Social Gospel

It is true that God has a positive effect on Society.
Yet, for those whose gospel it is to fix society
They are among the world's worst offenders.
God cares very little about society and our impact on it.
Rather, if society were to be ill, and falling apart
Even because of the Gospel being preached,
And the Gospel produced tyranny---
Like it has numerous times in the past---
Then we ought still cling to it
Not for the society's soul,
But for our own.

536

The Earth groaned
Spitting forth its ash;
For a year was the sun darkened
And Julian's plague crept forth
Upon Earth and all her inhabitants.
Empires did crumble,
Mists covered the earth,
The winter lingered all year;
Camlan would lose Arthur his life,
For Krakatau angrily belched forth his fury.

Exactly a decade later
Had a man been born
Whose accursed son
Would force myriads
To bow in recitation
To that Idol Sin.

Wordsworth

Your friend Robert Southey,
More intelligent,
A memory like an elephant's,
Wrote copious works of fiction
Laden with facts and history.
Yet, you, in your simplistic genius,
Had creative mind.
Less intelligent than Robert,
You multitudinously put
Your things together and created art.

Why You Need Christ

"I have not sinned."
Prideful, Vain, Idolatrous.
"Yet I have not hurt anyone."
Selfish, at Enmity with God, Deceitful.
"God forgives, and evil does not exist."
Unmerciful, Backbiter, Hater of Good.
"I meditate and form my own wisdome."
Idle Worship, Self Seeking, Boastful of Thy Sin.
"Christ did not die, save for His own sin."
Liar, Slanderer, Disobedient to Thy Parents.
"I am energy, therefore a part of God."
Adulterer, Blasphemer, Thief.

For all of this, thou art guilty
Of eternal perdition
And shalt be cast
Into the lake of
Fire.

Gödel’s Theorem on God’s Existence

Gödel's theorem at its simplest,
Is this, "If it is necessary for God to exist,
"Then God must exist."

Simply put, civilization is falling apart without belief in Him.
Basic human constructs of right and wrong are ignored.
People are attempting to abolish basic human rights such as freedom of speech, mobility and religion through the absence of belief.
Goodness cannot exist---purely---if there is not a God
Because then Goodness would always be relegated back 
To men and their faulty judgments.
We seem unable to even define gender without belief in God
The most basic and obvious of all truths.
People don't understand what love is without Him.

It seems, that it is necessary for there to be a God; therefore, He exists.

The Cycle of the Fly

A fly in the spring,
Is a colonist,
Is strong, sleek,
Nimble...
It must survive, to breed.

A fly in the summer
Lives in a Golden Age.
They are fat, strong,
And diverse.
It lives, without fear of starvation.

A fly in the fall
Lives in its decadence...
All the fruits are consumed,
It forgets how to forage
And is sluggish.
It dies, while the strongest survive to reseed the next generation.

The Time I Shrank

I contemplated on Genius---
Alexander, Leonardo,
Nicola Tesla, Thomas Jefferson,
I realized each of these men
Were endowed with genius.
They would be like every other man
Had not Providence blessed them
With the skills they are famous for.

While walking down the street
I felt myself physically shrink.
The world became smaller,
I became smaller, realizing
Genius followed me,
Like the Ancient Greeks understood.
Alexander was commissioned
To destroy Tyre, thus his genius.
Leonardo was commissioned to 
Begin the poring out over nature and anatomy.
Thomas Jefferson was commissioned
To build a nice government for God's elect.
Nicola Tesla, also, was commissioned
To build the best comforts for God's elect.
Every Genius throughout history,
Were those endowed with providential force...

I had opened up my book of mythology,
And came right to the page
Describing monsters. And there,
It also described Prodigies.
That same day, I opened up
Right to Euclid's theorem on Odd Numbers---
Nothing could be more literary,
Yet I randomly chose it.
It was genius which follows me
And opened me up to those pages.
Not I---for that is Genius.
It does not come from within.
It builds while you are its tool.

Yet, Genius cannot save you.
It can only guide your hand in her work.
For genius belongs to everyone
Who becomes prodigious in their exercises.
That is how the Greeks understood it.
And I shall too, for by seeing
Prodigies on the page I prodigiously
Opened up to, so with it I looked up the word Prodigy
Today, and found the true meaning of genius.
Genius is not something we do---
Rather, it follows us
Like when I opened up Nietzsche
And prodigiously found the passage
Pertaining to the Lion, Dragon and Child. 
Genius builds her things, and we are the tool by which she fashions.
And it was Genius who was with God at the foundation of the Worlds.
For she is Wisdom, Whom bestows upon whom God bestows.

Genius

Let us go back to the old understanding---
Genius made the grapes grow,
Genius made the performance good,
Genius made the chef cook perfection,
Genius opens a book to the perfect page,
Genius follows man, giving him endowments
Over the arts, the sciences; the judgments of the law.

For, to I, Genius is Providence.
Genius is God's holy hand guiding
Us. Without such Word being a guiding principle
Man or Woman can do no thing.

For, the providential reach of Genius comes 
Not from within the mind, but the prodigious
Inspiration of God's endowment over the hand and her talent.

A Sermon on Satan

Satan is a little bit like Modern Christianity's Santa Claus. It's not that he doesn't exist, it's the thought that Satan is malignant, and only acts by his own authority. As if Satan does whatever he pleases, and is in total rebellion against God. That he acts on his own authority, and isn't given authority by Christ Himself.

When we understand that bad things happen to us according to God's plan, and that Satan only can act or harm us by God's authority, we understand that our suffering is a part of God's authority. There is no prosperity which God does not bestow, and also no disaster. God is the Author of both good and evil. Does this make God evil? No. For, when you discipline a child for his misbehavior, it is evil, but it is still being done for goodness' sake. When you condemn a criminal to die, it is evil, but it is wrought for goodness' sake. Satan, of course, is vengeful and angry, and would destroy us if he could; but, unless Satan is given that authority by God, he cannot touch us.

And, we must understand that suffering is ubiquitous. Satan shall cause many to suffer, especially good people. Being under fiery trial is not evidence of sin in the Christian's life. It is, rather, evidence of God's holy tribulation, trying the Christian in a furnace to refine them like silver. And to bring out all of the poisonous lead. That is what God is doing by trying us in the furnace. He is drawing out our iniquity, and is fuller's soap. It stings, it burns, it leaves our skin raw. But, it ultimately cleanses us of our impurities.

If you're under affliction, understand God doesn't allow Satan into your life for no reason. It is either to destroy you---if you have no faith---or it is to make you a better person. God can bring destruction upon children, elderly, men, women, whomever He pleases. And when that destruction comes, we must face it and hold onto God like Jacob did the Christophany. Even if God wounds us, we must hold onto Him, as the wound is for our salvation. There will be an end to the wounds and the chastisement. There will be an end to all suffering. And we, being wise, must hold onto Christ with every ounce we have. We must not revile Satan, and say, "He is evil, and does this thing according to his own will." He does not. Satan acts according to God's will, and only has power to destroy up to God's allotted amount. After which, God will not allow Satan to abuse you anymore. When you've reached the end of your trial, when you've reached the end of the hot Chastisement, God will build up your walls, and not let the enemies through the gate. God will bless you at the end of every trial. He will rest you, feed you, like a shepherd goading his flock will cause them to lie down in the pastures, and feed upon the sweet grasses in the meadows. He will lead you to new grasslands, when the previous one is all chewed up. And if you go astray, He will leave those sheep, and come find you.

That is Christ. Satan is God's rod, which comes down upon wickedness. He either reaps goodness in the Christian, or if their sins cause backsliding, he reaps destruction. Satan is meant to either destroy, or he is meant to refine the Christian and make them righteous. Understand this, and you shall be given unto greater blessing, and not be afraid of Satan. Satan is a false brother, one who walks nigh through trials, and comforts with flatteries, while he on the back end is the reaper of your misery. He walks close by, feigning love, but on the other side is creating the havoc and orchestrating your captivity. And Satan works through all people; his unclean spirits are in all the people given to sin, and they create a vice grip by which Satan tightens his shackles around the Christian. Yet, do not fear him. For these things are all ordained and predetermined by God. Satan will, as it were, one day cease from his assault, for the walls of Jerusalem shall be built. And no longer will he be able to tear them down, or assail them. So long as the Christian stops sinning. If the Christian returns to sin, then the walls shall be broken asunder, and there will be no helper this time.

Therefore, repent. And keep one's heart clean.
