"I'm Not Duped" [Module#383]  (John 13:18-19)

I often wonder if he knew
That Jesus was clued in;
He was, of course, as seen in text,
“I am not taken in”.

In that He said, “You’ll make out fine,
Don’t sweat the Judas-move;
Look to yourselves, the night is long,
And Satan’s out to prove –

“You all are fake; will run away
And leave me in the lurch;
In part he’s right, but in the end,
He cannot smash my Church.

“ ‘My church’? Why yes, ‘ek-klesia’
To ‘call out’ from the pack
The ones who wish to shift their home
To Kingdom, not look back.

“You’ll get to the point, look to yourselves,
And ponder on this note –
You each were giv’n by God to me
I did not get a vote.

“So, ragamuffin-band of Mine,
Don’t think you’re all that great;
The night is young; the bar is high;
On end-results let’s wait.”

Thanks Lord for this.
