When we speak of the “use of force,” we may count it a good thing or a bad one, depending upon the circumstances. Was force used to prevent or halt an evil? Was it used to commit an evil? Was it military violence which conquered the Nazis? Is it police violence which guns down a […]

I was laicized by no one. My status as a teacher never changed; The disbanding of a church And the shuffling of its people Dispersed into new assemblies Is a feature of the Spirit’s movements.He does what He wills apart from our thrillsOr objections to His choices and decrees.Sometimes we are in for a squeezeAs […]

The Wiervillain Way is, of course, the wrong way. It is the way of the Triune One which saves your day. Indeed, it is the way to save your eternity from hell. Of all things in this life, the honoring of God is your duty. No matter all the joy you get from philosophy or […]

Jesus did not “treat everyone with love and respect.” Remember that Temple event? (When He tore it up?) Remember His words to the Pharisees? (They weren’t pretty.) Did he respect those who were running that place? Did he politely comply with their blasphemy? Did He accommodate their idolatry? How do you think we overcame the […]

Sometimes a “whack” needs a whack! Just can’t get that head to think;Like someone who had too much to drink. So it is with many-a Democrat Stuck on some equality track As if evil and good rode the same railAnd there was no need to put anyone in jail;No evil from good to be discriminated.And […]

In America, we got everything to lose; We can follow any god we want to choose!Got freedom to be any kind of heretic!(We can suck on things that make a fellow sick.)Might be a “Witness” or a Wierville fan;Might even be a member of the Ku Klux Klan,But we are FREE to do what we […]

You may be a free-thinking heretic Or a follower in an American cult: A Russell, Watchtower, Witness, A Smithy Mormon,A Wierville Wayist,A Women’s Rights Pro-abort,Or a heretic of some other sort.Come, rather, to the Truth:The Triune God who has always been!The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.There is life to be found in Him who came […]

Forget about theological issues of papal supremacy or sanctification issues of liturgical order and Eucharistic cleansing which might be objected to be Protestants. There is the basic problem of church discipline – a principle affirmed by all Churches! Heretics must be corrected and, when found incorrigible, excommunicated. On this matter, the Roman Catholic Church has […]
