Got People To Rebuke
Got people to rebuke And poetry to write. Ain’t got time to chat; I’m everyday up to the bat, A thing that I do not crave, To correct and teach to behave. Can’t help a fellow’s calling, What might seem quite appalling, But a fella got to do what he got to do; Got to […]

If You Walk in My Ways
(1 Kings 3:14f.) “If you walk in My ways I’ll prolong your days,” Said the Lord to Solomon. Ah, but when he awoke Said, “It must have been a joke! I been dreamin’ like a fool again.” (15) So he traveled along to Jerusalem, Stood before the ark of the Lord, Burned some offerings and did […]

Four Questions
Is there a God?Does He send judgments?Is Corona such?If so, what cause of this judgment must be addressed and eliminated? I might suggest sodomy and abortion are cause candidates. So what, SCOTUS or POTUS or the States, are you going to do about it? How about some bold governors put an end to such blasphemies […]

Holding Forth Relentlessly the Truth
We may well act condemnably Toward those who are condemnable. There really ought be no issue here, But those delicate anti-theists Who despise the rule of Law Can’t stand the notion that there is But one way when Truth be told. “Must there not be at least one other?” They seem to shriek with fear […]

Save the Nation!
Excrete Biden, abort the Court, honor the Law of God. There really is no better way than God’s way as revealed in His commands, the Big Ten. And the flagrant rejection of them exhibited in the decriminalization of sodomy and abortion is a glowing example of the disdain which our leadership has shown God and His […]

An “Opinion” Is Not Always To Be Respected
We have, in our culture, an undefined standard of toleration for “opinions.” We use the word almost as a thing sacred, to be respected and deferred to whenever the invocation of the word is heard by disputants. When “Well, that is my opinion!” is asserted, we back off from any assertiveness, lest we be construed […]

It’s Hot As Hell!

“Enthusiasm”!
It is a great word for us to ponder and to advocate in our present world of Christ-suppression and the consequent floundering in the darkness of Lawlessness. It means, simply, “God inside” of another. A simple, old, Greek word. “Get some the enthusiasm!” we might hear a coach yell as he rallies his team to […]

O Beautiful
To the tune of “America” (“O Beautiful for Spacious Skies . . .) O Beautiful, you’ve lost the race You’ve fallen far from grace You’re high and dry while babies die You don’t deserve this place That land would vomit you right out But for the grace of God He’s done with you, your time […]

When the Heathen Finally Cry “Uncle”!
When the heathen cry “Uncle”! And say, “Please tell us what to do!” Do we have an answer to give them Some counsel that they can use? Do we say, “Ah, just trust in the Lord” And leave them to figure it out? Or do we give ’em those Ten with a shout? “No murder, […]

The Fact of the Resurrection
The subject comes often to mind. Folks confuse “religion” with fiction and “philosophy” with fact. Somehow, those dealing in the realm of philosophy are presumed to be folks who deal with facts and then come to reasonable speculations about what life is all about. But those folks dealing in “religion” ply with insupportable wishes and […]

The Wicked Would Twist
The wicked one would twist and pervert; Ours is to resist, run, and stay alert. We stay on course by means of the Force That Spirit Whom He has sent By His grace to take the place Of the Savior Who saved the race From all its wanton disgrace. He rebukes, woos, and guides As […]

Masochistic Maskists
What is all this mask mania? We think we can escape a judgment by means of masks? Suck it up and die if that is the fate the Providence has ordained! Otherwise, live with thanksgiving and enjoy His mercy. But do not deceive yourself by imagining the use of a mask will protect you from […]
