There’s two sides, right and left.
Which is true, which bereft?
Who's to say? Do you know?
Both sides put on a good show.
Ins and outs, whereabouts,
Both sides instill many doubts.
Who is right? Who is wrong?
Is it written in a song?
What if not be two sides?
What if two coincide?
Two makes...
“Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. Little children...
Proverbs 21 Select Verses ESV
6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue
is a fleeting vapor and a snare of death.
7 The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,
because they refuse to do what is just.
8 The way of the guilty is crooked,
but the conduct of the pure is upright...
The enemy attacks
in many different ways.
And some of his attacks
are meant for us to sway.
He targets the naïve,
For them, he can deceive.
But he stops not with them,
But those in Christ believe.
His goal is to confuse,
As well as to abuse
The followers of Christ,
And their words to misuse...
Chapter Seven
Majority Versus Minority
May 28, 2023
I am still reading in the book of Acts. And Paul had just finished giving his defense to King Agrippa. Then the king rose, and the governor and Bernice and those who were sitting with them. And when they had withdrawn, they said to one...
“I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, with ten crowns on his horns, and blasphemous names on his heads. The beast which I saw was like a leopard. His feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The...
Chapter Two
Be Aware
May 26, 2023
“When it was day, the Jews made a plot and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. There were more than forty who made this conspiracy. They went to the chief priests and elders and said, ‘We have strictly bound...
The world is changing as enemies advance
Things that are happening not by happenstance
All is in the order just as they have planned
Prophecy fulfilling, liars they have fanned
This is not for our good, what they have in mind
Truth in the messages difficult to find
So much is deception...
In the previous chapter of Ephesians, chapter 4, we read that, as those who profess faith in Jesus Christ, we are no longer to live (in conduct) as the ungodly, giving ourselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. That is not the way we should have learned Christ. We...
So Satan’s attacks
Are now his angry whacks
Which he presses on
Those from him been long gone
Thus he testifies
Against those who love God
Now tries to get them
To bow only to him.
He nags and he picks
And he picks up his sticks
He tries convince them
Message is not from him
He wants us...
Teaming, steaming, idols gleaming,
Whirlwind, whirlwind, what’s your thinking?
Soap box! Soap box! All are actors.
Truthing, lying are the factors.
Myst’ry! Myst’ry! All is a ruse.
True objective is to confuse.
Pageant! Pageant! All are on stage,
Hoping we’ll turn the foll’wing page.
Captive...
Now these were God’s instructions to his people of old at a specific time in their history, but much of what is expressed here is repeated for us in the New Testament under the New Covenant which God now has with his people Israel (both Jew and Gentile by genuine faith in Jesus Christ), although...
Hear the whispers. Makes you think.
Mind now wonders, “What’s the stink?”
Is it factual? Makes you doubt.
Hear what’s hidden in the clout.
Preys on people who’re naïve.
Love they to make many scenes.
Who has done it? Do they know?
Or, is all this just for show?
News and Rag Mags much the same...

Now the Lord had me do a video talk on this passage of Scripture today. And most of the video talks are unscripted, i.e. I don’t know what I am going to say until I am doing the video. I just trust the Lord to give me the words to say. So rarely...
This love, in the Greek, is Agape love, a love which comes from God and is divine love because God is love. It is a love centered in moral preference and it prefers what God prefers, which is what is holy, righteous, godly, upright, morally pure, honest, and faithful. It prefers to leave our...
“Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us. For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in...
