Nothing Conventional About Christianity?

Nothing Conventional About Christianity?


It was on the day of Pentecost
That the Spirit created the Church
Fifty days following The Holocaust,
Upon that sacrifice, its perch.

Then was delivered to all
The unchangeable deposit of faith
Once given, we “tremble to forestall”
This mystical state, not a wraith.

The steadfast person, we are told, in trial
Is blessed by God.
But a wavering faith beguiles,
And alters the path we trod.

Following nuptials, two overseers meet the press,
One of the Cantuariensis archiepiscopal See
Responding to reporters as if in a game of chess,
That nothing is conventional about Christianity! 

May just well be.
