Contemplations

A SELFISH MAN'S VERSION OF THE LORD'S PRAYER While our lips utter the Lord’s Prayer, our hearts often say another. It goes something like this: My servant, Who art in heaven, Hollow is Thy name. My own kingdom come; my own will be done, On earth, and later in heaven. Give me this day--gimme, gimme, gimme. And forgive me my trespasses, But don’t expect me to forgive others. Bail me out when I give in to temptation, And deliver me from the consequences of sin, For in my kingdom I will wield power, And expect glory forever.  A man. From the gospel according to Becky Wall The Queen James Version (Based on Matt. 6:9-13 KJV)

FOOLISH AND STUPID   ARGUMENTS Come campaign time, facebook is set on fire with arguments. The Bible is a good guide for how to approach presenting your views to another person or persons. These are scripture verses but the same principle applies today in other venues. How painful are honest words! But what do your  arguments  prove? Job 6:25 No one calls for justice; no one pleads a case with integrity. They rely on empty  arguments , they utter lies; they conceive trouble and give birth to evil. Isaiah 59:4 We demolish  arguments  and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. II Corinthians 10:5 I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding  arguments . Colossians 2:4 Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid  arguments , because you know they produce quarrels. II Timothy 2:23 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and  arguments  and quarrels about the law, be

A DEMON CALLED PORN I am a demon called Porn. Among powers and principalities I rank high. A host of fallen angels serve me; We answer to the father of lies. Few know that I am addictive; I’ve hidden my secret well. I’ll torture mankind on earth, Then finish the job in hell. I display my images across the screens, Of movies, videos and tv. On the pages of books and magazines, To be viewed in secrecy. I prey on young boys; they’re a delicacy to me-- Young men for whom God has a plan. I’ll lure each with shock, seduce him with pleasure, Suck his life, and leave the shell of a man. I sit on a throne, crowned in great splendor, And with spiritually dead bones pick my teeth. But when knees hit the floor, my power is no more. Thanks to Christ, whose crown was a wreath.
