Yo, devil, I’m not drinkin’
the Kool-aid that yer servin’
Tryin’ to stir dissension
among the beloved brethrenSeven point Calvinist

sittin’ kinda prettySix points, five,
four, three and two and oneBut it ain’t the points that save,
it’s the only begotten SonYo, devil, I’m not drinkin’
the Kool-aid that yer servin’
Tryin’ to stir dissension
among the beloved brethrenI”m receivin’, I’m lovin’
each and every onethe blood-bought, the redeemed
for the sake of God the SonSharers in one Spirit
We all call our Father, AbbaWe drink the living water
We call each other brotherYo, devil, I’m not drinkin’
the Kool-aid that yer servin’
Tryin’ to stir dissension
among the beloved brethrenOne Body, yet diversified
perfectly joined, of one mindYou scheme, you plot, you prowl
awaiting every opportunityTo get a foothold in
this bless’d Christian communityDarkness slips in like an angel of light
you work envy, divisions, jealousy and strifeYo, devil, I’m not drinkin’
the Kool-aid that yer servin’
Tryin’ to stir dissension
among the beloved brethrenIs the Lord Christ divided?
Are we not all one in Him?Holy Spirit enlightened me,
led me back into all truthaway from your devilish confusion
free from your tangled web of subtle liesHe’s given me Christ’s power,
He’s given me Christ’s mindWilling to submit, to serve,
resurrection power to be kindFreely accepting my brothers and sisters
as He does to the glory of God our FatherLord Jesus, keep me ever drinkin’
of the one Spirit that yer servin’
Tryin’ to stir up love and good works
among Your beloved brethren

What if I don’t like Kool-Aid?
We’ve been fooled before, thinking that the devil’s Kool Aid was a spiritual drink. Things like infighting, pride, “spiritual”air of superiority, exclusiveness, judgmentalism. Sickening. Makes one spiritually SICK! No thanks, devil. No more!
@llamalima - lolol
Well then, I guess you have no worries, right?
@quest4god@revelife - Heh. Love that mini.
Forgot about that one. A “spiritual drink” – that’s exactly it; the devil makes it look “spiritual.” That’s part of the temptation/attraction/deception, isn’t it?
@deerlife - Yes, very subtle…that’s his rep. Once we begin to think more highly of ourselves than we ought, it just seems that we are “more enlightened.” Poison!
