Did Jesus use a modem,
At the sermon on the mount?
Did He ever use a broadcast fax,
To get His message out?
Did the disciples carry beepers,
As they went out and about?
Did Jesus use a modem,
At the sermon on the mount?
Did the Apostle use a laptop,
With lots of RAM and ROM?
Did he use an email alias
Such as Paul at Rome dot com?
Did the man from Macedonia,
Post an email saying “come?”
Did the Apostle use a Laptop,
With lots of RAM and ROM?
Did Moses use a joystick,
At the parting of the sea?
And a Satellite Guidance Tracking System,
To show him where to be?
Did he write the law on tablets,
Or are they really on CD?
Did Moses use a joystick,
At the parting of the sea?
Did Jesus really die for us,
That Friday on the tree?
Or was it just a Hologram,
Some high-tech wizardry?
Can you download the video clip,
To play on your PC?
Did Jesus really die for us,
One day upon a tree?
If in your life, the voice of God,
Is sometimes hard to hear.
With other voices calling,
His doesn’t touch your ear.
Then set aside laptop and modem,
Unplug the fancy gear,
Open up that dusty Bible,
And talk to Him in prayer.
