lirik lagu membership – stephen the levite

v.1
this is written for long*term visitors
non*committers who get the word but never get to work
at least not in conjunction with a church
they stay away and say they afraid of getting hurt but
pain is never excuse for disobedience
church wasn’t created to cater to your convenience
and god didn’t give you gifts to be greedy with
mission without the church is missing the main ingredient
i know i rushed in without much of an introduction
but membership is what we’re discussing
committing to a community through a covenant
and doing the one*another’s in scripture with brethren
membership
it actually happens at salvation
but practically it happens in active partic*p*tion
if one is effect and two is the demonstration
for the maturing christian nothing should separate them
if one is the truth then number two is the proof
if it’s aloof then number one is a lion without a tooth
if not the elect, who’s inspecting your fruit
just a select group of heads from your crew?
that’s not a test dude
it’s more like a bad science experiment
with no control groups in the lab and lying experiences
it’s foolish to laugh, denying is serious
when the only proof that you have is kinda mysterious
this may be bold to say
but if you’re not a part of a church
how do you know you’re saved?
the chances are you’re probably not a bit
the objective evidence is saying the opposite
a body without biblical membership is sick
and the health depends on us getting it
so though you claim to be in it kid
please consider this
if you is, then show us how you living it?

v.2
we live in the days of the consumer
shopping’s a coveted sk!ll and bloggers write reviews up
no one commits, people leave when they choose coz
ain’t n0body tryna be tied down with too much
labor only lasts as long as your passions
cats dip, saying they feel bad with no sadness
they want that good stuff without the attachments
like friends with benefits of the ecclesial fashion
playing the church like the girls that you date
then you criticize her like you’re seinfeld or satan
you sit in the back making your accusations
but you ain’t willing to aid in her sanctification
i know that i’m getting a little hype but
you gotta understand the church was purchased by christ’s blood
and if levi got jealous for dinah (genesis 34)
of course the levite’s gone be zealous for the bride cuz
we see that haggai and zechariah were willing
to work with israel, not just prophesy stuff
you can check for yourself in ezra 5:1
and wrestle with verse 2 until you’re ready to die
i didn’t stutter, you heard me right bro
dying is the price for being up in the cypher
it’s all or nothing, cats are putting their life up
but you be isolated like you don’t even like us
v.3
membership is not a check in a box
or an altar call response when the sermon is hot
it’s privileges bought with his blood on the cross
and it separates the flock from the world that is lost kid
membership is being a part of the body
but how can you be a body part when apart from the body?
and furthermore how can you possibly think it’s godly
when god is 1 or even 3*in*1 but he’s not 3!
i know the reality’s universal
but practically it has to be tangible to the world too
so how do we gather these further virtues
when our anatomy has been scattered throughout the earth dude
the local church has entered the picture
the form of the assembly most mentioned in scripture
this is who you were given spiritual gifts for
to voltron with the squad and add your st**z to the mixture
to offer the tools used to fixed you
iron sharpens iron, sparks flying it’s sick stuff
but don’t try to punk out when it gets rough
satan’s like a roaring lion trying to vic you
he’s waiting for you to faint when it gets tough
straggle at the back of the flock and you might be his lunch
or maybe you’ll prove you were never his bro
1 john 2:19 homie you with us?
