What the Bible says about light and seed

The True Light "In him, (the Lord Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world,…the world didn’t recognize him." John 1:4,9.

The Good Seed and the Weeds “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seeds in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. Matthew 13:24,25.

Falso Véu - False Veil - João Alexandre



 Translation by Jean-Louis


Quem é que pode te garantir
Que este teu jeito
De servir a Deus
Seja o melhor
Seja o mais leal
Um padrão acima do normal?

De onde vem tanta presunção
De ser mais santo
De ser capaz
De agradar a Deus
Crente nota dez
Superior acima dos fiéis

Pobre este entendimento
Que não vem de céu
Fraco discernimento
Frágil, falso véu
Tenta encobrir em vão
Teu lado animal
Luta, perseguição
Tanto desejo mau
Confusão
Divisão


Se alguém quer mesmo
Agradar a Deus
Saber das coisas
Compreender
Mostre em mansidão
De seu caminhar
Ser gentil no gesto e no olhar

E a diferença que existe em nós
Poeira vinda do mesmo chão
É somente o amor
Que nos alcançou
Graça imensa
Imenso perdão
É somente o amor
Que nos alcançou
Graça imensa
Imenso favor

Who is he who can guarantee
That your own way
Of serving God
Is the best
Or the most loyal
A standard above the norm?

Where does this presumption come from
Of being holier than thou
Of being more capable
Of pleasing God
A number 10 christian
Superior above the faithful?

What a poor understanding
That does not proceed from Heaven
Feeble discernment
False veil
 Attempting in vain to cover
Your natural side
Struggle, persecution
So much evil desire
Confusion
Division

If someone really wants
To please God
To know and understand things
Show it with meekness
 In your walk
In what your body  
And your eyes communicate

This is the difference between us
Dust coming out of the same earth
It is only love
That came down to us
Abundant grace
Boundless pardon
It is only love  
That came down to us
Abundant grace
Boundless pardon
