‘Tis a wicked world of winelessness: Weakening the soul. What to do with those taste buds? Just put those jewels on hold? You know they got a purpose: To savor such things well And prompt much thanksgivingFor our escape from that placed called hell.Ain’t no thing to get some buzz;(Can’t say I get it much […]

Dear cultist, come out o’ the “bliss”!Shun that nasty time in the darkness;Got the Truth waitin’ for your sorry ass.You need no more be foolish and crass.The One true God has done it for you!The Father sent the Son to lay it all down.Then sent the Spirit to bring you around!Wandering as you were: a […]

Folks don’t handle well the company Of that person of glorious note. He’s attractive but discomfiting; His glory exposes deficiency. There is an awkwardness:A sense of failure, subordination;A feeling of wrongfulnessInspired by the presenceOf the high-level achiever.Yeah, such company is discomfiting,But it need not as such be so!We ALL fall short of HIS glory,Making ours […]

The looming question is: “Why hasn’t ‘The Church’ excommunicated him?!?!?!”

If the Pope, via “fiducia supplicans,” wishes to BLESS sodomites – who wish to blatantly announce, glorify, and normalize their sin, rather than confess it as sin, repent (and depart from it) – he is an accomplice to their blasphemous behavior. What shall we say to such disgusting, perverse heresy? What of such apostasy? Damn […]

In speaking the Truth, you may offend Smithy Mormons, Watchtower Witnesses, Wierville Wayists, Democrats, RINOs or maybeEven right-wing or regular lefty sodomites!So, hope for the best and anticipate the worst:Some will receive it and others will cover and run,But you will not lose out on the ultimate fun.You will have obeyed the call to summonThose […]

Are you protesting this apostate Pope? You do know that he blesses sodomite “marriages.” Right? So, what keeps you from abandoning such heresy? And body of people, any organization, which approves heresy (perversion, apostasy, etc.) is to be abandoned. Why haven’t others in authority removed the heretic? Are they in agreement? Or without the gonads […]

“How you doin’?” a fellow might say As I’m walkin’ in the light of day. “Doin’ right (actually quite) well, Good health and escaped from hell! Can’t ask for much more or complainNo matter the troubles or pain.”Yeah, there is much to be thankful for.Just a quick look around; open the door!Take a peak at […]

Whenever you see someone misbehaving: Even just some sloppy bathroom shaving, Remember that we are all fallen critters, Always disrupting or offending someone. We all rub each other the wrong way From time to time and need to be awareAnd not just give one another a stare.How we, I indeed, fail to respect and restoreThose […]

She was the wife of my co-pastor, Mike Colvin, at Reformation Lutheran Church. She passed, very recently, into the presence of the Lord: Father, Son and Spirit, whom she diligently served and honored with her life. When we think of Claudia, the words “diligent, jovial optimism” come to mind. Little explanation is due. She was […]
