The heathen will despoil anything sacred, But that doesn’t mean we withdraw or give in! We take back and restore those holy daysAnd we teach the people what they mean!We explain the Gospel and teach the Word.Run and hide away? That’s absurd!There are times to withdrawAnd avoid the Devil’s maw,And there are times to take […]

(A Churchy Incarnation Meditation) A colonel may be subordinate to a general, but he is no less – an officer. He is no less a soldier; he is no less a servant of his country. He is no less a human. So, the eternal Son of God and the eternal Spirit are subordinate to the […]

Always available, but when applied? Upon confession and repentance: An important condition for its application. The blood of Christ is not accessed otherwise. (He may, indeed, sovereignly apply His gift To anyone He chooses at any time, of course.) So for us cognizant and conscientious folks, We are behooved to focus upon the turn And […]

Yeah, I’m a genuine sinner, More concerned about my dinner Than the locale of an eternal soul. (Like some soup in a bowl,I treat another person’s “fate.”)Am I about love or hate?!Do I care about the one going down?More than a “smirky” frown?If there is a salvation worth declaring,They why am I so erring,Failing to […]

So . . . which Jesus? The “Jesus” of Joseph Smith? The “Jesus” of Wierville?The “Jesus” of Muhammad?(Lots of false christs out there!)The Jesus of the Bible is God:The Second Person of the Trinity,Sharing divinity with the Spirit and Father.Get it straight before Judgment Day;By no means a small matter.Don’t disrespect the Savior:A king is […]

When we gain our own fame,That of others soon palesAnd we see the world anew.There are things much greaterThan the famous, even me and you.Yes, the Almighty is the One to be adoredAnd by comparison makes us boredTo even think of the glory of humanityWith all its foolishness and insanity. 1150 on 7 Sept 2023
