Christmas, The Sequel (Poem)

Earth’s first Christmas! T’was once the greatest day

that ever was!

At last, the arrival of God’s Genesis Seed.¹

He would soon snatch victory, out of demons’ lying jaws.

He would die, then resurrect, our ‘sin case’ to plead.

God so loves the seed, time and harvest principle,

That He made His own Son a Seed, placed in Mary’s womb.

She did not imagine such could be possible,

And this Seed would soon be planted in a rich man’s tomb.

Through His great victory on Calvary and in His tomb,

He overwhelmingly trumped Christmas as

Earth’s Greatest Day!

On Resurrection Day, He became the Church’s

promised Groom.

Betrothed to Him, we no longer have to be devils’ prey.

These two Days opened the door for us to become

Son lights,

To shine Light in a darkening world we’d soon inherit.

But great though they were, these two Days only serve

as highlights.

In God’s Mind, they were merely a collective deposit.

God’s Book reveals for the number, 3, He has a penchant! ²

So with Earth’s two Greatest Days now

having come and gone,

This is the time to ponder, ‘With what Seed is Earth

now pregnant??

If Earth is promised a third Greatest Day,

when will it dawn??’

Earth’s two Greatest days were preceded, recognizably,
By times of deep darkness, and Heaven silently active.³

After about 400 years and 3 days, respectively,

Darkness was then blasted with LIGHT…

and Seeds successive.

Friend,

To Earth, a third Greatest Day is indeed promised.

About this Day, The Bible is not subtle.

It’s the last fruit that God’s Genesis Seed prefaced.

I call this promised Day, Christmas, The Sequel.

Far from a mere 24 hours, it’ll last a thousand years! ⁴

But before it comes, for worse darkness, be on the lookout,

And to Heaven’s silent activity, tune your heart’s ears,

As God prepares this ole world for His due justice payout.

First, temporarily from this world, The Church

will checkout.⁵

Then, after we are gone, the most gross evil will breakout!

Across the world, peoples and their governments

will freak out!

In favor of a world ruler, governments will phase out.

For so many folks across the world, it will be lights out!

From punishing judgments, others will simply be worn out.

After 7 gruesome years, evil still won’t be knocked out!

But then, the world will then hear an Archangel’s

victory SHOUT!

Earth, then tilled as if prepared to plant a new garden,

Will be ready to receive God’s last Genesis Seed.

By this same Jesus, who from the grave was begotten,

Earth’s prior Great Days, Millennial Days will now succeed.

Not a borrowed donkey, this time clouds He will ride.

Every remaining eye will see Him, not one will hide.

Locked up for a thousand years, devils won’t deride.

For a while, across the Earth, righteousness will abide.

Though you may not like the notion, Christmas, The Sequel,

About this third Great Day on Earth, you should have

NO doubt.

Please, let’s agree to not fight over my poem’s title.

Just know THIS is what Christmas was really all about!

Millennial ‘Day’, The Christmas Sequel

Compared to Christmas, so much more Joyful!
