Baal

Baal Written by Catherine Reinke Ancient sources tell us of one old God forbidden from all others, Yahweh declared he, from the sun, named him Baal. His ceremony enticement many could not resist, believe one God only’ certain may this one. Each morning clockwork He would arise feeding nourishment they and plants alive. Not only life give’th He in sun’s magnificent glory how few could understand why Yahweh to war went with Baal. Fought in heavens sky for power supreme complete resistance forces fought immense until victory found when Yahweh produced his demon fail. Destruction of our earth, when Yahweh flood waters sent. Save select few , Noah and they in his arch rescue set omnipotent God sail. Declared… drown the followers of the sun! Yet ,rise each morning Baal still won. Today from the watery grave they have risen those who worship all that Baal The Sun has given. Plead we now, no more destruct us for such love condemned to wait return of the arch homeless dove . Mend your rivalry Yahweh with Baal, we pray that in service both, in gratitude and love we may.
