In all bible studies, celebrations, meetings, teachings, etc. I am thinking many times:
Tons of theory but the important part of the reality in our life seem to be missed.
Many times I stand inmidst of opposite doctrins and only pray that this people would not fight and judge against each other, but come into unity in real love towards each other.
Is it not written you should love one another?
ישוע (Yeshua) lived that – I wish I would be able to do the same.
Not so easy though but by His grace at least I am willing to do my best.

Lyrics:
1.
I am not a teacher or professor of the Word
That isn’t a gift that God put in my bag
I’m just a simple man with the question of a lover…
Before you be pointing your finger at a brother
Who is standing on a hill with another point of view
Living his part in the Story,
(is he pointing… is he pointing… is he pointing at you?)
2.
I don’t have the understanding of a great wise man
Or a lot of knowledge about what is right or wrong
In your life, since we’ve all eaten from that Tree in the Garden
I’m just a simple man who lives each day by grace
And I’m asking you a question, that is in my own face
When we stand before the throne with our brother at our side
That we rejected or mistreated, Oh… Oh… Oh what a big surprise
That we were both right, both wrong, in our different ways…
Two small pieces in the puzzle of the Ancient of Days
Refain
Think before you speak, ask before you judge
If your lips are like fire and your thinking like fudge
Sit down in the ashes of mercy and pride
And imagine there in Heaven who just might be by your side
3.
I can’t understand a lot of things in the Bible
Maybe even less than most people in this world
I am just a simple man – simple man – a lover of Yeshua
Who’s longing for the day when He’ll be coming back to us
And He’ll take me to Heaven – He’ll take me to Heaven,
to the wedding He will bring me
To my eternal home where the angels are singing “HalleluYah”
And I’m asking you this question when you study that Book
Are you mostly just concerned about how you look
Repeat Refrain
Think before you speak, ask before you judge
If your lips are like fire and your thinking like fudge
Sit down in the ashes of mercy and pride
And imagine there in Heaven who just might be by your side
4.
And will you need all that knowledge that is feeding your pride
When you stand face to face with the Truth and the Light
I am just a simple man, who didn’t know that much
About even who I am, who HE is, but I trust
That my name is written there, in the Book of Life
And I’m asking you the question, is your name inscribed
In that book in Heaven, in that Book of Life?
Question:
Is your name inscribed… is your name inscribed,
your name inscribed in the book of life
Is your name inscribed in the book of life???
Repeat Refrain
Think before you speak, ask before you judge
If your lips are like fire and your thinking like fudge
Sit down in the ashes of mercy and pride
And imagine there in Heaven who just might be by your side
5.
I prefer to fill the house with the Fire of Love
Then to burn my ideas into everyone’s head
Yeah, the strongholds of God’s enemies I’d rather destroy..
Deliver precious souls- and fulfill His joy
Think… think… think.. think about
Refrain Final
Think before you speak, ask before you judge
If your lips are like fire and your thinking like fudge
And I’m asking you the question, is your name inscribed
In the book in Heaven, In that book in Heaven,
In that book in Heaven, in that Book of Life?
