We have a mighty God who became poor and bruised.

What do not have is an excuse. 

We have the Holy Spirit inhabited for God’s own use.

What do not have is an excuse. 

We have a sure resurrection, the power of death diffused.

What we do not have is an excuse. 

We have the Words of Life, the greatest of news.

What we do not have is an excuse. 

That is why I write to you this insisting issuance

that you might lead with great prudence to a world full of darkness

may we be a holy nuisance
