Good poem by jedidah.
Good verses.
Ping; misspelled your name in earlier post.
“Good poem by jedidah.”
It’s gibberish. If there was a story behind it or explanation, it might give it some credence. As it stands, meaningless.
If a parent gets a poem or drawing from their child, they praise them. They post it on the fridge. But when the child becomes an adult, they are supposed to put away childish things. A stick figure is no longer meaningful when it does not reflect the potential skill that a little effort can produce. Instead it shows laziness, a lack of disciplined effort, and disrespect for the person who is receiving it.
“Good verses.”
Are there any other kind?
The source cited is “bible” but most of this post is just a vanity. It would be more meaningful for Christian to simply post a verse and say something he or she got out of it. Or even just say, “Hey everybody, this verse jumped out at me when I was reading today and I thought I’d share it with you.”
The poem kind of sounds like there is supposed to be some sort of favor on Mike Pence but not on Trump. Again, the words are hard to make any sense out of.
If this is supposed to be some sort of prophecy, such a claim would demean prophecy down to the level of fortune tellers and horoscopes.
Why not just say, God is real happy with Mike Pence for his faithful service?
And is there some sort of cryptic hint that Trump is headed for failure?
I don’t want any false prophets coming back and saying “I told you so.”
If any such prophecies have been posted on this forum and have EVER been fulfilled, please point them out so I can recognize that someone is speaking a word from God. Otherwise, quit pretending.
When I first saw these types of posts on the forum, I tried to keep an open mind. Others warned me what they were. And time has proven the warnings to be correct.
By the way, the passage posted is one that many “faith” (aka give-me-your-money) preachers often cite to tell others to dig deep and give to them. But that is not what this passage is about. Yes, she gave her all. But the point of the story was a condemnation of the wicked people who allowed this poor, faithful widow to be exploited.
The Old Testament said that when a person appears before the Lord, they should not come empty-handed. But it also says to take care of widows, not to rob them.
Immediately after this incident, the Lord spoke His Olivet discourse, beginning with the message that the temple they were admiring was coming down. God was NOT pleased.
