Religion / Spirituality Poems (1,340)

Have you ever wondered what would have happened if Adam had stood up for Eve instead of blaming her by saying it was that woman you gave me?
I mean that was a pretty ungrateful thing to say to God.

What would have happened if he took accountability...
The Bible states in Genesis that he was with her
If he could actually see the gift that she was from God to him and in turn protected her from being beguiled by Satan instead of blaming her as he did, especially as he was with her.
Plus blaming God for giving her to him in the first place.

I wonder if he had a little bit of humility, would we be in the same place as we are now?

I hope you enjoy this little playlet and it helps us reflect on our human condition.




THE ULTIMATE LOVE STORY



God: Adam, Where is eve?

Adam: My Lord she is behind the fig tree

God: Adam, ask her to show herself to me

Adam: My Lord she cannot

God: Why will she not show herself to me?

Adam: She is ashamed

God: Why is she ashamed?

Adam: A serpent appeared to her and deceived her my Lord

God: And this serpent what did he do?

Adam: He tricked her my Lord, I should have been there for her.

God: How did he trick her Adam?

Adam: He told her she would not die if she were to eat of the forbidden fruit

God: And what happened Adam?

Adam: She took of the fruit and ate, my Lord, I am so sorry!

God: And you Adam did you partake of the fruit?

Adam: After Eve partook of the forbidden fruit she offered some for me to taste

God: And did you taste the fruit Adam?

Adam: I was tempted Lord having seen Eve had not died, yet I could not partake

God: What stopped you my son?

Adam: Eve was snared and deceived I was not, I would have had to be deliberately
disobedient to eat of this fruit

God: Yes indeed Eve was tricked and deceived, It could have so easily have been you

Adam: Yes my Lord I know, that is why I beg you My Lord spare her life

God: I am so sorry Adam I cannot; the wages for sin is death

Adam: Oh no my Lord please let her live for she is bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh

God: I know Adam but you both knew my law

Adam: I shall be alone lord for there is no mate in all of the earth for me, every living Creature you have set before me has its mate

God: I shall create you another

Adam: I know you can Lord but I don't want another, I want Eve

God: I know you do Adam but Eve must die

Adam: But I love her Lord

God: I know you do and so do I

Adam: So please I beg you don't let her die

God: I am so sorry Adam she has to die

Adam: Lord is there any other way?

God: Someone has to pay the price for sin

Adam: Then let it be I Lord; let me die in place of Eve

God: You do truly love her my son, then you shall take the place of Eve.

***********************

And so it was that Adam took the place of Eve, he dies that she may live & He bore her sin; yet because Adam had never sinned, death could not bind him and he was resurrected & Eve was restored.

As we are well aware this conversation did not happen in Genesis between the 1st Adam and God, Yet throughout the bible we see this interaction between the 2nd Adam and God the Father.

Unlike the 1st Adam, the second Adam being Our Lord Jesus Christ who loved us so much He was willing to bear all our sins to restore us back to His Father.

By one man the human race fell

And by one man the human race is restored

God is calling us to love like this, for there is no grater love than a man lay down his life for another. ©

It seems to me we are not allowed to be constantly happy,

Just when times look good, everything worked out as it should,
suddenly the world, is clear as mud,

No reason for it that I can see, just how it seems it is meant to be,

Laugh today, cry tomorrow, happiness then sorrow,

A roller coaster of emotion, that's life, life in motion!

My God, why's it so
As one year has passed by
Nothing new
Lot's of old, my reason is why!

What do they think
Why do they, impose
Brass in full clang
From the pew's they arose.

As the man pulls the rope
Over treetop, sound goe's
The call to the people
A gathering of soul.

Yet my grass has been tread
With like minded folk
Who take my concern
In their stride battered, joke.

May I please have your address
So upon I may park
A lot full of cars
They leave lines in full mark.

My God for a year
I've asked with a smile
Yellow tape, is up
Short in feet, not a mile.

I'm not real sure
Why you never complied
Your Priest asked you twice
While I only advised.

Perhaps you feel just
In your thought you display
Immunity in life



~Hmmmm, is that a learned way!?~



~Bentlee~

Down 'pon the riverside
where the gentle rhythms flow
John's dunkin' 'em for the baptisms
and all the folks dressed in whites
is smiling and hawing
'cos John, he bein' old school
puts them in real good
just like Father Cleetus
used to do with bible in one hand
and other hand straight up in the air
a lightning rod for God
be that man
for a soul caint resist
a little saving
in these parts
as the rains came down
to wash the sinners
and me and Leroy
made for shelter
But John he got his eye in
and calls unto me
for never he seen a soul
more'n need of releasin'
from the evils that a man do
than this 'un
And little Leroy's laughin'
from the bank
but I'm waist in
and John opens the good book
and says
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. Psalm 1:1
Was you mocking me from the banks son?
You and that good for nuttin' sinner Leroy
Take a gulp of the good water son
And down I go
heavin' and howling
in the mighty hands of John
while on the bank
the sisters are singing
Awake my soul
and the thunder cracked
and day became night
and just as sure
the evil done left me
and a soul
that had withered
to a stick
was replenished
so surely
and John's mighty hands
done lift me from the river
and unto me he says
All flesh will see the salvation of God Luke 3:6

I know there's something more, I know that we go on, perchance in a different form,

I know there's those that trust, in a God, and they feel they must,

I know that their belief, helps them in their life, brings them relief,

I know that some don't know, don't care, where they are or where they go,

I know that some believe, that we are nothing and then we leave,

I know I will never know, who we are or where we go, until it ends,
and then hopefully, we will still be friends!

A strange light enveloped me, mystically, whimsically, suddenly,
and all that was and all that could be, was there for me, for
me to see,
But it was not just for me, and not just personally, it was the whole world laid
bare, and it was in my care,

I could feel the suffering, I could feel the pain, from everyone
that had come and gone,

Every thought and every lie, and every mournful tearful
cry,

I knew it all was a part of me, and everything was reality,

And when I awoke, it was crystal clear, that we are all one with nothing
to fear.

Exposing the world
to your vile Pricks
Ejaculating luciferian serums
Corrupting our DNA.

Raping our throats
and nostrils
Searing
our consciousness

We know
what you want Satan
to defile the holy temple
of the holy body

So it shall be
in the last days
as in the days
of Noah

You desire
to be like God
but you will never
be God

God knows our very thoughts,
You are a counterfeit
You are a fraud
who lies steals and destroys

You come
to deceive
the world
with poison

You desire to control
through Luciferace tracking,
graphene Oxide,
parasites and disease

You are a parasite
and disease
to all humanity
and to all of Heaven

You are eternally
exiled from heaven
with all your
demon minions

In your hatred rath
plan destroying
anything made
in God's image

Yahweh is still on the throne
Christ has paid the ransom
and holds the keys
to Hades and hell

Your final
Destination
Because as you know
The Lamb wins!!! ©

All the rich men say
I think I'll plow my hobby garden today
Then I'll clean and wax my hobby 57 Chevrolet

We'll drink champagne
And play cards a lot
While out sailing on our hobby yacht

I wouldn't want anyone's feelings to be hurt
So I'll show up to shake hands on Sunday
At my hobby church

Then we'll make reservations at our hobby restaurant
We're so humble and modest
Our hobbies always look so nonchalant

We'll always be know as man and wife
Though we're not married to each other
Cause it's easier to be married to a hobby life

What awaits on the other side
After death takes one's breath away
Billions have taken that last ride
Yet what awaits no one can say

A belief is just a belief
It may provide some with solace
And give a measure of relief
But it's not a proof in this case

All persons will know the answer
When death comes knocking on their door
That's all that can be said thus far
And how it may be evermore


(iambic tetrameter)

Imagine when you were born, when you came here, you had no knowledge, nothing to
fear,. it was all an adventure, a wonderous ride, amazing things from every side, oh sure
you were told you cant do this, you cant do that, but it was not serious from where you sat
and then you were five and you started school, you started to learn to obey the rule, you were told about God and how wonderful he was, but he'd send you to hell, well, just because, he could, unless you did what you should, now you need to start to follow some rules, lose who you are, line up with the fools, its time to condition cause its the tradition,
Just dont ask a question, allow it to be, I was once you, I want you to be me, you can never stand up you need to sleep,, let me show you the rest of the sheep they are waiting for you to stand in your line, yes over there, thats just fine.
We will round you up when we have no need, make sure there's no food, nothing to feed, a starving nation that Band Aid cant assist, you wont be rembered, you wont even be missed!
So, can you not see? we are all born equal?,, its you and its me, noone owns the earth or space, we are but the human race, I own my life, I own today, its not for anyone else to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
