Welcome~

Hello and Welcome~


The world is blind to these SEVEN, pivotal facts:

1. The Bible communicates Heaven’s 'Multi-millennial Strategic Plan for Humanity'.

2. There are SEVEN ages appointed for humanity.

3. We are nearing the end of the THIRD age, a pivotal turning point in this strategy.

4. A GREAT falling away from the Christian faith is predicted during the ending days of this THIRD age, as a result of backsliding, general lukewarmness and outright apostasy among the heretofore faithful. Look around and this you will clearly see.

5. Biblical prophecies have been and remain seeds of human history.

6. Yet-fulfilled prophecies, unfolding apace, are worthy of diligent study.

7. Now is the time to get and stay on ‘the right side of Bible prophecy’.

Cornerstone: Cause⇒Effect (Poem, Part 2)

See the series here

Shields Up!, the forceful command of the starship captain,
Known by anyone in the Star Trek generation.
The shield, a force field for incoming enemy fire,
To protect the ship and crew through a pending quagmire.

There are other popular Star Trek commands,
That a committed Star Trekker understands:
Engage! Energize! Beam me up!
To such commands, there’s no letup.

‘Your mind to my mind,
your thoughts to my thoughts’,
A Vulcan mind-meld, probing juggernaut.
No need for a lie detector test!
Into one, two minds will coalesce.

‘What’s your point, J!, in this, your Star Trek revue?’
Some insights with Godly wisdom to imbue.
If you’re perceptive spiritually,
Perhaps you may be well ahead of me.

These Star Trek commands may help to summarize,
Things on God’s heart that He wrote to symbolize.
The Book of Job may be like His first stepping-stone,
His first step toward us …His Bible cornerstone.

If so, this book is worthy of our keen attention,
To perceive insights from what therein is written.
Like the first chapter in a good, but lengthy book.
Revealing opening lines, do not overlook.

Shields up! Around Job, God had a hedge,
Through which satan & co. could not wedge.
But into that hedge, and opening did appear!
Listen now to what from God satan then did hear.

‘All he has is [now] in your power.’
So who told that hedge to move over?!
Hey! Who or what was ...'the hedge bulldozer'?!
To the astute, this should not be a blur.

To these questions, Job himself gives us his answer!
Thus he reveals to us his persistent error.
Though righteous God certainly declared Job to be,
Some things he said and did in fear, so faithfully.

‘What I greatly feared has come upon me,
And what I dreaded has happened to me!’ 1
Shields down! The result of living in satan’s fear,
God’s creative force in him, oops in …reverse gear!

Satan must have missed the gap in Job’s hedge,
So he rushed to push Job over the ledge. 2
Please note, God did not stop what Job had allowed!!!
So why walk in fear, when with faith we’re endowed??

This critical insight from the opening lines,
God’s first message to us, His cornerstone enshrined.
He designed our life with cause-and-effect,
So we won’t be surprised ...at what we get. 3

Shields up! Energize! In this life, Engage!
Guard your righteous hedge, so trials you’ll assuage. 4
‘God’s mind to your mind,
His thoughts to your thoughts’, 5
Staying in faith will foil enemies’ plots!!!
----------
1 See: Job 3:25
2 While satan is indeed crafty and has eons of experience, he’s apparently not as smart as he makes out to be, otherwise, he would have perceived/seen the gap in God’s hedge around Job, and exploited it much earlier!
3 See: Job 1:4-5 and Jeremiah 17:10
4 My son, keep/guard your heart/spirit with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life. (Proverbs 4:23)
5 For who has known the Mind of The Lord that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:16) The Mind of God and Jesus Christ is spiritually revealed in The Bible by The Holy Spirit.
