"Knowing"


“Knowing”

cji
10/1/17

Knowing what to do always
then never doing it at all
like planting trees in mind
visualizing doing nothing
then at the harvest picking
nothing there to pick (nothing)
creatio ex nihilo simple
nothing from nothing at all
knowing God’s will to do
doing nothing but lip service
believing but really not
faith without works done
cursed found without fruit
nourishing nothing there
never plucking of the fruit
the tree of life barren
knowing but not doing!


Alma 32:19 And now, how much more cursed
is he that knoweth the will of God and doeth it not,
than he that only believeth, or only hath cause to believe,
and falleth into transgression?
40 And thus, if ye will not nourish the word,
looking forward with an eye of faith to the fruit thereof,
ye can never pluck of the fruit of the tree of life.
