Christ died to kill sin
So that we could become
One
With Him
In Him
For Him
As He and the Father are
One
All creation
Longs for that
Intimate Communion
To be Other
Yet Loved
Yet only in Christ
And His death on the cross
Can we truly be reconciled
For to become
One
We must first become
Other
We must form a Self
Before we can deny it
Like the prodigal
We must first know
Not-God
In order to truly
Know
Appreciate
Understand
Value
Cherish
Recognize
God
Yet to know
Not-God
To un-know
God
Is to know
Sin
Death
Deception
Division
We must un-know
Our un-knowing
We must un-Self
Our Self
We must un-live
Our un-life
We must die
With Christ
In order to be raised
With Christ
One
With Him
Forever
