a cross
Would mean little to most
And less to Him
So indifferent the monster to suffering their loss

But if God were like Jesus
He would be reconciling
All by the blood of His cross
Praying dying
“Father forgive them
They know not what they do”
Then risen, declaring,
“Behold, I am making all things new,
Now write down these words, they are faithful and true”

Powerful stuff, well said!!

Vengeance Is Mine

How I long for the day
When vengeance will be mine
When you forever lose your way
My face is going to shine

Your soul I will oppress
Forever in agony
With nothing left but stress
My heart’s in harmony

Slowly I’ll cut your skin
As you scream in pain
I’ll do it over again
Just to hear my name

When you’ve lost your soul
My face will smile with glee
As your heart grows cold
More painful it will be

For I am the King of Kings
The One who gave you birth
The Ruler of all things
The Lord of all the earth

Judgment Day

Dashing your infants against the rock
I sit on my throne and I mock
All you evil creatures and your ways
For I alone am the Ancient Of Days

I will soon laugh at your calamity
No longer will I tolerate your insanity
For I am the Lord I will not budge
There will be no escaping when I judge

It comes quick so you better prepare
For the Day of Judgment is a Day of despair
Suffering and punishment will soon fall
And I will destroy you, babies and all

But not before I cause you to eat
The flesh of the infants will be your treat
For I am the Lord, I am the Rock
Dashing your little ones as I mock

Hmmm…channeling beelzebub, are we?

Just put it up because this is what God would be like if He were a monster. :smiley:
