Human Trafficking

The human soul is independent
God gave free will. Remember?
Humans want to live freely and well

Nature wants humans to live alone
God gave his words, read the Bible
Then you never will be you, alone

God is your ruler, hand, love, and helper
God’s words are the truth, life, and water
You aren’t alone, you have a friend, eternal

My fate,

Premium MemberPersecution of Richard Vobes

Richard Vobes, a gentle man with measured tones
Helpful content broadcast to many, inventive mind
Makes often light; on 'you tube' of dark designs palpable as night
Airless, almost we feel, and hear see bad actions 
Observe distrust and fear, documented intentions
Of hostile vein, tenseness in multitudes inherent strain
90% the target say just a few, less to share

In the land of Armenia, Christians face death each day
The Land of Azerbajan, encroaches and causes affray
A line of troops however hold, the opposing sides at bay
It suprised  my mind to know (they are not from un or USA.'

Cathars In the Land of the Angles

In winter's cold grip
In the land of the Angles
The Good Christians came
Against their will to a trial
In a grand city
Called the Ford of the Oxen
Good will be slaughtered
By the hands of hot fire
The hands of the judge
The home's ruler was their judge
His stare was piercing
That went with flaming outbursts
And with his red hair
And the king's

Death's Welcome

We may suffer tribulation and trouble
but does that mean the Lord leaves us alone?
We may be destitute, hungry and naked,
but does the Lord turn his back on his own?

We are on a mission, a journey t'wards home...
home to the Father.  Our path may grow dim;
but counsel, direction, encouragement from
God's Spirit brings joy to those

Persecution

Persecution

Your spewing blasphemy like a teenage rhapsody.
Full of spite, while you delight in the atrocities of vulgar and hate.
Nobody wants to be your mate!
A false bravado; like Watergate.

An obnoxious image trying to intrigue the nations.
While your entire family goes under investigation.
There is no liberation.
Just a low rate politician wanting more recognition!

While everyone suffers, and the

Fighting For a New Iran

Fighting for a New Iran.

Marg Bar they shout
At those they hate,
Iranians want changes
They are brave, they are great.

They must call for rebellion
So freedom voices say,
But when they need their help
Those voices are far away.

Opponents who gather on the streets
Are persecuted and oppressed
When they fight for freedom and justice
They believe they are blessed.

Quarantine

Here and there I saw the fear 
People running & saying it clear 
Corona here, corona there
Some ran for needs
Some ran for greeds
Some were worried about all their deeds 
It took me back in a reverse gear 
It took me back to Kashmir my dear 
Quarantine here, Quarantine there

Multicolored Persecution

We may not agree with you, but we love you.
We may not condone your choices, but we accept you as made in God's image.
We are not afraid of you, but we believe God wants a different life for you.
Why do you say we hate you?
Is it hate to disagree?
Is it hate to prefer our ways?
Is

_________________________________________

Unrest of spirit churns behind thy door,
the sin interned therein is quarrelsome
No "witch" that thou hast burned serves to restore
the pitch that has upturned thy moral plumb

Forego thy demons, none would be found here
Such guile belies the pleasure of the young
Until thy trials should rise of fact, not fear,
so will thy measure see the pious

Premium MemberRemembering Persecution Days

Buried in the dungeon of oblivion
Was the agony that once gripped me
When I was persecuted because of my faith
As a new convert to Christianity which the Bible teaches.

Now, the memory of such phase in my life is being resurrected
While I’m engrossed watching a significant event in world history,
The Dark Ages with its gruesome horrible Inquisition

Persevere Through Persecution

P-ersevere through persecution
U-ntil the end of time; 
R-ace of life you must finish
I-n victory so sublime.
T-hreats truly may come, to test your faith and composure; 
A-s long as you trust in God, certainly you can endure.

E-xpect the false accusations, 
S-aid by your faith's enemy, 
C-all on the Father above, 
A-sk Him to make you steady.
L-ies
