POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
A dictator will "make war on the saints [the Christian nations],gain power over every nation," (Revelation 13.7).This conquest implies world war. Yes, NUCLEAR war would explain "sudden destruction" at Rapture(1 Thessalonians 4.16-5.3)
How to Explain the Failure of Our Gov't to Deter Russian Attack
It's not just that Russia ended the Cold War and made peace, tricking us into thinking the threat was gone.And so we disarmed.No, there are two other reasons why our Deterrent arsenal will no longer deter Russian Attack. (1) We have changed the definition of the danger of nuclear war. Our leaders used to think that deliberate Russian Attack was the danger. but the squishy liberals now say "accidental nuclear attack" (computer malfunction) is the greater danger. Their solution is to reduce the number of nukes as fast as possible and as low as possible. This, of course, is madness.As we...

Why Is Paul's Commentary on the Fall of Man Important?
In Romans 1.18-32 Paul the Apostle is basically demythologizing the Fall of Man (Genesis 2-3), making it more realistic, By explaining what really happened, Paul transforms Genesis 2-3 much like a caterpillar maturing into a butterfly. By doing so Paul acts as Christ's means for "fulfilling the [Torah] Law"(Matthew 5.17). In the sense that an acorn is fulfilled by it's growing into a tall oak tree.Gen 2-3 was never meant to remain as it is(embryonic), like an acorn is only a means to an end.
Gen. 2-3 isn't the only passage that Paul magnifies, enlarges. He takes Genesis...

Is The Bible a Monolith, a Homogenous Whole -- No-No-No !!
The Pastor asked if I believe the whole Bible is all true. I replied, ""Truth came by Jesus Christ," quoting from John 1.17. "It says, The Law was given by Moses but ..truth came by..Christ." So the New Testament is making a sharp distinction between the Torah and the Gospel. If we say the Bible contains the same level of truth from start to finish, we are closing our eyes to what the Apostle John is telling us.He deliberately wrote John 1.17 to separate the Torah Law (the 5 books of Moses) from the New Testament. Why? Because the two are NOT on a par. The Bible is not one big monolith of the...

Not Just Destructive, Russian Attack Will Be SHAMEFUL
I've read that Russia's economy(two trillion dollars)
is just 1/8th the size of America's(17 trillion),
and 1/16th that of the West (USA and EU combined)..
Russia is so poor and America so rich that it will be totally SHAMEFUL
If we let Russia launch a punishing nuclear attack against us,
with Russia then ESCAPING our retaliatory strike !!!
Russia destroys us, but we don't get to destroy Russia !!

General Revelation is Equal to Special Revelation in Importance
General Rev" is the study of Nature
In other words, Science (the sciences).
While "Special Rev" is of course the Bible.
Why would I claim that science is equal to (or greater than) the Bible??
Well, for example, the Bible predicts the "sudden destruction"(1 Thessalonians 5.3)
that causes the departure of souls at the Rapture.
But it is SCIENCE that created the missiles and nuclear warheads
which will fulfill those Biblical prophecies !!

What Role Does Masturbation Play in the Making of the Homosexual Mentality
There is masturbation and then there is masturbation.
In other words there are two types of masturbation.
One type is a means to an end.
As you're stroking your penis with your hand,
you're thinking of being inside the vagina of a woman.
So the focus of your love is that woman.
The other type is where masturbation is an end in itself.
No thought is given to the opposite sex.
Attention is totally given over to the penis --
Self centered masturbation as opposed...

Sexual Intercourse as a Metaphor for Dying And Going to Heaven
First, how is sexual intercourse a metaphor for dying?
The penis in the vagina is like a man living in the world.
For the penis is erect, likewise, men walk upright.
As male ejaculation occurs, the erection "dies," sagging like a corpse.
The sperm coming out of the penis is like
the soul rising from the body.at death.
The joy a man feels at ejaculation may be like
the ecstacy the soul feels as it becomes free,
As it is ejected from within the body !!
Like sperm comes out of the head of the penis,
so too the soul exits from the...

How Does Same Sex Eroticism Fall Short??
It's Sexual SELFISHNESS -
A general love of the self is normal, and erotic self love is really quite common.
But we are taught from childhood that selfishness (beyond a certain point) is bad.
A robust concern for OTHERS is part of what's called "the social contract."
And since same-sex erotic love focuses on the same (type of) organ
that you yourself have, it (same-sex eroticism) is considered self centric,
selfishness epitomized - sexual narcissism,even.
Likewise, because the opposite sex (the genitalia thereof) is NOT a copy ...

The Meaning of "the 7 Heads and 10 Horns"(Revelation 12.3; 13.1, etc)
The "10 horns" on the Fourth Beast" (Daniel 7.7)
"are ten kings"(Dan. 7.24) and the ten nations they rule.
The "Fourth Beast" is the great Roman empire
which covered Western Europe (and Northern Africa).
When it fell, the provinces developed into around 30 nations
So the "10 horns which are 10 kings" stand for ten (of those 30) nations.
So while the "ten kings" are kings ruling individual nations,
They are not the Caesars who ruled the Roman empire.
The "7 heads" likewise are "7 kings" (Rev 17.9-10).
But these "7 heads..7...

4 Bible Passages that Point to Russian Attack on Western Europe in the End Time
(By "End Time" I mean since 1948, the year
of the return to existence of the state of Israel.)
FIRST, there is the prophecy of Revelation 13.7:
"The Beast [the Antichrist] will make war
against the [Christian nations] and conquer them,
thereby gaining power over every..nation"(Revelation 13.7).
This is talking primarily about the nations of Europe.
For this term "the Beast" goes back to, originates in, Daniel 7.7,
which introduces us to "the fourth Beast."

Mirrors are Windows, I'll Have You Know !!!
I don't like to think of myself as looking as old as I plainly do.
When I look in the mirror, I gasp, "That can't be me"
I like to think of myself the way i looked 30 years ago.
I feel younger when i do, somehow, it seems.
So I have come up with a solution:
the mirror isn't a mirror at all !!
Rather a window, and the man looking back at me
Isn't me, my reflection, rather its just some old dithering coot
looking in from outside - invading my privacy. The nerve !!
Be on your way, old boy, i feel like sternly ordering him.
If only ridding...

Christ Has Revealed to Us the Month In Which Russian Attack Will Occur
UPDATE UPDATEUPDATE
I now expect RussianAttack/Rapture in late MAY 2020, with the "5 months" of TRIBULATION(Revelation 9.5,10) ending 5 months after that.
Which points to October 2020.
It would begin at PENTECOST and end at TABERNACLES 2020.
Forget the rest of this piece.
.. half of August 2017- - 777 days after the legalizing of gay marriage on 6/26/15. 2017 = 5777 on the HEBREW calendar. The 777 in 5777 gives us the number of days to count off from gay marriage day: 6/26/15. So disregard the dates in the explanation given below, OK ?? (But the...
