Premium Member Evolution

"Evolution is the stupidest thing for anyone to believe in."
 The above was said to me by a very devout Christian
 of undisclosed religious denomination.
 My response to this individual was the following:
 "Evolution isn't something one can choose to believe in
 because it has nothing to do with faith but everything to do with science,
 and unlike every Holy Scripture it's not open to interpretation.
 Science is and always will be strictly based on proof and evidence,
 and the proof and evidence prove only one thing.
 The process of evolution has been going on since the dawn of creation,
 and continues to this day evolving everything,
 be it everything alive or non living.
 This is something I know NOT something that I believe
 because science has proved all of this to me.
 Evolution doesn't prove that God doesn't exist.
 In my opinion, 
Evolution gives God credibility because it's truly a miraculous process."

Premium Member The Purpose of Holy Scripture

We've all got favorite Bible texts
ones we hopefully can bring to mind
each day we may read a Bible passage
hoping for a hidden gem we'll find

But what good does the Bible do?
in our busy lifes so very full
do we really take the time to study?
has it a prominent place to truly rule?

God's holy word has a divine purpose
to be a revolutionary master book
so our life's are so really effected
making us realise it needs be shook

The purpose of holy scripture
is so it will make a change
in our lifes to be so different
positively transforming out of range

God's holy authoritative inerrant book
this is holy spirit's means of impact
working in and through us to be godly
for God's glory this is biblical fact

Quote:
("It's not hard to take well known Scriptures lightly. Sure we've heard and read them. We might even be able to rattle them off quickly. But the Bible wasn't meant to become familiar to us - it was meant to change our lives.)

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.

Once Broken But Now Blessed

more than any other occurrence that depicts the post-modern age
is the diminishing of society's once passionate Christian rage
people are now more secular, they're no longer in sync with Christ
people are now leading more shattered and broken lives
with no real sense of being connected we have misplaced our origins
we seem to be disconnected from ancestral beginnings
we have set aside our history and no longer give our elders respect
we are a fractured society with no depth of retrospect
our youths are out of control they're no longer raised to be polite
we have forgotten our forefathers, disenfranchised from our inherent rights
fragmented, disassociated we no longer seem to be whole
we're pieces of a dream, parts of diminished souls

In order to be healed we must look at the big picture
In order to be whole we need to seek answers in the Holy Scripture
the word of God will reconnect us to our spirituality
the word of God will tell us how to restore our legacy
we need to see ourselves as whole people who are integrated
more than just bodies but hearts, minds and souls no longer separated

take this bread the Lord Christ said for this is my life
take this bread for it represents the body of Jesus Christ
the Lord God desires that we not  be broken nor to be stressed
He wants us to be whole in body and for our souls to be blessed

In order to handle the brokenness we need to reconnect with the Lord
with a yen to be whole in spirit and have everything in accord
for when you are at your weakest Christ will be your strength
His grace will be sufficient to go the full length
once broken but now blessed with a new found sense of hope
once broken but now blessed with God's grace to help you cope
once broken but now blessed the Lord's strength in you has been found
once broken but now blessed standing on higher ground
feed on the daily bread and be filled with the breath of life
once broken but now blessed with the grace and mercy of the Lord Jesus Christ
the worst is now over and you're no longer in the midst of a spiritual crisis
once broken but now blessed trusting on the Lord God's promises

The Probate Letter


Remember me
Your beloved mother

In the low hours

Whenever you are feeling weak 
And have lowered
Your powerful barriers

For it's then I can only be truly seen

Remember me
As that tsunami of furious fire

That once reenergized you
In dark years

When you were alone and tired

To be wholly free

Remember me
By looking at my picture
Of us together 

Your now favourite 
Black and white one
 I sent you

As my holy scripture
That you'll only need

Remember me when you too are old 

Standing brightly as the early morning sun 

In the darkness of old age

Even though your beloved memories are getting cold

Before God turns your page
So you can fade away

To join me 

As the hours and seconds
Run away 

Remember me
So I may stay
In some strange spiritual way

To give you comfort

Until you too are recalled
To float away

Someday

Remember me
My poetic love 
So I can come to you

In dreams

Walking down to find you
Through the ethereal blue rivers and green

Underground streams 

To reach you to swim
Together 

Reunited

In the Holy Sea
Until the early morning sunrise

Remember me

As your true spiritual devotion

Who you met in physical flesh

As one
Who wrote down 
In a pre-life road map

With a spirit guide
In another
Far away nation

“I want to meet someone so extraordinary 

A child of mine 

Someone so special to be a member of my own tribe

Who will show me such poetic wonders” 

“That my heart will open up its velvety doors and ask to be possessed as it pleads to confess

Before I once more walk 
In those heavenly tides
Of the Holy Sea”

And then I suddenly met you at birth

Mesmerised 
By all I could see

So that's why I pray
For you 
Each night

So you'll remember me
As I wait here

Walking barefoot and alone
In the swirling tides
Of The Holy Sea

Waiting 
for the one to love me again

I once wrote down before I was born

The only one I'll ever need

Just remember me
It's why I left this letter in my will

For you 
My beloved to read

Just remember me

Your beloved mother
Who loves you like no other

Premium Member The Preciousness of Scripture

All of us have precious things
that to us are personally dear
we may not have silver or gold
but deep down it's abundantly clear

When one is a true believer
in God and His merciful grace
revealed in His son Jesus Christ
one feels loved before His face

This is revealed in Holy Scripture
which comes down from God above
showing HIs affection for this world
sending the message of sovereign love

This God gave His holy word
so to tell bus of the redemption
of a people chosen for Himself
bringing them such precious salvation

Such is the preciousness of scripture
to those who love the Lord their God
having God's promises means so very much
knowing the power in God's mighty sword

Premium Member Fundamentalists V Evangelicals

I believe
I can be an evangelical
multiculturally intelligent Christian
if I am not an anti-historical literalist,
a fundamentally white patriarchal dogmatist,
using holy scripture to divide and conquer
what divine creation has compassioned to regather.

I also know beyond death's shadow
and within life's promise
A fundamentally patriarchal believer
in God's might makes Earth right
cannot be a good news gospel driven
spiritually maturing
evangelical Christian believer
and doer
and follower
of polypathic cosmic-conscious Christ
timelessly embodied.

What is healthy evangelical loving witness
is antithetical to patriarchal fundamentalist dogmatism.

Evangelical Christians follow Christ's win/win multiculturing heart path
of integrity.
Fundamentalists, fake-Christian and fake-Islamic
and fake empowerers of all faiths
and all natural/spiritual systems,
lead win/lose monoculturing mind pathology
of mendacity.

To learn the difference
between fundamentalism and evangelical vocation
is to know us by our communal natural love
and our divisive anti-spiritual judgments
against those who shrink
down into fundamentally shriveled
win/lose zero-sum narcissists.

To Tell the Truth

The truth has experienced a hard time these days
With alternative facts, distorted reality twittering in viscous ways
You would expect down right good sense to somehow prevail 
As common sense is no longer common and seems to have gone to hell 
Spin doctors and scandal adjusters are raking in billions
To present an alternative truth to the American millions 
They are now attacking the press for speaking truth to power 
And those in high positions have tried to fortify their towers 
Narcissistic liars are now in control
I just pray that God watches over all of our souls

Now Jesus is the truth and Jesus is the Word 
Just do not believe those political shysters no matter what you've heard 
To be a fact checkers like those folks called Bereans 
To read and search the Holy Scripture and not just believe what you're seeing
To see reality and call it what it be
To simply tell the truth without any discrepancy 

To now be true to yourself with a self examination 
To acknowledge your strengths and weaknesses with full explanation 
No longer to let society whitewash facts and diminish your history 
As a child of God you're a strong African American with your own story
The truth will set us free and we need to realize 
That lies and falsehoods are like a Cracker Jacks box prize
Shiny on the outside pretty at first sight
But unlike the truth never to stay upright

Premium Member The Revelations of God Holy Only You O God-

The revelations of God – HOLY ONLY YOU O’ GOD--

"Holy you?
You are
Only, only you?
The revelations of God 

And is the guiding holy text of the Christian religion.
Of holy? “blessed.” relationship between holy and whole;
In the religious sense probably developed
From keeping believers spiritually whole — 
And pure Holy only exalted worthy of complete devotion SURE

God as one perfect
 In goodness and righteousness
 DIVINE for the Lord our God is holy
Only devoted entirely to the deity 
His the works of the deity a holy temple
Holy prophets having a divine quality of holy love
Hallelujah

Venerated as or as if sacred Holy Scripture 
Living word Jesus, might holy councilor
Only one thing that is true,
God’ appropriate, 
Necessary in a particular situation, in contrast

He’s never unordinary
He’s all the truth the only true, 
He’s in the sense of just, Merely
At the moment He’s no theory.
He’s never weary

God is just 
Simply  just
God is purely just
Merely just only God
He’s more than
 
Nothing but only God
Only
At most He’s most
Only, Always only God
My God, Our God, Our God is Holy Only-Hallelujah"
