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 a man in a factory working ...
and the place was like hot and horrible and rude and wretched ...
and the man had worked there many many many of his days ...
even as though he would work there all the days of his life ...
and there was an air (error) of being ...being justified for working all the days of a life ...
and the high honor of supporting the family ...
and the sacrifice of slavery and being away from the family ..."to make ends meet" ...
and the "protestant work ethic " was like the delusion of proudly slaving away ...under pharaoh ...
and all the lies and deception and robbery to cover ...
and all the wretched rude rule to put up with ...
even the eating of dung ...
and all of all made proud because of it ...justified because of it ...
even like a human sacrifice ...on the altar of industry ...
even like a self martyrdom ...for the sake of the family ...
even the same and such is the foul filthy proudly pathetic protestant work ethic ...
and i was shown the man within ...within the filthiness of the factory ...
and the man had lost his shoes ...
and there were no more shoes for him to be found ...
even if he left and went to find and buy the more ...
and he could not work without his shoes ...his boots ...
and the man wandered and wondered what he would do ...without shoes ...
and what it meant to be without shoes ...
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: and your clothes are not waxed old upon you, nor are thy shoes waxed old upon thy feet. Ye have eaten no bread nor drunk wine or strong drink: that ye might know, how that he is the Lord your God.
THE GOSPELL OF ST. LUKE Chpt 15
And he said: a certain man had two sons, and the younger of them said to his father: father, give me my part of the goods that to me belongeth. And he divided unto them his substance. And not long after, the younger son gathered all that he had together, and took his journey into a far country, and there he wasted his goods with riotous living. And when he had spent all that he had, there rose a great dearth through out all that same land, and he began to lack. And he went and clave to a citizen of that same country, which sent him to his field, to keep his swine. And he would fain have filled his belly with the cods that the swine ate: and no man gave him.
Then he came to him self and said: how many hired servants at my fathers have bread enough, and I die for hunger. I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him: father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son, make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose and went to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And the son said unto him: father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. But his father said to his servants: bringforth that best garment and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. And bring hither that fatted calf, and kill him, and let us eat and be merry: for this my son was dead, and is alive again, he was lost, and is now found. And they began to be merry. The elder brother was in the field, and when he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard minstrelsy and dancing, and called one of his servants, and asked what those things meant. And he said unto him: thy brother is come, and thy father had killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. And he was angry, and would not go in. Then came his father out and entreated him. He answered and said to his father: Lo these many years have I done thee service, neither brake at any time thy commandment, and yet gavest thou me never so much as a kid to make merry with my lovers: but as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy goods with harlots, thou hast for his pleasure killed the fatted calf. And he said unto him: Son, thou wast ever with me, and all that I have is thine: it was meet that we should make merry and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again: and was lost, and is found*grotes : refers to grain; oats in Middle Eng
THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 1
And they which were sent, were of the Pharisees. And they asked him, and said unto him: why baptisest thou then if thou be not Christ, nor *Helias, neither a Prophet? John answered them saying: I baptise with water: but one is come among you, whom ye know not, he it is that cometh after me, which was before me, whose shoe latchet I am not worthy to unloose. These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan where John did baptise.
The next day John saw Jesus coming unto him, and said: behold the lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. This is he of whom I said. After me cometh a man, which was before me, for he was ere then I, and I knew him not: but that he should be declared to Israel, therefore am I come baptising with water.
