looking back five years ago
Two formidable contenders are battling for the crown, each making grand promises. Where do we go wrong? What wisdom does our Bible impart about speaking in tongues? It's a reality that for one to win, another must lose; that’s the essence of this game change. We know that nothing will ever be the same again.
Consider how many past competitors have kept their promises. Fool us once, shame on you; fool us twice, we can only exclaim, "Oh! Jesus Christ."
We scrutinize and observe the tricks and trades, reflecting on our thoughts as we question, "Who said what? Can they truly rise to the challenge and deliver?" Are we prepared to entrust our country to the wealthy elite, those who have never tasted the bitterness of being dirt-poor? Shouldn't we declare, "No more, no more"?
Demonstrate the truth, and we will reveal where our allegiance lies. After all, man is his own authority, wielding his clever educational philosophies. He smirks and declares, "I'll circle back to you on the real issues." You law-abiding citizens—remember, Satan is a deceiver, and so is man. We face white lies, black lies, and gray lies; everyone has lied at some point.
So, the question remains: why stop now?
Nobody takes us poets seriously
