DIVISIONS


RAMPLINGS AT MIDNIGHT

(UT UNUM SINT)

THE FARTHER YOU GO IN SPACE
EARTH DIVISIONS CEASE
UNTIL IT BECOMES
A BEAUTIFUL
ROUND BLUE BALL

THE FURTHER WE GO INTO GOD
ALL DIVISIONS CEASE
UNTIL
LIKE THE HYMN SAYS

IN CHRIST THERE IS NO EAST OR WEST,IN HIM NO SOUTH OR NORTH;BUT ONE GREAT FELLOWSHIP OF LOVETHROUGHOUT THE WHOLE WIDE EARTH.

OR AS PAUL SAYS
THERE IS NEITHER JEW
NOR GREEK,
SLAVE NOR FREE,
MALE NOR FEMALE,
FOR YOU ARE ALL ONE
IN CHRIST JESUS

I KNOW THAT JESUS SAYS
UNLESS YOU BELIEVE IN ME

BUT DOES NOT THE DEVOUT JEW
HINDU
BUDDHIST
MUSLIM
OR ANY OF MAN’S
HUNDRED WAYS OF WORSHIP

SEEK THE SAME BENEVOLENT GOD
THAT JESUS REPRESENTS

WHO DID NOT COME INTO THE WORLD
TO CONDEMN IT

AND HAVE WE CHRISTIANS
SET SUCH A GOOD EXAMPLE
THAT MEN ARE DRAWN
TO BECOME ONE

WE HAVE A TELEPHONE BOOK
OF CHRISTIAN BELIEFS
ALL QUOTING
FROM THE SAME BOOK




BUT CHRIST SAYS

I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE GLORY
THAT YOU GAVE ME,
THAT THEY MAY BE ONE
AS WE ARE ONE:

LET STRIFE AMONG US BE UNKNOWN
LET ALL CONTENTION CEASE.
BE HIS THE GLORY
THAT WE SEEK
BE OURS HIS HOLY PEACE.
