One glimpse of the divine heaven:
Leaves no room for sin’s leaven.

Children will be jumping and playing,
With Kings, Prophets, and Priest rejoicing.

Saints will be filled with the Spirit of Graces.
While joy beams on their bright holy faces.

With violins and trumpets and drums sounding,
They swell the breeze with voices resounding.

No more whoremongers or devil worshippers,
Nor evil murderers or incessant gossipers,

Only true disciples encompass the Heavenly throne,
But the unrighteous will not believe His blood atoned.

A new heaven and new earth will be God’s goal.
Let it be told, there are plenty streets of gold,

Jesus reigns on the White throne with peacefulness.
Whosever will, let him come believing in His fulness.

School teens using assault guns: should revert to chewing gum
They took out the bible’s solution to teach Darwin’s evolution.
Will we destroy wholesome marriages by allowing queers’ images?
Money is now the only goal, instead of saving hopeless-lost-souls.
We love playing money on jackpots, but it ends up in smoke like pot.
Teen’s innocent love for baseball, is now at risk by taking fentanyl
The more we eat makes us morbidly fat, but God is not about all that.
Politicians are becoming more corrupt, as babies are butchered up.
As bombs fall from the sky, so are citizens’ rights taking a nose dive.
Judgement Day is coming in Court, as God separates people of all sorts
Americans need prayer for restoration, by trusting in Jesus’ great salvation.
Because of Christianity, people can acknowledge God’s refined realities.
The Bible establishes authorities, not from vain theories or philosophies.
No lie is of the Truth; meaning impostors and counterfeits are uncouth.
What is your ultimate reality, or would you rather live unrealistically?

I searched God’s Word like a Surfer skimming over the Ocean,
To understand the conflict between God and my relation.
I discovered my Savior in the Bible while attending college.
I yearn for its revealed historical and fathomless knowledge.
My time is short for long-term learning and understanding.
Yet, I must display Christ to our world that’s tragically dying.
God granted grace and tasty truths to satisfy my thirsty soul.
Jesus’ kindness and mercy corralled me into the Shepherd’s Fold.
I believe Leviathan, Jonah’s whale, and Behemoth in Creation.
Scientist claim man and dinosaurs never co-existed in Evolution
Both use evidence and faith to base their findings thru credibility.
Our hope is Jesus’ final return, not man’s evolving thru inevitability.
Life is thru supernatural & divine miracles, not by numerical gullibility.
Jesus loved us beyond degree, by removing sin’s sting, like a hasty Bee.
With hearts full of peace and joy; we will honor and serve Him freely.
Man dies, and lives again: the Truth is Jesus—the Undeniable Reality.

We say, “I love you” over and over,
But when it fades we hope to recover.

By chance we split, and our end is blue.
And you want to shift to someone new.

Remember we’ll end in eternal heaven,
But we dwell in bodies with little leaven.

By chance our love grows freezing cold.
Remember our times as lovers of old.

We laughed so hard we went belly up.
We dined at night with bottomless cups.

There are no regrets we’ve spent together.
We appreciated and accepted one another.

Remember our flaws and sinful behaviors?
Somehow they skipped like turning pages.

Our future was hell bound minus the Lord,
But we’re tightly held by love’s strong cord.

I was obliged to love you and God a lot,
Now nothing can sever the love we’ve got.

The best of life was not receiving my college degree.
Nor being honored by my football coaches Co-MVP.
It was not being an Army’s brazen killing-machine,
Nor dating my beautiful high-school queen.
I wanted Jesus, like a thirsty man’s need for water,
I was quenched by the Spirit from my heavenly Father.
Unable to conquer my sins, like a leprous disease,
My sins were deathly; consumed with self to please.
Jesus pardoned them with His blood flowing stream—
And thru death conquered sin by His power supreme.
Only Jesus could satisfy my soul’s bottomless needs.
I did not have one Iota to boast of personal deeds.
I could not live sinless like Jesus in the flesh perfectly,
Or match His resurrected life over death triumphantly.
I decided to trust Him alone, and love others biblically.
At the end, I’ll reign in His Eternal Kingdom righteously,
And thank Him for giving me life more abundantly.

Jesus ministered as an undercover cop.
His search for souls will eventually stop.

Clothed in humanity’s earthly flesh;
He came to heal to earn their trust.

Teaching the Kingdom, as He first began:
Causing shame and others awful chagrin.

He rebuked the faithless and lowly legalists.
But, retained His Father’s perfect Holiness

From birth he witnessed a good report,
But His days had ended brutally short.

No one convicted Him of a single sin,
As He cast out devils from power within.

He is the Saving Sire of the world today.
Our Prince of peace to all nations we pray.

He will imprison Satan and Antichrists, too:
Unbelievers also must suffer hell’s fiery-blue.

He rescues the perishing for Heaven’s glory,
Then peace and safety will end life’s story.

His purpose was hidden from worldly eyes,
Like the undercover cop He’s God in disguise.

This Man is named Jesus—the Savior of all:
Offering mankind Salvation to all who call.

When my mother was plucked from the Earth,
I gazed with awe upon her falling floral red rose pedals,
And stood watching and marveled at her beautiful Sunset.
She was a center piece at house parties, and our family tree.
Her aroma of love filled the room like a sweet vanilla candle.
She danced like a turtle dove splashing in a sparkling fountain.
I savored her cooking, as I feasted on her acclaimed crispy tacos.
My youth was centered around my favorite television shows, but,
She labored tirelessly tidying her house, like beavers building a dam.
She spoke volumes with her friends and relatives like mountains echo.
She treated strangers with kindness, as unbelievers visiting a church.
As drummers march in step while following their band’s conductor,
She always attended worship services, & Bible reading with Praise.
Oh, how I long to see my beloved Mother’s heavenly reunion,
Like celebrating a newly born babe into this old world.
For now, I will cherish our memories, and live on.
Saying goodbye to her now, but not forever.

If you tell God: I am leaving you, so let me go.
He will say: I am dwelling in you, So, I say no!

We may disbelieve Him and put up a fuss.
He promised to never leave us nor forsake us.

God’s Words is based on permanent promises.
Our hearts have an undying love for His Holiness.

Are you one who trusts in the Succoring Savior.
He may chastise you regarding your behavior.

If you forsake God’s Word, and your heart is cold.
No worries – His love endures all, and never folds

Return ye stubborn Saint to your new Identity.
You were raised with Christ who lives in eternity.

Your fate is in Jesus, if your heart changed within.
His resurrection overcomes your battles with sin.

Sins and Laws do not define who you are.
His standard is love; and it obeys God by far.

Put on the Armor of God, and stand firm with prayers.
You will always be righteous for His love never wavers.

God assures us His Blessing are for the Prodigals, too.
So, spend time with the Father–He’s waiting on you.

Just hold on, that’s not what God intended.
Because through the Law sin was awakened.
Thru Adam & Eve’s Fall God was offended.
Later, Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross was erected.
That Old Adam and the Devil were defeated.
By His Resurrection souls can be extended.
His life in us is renewed and quickened.
Trusting Jesus is salvation promptly completed.
God’s Holy Spirit makes us completely bonded.
As the King of the Universe is apprehended,
And God’s Kingdom is greatly appreciated,
Then our Father and Jesus are very elated.
When His Name is known & highly exalted.
And death & hell will be utterly plummeted.
So call on the Lord Jesus to be delivered.

Faith is reasonable:
Come let us reason says the Lord,
like an Accountant counting the cost.
Faith involves the heart:
Love God with all your heart, mind, & strength
like a puppy playing with its master.
Faith has real evidence:
He is not here, He is risen,
like blood stains at a crime scene
Faith is reliable:
Christ is the Author and Finisher of our faith,
like an instructor endorsing a book.
Christ is our faith:
In Him dwells all Spiritual Blessings,
as the waters fill the Ocean.
True faith is loving:
God love the World He gave His Only Begotten Son,
as a hen gathers her brood under her wings.
Faith is required:
Why is it that ye have no faith?
like a SAT testing a student for college.
Faith is enduring:
Let us run the race set before us,
like a decathlon athlete finishing his race.
Faith in the Resurrected Christ:
Leads to no more curses,
makes life peaceful and joyful forever.
