“God is nothing,” the self-described “dragavangelist” repeats throughout the poem, adding, “the Bible is nothing” and “religion is nothing.” In the end, he concludes God and the Bible are nothing “unless we wield it into something.”
That's 180 degrees wrong. We are nothing unless God uses us. God and the Word have been omnipotent from before the beginning.
“We are nothing unless God uses us. God and the Word have been omnipotent from before the beginning.”
Very good! I had wanted to post awhile ago and thinking that if a regular pastor had said “God is nothing if we don’t act on what we believe” it would make an okay sermon - but that didn’t sound right either! You nailed it on the head.
Even a statement like “God is nothing in your own life if you don’t act on what you believe” is incorrect IMHO. God can always prompt you even if you are ignoring Him. Like Jonah, or Moses.
