Hieronymus Bosch, Last Judgment triptych, circa 1482

'And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works." ~Revelation 20:12 KJV

And then [Jesus said] will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. ~Matthew 7:23 KJV
The sound of solitude Means I am now alone, Yet reminds me of my finitude And for sins I must atone. Guilt racks me like a cyclone, For the lies I have construed Lay around me like a clingstone And the shadows of hellbrewed. A creed of cruelty I tattooed Upon the armored heart I honed With every virtue I eschewed, Now I stand before my God, unknown.

You have written a reply to Revelation that lies heavy to the conscience. It is so complete in its damnation that I ruminate the words.

Thank you. Once I was lost, now I am saved. My prayer is that all come to know salvation in Jesus.
