The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.” – Acts 10:15
Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right. You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, announcing the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all. – Acts 10:34-36
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace. – Ephesians 2:14-15
“I hate, I despise your religious festivals;
your assemblies are a stench to me.
Even though you bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings,
I will not accept them.
Though you bring choice fellowship offerings,
I will have no regard for them.
Away with the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream!”
– Amos 5:21-24
Go Tell The Earth To Shake
Go tell the earth to shake
And tell the thunder
To wake the sky
And tear the clouds apart.
Tell my people to come out
And wonder
Where the old world is gone
For a new world is born,
And all my people
Shall be one.
So tell the earth to shake.
With marching feetOf messengers of peace,
Proclaim my law of love
To every nation
Every race.
For the old wrongs are over
The old days are gone
A new world is rising
Where my people shall be one.
So tell the earth to shake
With marching feet
Of messengers of peace
Proclaim my law of love
To every nation
Every race.
And say
The old wrongs are over,
The old ways are done
There shall be no more hate
And no more war
My people shall be one.
So tell the earth to shake.
With marching feetOf messengers of peace,
Proclaim my law of love
To every nation
Every race.
For the old world is ended
The old sky is torn apart
A new day is born
They hate no more
They do not go to war
My people shall be one.
So tell the earth to shake
With marching feet
Of messengers of peace
Proclaim my law of love
To every nation
Every race.
- Thomas Merton, based on Isaiah 52
