“Different Sounds”



“Different Sounds”

 

cji

6/18/15

 

When there should only be one

voices coming from all directions

different sounds discordantly

now and then mingled truth

mostly just nonsensical guile

enough to please the hearers

caring not making no sense

pleasant to the tone deaf

appealing to the blinded

without feelings of value

voices coming from the winds

when there should only be one

the still small voice of Father!

“Blessing’s Abundantly”



“Blessing’s Abundantly”

 

cji

6/17/15

 

Delving into the profusions

blessing’s abundantly

little kindness’s given

doing Father’s will

being fully obedient

within the gardens

working the vineyards

giving one’s all and all

understanding the needs

found in the profusions

of eternal endeavors!

“A Bad Thing”



“A Bad Thing”

 

cji

6/16/15

 

Choices made in emotions

conflicting ideas rushed

mob violence/peer pressure

going with the crowded room

chaotic directions delivered

meant to confuse innocent

even those called elect

a bad thing to decide

based on rhetorical guile

worldly wisdom’s voice

a bad thing made by many

choices without reason!

"Honor, Duty, Loyalty" (Flag Day 2015)




 

“Honor, Duty, Loyalty”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

(Prelude:

 

What is it to honor

(especially a flag)

many feel unimportant

(all this for a damn flag)

while our nation strains

with many wavering

conflicts over one’s duty

too many without loyalty

forgetting what’s there

re-inventing their world

ignoring the enslaved

a nation fraught within

pulls together today

to honor its flag

all that’s left today

betwixt them (us)

freedom or bondage!)

 

 

(1)

 

“June 14, 1777”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

A flag for our nation

fledging colonies at war

fighting the powerful

seeking self-rule

called a bunch of rabble

yet now with a flag

calling of all to arms

giving meaning

‘honor, duty, loyalty’

this flag of our nation!

 

(2)

 

“Our Army”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

In 1775 on this day

under an act of law

an army enjoined

to engage the enemy

rag-tags of the few

(not all in support)

small militias massed

now to be united

common cause

for self-rule fought

some as colonies

others in the new army!

 

 

(3)

 

“To Some a Parade”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

Gathering in villages

towns, cities, states

early as 1860’s

continued now today

some trying to outdo

others simply to honor

biggest, largest, oldest

forgetting the reasons

forgetting the sacrifices

forever remembered

in the graveyards

within our nation

and those without

to some a parade

to the few sadness!

 

(4)

 

“Honor”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

Unlike those who bemoan

this is a day to give honor

(as everyday should be)

for as no other nation today

we’ve freedoms earned

(which some trying to take)

allowed to worship by choice

to walk, talk, gather in groups

to write, to express, to honor

which can never be taken away

too many trying to give away

forgetting honor is within

or it is not to be found at all!

 

(5)

 

“Duty”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

Called to bear arms as one

united in defending freedoms

this duty in payment to all

those who’ve gone before

to our Savior for his love

providing a sacred land

where men/women choose

some to meet their duty

others to foolishly deny

‘some giving their all,

but all giving some’

and yet still more today

taking without giving

their duty in selfishness!

 

 

(6)

 

“Loyalty”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

Today a matter of loyalty

who choosing to serve

for one can only serve one

either Heavenly Father

and his only begotten

or to serve Satan alone;

 

Loyalty to one’s home

without memory forgotten

knowing their eternal Father

in this war which is never done

freedoms, tribulations in verve

fighting our nations royalty;

 

Or loyalty to the worldly

engaging in selfishness

putting themselves above

entitled to others shove

acting in worthlessness

fully thus otherworldly;

 

Each must choose today

(and in reality everyday)

always who they’ll serve

either God or Satan deserve

their course chosen to stay

loyalty to truth or lie in decay!

 

“Honor, Duty, Loyalty”

 

cji

6/14/15

 

(Epilogue:

 

Honor, duty, loyalty are choices

amid the chaotic manmade noises;

 

Flag day is but one day a year

where America sheds their tear;

 

Now betrayed by those who lead

emptiness the words which plead;

 

‘all this for a damn flag’ echoing

‘all this for a damn flag’ echoing;

 

Or better all this for a nation free

allowing hope a chance to be!)

“To Not Exist”



“To Not Exist”

 

cji

6/15/15

 

Ignoring all vital signs

indifferent to nature

denying the Scriptures

suspect of ex niliho

for nothing comes

when there’s nothing

to not exist a belief

held by most the world

putting aside the truth

accepting worldly guile

ignoring the vital signs!

“Allon-Bachuth”



“… Why Christians are so silent I cannot explain . Why the threats and death are not confronted I cannot explain. Why all that appears evil gets a free pass I cannot explain. Why drugs. Why riots. I cannot explain. Why ? My brain hurts from the pressure of it all. We require a spiritual miracle do we not? …” thought from my friend WH.

 

Reply:

Paul clearly defined the problem – and what was going to happen! There would be an falling away – this had to come from within the established Church by the Savior – therefore there would be no more Church of the Savior on the earth. We know that this happened and the ‘’ church would be one of men/women. Thus one of confusion – conflicting doctrines and rituals! Much influence came from Augustine and Origen – both who were products of Greek Rhetoric (well over 25 years). If the Christian church of today was fathered by these two and others like them then there is very little of common sense – yet much of the world -  power – politics – lusts – wealth – lies – deception – guile – or a world without feelings! Paul called all of this!

 

There had to be a Restoration – as no living thing can be taken from something dead! The world has been taught there was no more revelations – no more answers to prayers – no more Prophets or Apostles – that the heavens were closed! Currently we’ve some 50,000 various editions of Scriptures – multiple creeds of men/women (most making no sense). i.e. logismoi and nothing to do with gnosis (truth). Each Sabbath Day (regardless of which day of the week they use) preachers, rabbis, ministers, priests, clergy and others of their sort – preach the politically correct doctrines of the creeds of men. Some rant and rave – others soft voices – hell and damnation – peace and submission. However, very few teach the Bible cover to cover – without adding or deleting from the literal doctrines. We’ve a world which preaches the religion of hate, distrust, argument, contention – this church or that – but stay away from that one.

 

If there had to be a Restoration – when, where, how? Every church in the world claims none needed – yet any church which uses the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ pleads for the same. Only one Church claims this Restoration – it is led by Prophets and Apostles – was organized by the Savior (introduced by the Father) – Peter, James and John – and John the Baptist. Elijah has also come restoring the keys of Eternal Marriage.

 

Guess what very few believe this – thus the majority deny it – but it has happened – nothing can change this – even the denial of almost everyone!

 

You ask why – we’ve the world we have? Because it is what the adversary wants – compliancy, apathy, convenience, justification, lack of responsibility, lack of accountability, lack of freedom, lack of values, lack of morals, lack of virtue – interestingly all of the principles of the worlds are the opposite of what is taught in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!

Mighty the oak trees found

some hundreds of years old

still producing their fruit yearly

giving shade and protection

yet they weep each Sabbath

seeing the world’s corruption

denial of the God of Heaven

refusing to do what is right

so few seek the truth to know

allon-bachuth sadly to see

where so few believe/obey!
