Pharisees on social media, they brag and they boast
About all that they know, but they miss the most
Important truth of all, the truth of sovereign grace
They lack love and kindness, their hearts in a race
To prove they are right, to prove they are saved
But they fail to see, that it's not by what they've paved
But by grace alone, that we find our way
To the cross and the love, that on us does stay
Their pride is evident, in all that they do
They criticize and judge, they tear others down too
They offer conditional love, with strings attached
But true love is free, it's not something to be snatched
They've traded the beauty, of TULIP's five points
For corruption and pride, that only disappoints
Let us not be like them, let us not stray
From the truth of God's love, that shows us the way
About Brandan Kraft
Brandan Kraft is a computer programmer from the Missouri Ozarks who has been writing about the sovereign grace of God since 1997. He started with a website called bornagain.net, built it into PristineGrace.org, and has published over two hundred articles, nearly sixty songs, and a growing catalog of podcasts from his living room in Ashland, Kentucky. All without permission from anyone.
He holds no seminary degree, no denominational endorsement, and no theological credentials. He has been writing software for the same employer since 1998. He thinks in systems and believes that the sharpest doctrine should produce the widest arms.
His systematic theology, A Thought in the Mind of God, derives every position from one sentence and applies it across every domain - from ontology to eschatology, from the nature of the human mind to the nature of heaven and hell. It is available at pristinegrace.org/mind.
Brandan lives in Ashland, Kentucky with his wife Angie and their son Cole. He plays trombone in the Marshall University Tri-State Brass Band and changes a diaper twice a day on a cat named OJ who was once paralyzed and whom nobody else wanted.
