It is better for one man to die.
Than for the whole nation to be destroyed.
And so we are prone to lie.
As we find our own beliefs foiled
Help free me .
From someone challenging my belief.
Keep me free.
As I let them find their own relief.
Calm my anger.
As St Jerome learnt to do.
I have a saviour.
He is there for the many and the few.
Neither the end nor the means were justified.
By his death he became our true guide.
…….
If it takes one man
To die for all of mankind
That still is enough
……
See John 11: 45-56
