Premium Member God's Commandments Do Us Good

They are some things that are not good
being harmful sinful to lead us away
but God has given us His famous ten
commandments to lead us in the true way

God is to be our God and only Him
with no graven image to bow to
taken never in vain the Lord's name
keeping the Sabbath holy and true

Our father and mother we must honour
never to enter our minds and thoughts to kill
be faithful to one's love not seeking another
never to steal this truly being God's will

Make sure no lie comes from your mouth
have no covetous spirit in you ever at all
these are God's commandments for our good
so make sure to be obedient and not to fall

Learn to fear God with due reverence
this your duty showing love for your Lord
bowing heart and soul to Him alone
His blessings will come your way in accord

(Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind." Ecclesiastes 12:13)

Storms

Everyone fears summer's or winter's storms 
proceeded by wrathful winds devastating many a grave,
and as the squirrels run for shelter
many trees fall on isolated roads...
see them break in two missing a scary bear;
behind this pelting window I fret and pray that I will live!


Who believes that all storms are started by a God who scrutinizes?
Isn't He very angry seeing the rampant wickedness below?
So with powerful lightning he strikes churches and temples; 
will all guilty preachers hide from the Shepherd's furious glow?  


A storm will not cause a Deluge as in Noah's days, believers can tell,
but danger is proof that bad deeds will be punished to uphold justice
and those who choose life will keep his commandments without malice;
let others do as they will, which other planet below Heaven is like Hell?

Angels Do You Believe

(10/3/14)

It was the first thing put on GODS list
So why do we question if angels exist?
They are his soldiers the guardians of earth
They have been here since humanities birth,
And since the world began giving GOD a helping hand.
Like everything in life it is a chain of command
That all of us should understand.
Not all who perish get their wings
You had to accomplish certain things
Trying to keep the commandments of GOD
No matter how difficult, no matter how hard.
Then there are the earthly angels who are always by your side
These are your teachers, they are your guides.
You’ve heard the expression “an angel was watching over you “
That is so very true.
They are with you until when the LORD decides
This is the last moment of your time.
If you still don’t believe in angels then that’s a shame
Because in their book they have your name!
Just like SANTA with his naughty and nice
This is the one who will take you to paradise.
Maybe we’ll meet on the other side
And you will tell me how you changed your mind.

Hope Vanishes Without Faith

All the riches and the uncontrolled lust
the alluring world can offer humans instantly,
will never affect the truest believer  
who dares not embody the devil waging war;
not to wear fine clothes and lustrous gold,
not to be admired or be vehemently worshipped,
not to stand where an impostor will cruble into dust;
Lucifer won't convince him or her to stray!

Hope vanishes without faith,
their dark road is even blacker than smoke
as they shout out what's unclean,immoral and unsacred;
even the fire can't melt the thick ice,
and the hammer isn't able to break
the shackles as they deliriously dance;
amid millions of innocent souls they profligate...
to pierce their flesh to make a lasting effect! 

People who declare themselves gods,
are anxious to be seen in the spot-lights...
displaying what they possess,telling what they crave!    
They prefer to be shackled by bondage,
live to extremes,and pay the dearest wage...
living to satisfy desire for a dangerous purpose,
to harm their bodies and bring calamity on themselves;
it's unimaginable the afflictions they brave!

Hope vanishes without faith,
you must protect it with your endurance;
your Creator has given you a choice:
live by his unchangable commandments,
or die without knowing His will;
ignorance stems from a lack of knowledge...
be the one who favors obedience,
to serve a God who asks nothing more than grace!

Premium Member Morose Christmas

Not everybody is having a safe and joyous Noël
Not all are enjoying a holy and holly jolly Christmas
Many people find themselves living in pure Hell
In countless countries, civilians are apprehended en masse
They are under sporadic and constant bombardments
Brigands violate the rules and the Ten Commandments.

Many people find themselves living in pure Hell
They are under sporadic or constant bombardments
Not everybody is having a safe and joyous Noël
Bandits violate the rules and the Ten Commandments
In countless countries, citizens are incarcerated en masse
Not all are enjoying a holy and holly jolly Christmas.

Premium Member God's Call To Follow Him With Our All -Matthew 22: 36-40

Man has sought to make God smile
always thinking they are able this to do
but God requires perfection absolute
so His followers need to be born anew

The first commandment calls us to follow
God's son Jesus with all in our being
for the Lord won't accept anything less
the great creator's well worth agreeing

But in one sense there's another challenge
God's second law calls for neighbourly love
our neighbourhood knows no boundary
we must show real love from above

This love demands a love of self
be displayed upon all bar none
who can do such a thing? anyone!
only God's spirit empowers such a one

These two commands need one twice-born
to achieve the desired effect God inspired
from heaven above comes divine power
bringing action upon those God has fired

(Matthew 22:36-40 
'Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?  Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.  On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.')
