Notes About The Poem

Quockerwodger: a political puppet or someone who is manipulated by someone else.

Skulduggery: desception 

Ramfeezeled: completely worn out, exhausted or confused

My reference to a "bullet dodger" comes from a lecture series "Basic Training for Defending the Faith" by Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen

 

What Is A Quockerwodger?

God both judges and forgives
He blesses and sieves
With all the skulduggery
And vile buggery
He will not acquit
          The Idiocy or the idiot

With fire tunnels and grave soaking
We are to the Lord provoking
Are you a bullet dodger in debate?
Are you a quockerwodger (who can’t think straight)?
Are you of the Brothers’ Wit
              (of which are half, dim and nit)?

In the devil’s temple a liturgical rift
In every congregational split
Of the convocation brand
Do you bury your head in sand?
When God has called us out 
                 from among those who are mute

Those who are mute dilute God's commands
They accept men as women (and don't make a stand)
Do you think you know better?
Do you think you can do any better?
So, stand in Adam’s stead
            And let’s see if your freewill won't lead to a "dead-end" 

So, the deception inception and reflection
Goes on across our nation in each deflated congregation
God is preparing mansion-mountains
God is providing the thirsty with fountains
Even when the landscape looks bleak
                      God is at work behind the scenes

Resolution (in God's Word):
If you are feeling ramfeezeled
If you are feeling bamboozled 
Study it, rightly divide it (don’t hide it)
Walk with Your Companion, beside it
Don’t just be a hearer, but a doer 
             Pray over it, read it (be a Berean gum-shoer)
