Let no one deceive you with empty words... (Ephesians 5:6 NKJV)


Empty words from another kingdom
Try to fill our head,
Educated nothingness filling our ears
From empty women and men.

Cheating souls with empty deceit
Philosophy with no power,
Empty tradition and empty deceit
Fill airwaves that seem to be louder.

An appearance of wisdom and philosophy 
Are really empty words,
But when you see Christ and all His fulness
Their emptiness shows as absurd.

For in Him is the fullness of God
No emptiness or deceit,
For it's only by being in the kingdom of God
I'm not empty but In Him I'm complete.



Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power. (Colossians 2:8-10 NKJV)

And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. (John 1:16 NKJV)
