Friend, are you a CINO faithfully, being a Christian in name only?

Christianity they don’t profess, as The Spirit they don’t possess.

Some, may dare profess a faith, never touched by God’s Grace,

Grace that when it’s received, changes hearts that have believed.



True faith’s more than knowledge of, The Lord who reigns above,

But, a faith that brings to earth, God above, through a New Birth,

Spiritual Birth, bringing into life, as Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,

Who moves upon this earthly sod, in all who truly belong to God.



There are CINOs in every church, weekly in their pews they perch,

Hearing the Word week after week, but His Truth they never seek,

And in their pews they do remain, with a heart in need of change,

Sitting there as they always have, using their faith as just a salve.



So they leave their house of faith, not changed, by God’s Grace,

Still being who they were before, they entered in a church’s door,

And back into their week they go, with very little change to show,

To those on life’s Broader Way, with whom they work day to day.



So all Christians, in only name, can cause Christ hurt and shame,

By their actions, make no mistake, for their benefit, not His sake,

When you see a Godless testimony, it may just be, in name only,

Not a True Christian, please know, but simply a professing CINO.
