• My Eschatology

    The End Times can seem scary
    Let God not tarry

    The Church will be taken away
    The unregenerate shall stay

    The glorious rapture is pure truth
    It will happen forsooth

    We’ll meet Christ in the air
    Of the wicked none shall He spare

    The Lamb’s marriage supper shall commence
    On earth will be the Holy Spirit’s absence

    After seven years of heavenly mirth
    We’ll return with Christ to earth

    Christ shall rule the millennial kingdom
    It will be more glorious than you can fathom

    Next is the new heaven and new earth
    It is only for those given second-birth

  • A Modern Crusade

    I was on
    A pure white steed
    For war, I had a need

    We were fighting
    The Saracens in the Holy Land
    With my men, we took a stand

    We had a huge army
    To retake the land for the Lord
    I gave the call then raised my sword

    We nuked the cities
    Where the Saracens did dwell
    We killed them all and sent them to hell

    Finally in Jerusalem
    We celebrated our total victory
    We made history

  • More Gospel Meditations

    Nature cries out
    With evidence
    For the Creator
    The proof
    Is clear
    There is no reason
    To fear
    Light out of darkness
    Jesus is the Light
    Of the world
    He is the Good Shepherd
    Who receives all
    That His Father
    Has given him
    We are
    Wretched sinners
    Sinning constantly
    As wicked as a devil
    Yet Christ loved us
    So much that He died
    For our abominable sins
    This precious
    Sinless Lamb of God
    He bore God’s
    Full wrath
    He gave up His Spirit
    At Calvary
    He was buried
    But the grave
    Could not hold Him
    On the third day
    He rose
    This was the most
    Significant event
    In human history
    He proved He was
    Fully God
    And fully man
    Jesus defeated
    Death, sin, and Satan
    We come to faith
    Through the
    Effectual calling
    Scripture penetrates
    Our hearts
    And the Holy Spirit
    Quickens our dead souls
    We are now alive
    Spiritually
    We are
    New creations
    When Scripture
    Enters our minds
    We repent sincerely
    And believe the gospel
    These twin gifts
    Are from God
    Thus regeneration
    Precedes faith
    We who are born again
    Now have the power
    Of Christ in us
    Our sins were
    Imputed to Him
    On the cross
    When we are made alive
    Spiritually
    Christ’s perfect
    Righteousness
    Is imputed to us
    God no longer
    Views us as sinners
    He sees us as
    His children
    Through adoption
    Unblemished

  • Jesus Christ

    Great is our sin
    But greater
    Is our Redeemer’s love
    Christ was our propitiation

    Our flesh
    Has a stronghold
    But in Christ
    We are spotless and fresh

    We may have health issues
    God can heal us
    We must keep spreading
    The Good News

    We may be slandered by men
    But our Lord will defend us
    We the Prodigal Son
    Welcomed home from the pigpen

    Our Lord is the King of Kings
    He is the Alpha and Omega
    His Kingdom shall have no end
    The angel His praises sings

  • My Story

    I am lame
    I can’t play life’s game

    My mind is broken
    Sometimes I feel God forsaken

    I am a cripple
    I am uncomprehensible

    I have racing thoughts
    They bother me lots

    I have intrusive voices
    My mind is in pieces

    I have terrible hallucinations
    Due to my mental machinations

    I long to be whole
    But that isn’t my role

    I am often depressed
    I’m frequently stressed

    I have many a deep-seated delusion
    Reality is just an illusion

    I will be healed one day
    Until then I pray

    To be with Christ forever
    Is my hope in stormy weather

    I shall finally be whole
    And saved from Sheol

    I have the mind of Christ you see
    It saves me from much misery

  • A Poem for Christmas Day

    Christ was born
    In a humble stable
    This was no fable

    Gloria in excelsis Deo
    The living Word of God Almighty
    The Logos would be our remedy

    Our federal head Adam
    Fell into sin
    Mankind needed a propitiation

    Jesus was sinless
    The Lamb of God would die
    God’s wrath He would satisfy

    The grave could not hold Christ
    On the third day, He rose
    It is us the elect whom God chose

    When the Holy Spirit
    Quickens our soul
    We are regenerated in full

    Next, we receive the twin gifts
    Of faith and repentance
    Of our salvation we have assurance

    We must mortify our flesh
    It’s so sinful
    Our bodies are wretchful

  • Christmas Eve Meditations

    Rejoice
    Christ was born today
    In a humble manger far away

    In David’s city of Bethlehem
    He was born to a virgin Mary
    The Son of God came as a baby

    Angels sung praise
    As Jesus slept
    His love we who are saved accept

    Jesus grew
    Into a strong man
    He would follow the Father’s plan

    Christ the Son of Man
    He healed the sick instantly
    He can do the same for you and me

    Jesus did many miracles
    He walked on water without a fault
    Peter did too until he had doubt

    He raised Lazarus from death to life
    Christ cast out demons from men
    This fact has never been forgotten

    At Calvary, He suffered and died
    Christ bore God’s full wrath for our sin
    He was our propitiation

    On the third day
    He rose from the dead
    We are saved by Christ’s bloodshed

    We are chosen by God
    Predestined to salvation
    This is cause for our elation

    We can never lose our elect status
    If we have been regenerated
    Our souls are no longer degenerated

    One day we will have glorified bodies
    We’ll live with Jesus on the new earth
    All of this is because of the new birth

  • Spring Meditation

    I went for a walk
    It was a sunny spring day
    The warmth from the sun
    Made me feel at ease
    There was a cool wind blowing
    All around me
    It was very refreshing
    I stepped into
    The enchanted woods
    Mighty oak trees
    Towered above me
    I walked past maple trees
    Birds sang together in harmony
    Such sweet melodies
    I spied toads
    Running under fallen tree limbs
    A lone bunny raced past me
    The trees were so abundant
    And so densely packed together
    They made a green canopy
    I took a nap
    While sitting under a tree
    I dreamed of Eden
    When God walked with man
    I contemplated
    The tree Christ hung on
    When He alone paid the price
    For our sins
    I love spending time
    In nature
    It is good
    For my mental health
    I walked back home
    This was a day
    I will not forget

  • Immanuel

    Immanuel, God is with us
    He who is faultless

    Christ came as a helpless babe
    So hell man could escape

    The incarnation of God as a man
    Was all according to the Father’s plan

    Fully human and fully divine
    Christ came from David’s bloodline

    He was born to the Virgin Mary
    Give Christ all the glory

  • Praise the Lord

    Christ came from above
    Because of love

    He died on a tree
    To set mankind free

    Mankind was spiritually dead
    And full of dread

    But our Redeemer came to earth
    So men could have a second birth

    The Holy Spirit quickens our soul
    We won’t go to Sheol

    We are a new creation
    And full of elation

    Mankind is born again
    No longer a prisoner to sin

    We shall glorify God all the time
    This is truly sublime
