For an eternity – before anything was made, The Triune God existed, independent, Self-sufficient, self-contained, and content. He needed nothing – angels, people, matter. He – this God – was in Himself, communal. Sometime after making the angels, this God (Father, Son and Spirit, don’t ya know!)Made people in His image, giving them free will. […]

So-called “clinics” Where the heathen Gather with other cynics Who deny the image of God In every human being. (As we know from God’s word Taking us beyond the seeing, Each one from conception Is a soul made for eternity.) Let these places be damned That with death are crammed, As they admit those with […]

Kicked off the wrestling team for “vaping”? Yeah, not raping . . . V-A-P-I-N-G! Pretty dog-gone harsh and down-right cruel to us spectators. Why should we fans be punished for such a simple “offense”? Not to mention screwing over a kid’s wrestling scholarship opportunities. Any discipline for students who blaspheme or disrespect teachers in class? […]

A dad had a few kids And said he had enough. Got himself “snipped”; Thought he was done. Tried to make life easy and fun; Didn’t want to risk another child; Wanted to put life in the mild Mode and keep any extras at bay So to enjoy that easier day Without those little imps […]

The Trinity we must behold, A truth more valuable than gold. Eternal love between two there was, And a witness better than a “cuz”:A full-fledged member of the “Godhead” As some would say of the triune God! Yes, that love was an eternal sort To which the Scriptures testify and support. Yeah, it’s denied by […]
