“Friends Passing”

 
“Friends Passing”

Lost in the maze of time/space
busy lives and many distractions
sometimes old friends to seek
while others things interfere
maybe two cars on a highway
passing friends ever so close
or else in the same store to be
mostly we miss without knowing
but these are our passing friends
when too often we read papers
to know they too have passed
as each of us someday will
remembering the good memories
these our now passing friends!

“Study the Scriptures”

We don’t get to know all things
yet to know the truth of all things
we need to study and to pray
given the gift of discernment
understanding common sense
confirmation comes with faith
knowledge comes from works
each Sabbath Day we prepare
another week to fight the world
finding strength and recharged
we learn to study the Scriptures
listening to the still small voice
we don’t get to know all things
yet to know the truth of all things!

"Without Agency" (short essay)

 
Can Heavenly Father have his Son intercede with the affairs of the Earth and thus remove individual agency? If Heavenly Father choose to have His Son intercede he could. However, each person in his Mortal Probation agreed in the pre-existence to have agency - to be able to choose right or wrong. Satan's plan was that no one would have agency - and all would be saved but be in his power and glory. Thus the first and only real war was started and continues into our present day. Of course Satan knows it is easy to blame God - or say 'He wishes it" but it isn't true. We who've mortal bodies of flesh, bone and blood voted for it (the choice to decide either right or wrong) - which thus became the reason for the Savior and the Atonement.
If one reads the whole of the Scriptures this becomes quite apparent even with the revisions of many of the various Churches over the past 1800 years - the message is still loud and clear - however you (each) have to leave out the philosophy and rhetoric of men/women and their inherent logismoi - to understand the gnosis of which Paul spoke of specifically and other Prophets have reference since the time of Adam.
If there were no agency the right to choose good or evil - then there would've been no earth! The Plan of Salvation would've been of naught - and thus no need of a Savior or for a Christ.
Without one's right to choose for themselves to be good or evil there is no need for the Mosaic Law or the Scriptures - there would be no need of Prophet's, Apostles or anything relevant to this earth. Without agency there would be no off-spring or marriage.
Satan's plan which many are promoting - of evil caused by God is false! Forever in the eternities past have the choices of good and evil - which is why 1/3 of the host of heaven rebelled and followed Satan because they too did not want agency -
May you each be safe and understand that freedom is never free - and many want only to be told what to do and when - i.e. Satan's Plan - rather than be accountable or responsible for their own actions and thoughts. Be careful the guile of the world is putting tremendous pressure on any who choose to be obedient and righteous. c/ork
 
“Without Agency”

Allowing one to make our decisions
never to take accountability or blame
without responsibility for our actions
never to have to think or to worry
gifts by ‘big brother’ and ‘free food’
socialism and the dole of captivity
chains without locks and no keys
cartels and univeral government
tyrants, dictators, kings and queen
charismatic fools used as the tools
without common sense or reason
senseless meaningless regulations
complied to without any discussion
forced marches in lock-step always
controlled schools with programing
all of this is and was Satan’s plan
for without agency there is chaos
illusions of control but with nothing
understanding that there is on life
without agency one is simply dead!

"Of Works It's Written"




Revelations 18:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

 

Revelations 18:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

Some call James of straw

others say only by faith

still some say Grace alone

understanding not at all;

 

Hear the clarion still call

what did the Savior atone

living within their wraith

missing the Gospel’s call;

 

Faith without works is dead

and found in Peter and Paul

John, Isaiah, Job, Matthew

when coming to the bar;

 

Knowing not who they are

leaving soon only a few

other’s in bitterness’ gall

leaving Scriptures unread!

Precious crafting for pelf
coming from the guild’s
using ivory and gold within
with the thyine-wood once
today extremes still found
wherein waste and pillaging
whores gather to seduce
the Prophets are stoned
the righteous condemned
amid the burning fires
royalty sit upon thrones
made of thyine-wood!

Causing great waves awash
increasing in size spreading
tsunamis reaching far shores
displacing thousands of all
disasters unknown unseen
thousands of years ago
or yet in the future to be
casting a millstone into water
without concern for results
thousands of miles away
yet to be recorded today!

Just one pebble to cast
making a ripple upon the sea
further growing outward
yet casting many confusion
discord and chaos happens
carefully one must consider
when casting a pebble
what the results might be
as others seek to imitate
drowning the beauty of one!

“Hysteria”

 
“Hysteria”

7/24/13
 
Coming from within the bowels
sweltering heat of some hell
emitting an odorous gas vile
spreading rapidly place to place
never resting or hesitation
mass hysteria of some hatred
screaming to be heard merit
while having nothing of value
gaining time for theft and chaos
recharging organized by others
gleefully watching murders
claiming no blame at all
just some hysteria fermented
within their bowels of lust!

“Aseptic”

The blandness of a politic
free from emotions of feeling
greed, lust, dishonor always
cold beyond the freezing point
thus found without warmth
spewing wide and far their lies
listening to none but a politic
feeding frenzies everyday
broken mirrors and homes
tarnished beyond salvage
self-predating within a cell
cannibalism within society
yet claiming to be aseptic
denying the plagues spread!

“Without Meaning”

 
“Without Meaning”
 
cji
7/23/13
 
Sometime ago words had meaning
then it was thought why is this so
these words could be left leaning
on a teeter-totter going to and fro;
 
Without meanings then nonsense
no laws to be enforced or written
chaos would reign past tense
and all of lovers to be smitten;
 
Definitions and dictionaries lost
no more books published to be
think of the savings and the cost
maybe even saving one more tree;
 
Gibberish and slang to be the rule
liars would be exempted from all
being illiterate would be very cool
no more school rolls thus to call;
 
Sadly this day has come to be real
nothing means what was intended
playing at the beguiling of one’s zeal
everything of value now pretended!

“Taking Back to Another Age” (short essay)


 “Taking Back to Another Age”

cji

7/22/13

Take yourself back to the “Archaic Age” (750BC-480BC) – wherein we can find a very familiar story which matches our own today and especially the influence of the ridiculous wealthy in the world.

This group includes multiple Americans: The Walton Family (Wal-Mart/Sam’s); The Koch Family (Pipelines/Chemicals/Forests); The Mars Family(think the Mars Bar); The Cox Family (Cable/Communications); The Pritzker Family (Hyatt/Industrial); The Cargill Family (Agribusiness); The Duncan Company (Energy/49K Pipelines); The Ziff Family (Hedge Funds); The Newhouse Family (Publications); The SC Johnson Family (Household products); The Hearst Family (Newspapers/Communications); The Bass Family (Oil); The Lauder Family (Cosmetics); The Bechtel Family (Engineering); The Stryker Family (Medical Devices); The Reyes Family (Overseas Foods/Beer);  The Fisher Family (GAP Retailer); The Marriott Family (Hotels/Catering).  (Note: This list includes the 15 wealthiest families in the world – less the drug lords; monarchies; dictators and others who fall into this group of people.)

In the worldly aspect there are 442+ Billionaires in the US. Altogether there are 1,426 Billionaires in the world at the beginning of 2013 – this small group control the world’s economy!  This is an Oligarchy thus we return the idea I’m following from the “Archaic Age” or also the Age of Homer.

In the age of Homer – there was a way to control the government without actually being involved – and this was by sponsoring a ‘Tyrant’ – one who is charismatic, does social good works – but is only at the beck and call of the wealthy sponsor or sponsors.

There is much more about this – but just putting forth that we might not be looking at near history – but old history in what is happening. Chaos does not serve well the very wealthy as they might become targets of opportunity. However, revolution also goes against their overall greed and desires. Thus what is that they’re after? Answer this and we’ll have a better handle on where all of this is going today. Remember even the most rabid terrorist leader (funder) understands that their real goals have little to do with the Qur’an or religious zealotry but more with a means to control, justify and otherwise muster hoards of followers to do their will, i.e. intellectually deficient slaves!

 Thus the apparent effect of all of this is to cause an appearance of Chaos which will want the population to turn to those who remain calm and have the resources to correct the situation with negotiation and compromise. Which in turn leads to more and more government programs and less and less individual initiatives. The wealthy cherish this situation as they sit and pull the puppet strings – having the insider information as to where to best place their resources in the market and who to groom next to take the place of their incumbent tool (fool). Thus for the past century the politics of the US have been slowly (quicker in some cases) molded to the needs of the wealthy and none others. In the age of Homer this indeed was the case for close to three centuries before war and famine changed the landscape to others more powerful. Yet, one must remember that it wasn’t until the American experiment that any nation actually had a part in choosing its collective political leader. Of course in America this lasted all of two Presidents until the MSM and dirty politics took over from the time of Jefferson until today.

The total value of the Oligarchy in the US took full force with the direct election of the Senators – making all elected politicians accountable to someone (or a group) who had the money to put them and keep them in office. Fraud at the polling places – fear mongering – physical intimidation – violation of any laws which do not assist their goals – and worst of all beguiling the decent citizens of the nation with their blatant abuses of power. This is not any different than one can find throughout history (written) where one man/woman has dominion over another. Give the people a hedonistic lifestyle – in their daily lives – ignore virtue – honesty – fair play – morals – and destroy at any cost innocence at the earliest age possible. i.e. the disruption of the family unit and the love and teaching which takes place within the home.

Food for thought for those who think – Hitler – and the others of his ilk then and now have anything new that they’re using as the root of their power and corruptions. Thus recycled, used up, frauds, liars, chests, baby killers, murderers, and others will continue to succeed and dominate what once was good and of virtue!

 “Taking Back”

7/22/13

 

Taking back what’s been lost

Terrible and horrible the cost;

 

Too late – too late is so said

That the Constitution is dead;

 

No longer able to fight today

For too long we’ve had delay;

 

Congress and the courts agree

Doing nothing better than to see;

 

Cherished hopes sadly are dead

Where the chronicles are read;

 

Terrible and horrible the cost

Taking back what’s been lost!
