Some poems that I write, are stupid and are dumb
This poem is not the case, I'll write of what's to come
-
What is coming on this earth, is Devastation Gloom and Pain
Suffering and Anguish, Death and Tears and Bane
-
So read this rhyme and mock, they mocked at Noah too
Until the rain came down, there mocking was then through
-
And so it is today, 'bout the warnings that I write
They are ridiculed and mocked, held in contempt and spite
-
In 2nd Thessalonians, words of comfort Paul did write
These I take to heart, while I fight the Fight
-
Start at chapter one, read verse seven to the end
To very very few, and to me this has been penned
-
Less I could not care, about your mocking and your jest
God's Wrath will be poured out...and I will be at rest

I release you o' wretched beast,
Who brings decay within
My inner being,
I speak the word of truth
From the Almighty God,
Who casts out darkness
With His righteous light,
Expose me Lord!
Expose me o' mighty King!
Bring forth the light,
Expose the darkness
That dwells within,
I pray Lord that I can share myself
And your gospel,
Which is the only hope a man can have.

Of the times and of the seasons, of these I need to write
For ye know not one iota, what it is that I do cite
I cite the Word of God, the King James Version to be sure
The only Book that does exist, that is Holy and is Pure
There’s coming a Day soon, as a thief that’s in the night
In dark foreboding gloom, then gone will be all Light
When “peace and safety” they shall say, then Destruction is abrupt
From which there’s no escape, and you cannot interrupt
Why is this you may ask?…you are appointed unto WRATH!
Ignore this if you will, and skip along your merry path

Lord, thank You for patience with me
Thank You for sacrificing Your Son
Whose patience has given the
Endurance of setting sinners free
I will "Lift up mine eyes"
And forever see
The lesson of patience as a challenge for me
Jesus was patient from the beginning and
Patient with us until His last day
His steadfastness to teach us His Fathers way
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 THESSALONIANS 3:5
May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.

COUNTING
( tusent selen siczen in dem himelrich uff einer nadel spicz * )
no don't ask me
how many
let's just say...a lot
angels dancing on
a pin or on a needle's point
doing their angel thing
now swing
now the Charleston
now a Black Bottom
"Oi! Angels! No!
Keep it quiet
for Heaven's sake
but would they
listen - oh no
****** hell
making it impossible
for me to try to thread
this *&@%/ needle
oh God now
they're dancing
the Can-Can...again
"Dónall son. . ."
me poor auld Mam pleads
"...that needle threaded yet?"
"I'm working on it Mam
I'm working on it!"
the angels snigger at my efforts
"Ok..let's begin then
that's one. . .
. . .a million and one!"
me Man snatches
the needle from me
"Oh give it here son!"
she licks the end
of the bright red
thread
passes it through
the eye of
the needle
a million and two
angels fall from its point
answering this needless question
***
James Franklin has raised the scholarly issue, and mentions that there is a 17th-century reference in William Chillingworth's Religion of Protestants (1637), where he accuses unnamed scholastics of debating "whether a Million of Angels may not fit upon a Needle's point?"This is earlier than a reference in the 1678 The True Intellectual System Of The Universe by Ralph Cudworth.
Helen S. Lang, author of Aristotle's Physics and its Medieval Varieties (1992), says
The question of how many angels can dance on the point of a needle, or the head of a pin, is often attributed to 'late medieval writers'.... In point of fact, the question has never been found in this form….
Peter Harrison (2016) has suggested that the first reference to angels dancing on a needle's point occurs in an expository work by the English divine, William Sclater (1575–1626) in his An exposition with notes upon the first Epistle to the Thessalonians (1619),
Sclater claimed that scholastic philosophers occupied themselves with such pointless questions as whether angels "did occupie a place; and so, whether many might be in one place at one time; and how many might sit on a Needles point; and six hundred such like needlesse points."
Harrison proposes that the reason an English writer first introduced the "needle’s point" into a critique of medieval angelology is that it makes for a pun on "needless point".
A letter written to The Times in 1975 identified a close parallel in a 14th-century mystical text, the Swester Katrei.
However, the reference is to souls sitting on a needle:
tusent selen siczen in dem himelrich uff einer nadel spicz *
— "in heaven a thousand souls can sit on the point of a needle."

Yesterday now is passed
It silently rest behind
All of it that now remains
Are the memories within my mind
Precious memories that I recall
Of precious friends and loved ones dear
They fill my thoughts of yesterday
My memories hold them near
It is hard to understand why time
So quickly passes by
Takes the ones we dearly love
And leaves us with tear dimmed eye
Yet I look to tomorrow in faith
Holding to the promise that Jesus told
You shall meet those you love again
In heaven on streets of gold
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

WOW!!!
IMAGINE BIBLICALLY DONE ART
I went to Genesis hotel through Exodus road. On the way, I saw Leviticus recording the Numbers of people at Deuteronomy, while Joshua was waiting at the Beautiful gate for Judges to see Ruth calling loudly "Samuel ! Samuel ! At a stage, the first and second Kings of Chronicles 1 & 2, were coming to visit Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther for the misfortune of Job their brother. They started singing Psalms and teaching children Proverbs concerning Ecclesiastes and Songs of Solomon. This coincided with the period that Isaiah was engaged in Jeremiah's Lamentations together with Ezekiel and Daniel their friends. By that time, Amos and Obadiah were not around. Three days later, Hosea, Joel and Jonah travelled in the same ship with Micah and Nahum to Jerusalem. Habakkuk then visited Zephaniah
who introduced him to Haggai a friend of Zechariah whose cousin is Malachi.
Immediately after the tradition, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John got involved in Acts of the Romans who were behaving like the 1st Corinthians group because the 2nd Corinthians group were always at loggerheads with the Galatians. At that time too, they realized that the Ephesians and Philippians were close to the Colossians, and a suggestion for the first Thessalonians visit was made, and that on their second Thessalonians visit, they should first of all see the first and second of the Timothy brothers who had gone to the house of Titus to teach Philemon his younger brother how to read and write in Hebrew. On hearing this, James asked Peter twice to explain to him how the three Johns have disclosed to Jude the Revelations of this journey.

I will write a poem, I’ll write some words that rhyme
I will write a poem, about our day and time
-
I will write a poem, about a bubble soon to burst
I will write a poem, about a day that’s cursed
-
Will you live to see, see the sun rise one more time?
Or will you see Destruction?…Destruction so sublime
-
You will see Destruction! Then Seven Years of Pain
You will see Destruction! Grief and Death and Bane
-
The world scurries to and fro, oblivious of Doom
The world scurries to and fro, you won’t even have a tomb
-
So eat and drink be merry, soon you will all die
This was written long ago…YOU BELIEVED A LIE
