And measures and matters of The Truth of the "time" we are in ...how "man" ..."thought to change time and times ... 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.
creteis@yahoo.com Behold in a nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...
and i was taken and shown within a city ...
and the city was full of darkness ...
and rain slicked the blacktop of the parking lot near a cheap store with bars like a prison ...
and the only light was the glaring of head lights of cars reflecting off of the dirty glass and trash fill rain soaked streets ...
and a flickering over hanging light ...shining down above smudged and worn and filthy gas pumps ...
and a man pulled his car into the parking lot ...looking all around as he came off the street ...
and brought his car to a sudden stop ...against the dirty concrete barrier that struck his tires ...
and again he looked around for any indication of eminent violence or robbery or insanity ...
and he turned around and looked into the eyes of his family ...
and he said ...stay in the car ...keep the doors locked ...and i will be right back ...
and his children looked back at him ...like we know its not safe ...
and his wife just smiled warmly and raised her eyebrows as if to say ...maybe he was a little too dramatic ...
Nevertheless the man quickly scanned the car locks ...shifted his weight ...
and quickly exited the car locking the door behind him ...
Now just as he heard the click of the lock ...two dark draped figures appeared behind him from behind the wall of the cheap store ...
and he in an instant ...measured their size and movement ...
and without emotion (like seeing a neighbor who lived ten houses away in his subdivision ) ...he looked to them...in the face ...
and one of the dark draped figures stayed where he was ...near the corner of the wall ...
Nevertheless the other dark draped figure continued as though he was going past the mans car ...into the wretched store ...
Now as the dark cloaked figure approached the man standing by his family and car ...he looked at the man ...with a ghoulish look on his face ...
and the dark cloaked figure had made himself a look like a zombie or devil or some other demon he had seen on television or the movies ...
and the dark cloaked ghoulish figure thought to get a trembling fear out of the man that stood by his family and car ...
Nevertheless the man trembled not ...and looked on the ghoulish man ...as though he was one of his kids dressed for halloween ...
Or maybe he thought like an actor ...and the stage was this filthy parking lot ...
Now to this ...(not getting any rise out of the man )...the ghoulish man ...side stepped nearer to the mans car ...
and fiendishly put his face to the window of the car ...
Now the man who stood by his family and the car ...moved ...
and he said smiling ...to the ghoulish man ...don't do that ...you might frighten the children...
and he moved so close to the ghoulish man ...that if ...if he would have to ...he could lay hands on the actor ...
Yet he touched him not ...
evenso with this the ghoulish man ...was shocked and feared himself ...and moved away from the man and the car ...
and the man followed close behind the ghoulish man ...with a quick glance upon the other ghoulish man waiting at the corner ...
even following upon the first ghoulish man into the wretched store ...
Nevertheless he only kept the ghoulish man in sight ...without looking at him ...
and bought the things he needed ...and began to leave the filthy place ...
Now as he was leaving ...he looked out the oily smudged windows and the ghoulish man and his companion ...were after another person ...
and they had purposely picked out a man who would fight with them ...
and other ghoulish peoples came to watch ...feeding on fear ...
and as they they hoped to intimidating and terrify their victim ...just to the edge of being ...illegal ...
and if the victim fought ...he would be libel ...for arrest ...for the ghoulish only ...appeared to be ...pretended ...acted out ...their fantasies ...
and the ghoulish and delighted in the wretched wickedness of frightening people ...without repercussions ...
and being allowed to do so by the law ...
even like it might be a violation of their civil rights ...to stop them ...
THE FIRST EPISTLE OF ST. PETER Chpt 3
In conclusion, be ye all of one mind, one suffer with another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous, not rendering evil for evil, neither rebuke for rebuke: but contrariwise, bless, remembering that ye are thereunto called, even that ye should be heirs of blessing. If any man long after life, and loveth to see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak not guile. Let him *eschew evil and do good: let him seek peace, and ensue it. For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers. But the face of the Lord beholdeth them that do evil.
Moreover who is it that will harm you, if ye follow that which is good? Notwithstanding happy are ye if ye suffer for righteousness sake. Ye and fear not though they seem terrible to you, neither be troubled: but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, and that with meekness and fear: having a good conscience, that when they backbite you as evildoers, they may be ashamed, for as much as they have falsely accused your good conversation in Christ.
It is better (if the will of God be so) that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing. For as much as Christ hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, for to bring us to God, and was killed, as pertaining to the flesh: but was quickened in the spirit.
In which spirit he also went and preached unto the spirits that were in prison, which were in time past disobedient, when the long suffering of God abode exceeding patiently in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing wherein few (that is to say, eight souls) were saved by water, which signifieth baptism that now saveth us, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but in that a good conscience consenteth to God, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is our right hand of God: and is gone into heaven, angels, power and might subdued unto him.*eschew (avoid)
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.
THE REVELATION OF ST JOHN Chpt 18
And after that, I saw another Angel come from heaven, having great power, and the earth was lightened with his brightness. And he cried mightily with a strong voice saying: Great Babylon is fallen, is fallen: and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of all foul spirits, and a cage of all unclean and hateful birds for all nations have drunken of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and her merchants are waxed rich of the abundance of her pleasures.
And I heard another voice from heaven, say: come away from her my people, that ye be not partakers in her sins, that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins are gone up to heaven, and God hath remembered her wickedness. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and give her double according to her works. And pour in double to her in the same cup which she filled unto you. And as much as she glorified herself and lived wantonly so much pour ye in for her of punishment and sorrow, for she said in her heart: I sit being a queen and am no widow and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come at one day, death, and sorrow, and hunger, and she shall be burnt with fire: for strong is the Lord God which judgeth her.
And the kings of the earth shall beweep her and wail over her, which have committed fornication with her, and have lived wantonly with her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, and shall stand afar off, for fear of her punishment, saying . Alas, Alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city: for at one hour is her judgment come. And the merchants of the earth shall weep and wail in themselves, for no man will buy their ware any more, the ware of gold and silver, and precious stones, neither of pearl, and raynes and purple, and scarlet, and all thine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass and of iron, and cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and bodies and souls of men.
And the apples that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee. And all things which were dainty, and had in price are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more. The merchants of these things which were waxed rich, shall stand afar off from her, for fear of the punishment of her, weeping and wailing, and saying: Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in raynes, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stone, and pearls: for at one hour so great riches is come to nought.
And every ship governor, and all they that occupied ships, and shipmen which work in the sea, stood afar off, and cried, when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying: what city is like unto this great city? And they cast dust on their heads, and cried weeping, and wailing, and said: Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea, by the reason of her costliness, for at one hour is she made desolate.
Rejoice over her thou heaven, and ye holy Apostles and Prophets: for God hath given your judgement on her. And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying: with such violence shall that great city Babylon be cast, and shall be found no more. And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more in thee: and no crafts man, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee. And the sound of a mill shall be heard no more in thee, and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride, shall be heard no more in thee, for thy merchants were the great men of the earth. And with thine enchantment were deceived all nations: and in her was found the blood of the Prophets, and of the saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
