Premium Member Receiving and Examining Truth -Acts 17: 11

God is indeed complete in all truth
every word that’s uttered from His tongue
indeed truth incarnate to fullest degree
to this world divine truth has sprung
 
When God works by His holy spirit
planting an eagerness in seekers heart
developing spiritual birth really strong
as His word pins them back like a dart
 
Daily the scriptures receive examination
checking out the words of apostle Paul
as so should all genuine truth seekers
leaving nothing unturned nothing at all
 
So whether it’s Paul Moses or Jesus words
holy scriptures is divinely inspired and sent
God spoke through His holy prophets of old
conveying His message eternally meant
 
So take heed to do all God declares
for His warnings and comforts are real
listen well to all of His godly truth
follow Him true and fully with all zeal
 
 (‘They received the message with great eagerness and examined the scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true’. Acts 17: 11)

Rabbis Do Lie

The following verse is the result of an email exchange I had with Rabbi Tovia Singer. He admitted, in an email to me, that he knew he was telling a false tale. But he never bothered to inform his listeners of the source being World News Daily (WND), known to publish false claims. The chariot wheels story is known male bovine excrement.


Tovia Singer, a rabbi of fame,
Is known for his Christianity claim,
That it’s a fraud and just not true,
And believing it is bad to do.

He talks of Jesus and the apostle Paul,
And show us how they’re off the wall.
He uses history and archaeology,
To demonstrate their false mythology.

But when it comes to his own belief,
He runs from the facts like a guilty thief.
When asked about archaeology disagreeing,
He talks softly, stammers, from the topic he’s fleeing.

I think the term hypocrite applies,
To this man who also tells lies.
He told a story about the Red Sea,
And Pharoah’s chariots catastrophe.
That wheels were found under the water,
After God allowed this slaughter.

World News Daily, the source of this news,
A journal well known for printing false views.
And when told of the source, he said he didn’t care,
And also stated that he was aware,
That the story was just a plain fake,
So trust this man at your own sake.
So it seems that rabbis really do lie.
Just more bull from a fake good guy.

My Dearest Mabel

My dearest Mabel
was the human personification
of what her first name stood for:
"Beautiful" and "Lovable"
She was a nurturing mother
grandmother, teacher and woman of God

She was the perfect help mate
for my great grandfather
She was to him
what Eve was to Adam
what Sarah was to Abraham
what Rebekah was to Isaac
and what Ruth was to Boaz
She was the embodiment
of the virtuous women characterized
by King Solomon in Proverbs 31
and the Apostle Paul in Titus 2


Today, we honor you
as Acklins's favorite daughter
and our family's brightest star
Until that Glad Reunion Day
we bid you a sweet and pleasant sleep

Premium Member Departure Testament

Nearing departure* toward eternity, I now indite
my testament reverberating truths divinely aright
inspired by Apostle Paul whom the Scriptures cite
exemplifying the beatitudes I earnestly invite.

Once tortured by doubts tormenting me for escape flight
I have kept the faith through God’s compassionate might
against frustration-failure sight
for triumphant stewardship-height.

Downtrodden whenever carnality pursued selfish delight 
my soul strove, never to retreat from battle for what is right
vanquishing fruitlessness’ blight
to build lives against evil’s fight.

Enveloped by unbelief midst skepticism bite
I trusted God’s grace and love that excite
overcoming slothfulness' mocking slight
with empowered service of prayer-plight.

Forgiven from confessed guilt-fright  
my spirit ascends following heaven’s light
beholding forever --- devoid of night
now, my legacy I leave triumphantly tight.

*2Timothy 4:6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

Premium Member Rejoice Always Again and Again 2 Corinthians 13:11- Philippians 4:4

The apostle Paul gave this exhortation
that as believers learn to rejoice
whether in our heart or with verbal shout
sound off with inner or outer voice

This rejoicing must be focused upon
the Lord God and truly Him alone
for He’s worthy of all our praise
as only this Lord our sins did atone

This Lord is our mighty saviour and redeemer
making Himself the perfect sacrifice for sin
only He was good enough to pay the price
that to heavens door we can fully enter in

The Lord sticks close with us
through all of life and more
His ear hears our faintest cry
grants His grace forever at our door

So rejoice always continually
to the Lord alone be the glory
for He’s done all things well
this is our ongoing eternal story


('Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. ' 2 Corinthians 13: 11 (ESV)
' Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.') Philippians 4: 4 (ESV)

Premium Member In Other Words

Do not be yoked together with unbelievers 
For what does righteousness have in common with deceivers? 
What fellowship can day have with night? 
What harmony is between Belial and Light? 
What does a believer have in common with those who quip? 
Or between God’s temple and idol worship? [1]
We put no stumbling block in anyone’s way
                   so that our ministry will not be disgraced
Rather, as servants of God
                  We commend ourselves, we nod
In great endurance, in troubles 
                  hardships and stumbles
In imprisonments, riots and beatings
                  in hard work, sleepless nights and we go without eating
In purity, understanding, patience, being kind
                 (We walk by faith not by sight) [2]
In the Holy Spirit and in sincere love
                 in truthful speech and in God and His power thereof
With weapons of righteousness we brandish
                 in the right and in the left handed
Through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report
                genuine, yet regarded as impostors (they retort)
Known, yet regarded as unknown 
Dying, and yet we live on as shown
Beaten, and yet not killed
Sorrowful, yet with joy we’re filled
(We don’t mourn as those lacking hope
But we believe that God in Jesus will bring us home) [3] 
Poor, yet making many rich, rejoicing
  Having nothing, and yet possessing everything [4]

Premium Member Glory In The Cross Of The Lord Jesus Christ - Galatians 6: 12-16

Are you none that glories in the flesh?
who thinks this will bring you salvation
so fear not persecution for Christ's cross
but believe in Christ alone for justification

Give no time to circumcision or the like
nothing will save you except Christ alone
for true circumcision is of the heart
where Christ can dwell your chief cornerstone

Confess the truth found in Holy Scripture
preached by the disciples and apostle Paul
justified by grace alone in Christ alone
glory alone in Christ's cross and don't stall

Be in Christ Jesus a new creation
never be afraid of the cross's offence
stand firm for your blessed Jesus
knowing He is a sure defence

The lesson learned here is true
don't be offensive to those you speak
but take up the cross of this Christ
who died for your sins make you anew

(Galatians 6: 12-16)
12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

Premium Member Faith Full of Courage

What is faith if not tested
especially when God challenges you
to see if you really believe
asking is God really true?

Thinking of believers in troubled lands
where worship of God is banned
under constant watch of every step
really takes a lot to stand

Living every day looking behind your back
not knowing what tomorrow will bring
under pressure not knowing the consequences
but always keeping God as your king

The church which is most persecuted
is the one that shows God's risen power
in no matter what still believe
believing God even in the darkest hour

This is faith full of courage
knowing God to be your all
being strong in the eternal God
staying faithful like apostle Paul

Premium Member For To Me To Live Is Christ - Philippians 1: 21

For to me to live is Christ
here the apostle Paul speaks in faith
showing who he believes upon
this true confession he indeed saith

What does this mean for you?
where is Christ in your life?
give the highest place to the Lord
where God cuts through His knife

Hold not to the pleasures of life
for it can't satisfy your inner being
the spirit within seeks to fill
revealing the Lord in full agreeing

Keep close to the Lord God
live for Him before all else
knowing death will be such gain
receiving heavens done so well!



" For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
Philippians 1: 21 (esv)

Premium Member Mister Death and Grim Reaper verses

When I saw the Grim Reaper
pull out his peeper and pee on the patio,
I yelled, "Hey Jack!
Can't you use the facilities out back?
That's what normal people do, you know.

I always said I wasn't afraid of death,
till one night, Death tried to rob me of my breath.
And as I was gasping for air,
he said with a cold, penetrating stare,
"Next time they ask if you're afraid of death,
just say 'Yesth.'"
I came to this hospice to die.
I see Mister Death standing by.
He's consulting a note.
I thought he did everything by rote.
What’s with that quizzical look in his eye?

When Mister Death had me firmly in his grip,
I pleaded, "Sir, can we please make this a round trip?"
He said, "I'm sorry to say,
this trip is only one way.
But we do serve drinks, and chicken wings,
with a delectable ranch dip."
When it got to be close to seven,
we were still a half-light year away from heaven.
I said, "Mister death, one question more.
When will we get to heaven's door?"
"Oh, not till tomorrow morning, Sir,
about a quarter past eleven.

When I reach the pearly gates with the grim reaper as my guide, 
I hope the question of whether I get heaven or hell is only for Jesus to decide.
Because if Peter is allowed his opinion, and then that apostle Paul,
I don't think I stand much of a chance at all.
When we got to heaven, Saint Peter said,
“Hurry in, quick, so I can shut the door ~
you were being closely followed by the Babylonian whore.
And if she were to get in,
God only knows what trouble I'd be in.
Heaven would never again be the same as before.”

To folks staring at a screen in a brightly lit room,
I said, "I have arrived in heaven, right, I presume?"
"Yes, yes," they replied, my soon-to-be heavenly friends.
“But until this gosh darn epidemic ends,
there's no other way to do heaven but by Zoom.”
Heaven is not at all what I expected.
It’s hell to be stuck in a place with the boring elected.
They do nothing but this goody-goody-two-shoe stuff!
Believe me, after half an eon, I’ve had just about enough.
Oh, where’s the escape button? I wanna be ejected.

The end
