    THE ORDERS

    THE ORDERS Hang on I’ll put the orders in and don’t forget the payment the goodies aren’t delivered till we’re wearing righteous raiment My self inflated ego friend insists on fair exchange as if it can, without a hitch deliver in the range Now don’t forget my old mate Billy his...

    Discernment

    Outta Line The sin I'd tasted, tasted fine until I'd heard I's outta line come follow us, ‘twas said with glee be ‘sanctified’ and you'll be free Some time went by as I observed and what appeared was kind’a curved that wretched splinter, I'll be frank turned out to be a hardy plank Now as...

    Discernment

    As a child I was given a sheet of paper with many dots. I was also given a pencil and asked to join the dots. Although it was not stated, the idea was to finish up with the author of the dots intended picture, lets say a rabbit. It would not be possible to come up with the intended picture if I...

    The Hour of Temptation

    The context is unambiguous. The temptation is to give up your CROWN before the grand finale of his return. Vs 11 'I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have so that no one will take your crown' It is the crown of which Paul refers to is our most precious faith. Treasure needs guarding. If not...

    BABYLON

    I imagine it represents everything dysfunctional, particularly the desire to and control of others.

    The Rapture Lie

    Cont.... will take time. It tells us all the tribes of the earth will mourn because they will see him. Yes, he'll be visible globally Nothing secret here! In fact, a very public event. I imagine the wicked at that time will witness Gods people being resurrected and changed as well as caught up...

    The Rapture Lie

    From the inception of the biblical story has God done anything in secret? Has he not revealed his moves regarding his plans in advance? Jesus at his trial reiterated this sentiment. I have always spoken publicly he said and in secret done nothing. When Jesus returns it will be the realisation...

    What gospel did Jesus preached?

    Ahhh yes, who knows of God's Kingdom? I'm certain we know about mans kingdom or is that open to question? I ask myself as I observe mans kingdom of which the lynch pin is lack of integrity with self the centre of all endeavours even theological discourses. How is it that Jesus used the...

    BABYLON

    Ahhhh Babylon! that gratifying city of the senses leaving the soul bereft. Company men ply her marketplaces, anonymous, without responsibility the justified cover for vice and power. On the run relentlessly gouging for approval and money the hand played for millennia, covert, overt. It’s...

    The Slippery Beast

    THE SLIPPERY BEAST The slippery beast with many faces is not so easily caught he’s in behind the hidden things illusion is his art He’s actually not so little he’s bigger than Ben Hur in confidence and great disguise respect; that’s how he works Identify and flush him out ‘cause if he’s...

    For now we see through a mirror in a riddle

    This is my persuasion also and incidentally, Jesus making as if he would have passed them by as they toiled says to me that God does not impose. He comes near, he encourages and waits for an invitation. I'm sure I can learn something here.

    Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy

    oops, that was meant to read the other way around as in 'It is men who have substituted the commandments of God for the commandments of men. :)

    Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy

    Isn't it interesting how Jesus says he is Lord of the Sabbath? Do you think that statement might be connected to the fact that he was the creator? I wonder if in giving his commandments at Sinai He might have had a blonde moment and didn't really mean the fourth commandment? at least not for...

    Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth

    This expression 'rightly dividing the word of truth' I am certain any believer would approve of even those who have a diametrically opposed view to ones own. I think however that it is overstepping its intent to make it the catch cry of a particular theological view.

    COFFEE

    COFFEE Drugged and bouncing with the beans City life with all its scenes Screaming as life passes by Hoping it will satisfy Up at dawn and down the hatch Midday break and more to match As the evening’s sure to follow So will be another swallow Fill our heads with quaint distractions Join a...

    The Return

    Yes. Symbols paint pictures that words often find difficulty to express and for our joy and dare I say sanity will, as you say, endure.

    The Winepress

    I hear what you are saying Stranger yet I do not find your explanation persuasive. The reason you give for Jesus not quoting the full text in Luke 4:16-18 are his reasons and not the ones you superimpose upon him. Isa. 61 covers both aspects of God's duel salvation story (justice and mercy)...
