Of Preparing For The Inevitable





When time has all its pockets drained
And its last hour spent
Where Final Winter has complained
Across earth’s continent
When high and low and in between
Are all one and the same
And Destiny unveils its scene
With He from whence we came
 

….when Time has granted its last plea
And planted its last bloom
And everything is history
Upon an ageless tomb
Save for the soul which time can never
Order with its law
…when we stand where Forever stills
Our arguments with awe

…when all that was will be no more
And all that IS remains
When God His love and wrath will pour
Once and for all; Amen
When Time is rolled up like a scroll
And immortality
Proves the existence of the soul
Pray then, where will you be?

Will we believe boldly
or ignore God's Grace coldly?
There is no in between!
...just as there is no in between
Heaven and Hell...

but

"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake for theirs is the kingdom of heaven .....great is your reward in heaven." Matt 5: 10-12

Horror: Released last night, a new video by ISIS showed the beheading of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians on a beach in Libya


But ye, beloved, remember ye the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
That they said to you, In the last time there shall be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts.
 These are they who make separations, sensual, having not the Spirit.
 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,
 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
Jude 17-21
