Christians Ought Not Cuss

There are words in the English Language
Which are taboo.
Christians ought to avoid those words.
However, when dealing with Genocide
Ought I refrain from saying "Shit"?
When appraising Jesus' situation
They believed he was a Bastard.
I do not know the other instances where I cussed.
However, I am not a Christian author.
I am a secular author
Dealing with Christian themes.
I write Science Fiction and Fantasy.
I am a prophet like Jane Austen or Leo Tolstoy---
Or John Bunyan or C. S. Lewis.
Christians, I do not expect you to understand my role.
There is just a place for my writing and my ministry;
Some people need hard answers.
And I provide them.
I do not say you ought to emulate me.
Please do not.
Rather, just understand me as a writer.
I’m a Christian---
I’m a Prophet---
However, some prophets
Have a mission which secludes them from ministry.
I have a criminal record,
So I cannot be a pastor.
Rather, I am an evangelist
And you’ll find I bring many to Christ.
I’m an enigma;
I draw people in with my words
And they become chastened.
For I live an example of a chaste life;
And my chastity is my ministry.
My words are merely intellectual things
Meant to answer burning questions;---
Do not place me in Christian literature.
Do not call me a Christian Author.
Rather, call me an Author;
Call me a Christian.
I do not want you emulating me.
Rather, I have a ministry to those like me;
And there are many more than you’d like to know.
And those, I will leave bread crumbs to the LORD’s house.
You shall take them, when I am finished with them.
Rather, I’m an ecclesiastical leap.
