HEBREWS 1 and 2:

2 Replies

To whom did the Father say, “Son.”

You are my Holy One…

Sent to earth

For human birth,

Announcing salvation has come?

–

Even in Moses’ time,

clues to this royal line…

Were there to see–

Everybody–

That to the search was inclined.

–

“Little less than the angels” Jesus,

Came as one of us…

Fulfilling Law–

Only He went that far–

Proving Father God as just.

–

Who are we to complain,

When  like Christ we endue pain…

Them who died

Totally denied

God though they saw His flame!

–

Will we believers

Be like those deceivers…

Having the form

But hearts not warmed,

By our holy Redeemer?

–

Escaping a righteous God,

Without Gospel shoes shod…

Were there snakes

Would we embrace

His comforting chastening rod?

–

Look to Him on the tree,

Bruised and suffered for thee…

Worship the King

By being,

Known as living the Same!

HOW INDEED TO HONOR CHRIST?

Leave a reply

We are His children you say,

But He speaks–you walk away—

Hypocrites all–

At Christ’s feet fall–

Before ye are burned on that Day!

–

Burned by your own lust

And mealy-mouthed lack of trust…

All-Mighty God

You noise abroad

As deity gone bust!

–

Honor the Father and Son,

Shun not the Spirit—be done

With self deception–

There’s no reception

For any double-minded one!

PAID THE PRICE ONCE–FOR ALL TIME!

Jeshua* paid the price

For all our sinful vice…

On the cross

Our sin was tossed

Far away–so nice!

–

But not for everyone

Jesus’ sacrifice was done…

Those who believe

In Him receive

What He hoped for everyone!

–

Too many skeptics browbeaten

By Evil through peers defeating…

Opening of eyes

To embrace Paradise,

Their salvation is fleeting.

–

Many blind claim to see,

Perhaps other deities…

There is ONE

By creating was done,

To Lord Jesus get down on your knees!

–

Why do fanatics destroy,

Monuments to our Saviour** boy?

Because they see

Destroy history,

Then for Christ it “can’t be employed”.

–

Even the very rocks

Shout of our Savior’s chops…

King of all kings

Heaven rings,

And never, no never stops!

–

–Jonathan Caswell

*Jeshua is the Hebrew version (more or less) of the name Jesus, which is Greek.

**Saviour…the European spelling of the title.  American spelling is “Savior”.

APOCALYPSE APPROACHING!

According to GROUND ZERO,

Trump may be the hero….

final man

to withstand,

A one-world government credo.

–

Similarly as how foretold,

Opposition is getting bold…

Both Houses packed

With folks who’ll enact,

What would allow NATO a foothold!

–

Shadow government’s in place,

Higher-ups we won’t face…

Secretly

Destroying the free,

Waiting to play their “Ace”.

–

—Jonathan Caswell

*GROUND ZERO, available by radio and on the Web, with Clyde Lewis, has frequently warned of political undercurrents in American politics.

AMAZON—OR ORIENTAL—WARRIOR WOMAN

Leave a reply

How sad and yet common,

That warrior women solemn…

Are seen two ways

In opposing gaze,

Defying the wisdom of Solomon.

–

The women’s warrior class,

Struggles against typecast…

Female roles

Stuck in pigeon holes,

Which some think a thing of the past.

–

Men on the other hand,

See female warriors grand…

Stories like Xena

Or scant-clad Athena,

Excite those male sex glands!

–

Thus MEN don’t take seriously,

War against patriarchy…

A male dominated

World overrated,

From which free spirits would be freed.

A SPRITE WHISPERED

Leave a reply

A SPRITE…whispered in my ear,

Where have our people gone….

Something called “Democracy”

They claim has gone terribly wrong!

–

They ignore us despite our cries,

They say the winner’s wrong…

They look at us with evil eyes

No more to sing our songs?

–

They claim all the voters are

taken by a plot…

They’re not happy with the choice

that the people got?

–

Even sprites and fairies know

That corruption is evil…

but will these former friends see that—

Maybe they never will!

–

I guess like Puff the Dragon,

Who lived by the sea….

these spoiled children are no friends

Of folks thinking positively!

–

How we miss our friends who were

filled with love who now hate…

When will they stop this foolish quest

and come to us and celebrate?

Poet and friendly to fairies in general.  😀

PSALM 120: 6-7 AN OPINION

1 Reply

There are times I’d like to be under a rock

When arrows of hate fly by…

When  mobs shouting slogans are the ones being cocked

As a rapid-fire gun letting fly!

–

I preach peace and understanding

Of a human as evil as they…

But if they don’t get what they want this very second

Rational people are blown away!

–

Do you know the rulers who denied and ignored you

Are the very hateful ones yelling charge?

Higher-ups in the background. egging you forward

Only want their power enlarged?

–

“Progressives” don’t care about your families

Your finding jobs or taking a breath

Of freedom–they desire you stay dependent

And if desired–send you to death.

–

Raging at beck and call of professional handlers

Is not the way to be free…

Stop and think who you are really serving,

Will you listen to reason—MAYBE?

–

I call for peace and understanding

Not hate and blind fury…

Mobs tear down walls and break into disorder,

The reasoned among you better hurry!

–

On this rock I stand,

who will stand with me?

Will anyone see danger in the wind?

If no one else can vouch for a jury

Then civil rule may soon end!

–

An Opinion Piece–the Scripture says, in effect, “when I am for peace, they are for war!”

WHO HERE IS REALLY FOR WAR,

OR CAN SEE THE LOOMING DANGER OF RIOTING MOBS CAUGHT UP WITH ONE IDEA—NOT CARING FOR ANYONE’S OR ANYONE ELSE?

–

wake up you people.

–

–Jonathan Caswell, poet with as much right to his opinion as those being encouraged to riot in the streets—or trumpet hate here!

EXCUSE ME…!

Leave a reply

Since when was this holiday

A Christian jamboree…

And when was it about Christ’s birth

Exclusively?

–

According to those who should know,

It was Winter Solstice time…

The sun was at its lowest point

And then began to climb…!

–

Christians–former pagans most–

Denied their revelry…

Church leaders wanted evangelized

Pagans who would see…

Christ’s birth celebrated

In holiness and respect,

Become interested and

Come into the church direct.

–

When the church went political with Emperor Constantine,

Everyone had to join the thing…

It wasn’t necessarily by choice or belief–

You HAD TO HEAR THE ANGELS SING!

–

Nonbelievers too

Had their own “underground” pews…

The “old ways” by the faithful stays

But not in public view.

–

Are the roles reversed,

When Christians can be cursed…?

The church’s power can’t make them cower

Or defeat  a pagan purse.

–

Most do not see the fetters–

Getting worse before it’s better…

Christ is King but suffering

Is for those whose faith matters.

–

Keep then looking up,

Your redemption draweth nigh…

We will share the communion cup

Till anew with Christ, alive!

THANK GOD FOR ISRAEL!!!

Leave a reply

Thank God for Israel,

Democracy’s citadel…

In the middle

Of Arabs who fiddle,

Making the Holy Land hell.

–

Israelis treat all alike,

Their neighbors do the opposite out of spite…

Hate inculcating

Their children berating,

Whenever they see the Light.

–

Attitudes anti-Semitic

Are totally pathetic…

Israeli employment

Brings Arab enjoyment

Of the good life–that’s very specific!

–

Only the Evil One blinds

So many intelligent minds…

God will save

Israel brave,

Despite soldiers, guns and mines!

AGITATORS’ HOLY GROUND (AN AUTHOR’S OPINION)

Leave a reply

Agitators on their holy ground,

With lots of pawns around…

College kids

With minds on skids,

Easy to push around.

–

Community organizers

As propaganda advisors…

Marshall troops–

These kids (easy dupes)–

Blind and no wiser!

–

Welcome to their hell,

For kids organized very well…

Emotion blinds

Rational minds,

Merchandise easy to sell.
