Set Watch Be Vigilant

Be aware of the enemy.' it is in many guises and 
Disguises
The time is here; and has indeed been for four decades
To find your familiy in church, not by denomination.'
But by there love and actions, that come from Christ
(For by their Love you will know them) I have thought
And said for the last thirty years like spirits should
Forge alliance, and tear away from artificial division
Made by men and women, I noted a remark from
Graham Hood, that he was in company not as he would
Have expected to be in before that (plandemic,,!)
Some weeks after, the realization came to my spirit
That this shadows the teaching of the Bible..'
For two will be in the field.' and one will be taken
Two will be grinding, and one will be taken for God
Will pluck up those He chooses, and this will be really
Unexpected.' Just as Hoodie remarks on how unexpected
His allies turned out to be.' Be watchful and pray.'

Vijay thank you so much' the Thing is I know what it is to be Swayed by the life around me in My past moreso..' I lashed out at Times and have done bad as well As trying to do good.' Yet only Throught giving Jesus and God More control in my life have I put A lot behind me, I know my limitations I will not raise myself Up.' Yet I must recount of Gods Power as I have witnessed.'

Well Andrea I appreciate your Text here.' What can I do.? I Saw someone recounting an Atheist who's view concerning Christians was that he or she? Valued the attempts made by Beleivers to bring Christ to her/him as it sohwed a reality.' As if there was danger why would you not try and ward it Away.? Just like someone saying dont touch that electric Wire its unstable ' and I can see That I should think many can.' And don't let any here think I dont appreciate You Andrea, compadre.'

H Joe, enjoyed reading your Didactic piece. l know this is a poetry forum and not designed for debating, but how can l comment on what you wrote, without mentioning it? The way I see it there are two "ifs" The 1st lF is : what if there are side effects to the drug and l am being forced to take it? Shouldn't I have the right to say no without losing my job or being denied certain every day freedoms that others have? The second is : What if it does work without side effects, and taking it prevents the spread of a deadly disease, and that if EVERYONE takes it the disease can be irradiated, and no more innocent people will die? Don't l have the right to expect everyone to take it? l guess its a choice everyone has to make and live with the consequences. lnteresting Subject Joe, and great writing skills displayed.
