Armageddon

Armageddon Can you feel the raging storm approaching? Hear the ferocious winds scream, "It's true"? Can you see the coal black clouds descending, Concealing the bleeding Blood Moon from view? Do you smell the deadly stench of the eerie fog Hovering, smothering, The petrified - blanketed in sobbing dew? Watch the writhing of the snake as he faces battle, With The Savior of every believer, Gentile and Jew. Do you weep as the blinding lightning strikes, And Babylon crumbles in ashes to the ground? Do you tremble as Heaven opens and Jesus steps forth. Bearing scars and that thorn studded crown? Now comes vengeance in the slamming of the rains, As they create craters for Lucifer and his crew. No longer on earth to reign again. The wolves in sheep's clothes unmasked for all to view. From the eye of the Lamb tongues of flames land, Consuming the perverted, saving God's faithful and true. As fiery Hell breaks out, brutal evil is damned, Satan has met his Waterloo. The pure in heart redeemed forevermore. Trumpets sound, angels sing praises to the King, Death to Babylon, the great whore. Who desired to wear the bridegrooms ring. Lucifer, the serpent. in Hell is forever bound. For he proved rotten to the core. With a mind of a lunatic,a lascivious Hell Hound. Jealous of the robe of righteousness Jesus wore. Earth was warned but chose not to obey. At Jesus' feet they wait and weep, This is their Judgement Day. Unbelievers called it conspiracy, Assuming the truth was just folklore. Lusting after wealth, and power, they reaped Damnation and shame, They mocked the Lamb, refused His Salvation Plan, And have only themselves to blame. Engaging in filth unspeakable they scorned the Holy One, Frolicking in their abomination, Now hear Jesus shout, "It Is Done". And it was foretold long ago if one would turn from iniquity. They would be saved, avoid the scorching grave. Still they pursued what to God was Blasphemy. The truth Evangelists told brave and bold, It was foolishness to their ear, Now they suffer forever awake in the dark lake, Of the fire, condemned for all the wickedness they held dear. Jesus, has always been the Alpha and Omega The beginning and the end, The Faithful and True, the King of Kings , The Lord of Lords, And all were warned time and time again.

What an epic and powerful sermon of a poem, Joan! Intricate in it's expression and God's warning of judgment at its core. A 7 from me.
