Hordes of twisted tongues
Infest width, breadth

Seal the gates

They're coming by the thousands,
here to suck your blood,
here to take a bite,
in a gluttonous biblical flood.

Hold firm and squirm,
don't be late,
or wait,
hold the gates,
then accept your fate.

Premium Member The problem with biblical eisegesis

The problem with biblical eisegesis
is that you tear Bible verses to pieces.
And in your effort to make of the Bible and its glory
your own personal story,
the truth value of the Bible dramatically decreases.
