The Last Bastion of Christianity


The last bastion of Christianity
Is now heavily under attack
Below there are cries of, "Bigotry!"
Just what can the Lord's side cry back?

As valiant soldiers, they were not dismayed,
"We, of the Lord, will not be defeated!"
It's His proclamation that has been made.
We offer love... His, so desperately needed!"

The answer was fierce as they were yet blind,
"We want tolerance.  Embrace what we do!
We don't need love, for we have our own kind.
We want acceptance, from God and from you!"

"As sinners, we know to not ask God to change!
And, we truly fear His coming is near!
This pricked the hearts of all within range.
It penetrated all who had ears to hear."

And for a moment the battle did cease
Until one protester rallied them up again.
"I'll not yield my heart. I'll not plant His seeds!
This is who I am, for now and in Heaven!"

"God's promises are true to those who believe.
Gender is eternal, we are all family.
In this fallen world Satan's quick to deceive,
As we submit to Christ we live life happily!"

...And thus the battle continues today.
There is one last bastion that remains.
One last wall is all that stands in the way...
Stand strong and believe in eternal gains!

I don't know why there seems to be so many more people struggling with homosexuality or transgender feelings.  But I do know this is a fallen world, we've fallen bodies and this is Satan's last push... Still it is through faith and faithful living that we find our way back. For that is the plan- for us to return to God some day. And His plan is for families.

2 Timothy 3:5 - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
