Here you will find the Poetry and Prayers that I write, and access links to the traditional Gospel songs and Hymns of the Christian Faith of which I am a member.
So, if you are in need of a place to rest and be refreshed during your busy day, please come on in for a while. You will be blessed. 1 Corinthians 3:16 - Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? ALL MATERIAL IS FREELY AVAILABLE FOR RE-USE!
4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
Fair Exchange Is Not Robbery! How, In The Name Of Him Who Is Holy, Can There Be A Fair Exchange When I Gave You Rocks That Are Diamonds And You Gave Me Rocks That Are, Errrm, Rocks!?! Don't Talk To Me About That! That Is A You-Problem! Ohhh, I See! My Bad! I Forgot, Just For A Moment, That We Were Demonstrating The Jesus And Sinner, Salvation And Sin, Savior And Saint Thing! Oh, Goodie! We Are All Caught Up! Beloved, Have You Ever Considered What It Is That Jesus Christ Has Done And Is Doing For Us When He Says "Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor And Are Heavy Laden And I Will Give You Rest!?!" Aren't You Heavy Laden With Sin!?! Isn't Jesus Christ Swapping Out Your Sin And Replacing It With His Rest As In His Perfect Peace!?! Didn't Your Sin Kill Jesus!?! Doesn't His Rest Give You Everlasting Life!?! With That Said, Dear One, Why Would You Not Give All Of Your Sin To Jesus Instead Of Crucifying Him Afresh When You Turn Back To The Flesh-Pots Sitting Down To Eat And Getting Up To Play!?! Do You Not Understand That When Jesus Christ As Savior, Surety, Redeemer, Lord, God, King, And Friend Takes Your Rocks - Which Are Of Life-Extinguishing Weight - And Gives You His Diamonds Of The First Water Aka The Fruit Of His Holy Spirit, That You Are Acquiring All Gain And Thus, Suffering No Loss!?! Beloved, Every Thing That You Give Up For And To Our Lord Jesus Is Replaced By An Imperishable Good And Perfect Gift For Which There Is No Comparison! Come Now! Since Jesus Considers Your Temporal Give-Ups As Fair Exchange For His Eternal Give-To's, Does It Not Become You To Be Wise Unto Salvation For Your Own Self, And Go All In For The Eternal Win!?! Please Don't Be Faithless But Be Faithful, Trusting Him Who Cannot Lie To Give You The New Life Which Cannot Die! Believe The Promise Of The Living Word And Accept What You Cannot Lose But Can Be Thrown Away Through Doubt And Disobedience! Please, In The Name Of The Holy Jesus, Give Up Your Fig Leaves! Peace!
... And So We Have The Question: What Is It Like In The Grave!?! The Book Of Job Has A Great Definition That Totally Answers That Question! KJV Job 3
17 There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. 18 There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. 19 The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master.
Before We Continue Just Remember That We Have An Adversary Who Does Not Want Us To Believe The Living Word Of God! Please Understand This: Satan Is Not A Man And You Are Not His Equal
But
He Ever Has ... In His Corrupt Mind The "Can't-Fail" Plan
And
He Lies
And
He Murders
And
He Spreads Deception
Like Autumn's Falling Leaves And
He Desperately Hates You
Whom Jesus Christ The Righteous Lord
Sacrificially Loves! He Tried Valiantly To Destroy Job!
KJV Job 2
4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life. 5 But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.
Okay, Brethren!
Don't Ever Forget This:
Only Jesus Christ The Lord
Stands Between Us And Certain Death
At The Malicious Hands Of Our Adversary!
Satan Desperately Wants Us To Curse God And Die And By Vindictive Choice Sin And Suffering Are His Tools To Accomplish His Dastardly Mission! By Bold Contrast Salvation And Healing Are The Domain Of Almighty God!
Almighty God Lovingly Creates!
Satan Callously Destroys!
Many Of Us Blame The Lord For What Satan Does And Refuse To See That Without The Lord's Restraining Hand To Limit Satan's Destructive Power We Would Die!
Satan Is Liar
Murderer
And
Salvation Thief!
Jesus Christ Is Truth, Light And Life ... Abundant Life ... Now And Eternal Life ... In The Fullness Of Time So Let's Stay With Our Hearts Fixed Upon The Lord Jesus And Be Ever Safe No Matter Our Present, Trying, Painful, Circumstance! Jesus Christ Always Saves ... And He Loves You So Trust His Perfect Love And Not Your Skewed By Carnal-Sight Logic! Now, On To The Other Matter ... The State Of The Dead!
A Young Lady Was Visiting Her Newborn Now-Deceased Son's Grave And I Heard The Lady Say That She Was Glad That She Had Placed Him Where He Was In The Cemetery That He Would Not Be Alone That He Would Have His Grandparents Around Him That He Would Hear The Trains Passing And He Would Have Others To Play With: My Heart Just Sank Within Me! Dear God, Please Help Us! How Much Longer, Father!?! Good Question ... And We Really Need Help! How Many Times Are We Going To Have To Have This Same Conversation!?! Are We Believers In The Holy God Or Not!?! Do We Trust The Living Word Of God Or Not!?! When Are We Going To Set Aside Satan's Fables And Trust What The Lord Of Life Has Said To Us: The Dead Know Nothing! Their Loves And Hatreds Die With Them! They No More Have A Portion Among The Living And For Good Measure Refusing To Humble Ourselves In Our Sorrow Before The Throne Of Grace And, Instead Trusting To Lying Fables To Cope With Heart Pain Is Not Going To Fix Anything! It Is Just Making Things Inordinately Worse And We Are Leaving Ourselves Open To Satanic Delusion, Deception And For Fallen Angels, Demons, Evil Spirits To Assume The Form Of Those Whom We Had Loved - Who Are No Longer In The Realm Of The Living - And To Come Into Our Presence In Their Guise! Fallen Angels Have That Unholy Power! People Better Recognize! This Is Dangerous, Devilish And It Is Placing All Who Do This Squarely In Satan's Domain And Under His Dominion! The Dead Are Asleep ... In Their Graves! Indeed! Despite Popular Conversation And Regularly Trotted-Out, Lying, Sermonizing They Are Not In Almighty God's Heaven Nor Are They In Prepared-For-Satan Hell! The Dead Are At Rest In Their Long Home In Their Dusty Beds: The Living God In His Eternal Word Has Plainly Said That This Is So! We Have A Future! We Have A Hope ... According To The Word There Is No Sorrow That Heaven That Is, The King Of Glory Jesus Christ The Righteous Our Creator God Our Hope, Help And Salvation Our Great Physician Cannot Heal! Brethren, If You Are Finding Yourselves Struggling With The Loss Of A Loved One The God Of All Grace Has Personally Invited Us ... You And Me To Come Boldly To His Throne Of Grace To Find Help In Our Time Of Need! When We Choose To Lean On Ourselves Instead Of Upon The Eternal God Holy We Become Our Own God And We Commit Sin! Please Do Not Do This: It Doesn't Help And It Always Hurts! In Truth And In Fact It Inordinately Hurts Because The Lord Of Life Has Plainly Also Said That He Will Not Share His Glory With Another So That Leaves You On Your Own: That's Not A Good Residence For A Known Sin-Weakened Human! If You Are Your Own God You Cannot Expect To Receive Help From The True And Living Holy God! Let Us Humble Ourselves And Submit Our Will And Our Way To The Lord Of Life Who Loves Us And Let Us Bid Him ... Humbly To Do For Us What None But The Holy God Can Do And That Is ... Save Our Souls! We Need To Bid Him To Be The Lord Of Our Lives! Brethren, We Are Already Being Told By Some Very Evil Physicians That The Dead Live For Hours After They Are Dead! That's A Dirty Lie! The Word Of God Does Not Support That View! We Are Being Set Up For The Grand Deception That Is Soon To Come To The Whole Earth ...! ... Satan Does What Works! Man Erroneously Believes That Man Can Control Man's Life And Wonderfully Prosper ...! ... That Serpent Satan Encourages That Lie! Man Believes That He Can Manipulate Forecast ... Direct The Outcome Of Man's Life ...! ... Satan Deceitfully Encourages That Lie! Man Believes That He Can Corral Satan As And When He Likes Because Man Is Man And Breathes So, Therefore ... He Is And ...! ... Satan Maliciously Encourages Man In That Lie With A Cruel Eye On The Prize: Soul Damnation! Brethren, Beloved We Need Our Jesus! Let's Pray!
PRAYER: Oh, Father! We Come In Faith Nothing Wavering!
This People Desperately Needs Your Help!

And
Shed Some Holy Light
Upon This Dark World Of Sin!

According To Your Will
And In Your Way
So That We May Be Saved
And Eternally Blessed!
Oh, Lord

The Precarious Position
That We Are Inhabiting! Help Us, Please To Sink Our Inebriating Pride By Giving It Up To You!
Please Give Unto Us
The Hearts Of Flesh That You Promised
Which Will Cause Us To Hear
And
To Obey Your Living Word

Please Come For Us Soon! AMEN!
Eat The Bread! Make The Connection And Witness To The World! This, Brethren Is Your Employment When You Choose To Walk With The Lord! The Bread ... The Bread Is The Word Of God Pure, Clean And True! It Satisfies The Hungering Soul And Always Blesses You! That's Bible Truth! The Connection ... The Connection Is Your Communication Your Prayers To The Lord Honest, Heartfelt, Willing! They Take You Up To The Lord Of Life And Your Urge To Sin They Are Killing! The Witness ... The Witness ... Your Witness To The World Tells The Good News To Friends And Others! It Tells Of What The Lord Has Done For You! It Encourages Them To Take That Holy Hand So That They Will Be Blessed Also And It Also Helps You In Your Walk Of Faith To Grow! When We Eat Bread Of Life We Taste And Chew And Savor! What We Savor, We Swallow! What We Swallow, We Digest! What We Digest, We Are Nurtured Thereby And Because The Word Speaks Of Confession And Repentance We Must Do Our Due Diligence And Dig Up And Cast Out The Dead Works And Fill Up On More Of What Gives Real Life So That We, Fortified, May Win Aka Emerge Victorious In The Mortal Strife! When We Pray We Acknowledge Jesus Christ As Lord And King Creator, Redeemer, Hope, Help Savior ... Everything And Trusting The Love That Will Not Let Us Go We Bind Ourselves To Him Who Paid Our Price And In So Doing We Give Short Shrift To Him Of The Demonic Device! When We Witness To The World We Cement Our Own Faith And We Give Strength To The Word That The Lord Of Life Took Our Disgrace And Blessed Us And Cleaned Us And Clothed Us Anew And Has Taken Us Into His Dwelling Where All Enduring Residents Are Grace-Filled, Heart-Holy Loving, Kind And Ever True! Full Disclosure Is The Way Of The Lord ...
Real Christians Will Really Suffer: Expect Suffering! The Light Afflictions That We Suffer Are Appointed By The Lord
And
Are For Our Eternal Good
And
For His Glory
And Should Be Patiently Borne Because
The Lord Glorious Has Promised To Never Leave Us Nor Forsake Us And
He Has Given Unto Us The Holy Spirit Of Truth
For Our Personal, Physical, And Spiritual Comfort! We Will Grow In Grace So That We Shall, In Peace, See His Lovely Face!
The Same Cannot Be Said For Those Given Over To Evil
Who Shall See Themselves In Desolation
Ruined ... Alone
Bereft Of Any Comfort For Their Wayward Souls! They Shall Never Know The Peace That Pervades The Heavenly Home!
Understand And Accept This ...
Afflictions Point Us To The Word And
Keep Us From Straying!
Trust The Lord ... Wholly! Take His Holy Hand ... Solely! Glory Awaits The Faithful ... Surely!
Suffering Spiritual Poverty Had A Need!
Sometimes He Knew It!
Sometimes He Did Not
And
Sometimes He Was Bold And Arrogant
And
For His Soul Salvation
Cared Not A Tittle
Not Even A Stingy Lil' Jot!
Growing In Grace
Is
A Humble, Obedient, True, Working Christian
Daily Cooperating With
And
Walking Humbly In The Way Of The Lord Christ
And As Such
- Glory Be To Jesus -
Is An Affront To The Rabid, Bold, Sold-Out To Sin Sinners
Who, With Gay Abandon, Imbibe Joyously
On The Teats Of The Demonic Device!
A War Was Brewing!
Battle Lines Were Drawn
And
The Plans Were In Phase Of Execution
And
All About Me - The Favorite Spawn Of Satan, The Devil
That Gross And Base-Minded, Lying, Murderer -
Was Hugging Absolute Glee In ... Absolute Glee!
These Two Were Looking At Suffering Spiritual Poverty
A Repeat Customer Of Besetting Sin
Whose Favored Menu Item Was ... Is
I Did It Again
A Famous, Famous, Real Honest To Badness
Sin-City Garage-Plate
That ... Unwisely, Wantonly, Consumed
Induces Brain Freeze, Food Coma
Rum Fits
Acidosis, Halitosis
Wandering Waywardness
Lust Of The Flesh
Lust Of The Eyes
Pride Of Life
And
Itching Ears
All The While As One Was Broadcasting That
They Were Rich And Increased With Goods
Having No Need Of Anything
When ... In Truth And In Fact
They Were Wretched, Miserable
Blind, Blind, Blind
Poor
And
Don't You Know It
Emperor's-New-Clothes Naked!
It's All Very Off-Putting!
Who Can Bear It!?!
Let's Get Down To Brass Tacks ...
Jesus Christ Paid For It All
For All O' We Aka All Of Us
And
For Perfect Love
Transferred From The Land Of Delight
To The Realm Of Needing Transformation That
Ace Of Grace, Fruit Of The Spirit
No Pride Included!
Fruit Of The Spirit
Quiet ... Never Loud, Pushy Or Aggressive
Purveys, Promotes, Promulgates
The Blessing Plan Aka The Plan Of Addition
Which Is So Exceedingly Simple That
It Blows The Carnal Mind!
The Blessing Plan
Aka The Plan Of Addition
Is
Divine
And Is The Cure For All
- Good For All - Which Protects All Takers From The Effects Of The Fall!
Let Me Tell You ...
It Would Have Saved King Saul
If
He Had Taken The Obedience Call!
King Saul Failed, Failed, Abjectly Failed
To Recognize That Disobedience
Is
A Rubber Ball
A Helium Balloon
A Lead Balloon
A Stretched Out Rubber Band Making A Terminal Decision
A Snowcone In Hell
A Leisurely, Lie-Surely, Swim In A Whirlpool
A Snake In The Grass
And
A Gluttonous Feast At A Forty-Day Fast!
Did I Hear Someone Say
Send In Balaam's Talking Ass!?!
Yup!
In Times Of War, It's A Needful Thing!
In The Camp Of The Careless
The Prideful
The Profane
The Bane Of Man's Existence
Satan, The Devil, Heart Cold
Was Pressing Black Diamonds Out Of
Practiced "White" Lies Told
And
Was As Pleased As Punch
Preparing For His Lunch Of
Those On The Libidinous, Licentious
Lawless, Loose, Liberal
No Fundamentals
Can't-Lose Sure-To-Fail
Flailing Fist In The Face Of The Creator
Godless Glory-Hound
Hell-Bound But Don't Believe It Plan!
Dear Lord, Have Mercy And Grant Us Grace!
Satan, For A Very Brief, Short, Miniscule, Moment
Happily Remembered
Piercing Jesus Christ's Hands And Feet With Those Iron Nails!
He Wished He Could Turn Back ... Time.
Satan, Angry, Raging, Menacing
Knows His Time Is Short
So He Doesn't Waste It
On Woulda, Shoulda, Coulda!
He Didn't!
He Is Damned
And
His Diabolical Plan
On The Self-Serve, A' La Carte
Dice Your Slice Of Sure Damnation
There Ain't No Second Chances
Reel' Em In Plan!
He Dearly Loves His Jesus Saves Saved-In-Sin Unholy Plan!
Satan Is The Artist
The Prince Of Sin
The Singer Who Writes The Songs That
Unwary Humans ... Greedy For Gain
Love To Publicly Sing:
They Sing For Him
But
Never A Hymn To Him Who Causes Them To Move
To Breathe
To Have Any Being!
Shame Bush For No Shame-Face ...
Ingratitude
Is
Not A Pleasing Fashion Statement
On The Strait And Narrow Way!
For The Record ...
The Devil's Army Drew First Blood!
They Sprayed Growing In Grace With
Gems Of Truth ...!
... You'd Better Stop!
Devils Never Tell The Truth!
I Beg To Differ!
But, Why!?!
Are You A Sinner!?!
Of Course, We Are All Sinners!
Isn't Satan The Accuser!?!
All Day, Every Day!
Does He Tell Lies When He Accuses You
Of The Acts Of Sin That You Know That
You Committed!?!
Oh, Dear! No!
Well, They Threw Gems Of Historical Truth!
They Threw Imprecations!
They Were Vile And Nasty
But
Growing In Grace Stood On The Rock Of His Salvation
And
He Handed Them Gems Of Living Truth
Unphased By Their Gems Of His Past Life
Of Sins Confessed, Repented Of
And
Forgiven!
His Gems Are Good For Today, Tomorrow And Forever!
Angels Were Watching Over Him
And
The Enemy Beat A Hasty Retreat!
At The End Of It All
Faith For The Day Embraced Him
Courage For The Way Wiped His Eyes
Gift Of The Lord Gave Him Pure Water
And
His Sleep That Night Was Peace And Rest!
As For The One Called Suffering Spiritual Poverty
He Had Seen It All
And Finally Edified
He Understood What He Had To Do
To Gain The Victory ... His Victory
Over His Pet-Rock Sins!
Oh, Man!
Pet-Rock Sins Are The Worst!
You Know They're Useless
You Put Them Away
But They're Always In Your Face ...!
Putting Them Away In Your Own Strength
Won't, Can't, Work!
We've Got To Give Them Up To Jesus Christ The Righteous
And
Start Working The Plan Of Addition!
If The Holy God Were Wholly Man He Would Exact Trifles And Trinkets From The Puny Human But
The Living God Is
The Eternal God Of All Grace And
Has A Special Place For All Who Choose To Be Holy, Faithful And True By Setting Aside That Which Brings A Life Of Real Disgrace!
The Living God Feels Sorrow For Those Who Choose To Walk In Their Own Way - That's Me And For You - AndHe Does All In His Power To Lead Us Into His Light Save Make The Decision For Us! We Must The Self Fight Battling Courageously With Will And Choice If We Are To Emerge From Sin's Raging Night!
Think About It ... When The Gospel ... Of Truth Is
Set Aside Religions, Religiosity And Religionists Proliferate AndAll Who Do Not Know Their Creator God Find Themselves Eating Off Any And Every Plate!
