God's Truth: the few within ...within wicked labor...

Dearly beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, how that one day is with the Lord, as a thousand year, and a thousand year as one day. The Lord is not slack to fulfil his promise, as some men count slackness: but is patient to us ward, and would have no man lost, but would receive all men to repentance.

Behold in a dream during the nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...

and again i was taken and shown within ...within the wicked factory ...of wicked labor ...

and the place was full of darkness ...though well lit ...

and the place was full of noisesome pestilence ...though you were not supposed to talk ...

and the pounding and grinding and rude raging all the same ...

and people scurrying running raging all roundabout ...though blind ...

and a cranking out ...pounding out ...grinding out of more and more ...profit for the merchants full pockets ...

Nevertheless within the wicked factory ...of wicked labor ...there were a few ...

and the few worked and labored in the same wretched wickedness ...

and the few loved God and Christ in spirit and truth ...

and the few were quiet mostly ...

and the few were full of equity and fairness ...though the place was full of grovelers ...and those that loved to have their posteriors embraced ...

and the few spoke kindly ...when speaking ...

and the few helped each other out exceedingly ...

even to take up labor for to helps each other ...

and to watch out for each other ...

and even to keep each others garments clean ...

even a clean garment ...as soon as one might get soiled ...in such a dirty wicked place ...

and these few were even kind to the unkind and to the evil ...

even as God their father and Jesus their Lord and saver ...IS ...

and scripture came back to remembrance ...

THE GOSPELL OF ST. LUKE Chpt 6

If ye love them which love you: what thank are ye worthy of? For the very sinners love their lovers. And if ye do for them which do for you: what thank are ye worthy of? For the very sinners do even the same. If ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive: what thank shall ye have: For the very sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again. Wherefore, love ye your enemies, do good and lend, looking for nothing again: and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the highest: for he is kind unto the unkind and to the evil.
Be ye therefore merciful, as your father is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged. Condemn not: and ye shall not be condemned. Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, shall men give into your bosoms. For with what measure ye mete, with the same shall men mete to you again.

THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 16

These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs. The time will come when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs: but I shall show you plainly from my father. At that day shall ye ask in mine name. And I say not unto you that I will speak unto my father for you. For the father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. I went out from the father, and came into the world: and I leave the world again, and go to the father.
His disciples said unto him: lo now speakest thou plainly, and thou usest no proverb. Now know we that thou understandest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee any question. Therefore believe we that thou camest from God. Jesus answered them: Now ye do believe. Behold the hour draweth nigh, and is already come that ye shall be scattered every man his ways, and shall leave me alone. And yet am I not alone. For the father is with me.
These words have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. For in the world shall ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 17

  I pray for them, and pray not for the world: but for them which thou hast given me, for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them. And now am I no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy father keep in thine own name, them which thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name. Those that thou gavest me, have I kept, and none of them is lost, but that lost child, that the scripture might be fulfilled.
      Now come I to thee, and these words speak I in the world, that they might have my joy full in them. I have given them thy words, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I desire not that thou shouldest take them out of the world: but that thou keep them from evil. They are not of the world, as I am not of the world. Sanctify them with thy truth. Thy saying is truth. As thou didst sent me in to the world, even so have I sent them into the world, and for their sakes sanctify I myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
      I pray not for them alone: but for them also which shall believe on me through their preaching, that they all may be one, as thou father art in me, and I in thee, that they may be also one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And that glory that thou gavest me, I have given them, that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
      Father, I will that they which thou hast given me, be with me where I am, that they may see my glory which thou hast given me. For thou lovedest me before the making of the world. O' righteous father, the very world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it, that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, be in them, and that I be in them

THE GOSPELL OF ST. MATTHEW Chpt 4

The devil took him up again and led him in to an exceeding high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and all the glory of them, and said to him: all these will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then said Jesus unto him. Avoid, Satan. For it is written, thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
Then the devil left him, and behold, the angels came and ministered unto him.

THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 15

This command I you, that ye love together. If the world hate you, ye know that he hated me before he hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own. How be it because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore hateth you the world. Remember the saying that I said unto you: the servant is not greater than the Lord.

THE PSALMS Chpt 17

Hear the right ( O' Lord ) consider my complaint: harken to my prayer, that goeth not out of a *feigned mouth. Let my sentence come forth from thy presence: and look upon the thing that is equal.
      Thou hast proved and visited mine heart in the night season: thou has tried me in the fire: and hast found no wickedness in me: for I utterly purposed that my mouth should not offend. Because the words of thy lips, I have kept me from the works of men: in the way of the murderer.
      Oh order thou my goings in thy paths: that my footsteps slip not. For unto thee I cry: hear me O' God: incline thine ears unto me: and harken unto my words.      Show thy marvelous lovingkindness, thou that savest them that put their trust in thee, from such as resist thy right hand.      Keep me as the apple of an eye, defend me under the shadow of thy wings. From the ungodly that trouble me, from my enemies which compass my soul round about. Which maintain their own wealthiness with oppression, and their mouth they speaketh proud things. They lay waiting in our way on every side, turning their eyes down to the ground. Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a lions whelp lurking in his den.
      Up Lord, disappoint him and cast him down: deliver my soul with thy sword from the ungodly. From the men of thy hand ( O' Lord ) from the men of the world, which have their portion in this life: whose bellies thou fillest with thy treasure. They have children at their desire, and leave the rest of their substance for their babes.
      But as for me, I will behold thy presence in righteousness: and when thy glory appeareth, I shall be satisfied
