The writings are wonderfull in the lil vignettes of youth and wrong turns until he got on the right road, you know the ol girlfreind he runs from in the market, the lady he was helping to understand sins sees a casual lover of hers stabbed to death on a pathway,and converts , forever,The dudes who steal the lead from idols and are caught,His dads insane superstitiousness that was decidedly stupid spirtually,These are the only things i remember,The theology was like a 301 philosophy course and his writings may have made the catholic church a great deal more academic and long winded,They rather foolishly think that apologetics and treatises will make a differnce and to a certin wrong extent they justify blatantly simple errors of spiritual judgement.They unfortuantely are many times unwitting victims of fascination that are subtle wrong turns,The pope is on a rollercoster high one day and the next jumped in the cloak room by other clerics and emerges confused and no longer shiny. whoops shared too much gotta skeedaddle, Pax in Christ....

quite well rounded and sound, I work in a small city in Maryland, since im not the mayor,uh its Green Belt.,.,Im sure you agree these little towns are like the movie ground hog day, stil being human the little human psycho dramas are hard to resist, People know iam a christian and im sure they know you are too, I was impressed with how intersting just beng honest was, Its almost thrty years that ive cut lawms in the town and im constantly not witnessing, im going to be gone one day adn im sure ill hear about my lack of witnessing in heaven,Thebest thing to do is what you just did, speak the truth and nothing but the truth about your walk adn tell them he is real ansd not a myth, we have learned to discern this, they have not, im going to tke a little of yer realness and use it in the town,in the community, I dont want to shrink, back , he is not pleased with us when we do...Good job O servant of Jesus, Good real testimony too, you are going to heaven tell all the peope that you see how to get there..blessings , realness, untiy between all peoples in Jesus holy name. patrick Pax in Christos

I feel the liberation
Jesus brings to you in the poem,I do not see his name in the poem, and it is a mystery to me,I did see a reference to a "knight",but even the feudal use of the "king assimilitude" used in the bible is a symbol for our earth bound and historicalmly encased minds,Lose style, it is best to evngelize in rags and a hoarse voice from screaming truth. do it your whole life then hear him, "well done well done faithfull servant."
He is my God, he is my everything, So many are in bondage to so many phantoms that steal the things that he has shown you,Its a nice poem, its a carefully done and pleasing poem, Make it a clear and decided call to to others in the name of our Reason for living so that we can lead them to a wide and never ending field of dreams of freedom that he will actualize for his servants.It is not a dream it is real,somehow make the rubber hit the road,, still,pretty good rendering of what he can do inside a person if u let him.
Im going through a little time of humbling wherein Jesus has shown me how paltry and meningless will a my little talents appear if I dont point the way forcefully and effectivley.Yeah I figured it out that it was jesus, but will the others in bondage to fears and others chains.

Hmm..There will and must be disdain in the world for Christians,thats how you know your on the right track, but Remember the incident with The apostle Paul When he was arrested and about to be flogged, as a high ranking roman officer commanded, he averted the beating, he told the officer" i must warn you sir, and you should have a care, Iam a Roman citizen" This scared the guy and permitted Paul to go Without his beating, so he could do Gods work of spreading the Gospel. But in regards To the economoc health wealth and enrichment of Christians many who use this or have used this or are sorta thinkin about it, must not only have a care, but realize something about this desire, listen,When the spirit of truth came upon judas, did the sum he recieved seem like anythtig that could cheer him up, no he went to death, and even then its truth its horrible reality followed, and that is all we need to say about that.
However, I beleieve many of the things that you said are in keeping with the way that Pauls reacted to the need for health and less trauma,"Whoever does not work nor shall he eat" so as to do Gods work, Also anyone who recieves worldly accalaim in the world is not of much interst to the advesary of mankind, but Realized servants who can see what others cant, men or weoman Who are equal in Gods sight must have a care if they, in speaking, in writing, in influencing the lost to have a " change of Heart" to the seemingly jaded trappings of this Long ago man named Jesus,If they hold him up to the light and people see him in his new and glorius light and call on him in faith,Heed o speaker! let him wear rags, let him live in a cave, let him Have nothing to do with the siren song of wealth and not look to the left or to the right.
There is a relatively small and under financed runner who was trained by a woman in South Africa,Id attempt to say his name, but well, its not really important,For some reason he didnt get a very good lane for the event for the Rios Olympics, it may have been due to slow times in the semi finals, however, it seemd to be an advantage,noone in the olympics ahd ever tsken gold from that lane. He didnt see anyone else, and just ran the fastesr time in the world and won Olympic Gold.
This doesnt mean dont listen to anyone or be in church or follow anyone but the small still voice inside, we are human, but we are also in tune with the holy spirit and he must supereseed what what other humans are saying. You see many spirtul leaders in the Christin faith Who didnt realize this and had a great and ironic fall. Its usaully due to acclaim...vanity,

oJust as God created everything with a purpose in Genesis and saw it was Good adn gave it order and symetry, so too with you and all the people in this sight,you are at the top of the page perhaps a thousand people read what you expressed.Good bad not important rght wrong just glad to see you welcome, What am i what do i do,I wake up read my bible read my devotinals using little tricks of memory by assoxciation to remember what I read and drink coffee and the see what is cooking in the big beach of driftwood on the beach of writing . com, at first when I saw the lil contests with three word phrases to express a pic I thought, " childish " but then "fun" so jump in not out,its lonelu n boring to be out, and keep writing,maybe press enter for indenting but im really not the one to criticize,welcome to you, I believe it was my destiny as well as yours to land in this place, really I do, it would be a little deceptive to not reveal my Back ground as a Christian man, who writes messages, oh darn he was doing so well, still is i hope, in the end there is only one big differnce between me now and brfore i acceptd jesus and that is where I will be going after I fall asleep forever,Its not clear what we will become, but when it is we will be happy, Oh dear that was a lot anyway welcome welcome welcome jump in

People who makeup these curious engineering phantasies must be carefull not to try any of , them in the three dimensional world.these are not toys that can not be made by fools.the girl with the blazer blew her dumb ass up, my conclusion only,pardon my french uh sorry, ahem forward, Engineering for the hubble telescope was involeved and intense and then when they sent it out and got back soggy pictures,there was a huge dent in there happiness untill they repaired it and thn they all had a joint epiphonal sigh of relief.but soon the little tin soldier or woody the cowboy was left behind ad a new love interest was found, we really cant get these sort o toys out of our system, we rescued warner von braam and said "he aint no Nazi", and he really wasnt, but was dirty with many things for his work as a bad toymaker,and slave labor user, even if his empirac secret desire was no.t world domination but to go to the moon,several tons of scintific tests and results of thousnds of test and three dimesional facts tth Thetook a batrery of tests went with the deal to take hi adn his moon obcession into the land that gave birth to edison. Im not sure what to write to you, Iam a personalist christian, meaning no denomination and constant yelling up to heaven for help and recieving it.I liked the way you put your crap together, not wearying but not gonna work either, surprisingly high interest and some true teenage pathos and good values,In the end the big adventure must be our need to be realized in our being by knowing our creator,only the individua lead by the spirit of Jesus can find this. I invite you to callout and to yell to him and heaven and see what happens.many have given up in reviews and also evangelizing,Im convinces something is better than nothing, but dont be over bearing or mentoring,Its opressive, God and Jesus you patrick

What many christians fail to recognize is the delights of the struggle, but like a good soldier when we have done so we shouldnt act as we have done an extraordinanry thing,They want corn but they will not pull it down then shuck and then cut off the kernals,of course we beleive that faith conquers everything and it is so, but the unseen hand of God seems to make incongruois tests appear and christians grumble, Christ had many unusual and incongruous strugglled that he conquered without sinning by grumbling,We follow his example Yes, truly you have done well to write what you did to remind us of the need for obedience and faith to overcome, but we must thank God that even when we fail we take solace in him who never failed and rest in the victory and peace of the salvation he won us, please continue these things in the sight, it is in need of these things to be remembered. a gratefull grumbler.

hmm.. initailly alarmed at pansy's turn around after Mothers death, then realized Its an excerpt from a novel,The dialogue is Good, bordering on cutesy, but doesnt turn into sacharine or smaltz.Im not real sure, but, I kinda tried to steer somebody to my portfolio
and may have recieved a slight warning fro, Writing . com, might, just be paranoid,

I was planning a sort of whimsical feature for the religous Genre in a C S lewis style with a lot of creative liberties, but consiering the times and the preeminent forboding of Christs coming im only doing holy things tht follow scripture carefully, Words are important, whether written or spoken they will save or condemn us,Im holding fast to all the holiness inside of me and trying to get as manyfolks wtiten in the book of life as possible, Thank you for the vignette with the two Girls God be with your novel,Maranatha

The image of a prison is often used in the christian walk. symbolically or actualized by the purveyers of our faith being put in them.These awfull places make one and only one clairion thought rise. How can I get out of here. We are all in there, if not physically pychologically or psychicly from time to time,The other thing that happens in prisons is that fellow human either become objects of deep hatred or desperate and though all human realtions fade,very real attatchment and fotrtunate or many times unfortuante bonding. Imagine two beings in a court yard of one of these hellish houses,"What up?" "hey, I met this guy in here..uh... hes new" "Whats he in for?" "If I told you yu wouldnt believe me" "try me...I got time" " telling the truth" "Hed better learn not to do that in here"..."uh yeah um."he thinks he can get us outta here"..."Were both in here for a while,does he have some advocates outside or somethin, they generally get tired and go back to dreamin of doin easier good stuff, were both in here deep" "nah, uh hes got a plan to break out" "Your dreamin" ", "ill just keep it to myself"............" I got time, but not for nonsense... so i gonna ask you one time again... does he have a real plan" All the money and security in the world couldnt hold Matthew tohis tax collectors chair, whenJeus called him he knew his prayers had been answered, like the character Nicodemus forgive my vanity and self promotion, in My portfolio.....He was "breakin out" your poem is great, I forgot but matthew until yu wrote it Im glad your holy n not a chatterbox like me, anyway thank yu it helped me to gt back on track, the world and its geegaw was luring me away from Jesus plan of breaking out of thie fallen adn terrible thorny worl

I would have preferred you use your story telling gifts in a tale not bible related,But the desire to create is just below that to worship God. the triuned God of the Jews,for the record heres some interesting Facts about the tower Of Babel, and for either Good or my bad I read the whole thing u wrote, you sort of did the story tellers thing, not saying this is what happened so I wasnt terribly alarmed, you have a noble human spirit but jesus wants more for you, It was brocaded and a lot of description work went into it that literarily succeeded,Im not just saying this to evangelize but maybe iam, im pretty narcicistic adn I read the whole thing, a lil rare for me, there much better,,. also and forgive me if u can find it in your heart to do so but I just want to give a little biblical parable about that works progect for my masters sake and maybe yours, dont be offeneded, Cain was cast out into the land of nod,"James Dean" in "East of Eden" after telling burl Ives his deep secret of mistkenly but maybe intentively from jealousy killed his brother, burl thought a bit and then told Dean in that high wheezy fasaetto " well now it might be good for yu to Go east of eden to nod or wherever your supposed to Go"
The music hits an augmented minor crescendo and james dean screams as the face of the idol turns into a gargoyle.talk about creativity See? Im human too, but heres the facts,its the skinny, they were a scattered and Godless bunch of people in the middle of nowhere was the it thing to do,looks like not much has changed huh? acclaim security and attention from the superego of what all the other lost souls thought of you was at least something, they decided to build it for accalim and to be one people. God hearing a sound below in his foot stool looked down and saw the thing rising, its somewhat curious that he realized at least in what is written that if they succeed nothing will be im possible for them, to me at first this seems Good, but in truth it would lead to pride, domination of other wanderers, and people in charge whos only desire is pride. Sooo. he confused their langauages and again they scattered with factions leaving with peoples that they could talk to. in my Port folio there are four sermons please forgive my scant and bad punctuation here, some there too but less. they are part of a series called,"Walking with Jesus", or "On The Road with Jesus Christ" Im writing fast because im conflicted about writing anything to anybody because it causes a fight or a contest of will and ideas,This happened recently and I had to turn the other cheek, in the end the greatest power of a Christian to turn souls to his God is his honesty meekness humanity and understanding of scripture, Please have a look if y have time, Iwant to evangelize in reality not in my imagination, God of my faith Jesus Christ, bless you, patrick

I heard in my mind from My master Jesus, The psalm of David Im Paraphrasing (Yes..AAAAgain)
"Lord make me not a mule" Youll see this reference in my protfolio in the Nicodemus sermon,just before I took the listeners to my museum of spiritual heroes..Oh, forgive me welcome to our site. There is rudeness in passivity, though so hard to explain, why.

First refresh yourself with my verse for the year: Ephesians6:10 Finally, build up your strength and by means of his mighty power. put on all the armor that God gives you, so tht you will be able to stand up against the devils Evil tricks.For we are not fighting against human beings, but against the wicked spiritual forces in the heavenly world, the rulers, authorities, and cosmic powers of this dark age, so,Put on God, armor now! then when the comes,you will be able to resist the enemies attacks;and after fighting to the end, you will still hold your ground,..." finally, not paraphrased, hurray, but now probably puctuated wrong.... The english sailor,"John Newton" a one time slaver,Who penned "Amazing grace",mopped his church out every morn in a monks smock with no shoes on,He was depicted in a movie as counseling Wilberforce, Im sure youve seen it...He took great rest in Jesus after his sinfull life as a greedy and selfish man. Yes, sin and it reprocussions is deepley troubling.....It is written "Man is destined to live once and then to be judged for the sins commited in the body, the righteous, to a life of everlasting Glory and the sinful and selfish, the self seeking to eternal shame". I personally have no reproval, for you or any, "well... I think this,or that, and yknow, David before he died, did say that no man can live outside his generation" no. none of that..only this, I have taken a Master who came as man, though God,I trust what he said in this fallen world to be true and do what he tells me to do,He says,"Welcome Christopher," tell him of my rest. thank you come back again, Patrick

When i was a boy and a girl needed to be cheered up, i would reach into my bqg of circus boy tricks and say or do something until they laughed, but when i was a child i behaved like one but now that iam a man i have given up my foolish ways, none the less you stil need to be cheered up in some way,Your automatic writing is surprisingly holy and interesting,You seem to be a rare combination of a free spirit and accurate theological understanding. You may want more children and thats fine, but heres an avenue that may give you direction work and many jewels on your great and mighty mothers crown when you roll into heaven. Your writing isnt like flat stuff on paper, it has a kind of other dimension, you can follow scripture and keep it kind of lively kids in the world will sense realness and follow along.I was reading folks portfolios and a seventeen year old scottish guy had about eight short short stories about pixiie girls getting stuck in bottles barell holes, until another kind pixie girl rescued them,I scroled down and ther seemed to be hundreds of them, I thought "Oh my.. this is tooo many pixies," and then I thought ill write him something about my master adn make it so true and real with my automatic writing I will help him from this obcession, the first two or three intersting then,,,hey wait a minute,... I live to be concerned about others, its a miracale to me that a sinner like myself is concerned for anyone, Pax in christos wish u well,

Very well written and researched,however;
the church in revealation referred to as, "the Bride of christ" we are all created beings, men and weoman, so it is somewhat childish to raise one above the other with accolades making one seem shinier by the others failings.Failings which indubitably will come to us all.I certainly dont want you to misunderstand the intent of this message,hear my words and a short narrative,
I was once on a work crew for consturction, a welder took apart a huge water silo our comapany purchased, then we put it back together with welding,I was not a welder, more of a lil helper to facilitate the process I adhered to the servant of all will be the greatest, however, when it was completed, and note what happened,when it was completed, i said " we did it" but the welder said " "you didnt do it I did it all" there was a gaggle of guys staring at me to see what I would say, at that time I like you, was somewaht amazed at "Man's" selfishness, but later he was humbled and in some way, I was lifted up. Please be patient, and wait and see the equality of all servants whether male or female, to give in to one side as it is your side as superior is not biblical or true. Iam at this time involved in various domestic puzzles that i cant go into, there is no need to send a reply even if you believe you must. i look forward to your next scholarly offering and if I have time will read it carefully , thank you for your service to the religous section and May Jesus richly bless you..Patrick

I would often think why must poems rhyme,for some happy symetry truth is lost; the angel who says "Church" does work. Church is always the first fort the darkeness wants to destroy, it isnt brick and mortar or presbyterrians livin accordieng to apicket fence scripural rules, its a slow walk with Jesus as we try our best to be a Good bride and holy,
that terrible fight with the goat and stuff quite real um.. stay in church stay ready to be his, its for all of us to do men weoman children, bery enouraging and real thanks

Hi, theres a narrative of David Dancing in "Man Born Blind" It all depends on how people see.The adversary blinds folks to whats happening, thank you for sharing, Id feel a little sneaky if I didnt tellyou I wrote it, I assure you that passage is my favorite, cause its romance without one man one woman, It a man and God and a whole bunch of wise and enlightened weoman diggin what that Guys doing and not caring if his clothes happen to fall off cause his not paying attention to anything but praising God. I find that very wonderfull and moving, No body made up or ginned up the drama it just happend

The powerfull created being of which you speak was allowed to assert his freewill against Gods created being, in Hebrews it may have been his mistake of refusing to worship the son of God in consort with the other angels,noone knows really but one thing is certain in time his head would be crushed and his rebellion and the pain , eternal pain would come back again again,His power is seemingly great but one little word will fell him. many however are overcome by the magnaitude of his charade and illusion, they are because they have no other forcre to compare it to or to call upon, even Angels of great power when caught in battles with this being, call on God most high to rebuke him, When we tell or suggest anything to do its generally pride on the part of the person adn a desire to have things end his way so I wont say anything,so I will only say it was a well done adn accurate poem and I read it, the happy ending is with me and i believe with you as well,have a triumpahant day
