The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; Romans 1:18?, ?21?-?23?, ?28?-?30 NIV As from time as we know it God's wrath is being revealed In our own foolishness and unknowingly Deceitful ways trying in own works Myself,was blinded by this world teaching Only revealed through Christ That this all begins to make since To begin to understand this world One shall begin within His word This world is not teaching the truth For none are good not even one Until Christ promised spirit Buries the old self in baptism Then a new creation is formed That escapes the wrath in these times As releasing His presence from one. Without God holding back the darkness The world would become man of beast As we are seeing more and more The world blames God for their own foolishness And sinful lust and desires Only to be cast out by Christ Revealed in that day of death Or beginning to be revealed In that day Christ buries the old self In dying daily so His spirit might reign Manifesting the hidden mystery Myself, am not writing to judge any But to bring awareness of the source. For, God could have thrown me And left me in captivity of the bottomless pit, But one day when I opened His word And His spirit was drawing me Life changed within, In my weakness I could follow the world And blend in with it in deception But through His strength this new source That was an overwhelming joy and peace Was now fighting my battles I was now having to go against all I had known Sadly, I see this world exact opposite Of what God sacrificed His Son for But it's in His plan That we must seek the Spirit Which raised His Son unto glory This comes from the Spirit from Christ To snatch one from the bottomless pit. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Romans 8:9?-?11?, ?19?-?21?, ?31?-?32 NIV

Sadly, the world wants nothing to do with God, it is considered to be a mark of great intelligence to erase God and we replace Him with our minuscle egos Poet are godheads They know it all? Christians are looked down upon as are Jews.I only hear of prayer when someone is sick or passed on..so the beast has set foot massively, ..the LGTBQ movement is heinous and will cost many souls! Plus putting poets on pedestals ….insane. Pangie xx Thank you, Pangie
