The Wild Olive Shoot Community


Once, there was a church that received a vision from God. They dared to do what no other church at that time had done. They grew, and spread across the nation. They called themselves the Blaze Community.

But it absorbed teachings from other groups, both Christian and Pagan. The vision became polluted. Rather than examining itself, the Blaze Community became proud and arrogant, standing alone as the true church, against all opposition.

The Blaze died to an ember as people left, fleeing tyranny, judgement, and forced austerity. Humbly, the Blaze Community leaders sought God's forgiveness and direction.

Now the community received a new vision. One of grace, love, forgiveness, and mercy. Aware that it had been given another chance by God, it renamed itself the Wild Olive Shoot Community, with the knowledge that God could pluck them out of the Cultivated Olive (the universal church) if they ever again fell away from the path to which God had called them.

Ubel (Evil)

I will use you and abuse you
I will tell you I love you
When I'm done, I'll shove you
Away

I am the centre, the peak, The Main Man
The Alpha, the only important one.
And you? Why should I care for you?
Unless you serve me.
Unless it suits me.

Mine is the only opinion that counts.
All I want is all I want. There is nothing else
There is no cause but mine.
My money, my ambition, my possessions, my power

I have my bonus, why care for the jobless?
I have my home, why care for the homeless?
I have my food, why care for the hungry
Take my kids, I want to party.

Scientists say you're all illusions,
Electrical sparks and chemical solutions
I exist. First and foremost
With every choice I remake the cosmos.

I decide what's right and wrong.
I make my own rules, do my own thing.
I lie, and cheat, and steal if that's what it takes
To get what I want from all of you fakes

But I can't feel,

I don't know what's real.

I want to be loved, but how can that be
When I've never loved anyone but me

I'm so alone in my universe.

Is anyone out there?
