"Can You Hear?"


Acts 28:25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
 26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
 27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

 28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.


“Can You Hear?”

Paul 2000 years ago
as if spoken this day
thus the Gospel sent
divine messengers
Prophets – Apostles
before – then – now
the reception the same
out of focus distorted
too many in coliseums
maybe 12M Saturday
distracted from purpose
unable to perceive
knowing not to listen
even today the same
millions distracted
never to ask, 'is it I'
while a Prophet speaks
with Apostles called
on this the Sabbath
all to come and hear
and yet few there be
to feel the Spirit
left as Paul said
2000 years ago!
