ALL OF US
Have Become As One Who is Unclean
[ceremonially as leper],
And All Our Righteousness--
Our Best Deeds
Of Righteousness and Justice--
ARE LIKE FILTHY RAGS
Or a Polluted Garment.
We All Fade as a Leaf,
And Our Iniquities, like the Wind,
Take us Away
[Far from God’s Favor,
Hurrying us to Destruction].
[Lev. 13:45; 46.]
(Isaiah 64:6, AMP)
Realize, that what Isaiah Speaks of Here,
Is True of All the Best Deeds of Mankind;
THEY ARE ALL LIKE FILTHY RAGS
Before the Living God.
And the only Thing
That Changes that Reality,
Is That which is Done
In and For Christ Jesus,
By His Spirit.
That is why Mankind
Is in a Perpetual State
Of Chaos and Conflict.
That is why Christ Came,
Because Mankind without Him,
Is Hopeless and Helpless;
Lost in Sin.
