9-28-21 The Constant Tramp of Feet Is Reality

The Constant Tramp of Feet Is Reality :: By Ron Ferguson Published on: September 21, 2021 by RRadmin7 Category:General Articles This is my latest poem and written with an urgency quite quickly; it connects right now with society. Note the quotation marks because it helps with speakers. I hope you can work it out; it applies to us and also to Christians in other more restricted places. THE CONSTANT TRAMP OF FEET IS IN MY EARS. It’s growing louder now. I hear disquiet and people forced to bow. People must pay homage to climate change; Must worship more conjectures strange. “Do not question; just obey. Careful now with what you say. Big Brother watches night and day. At socialism’s feet, your tribute pay.” “You must not destroy the earth; Our Mother earth who gave us birth. Break out in Cybele’s praise; To Mother earth, your voices raise; Drink to Bacchus; feast to Diana; Celebrate Pan; raise his banner.” THE CONSTANT TRAMP OF FEET IS IN MY EARS. It’s growing louder even more. “What more is contained in its store? We don’t want heartache, we implore. We just want goodness we can adore. You’ve constrained us according to law.” The tramp of feet keeps up its beat. Along the street, hear the repeat. We’re being gathered in, with no retreat. It comes for us along the street. We’ve disobeyed; our homage paid – At Another’s feet, our lives we laid; To God, our allegiances made. “But that’s illegal,” the State decreed! It outlawed religion in thought or deed. “There are consequences, if that life you lead; If you persist, then punishments indeed.” “The opiate of the people,” according to Marx, To whom the socialist movement harks. “Blind religion we must exterminate! Marx, Mao Zedong, Xi – these we imitate.” To Caesar, or to God. Choose one Master. “Choose correctly, or there’ll be disaster. Choose not Christ – the State is your pastor.” Darkness descends and blackness increases. Abort the child so that its life ceases. Terminate the elderly and infirm. Their lives are unproductive; now let them squirm. “You must conform to the socialist order. Your lives are programmed; don’t cross that border. Don’t touch God things to bring disorder.” THE CONSTANT TRAMP OF FEET IS IN MY EARS. It’s growing ever stronger and now outside! There’s no place for concealment; no place to hide. The finale has been reached; Pagan man’s stronghold has been breached! The last tramp of feet belongs to God. With a summons sure, those feet are shod. He comes to gather His own, Soon to be around His throne. Christians have been hated by the world, Rejected, disowned, with abuse at them hurled; Legislated against; persecuted, vilified, But now the Lord comes and they’re glorified. THE CONSTANT TRAMP OF FEET IS IN MY EARS. It’s growing louder now. This world is not our home. Only through it do we roam. We are seeing things most vile, Which is heathenism’s bile. Demonic laws are being passed; The roundup net is being cast. The world is preparing, but knows not why. It follows Satan and believes his lie. Chaos on the world is drawing nigh. As much as you try, it won’t pass you by. Soon comes real disaster, but the Christians won’t be here, Because they’ve been raptured by Jesus; it’s now so near. 12 September 2021 R Ferguson Metre – Irregular ronaldf@aapt.net.au

Not In A Million Billion Years :: By Dave Hubley Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles (There is a special message at the end of this article for those who might happen to read this and do not have Jesus in their life and are looking for peace and a way to better understand the present-day insanity and confusion.) Several years ago, I had a conversation with a guy in a waiting room while getting an oil change (in the car, not me). I don’t recall exactly how the conversation originated or how it progressed, but I have never forgotten it. As I recall, it had something to do with evolution and an article that was contained in a “waiting room magazine” that was available there. He made the observation that God was “something that man had made up.” I can’t recall the exact reason he used to justify his opinion, but it had something to do with the usual reasons people give: Weak-willed people needing a crutch, and blah, blah, blah. I engaged him in a “witness,

9-16-23 Santa Staleness

Santa Staleness :: By Edwin Tan Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles My one and only trip to Israel had more than a profound effect on my present-day psyche. It might have been three decades ago, but there is more than a lingering aftertaste. It happened smack in the last fortnight of the year. Surprisingly absent were the familiar sights and sounds of the Christmas most people are accustomed to. Hardly any Christmas decorations in downtown Tel Aviv, if not any of the shopping thoroughfares across the Holy Land. Hanukah was a breath of fresh air – not anything resembling a Christmas carol most people grew up with did surface. The Christmas Eve service in a small Protestant church not far away from Jerusalem’s Old City was awesome; songs that truly celebrated the virgin birth of our Lord, which though seemingly unheard of, were a welcome inspiration to many a soul. There was even one sung in Arabic! So it began, my overt disdain for the secular Christmas t

9-15-23 Miracles 2

Miracles 2 :: By Jim Towers Published on: December 21, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles This story is a continuation of the exciting things God continues doing in my life. I was supposed to have died a while back, and sometimes I feel as though I may do so soon. But since I’m ready to meet my maker, I have no fear of death. In fact, my evangelistic zeal has only increased, especially as I see the fast approaching of the “Tribulation period” mentioned in the book of Revelation. Insofar as my acting career is concerned, I just finished filming a soliloquy featuring Melchior, one of the three Magi who followed the star to Christ lying in the manger, and am preparing to portray a Jewish Priest on stage. Like I said, God is working overtime in my life, and I will be appearing on stage singing Broadway show tunes sometime in March, so I have a lot of rehearsing to do. In the meantime, I will be signing Christmas carols acapella at a park here in Naples. Since it is a spontaneous th
