I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a

you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a

who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...

You have His Holy Spirit within you, if you've asked Him to forgive
your sins, and come into your heart, to be your Saviour and Lord. The
Holy Spirit is basically a guarantee of the joy that awaits all
believers who accept His Free Love Gift. When the Philipppian jailer
asked Paul and Silas what he needed to do to be saved, he was told
"Believe On The Lord Jesus Christ" (Acts 16:31).

In the tradition of the Jewish Wedding, those who have done the one
thing that God requires (believe on The One He Has Sent (John 6:29)),
are known as "The Bride Of Christ", His Church (which in this case, is
not a building or denomination). Christ is the Groom, and He will sooner
more than later, come to take His Bride to be with Him forever.

With the Jewish Wedding tradition, the families basically choose the
future couple. The potential groom comes to explain to the father of the potential bride, what he is willing to pay them as a dowry, as losing her, means loss of labor and income to their family.

Then, there are 2 cups placed before the bride...one empty, and one
with wine. If she turns the empty cup upside down, without pouring
anything in it, it means she has declined, and the potential groom
leaves, never to darken their door again. But, if she pours wine into
the cup and takes a sip, it means that they are engaged...although they
will be chaperoned on dates, etc., not having any sexual relations until
after they are pronounced man and wife.

After the engagement is accepted, the Groom goes to prepare a room
off of His Father's House, where he and his new wife will live and
raise a family. The Bride has no idea when the Groom will return, as
the Groom's Father is the one who will decide when the house is ready.

At that moment, when The Groom's Father gives his OK, the Groom will
go get his Bride, with shouts, music, merriment, and cries of "Behold!!
The Bridegroom Comes!!"...and it'll come at any time, day or night. He
then will take his new bride to be married, and they will spend some
time in the new place, consumating the new relationship...then, they
are presented to everyone as husband and wife.

How this relates to Christ (The Groom) and The Church (His Bride) is
as follows:

The dowry was paid by the shedding of His Blood on The Cross to pay
for the sins of every human being who would ever walk this planet. The resurrection was God's Seal of Approval on what Christ did on the Cross.
Had there been one sin not paid for, Christ would still be in the grave,
and ALL of us would be wasting our time, bound for Hell and The Lake Of
Fire. The one sin unforgiven is rejecting what Christ did for them, to
pay for their sins. God gives mankind the free will and choice to either
accept what Christ did, or to reject it. Their eternal destiny depends
on their decision...Heaven or Hell...there is no third option.

Before He was crucified, In John 14, Jesus said to his disciples,
"Don't let your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also
in Me. In My Father's House are many dwelling places; if it were not
so, I would've told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And, if I
go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to
Myself; that where I am, there you may be also". This is a hint to the doctrine of The Rapture of The Church, expounded on by the Apostle Paul
in 1 Corinthians 15, and 1 Thessalonians 4.

For nearly 2000 years, Christ has been building a dwelling place or
mansion in Heaven for every single soul who would come to Christ for salvation, the only way to Heaven. While to us, it seems like a long
time, as the Scriptures note, "A day with The Lord is as a thousand
years, and a thousand years as a day"...so, He technically has only
been gone 2 days.

Someone calculated that had everyone come to accept God's Free Love
Gift, in the Person Of His Son, Jesus Christ...there would've been
plenty of room in Heaven for all of them...and plenty of room to spare.
Sadly, it appears that far more will reject that, feeling that "Heaven
Is Owed To Me". If we got what we deserved, we would've been stamped
out of existence long ago.

God is not willing that any should die in their sin, but that all
should come to repentance. But, there is a pre-determined Divine Quota
that God The Father has set (The Lord has added to the Church daily,
such as should be saved). Once "the fullness of the Gentiles has come
in", the Rapture will take place "in the twinkling of an eye", and in a millisecond of time, all true believers (not those just going through
the motions and playing church), will vanish from the Earth...both dead
and alive.

That includes all adults, and every child below the age of accountability. While the Bible does not indicate an exact age, speculation is that it's 12...Jewish girls assume womanhood at their Bas Mitzvah at 12, while the Jewish boys assume manhood at their Bar Mitzvah at 13. So, if that's the
case, it's likely everyone 10 or younger, will be Raptured...including the unborn children. All of the pregnant women who were left behind (because
they refused to accept Christ), will suffer an instant miscarriage. God
will make a monumental statement that "Life Begins At Conception".

God has either dealt with Israel or The Church...one or the other. As
The Apostle Paul was inspired to write "The blindness of Israel (for
rejecting their Messiah when He came the first time) has happened in part, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in". At that point, God will
turn His Emphasis back to Israel, to finish the last 7 years of "Daniel's
70th week". 483 years of the 490 years were completed at Christ's First
Coming.

Two-thirds of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles will tragically die
during a time of tribulation "never seen on the Earth, or will ever be
again", but the believing remnant of Jews and Gentiles will receive the greatest of spiritual blessings. Scripture does indicate that the 144,000
Jews will bring so many to Christ during The Tribulation, that they can't
be numbered; and that most of those will be martyred for their faith. Yet, they will live and reign with Christ for 1000 years during His Millennial Kingdom, following His Second Coming...when life on Earth will be as it
was meant to be.

By contrast, those who reject Christ, and take "The Mark Of The Beast" (which will be required to buy, sell, hold a job, or receive benefits),
they will have damned their souls to Hell and The Lake Of Fire forever.

At The Second Coming, Christ returns with The Church, His Bride, and
they are presented to the world as Husband And Wife.

The plan of salvation is so simple; sadly, most of the world will reject
it because of its simplicity.

One of the many poems that The Lord has given me is called "Salvation's
Roman Road"...you can read it at http://www.wx4qz.net/s198.htm -- with the entire collection at http://www.wx4qz.net/swj.htm

It's designed as a witness to those who have not yet done the one thing
God requires (believe on The One He Has Sent), and a ministry to those
who have. There are over 600 poems to the Glory Of God (He gave these to
me...I can't write poetry)...and while most are sacred with a Gospel
Witness, there are a few secular ones on my hobbies of the BBS, amateur
radio, and square dancing.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

If what He said in His Holy Word isn't enough, as you accept as what the Apostle Paul termed it, "The Unspeakable Gift"...meaning it's so wonderful that no words can describe it...then it never will be.

God didn't have to do what He did with Redemption's Plan for mankind.
Even though He knows the beginning from the end, and nothing is a surprise
to Him, He very well could've just consigned all of mankind to Hell and
The Lake Of Fire, including Adam and Eve when they broke the only rule
that God had given them (not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good
and evil).

We certainly did NOT deserve this free gift, and if we had gotten what
we deserved, we would've been stamped out of existence long ago. If God
had done that, the rest of the angels would've been serving God out of
fear, and not out of love and obedience. That's why both the angels and mankind have the gift of "Free Will And Choice". As Joshua told the
Israelites "Choose this day who you will serve. But, as for me and my
house, we will serve The Lord" (Joshua 24:15).

The one third of the angels in Heaven who rebelled with Lucifer's coup-de-tat against The Lord, have NO CHANCE at redemption. They were
in the presence of God...and The Lake Of Fire was created for them. They
were changed to horrific looking demons; and Satan (what Lucifer's name
was changed to)...both hate mankind so much, that they are doing all that
they can to keep folks from the Gospel, and take them to eternal torment
with them. Some of the angels so overstepped their authority, that God
cast them immediately into the abyss (bottomless pit). The Scriptures
also note in Revelation 20:10, that for those rejecting Christ, "they
shall be tormented day and night". Those who are in the pit of Hell now,
know the Truth...but it's too late for them to be saved. Basically, there
are no athiests or agnostics in Hell. And, as it notes in James 2:19,
"the demons believe, and tremble"...because they know what's coming.

Lucifer was originally the covering cherub, guarding the Throne Of God,
and literally "Heaven's Music Director". But, he inflated with Pride
(Isaiah 14:12-15, when he made his 5 "I Will" Statements), and he conned
one third of the angels to join him in his rebellion. While Satan still
has access to Heaven as "the accuser of the brethren", according to
Revelation 12, he will be permanently expelled from Heaven at the
midpoint of the Tribulation, the final 7 years of the rule of mortal
man on Earth, before Christ returns to set everything right...and to
destroy all those opposing Him. This last 3 1/2 years will be so evil
and horrific, that if Christ didn't return, everyone would die.

When Satan is cast out of Heaven, he will indwell the Antichrist (the
most evil person to ever walk this Earth), and he will seek to destroy
all those who oppose him...especially the Christians and the Jews. The
Beast (what God terms the Antichrist) will force everyone to take his
Mark, to buy, sell, hold a job, or receive benefits...basically to be
able to conduct financial commerce. However, doing so, damns them to
the Lake Of Fire for all eternity, as these who take The Mark Of The
Beast, are basically swearing allegiance to Satan as their eternal
master. Those who refuse the Mark will be cut off from all economic survival...and will be easily tracked, traced, arrested, tortured,
and finally beheaded. But, those who are martyred, will live and reign
with Christ during His Millennial Kingdom, after He returns to Earth.

Yet, God's Plan of Redemption for mankind was launched before the
foundation of the world, when The Lamb Of God, His Only Begotten Son
Jesus Christ, was slain on an Old Rugged Cross, and resurrected the
third day, both according to the Scriptures. Jesus was, is, and always
will be, God in The Flesh. When the disciples asked Jesus "Show us The
Father", He replied "If you've seen Me, you've seen The Father"
(John 14:8-9).

For those who've done "the one thing God requires"...which is
"believing on The One He has sent" (in the Person of His Son, Jesus
Christ) (John 6:29, Acts 16:31), they will be at the Bema Judgment
Seat right after the rapture of the church (1 Corinthians 15:51-55,
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, and John 14:2-3). At the Bema, ONLY their
workswill be judged...NOT the believers themselves...as The Blood of
Jesus will have washed away all their sins...past, present, and future,
the moment they believed on, and accepted Christ as Saviour and Lord. Otherwise, Heaven would be empty.

Just one sin not paid for would for, would mean that Christ would still
be in the grave, and everyone would be on their way to Hell and The Lake
Of Fire. The resurrection is God's Seal Of Approval on what Christ did
on The Cross. As the Scripture notes in 2 Corinthians 5:21 "He who knew
no sin, became sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of
God in Him". Now, His Grace is a License To Serve, and NOT a License To
Sin. There will be some believers at the Bema Judgment whose garments
will smell like smoke, as all of their fleshly deeds will have been
burned up, and they will have nothing to offer to The Lord, and they
will be ashamed...yet, they'll still be in Heaven...basically, "by the
skin of their teeth".

The plan of salvation is so simple, yet most of mankind, because of
his pride, will reject it because of its simplicity. Isaiah 64:6 notes
that "all of our righteousness is as filthy rags" (literally, bloody
menstrual cloths) before God. A simple prayer of repentance, belief,
and contrition before The Lord, acknowledging that He is the Only
Way to Heaven (John 14:6, Acts 4:12), and asking Him to forgive one
of their sins, to come into their heart and life as Lord and Saviour,
belief that He died for them, and rose on the third day according to
the Scriptures, is what's known as being "born again" (spiritually).

It's known as the ABC's of Salvation:

A)dmit you are a sinner, and that nothing you can do will save you, and qualify you for Heaven.

B)elieve that Jesus Christ died for you on an Old Rugged Cross, and
rose from the dead on the third day, according to the Scriptures, and
that He is the only Way to Heaven (We are saved by grace through faith,
and not of works (Ephesians 2:8-9).

C)all upon The Lord to save you.

Also, God knows whether one is sincere in this prayer, or if one is
just "going through the motions". If the latter is the case, they
basically might as well not even bother...although it'll be to their
eternal detriment. Those who choose to refuse God's Free Love Gift,
will stand before Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne...and
have to answer for every sin in thought, word, and deed, that they
have ever done. There will be no question of guilt on any sin, and
they will be compelled by the Truth of The Word Of God, to bow before
Christ, and confess Jesus as Lord (Philippians 2:9-11). Tragically,
salvation is too late for them, and they will be cast into The Lake
Of Fire.

Now, after one is "saved", we STILL have the sin nature to deal with
every day...just as we wake up to body odor, bad breath, the call of
nature (bowels and bladder), plus all the other physical ailments we
had already. We will only be free of these at death, or at the rapture.
And, in Heaven, there will be "nothing that defiles", or anything that
mars the purity, beauty, and happiness, of Heaven...that includes the memory/thought of loved ones who died in their sins (refusing God's
Free Love Gift), or those who missed the Rapture, because they didn't
do the one thing God required (believing on The One He has sent).

Plus, when the saved get to Heaven, as they eagerly bowed before
Christ while still alive on Earth (to accept His Free Love Gift),
they will just as eagerly bow before Him in praise, proclaiming
"Worthy The Lamb That Was Slain" (Revelation 5:9-11).

The one thing that separates the Bible from all other "religious books"
is PROPHECY. God has declared what will happen in advance, and one third
of the Bible is prophecy. Everything that God has declared as prophecy,
has been fulfilled up until now. The rapture of the church is the next
event on God's Prophetic Calendar, followed by the 7 year Tribulation
(the Earth will have never seen anything like it, nor will anything like
it occur again), the Second Coming Of Christ, the Millennial Kingdom of
Peace, the Great White Throne Judgment, then eternity.

For one to be a true prophet of God, they basically preached "the
whole counsel of God", and were right 100% of the time. If a so called
prophet was wrong just once, they would pay for that with their life
(they were killed). Nostradamus, Jeanne Dixon, and so many others,
don't even come close when it comes to predicting the future. Tomorrow
is promised to no one, let alone the next 5 seconds...and only The Lord
knows what tomorrow will bring.

As for the Rapture, it occur before the next sunset, sunrise, or it
may still be several years away. But, I firmly believe we are in the
season of Christ's Return for His Church (the rapture), and that it's
closer by the second. It will happen in the twinkling of an eye...less
than 1/1000 of a second. Once the world realizes what has occurred,
it'll be too late to become part of it. I personally feel that it will
occur sooner more than later.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just

I'm sure you'll admit that you enjoy receiving gifts...be it for a
birthday, anniversary, holiday, etc.; especially if it was something
you knew you could not afford, but it was something that you greatly
needed.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

I'd like to tell you about a FREE GIFT that you can receive today...a
Gift that was purchased for YOU a long time ago...by a Special Friend...
who knows you better than you know yourself...and who loved you so much,
that He gave His Life for you...to obtain for you...the gift of Life Everlasting. This gift is FREE to ALL who wish to receive it. In fact,
it's Heavenly...Eternal Salvation through Jesus Christ.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.

For those who may be thinking that clicking on the "Get A Free Gift"
icon or related link was NOT going to be this...I want to point out that
the Free Gift Of Salvation in Jesus Christ is FREE TO ALL WHO WOULD
RECEIVE IT...it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether or not you wish to do so.

On March 28, 1978, I was right where you are now...I was offered this
FREE GIFT...and I'll admit I didn't understand it...and you may not
understand it, either. But, the best way I can tell you is excerpts
from the songs He has given me.

***

If you're reading these poems here, before The Rapture hits,
The choice is yours here now to make, your life to Christ, commit.
For when God's Clock, strikes the time, that the saints will rise,
Happening so rapidly, too quick to say goodbye.

Tragedy at Rapture...you can avoid that day.
Repent of sin, and come to Christ...the Truth, The Life, The Way.
Ask Him now to save your soul, and wash away your sins.
And, on that Glorious Rapture morn, you'll go to be with Him.

The Day The Spirit Of The Lord Came And Pricked My Heart;
These songs He gave me are a witness of His Gift He did impart.
And now, dear friend...I ask you...have you had a day like this??
Decide today...eternally...your choice...doom or bliss??

Doing good deeds in this life, and what's right in his eyes...
...won't get man into Heaven...no matter how hard he tries.
Christ's Death and Resurrection is for EVERY man and nation...
And how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation??

Man thinks that praying to anybody, gets Heaven at the grave.
But, no other name but Jesus, is given; whereby we must be saved.
A person, a figure, a church denomination; or others...can't get it done.
For it's written there in God's Holy Bible...
There's none righteous...no, not one.

Your sins are a barrier between you and God;
Fellowship apart, as down lifes path you've trod.
'Come, let us reason', says the Lord...for you He truly knows...
Your scarlet sins...covered with His Blood...become white as snow.

Precious was the love of God...even with man's sin...
He sent His Son to die for us, while we rebelled to Him.
King Of Kings...Lord Of Lords...The Way...The Life...The Truth
Accept Him now...He loves you so...Gentile or a Jew.

For God So Loved The World, that He gave His Only Son...
To Seek, and Save That Which Was Lost.
For it does not matter who or what you are...
For EVERYONE is EQUAL AT THE CROSS.

Jesus...God's Son...He knew the consequences the sin of pride would bear.
Born of a Virgin...He preached the Kingdom of God
To any, and all that would hear.
But, He was crucified between two thieves on Good Friday...
And to Him, one cursed and yelled...
But, the other was saved...for he knew
What Good Is Your Pride Going To Do You In Hell??

Death Without The Lord is bad...to be in Hell for sin...
But for those in Christ, it's Heavenly...they'll never sin again.
Make Jesus as your Lord and Friend Today...and tarry not...
He died to save you from your sins...and cleanse your blemished spots.

Only one of two places awaits everyone, when death knocks on their door.
Heaven Or Hell...no place in between...to clean up one's lifetime score.
For you are saved only by grace through faith, not of works to boast.
The decision to reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord,
Is one you'll regret the most.

You only have one life to live; be careful what you ask.
Be righteous, truthful in your deeds; not behind a mask.
For all your deeds and your life will both soon be past.
And only those things, done for Christ, will eternally last.

Like a roaring lion, seeking souls each hour;
Satan wants your life today, eternally to be devoured.
As the covering cherub, it's where it all did start.
His subtle lies, they will ensnare, your unsuspecting heart.

The Lord will return very soon...believe now, and don't wait...
For if you listen to Satan's lies...you'll find that it's too late.
Accept Christ and His Word for you...let both fill your heart and mind...
And, on the day of Rapture...you won't be left behind.

What more could I have done for you?? I loved you so, My Child.
So much that I was spat upon, whipped, cursed, and reviled.
I wanted you, and loved you so with all My Life and Heart...
But, it was to be your sin that would tear us both apart.

I let you nail me to that Cross...to suffer and be killed.
But, I'd Rise Again That Easter Morn...Redemption's Plan Fulfilled.
Shed Blood From My Nail Pierced Hands...Paid Sins Death Stung Fee...
Removed Disgrace...Amazing Grace...Do You Have Time For Me??

For it's the Resurrection, we celebrate and proclaim...
The Gospel is for ALL mankind...regardless of your name.
Accept Christ as your Lord today, and let Him your life change...
For with His Resurrection, we'll never be the same.

The Lord...He saved my life...The Lord...He saved my soul...
And, like with me...he waits for you...to come to Him also. Saviour...Lord...King Of Kings...He's knocking at your hearts door.
Receive Him today...He's coming soon...to reign forevermore.

But, to all those who have rejected God,
Without protection, they think 'all is well'.
As down the path of sin and death they trod,
And tragically, are one heartbeat from Hell.

The wicked shall be turned into hell;
But, for those, who Christ, they do receive.
Their joy at death, no mortal tongue can tell;
Eternal blessings for those who believed.

Years from now, you'll remember
When crossing to the other side.
Seeing the Glory Of Heaven,
Or fires of Hell as you died.

"Lost without a compass, on eternal scale."
"To those refusing Jesus Christ, the Lord who can not fail."
"For all the unregenerate, preferring sins desire."
"Never ending torment, in the Lake Of Fire."

Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
What will you do with Jesus Christ?? God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??

For one day soon, God's Grace will end...and it will be too late.
For all must die...then judgment there...what will be your fate??
Accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour...and Friend Forever there...
Refuse Him, and He'll truly be your most feared nightmare.

Don't put off your decision...saying 'the time is just not right'.
If you refuse to accept Jesus...and if you die tonight;
You'll face Christ as your Judge there...on that somber day...
Regretting ignoring Him and His Vessels for your sinful ways.

Where will you be...eternally...When it's time for you to die??
It all depends on what you do with Jesus...God's Son...
On whom, you must decide.
To accept Him as Lord...as well as your Saviour...
As He lived and died and rose for you...
Or, if you willfully...choose to reject Him...
Your choice between bliss and doom.

When God's Spirit speaks to you, friend...don't take a chance.
For you may regret, if you just give a furtive glance.
The Invitation to receive Eternal Life so dear;
And, this could be the only time the Gospel you would hear.

The one sin unforgiven, even those not in this poem,
It seems I've covered everything, but what is this unknown??
Rejection of Christ Jesus, who died upon that Cross.
And resurrected from the grave, to redeem the lost.

Sinner, Seek The Lord Today...while He may be found.
The Grace of God will end one day...and the only sound
You'll hear from Him at the Judgment Of The Great White Throne:
Depart, ye cursed...to Eternal Fire...for you, I've never known.

If you wait, 'til it's too late, you're cast into the fire.
You'll suffer for eternity, the cost for sins desire.
All could've been prevented, if you, in life, had prayed,
For Christ to save your soul from sin, and live in life He gave.

One day, on bended knee, mankind will bow
Declaring there that Jesus Christ is Lord.
To the glory of God the Father, now;
In Truth Of His Word, sharper than a sword.

'What will you do with Jesus Christ?', God asks of you today.
The choice is yours to make, my friend, will you accept His Way??
For every knee will bow before Him, on that final day.
'Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All' every tongue will say.

What is your cry?? You, a lost sinner...
To Jesus Christ the Lord today?
In repentence & sorrow, will you accept Him??
The Truth, The Life, & The Way.
'Dear Jesus, Save Me, be the Lord Of My Life';
Grateful that He did it for you.
Or do you reject Him??
And, hear Him say 'Depart; for you I never knew'.

While God commands, He will not force, accepting of His Gift.
It's your choice if you want Christ, your burden, there to lift.
But, if yourself, there want to pay, for sins done by the score,
Suffering in the Lake Of Fire, will be yours forevermore.

So, what will your Judgment Choice now be??
Don't think that you will live for many years.
To no one, is tomorrow guaranteed...
Will you repent today, with bitter tears??

So, bow before Him now, today repent.
For He truly knows the best for you.
Then, daily serving Him, you'll gladly say
'Today, Oh, Lord...what will you have me do??'

Betrayed; to you, I would be, if judgment didn't warn.
To be saved, you must repent, and again to be reborn.
God won't force His Will on you, but you now, must choose.
Will you accept Christ Jesus?? Or His Gift, Refuse??

The wages of sin, are never reduced, for everyone living on Earth.
But, physical death, not really the end, if you've received The New Birth.
Turn and repent, from your sinful deeds, and ask Christ to save you today.
For He did defeat, both Hell and the Grave, and all will face Him one day.

Will this be your final altar call??
The final chance for you, to Jesus, come??
For people praying for you, in this hall;
For you to choose your true eternal home.

Those not in God's Kingdom, you can avoid this group.
Today, repent of all your sins, let Christ your life regroup.
Ask The Lord to save your soul, and wash your sins away.
For He is, The King Of Kings, The Truth, The Life, The Way.

All roads lead to God...but to Heaven, only one.
The Bema, or The Great White Throne, Judgment won't be fun.
Whether you served Christ on Earth, or your sins desires.
Either joy in Heaven...or tormenting, eternal fire.

Christ alone, the perfect picture, of God's Love and Grace.
Your choice on what what you do with Him, determines who you'll face.
Your Best Friend, He there will be, if His Blood's applied.
Your Worst Nightmare, rejecting Him, you'll be terrified.

Your righteousness as filthy rags, you can this mess, now lose.
If in all humility, Christ's Gift, you don't refuse.
Turn now from your life of sin, accept Christ Jesus now.
And serve Him now with all your heart, before Him humbly bow.

Going through the motions, does this sound like you??
You've grieved The Lord who loves you so, in all the sin you'd do.
If you've not been born again, now is the day to choose;
Accept Christ as your Lord today; serve Him...don't refuse.

Please don't be one of the souls, hated by The Lord.
He wants you to accept His Son...come now, get on board.
The Glory Train is waiting now...come kneel there at The Cross.
As Christ died, and rose again, to redeem the lost.

The Bible in a nutshell, in John Three, Sixteen.
God loved the World, He sent His Son, sinless, pure and clean.
To those accepting Christ's death, paid for our sin and strife,
That they would never perish, but have eternal life.

***

Would you like to receive this FREE GIFT today?? All you need to do is
admit to God that you are a sinner, and that you can NOT save yourself.

Right now, come to God, just as you are...no matter what you've done in
your life...or how evil...and be willing, with His Help, to turn from
the way you've lived (repent)...accepting by faith, that:

Jesus Christ, God's Only Begotten Son, left the Glory of Heaven, to be
born of a Virgin, to live on Earth as a human being in all ways like us
(except without sin), that He suffered died for you on an Old Rugged
Cross, that He rose from the dead to provide you Eternal Life, is
coming back soon to Earth to reign in Power and Glory, and He wants you
to rule and reign with Him.

All you need to do is pray a simple prayer of contrition...to ask Him
to forgive your sins, to come into your life and be your personal
Saviour, and the Lord of Your Life.

**

SINNERS PRAYER

"Lord Jesus...I admit that I'm a sinner. And, I know that nothing I
can do will save myself".

"Right now, just as I am...I come to you in faith...believing that You
died for me, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures".

"I'm sorry for the way I've lived, and I'm willing to turn from my sin.
Dear Jesus, Come into my heart, forgive my sin...save me...and be the
Lord of my life".

"By Your Grace, I will follow and obey You in all that I do".

"Thank You For Being My Friend For Life. In Your Name, I Pray. Amen".

***

If you prayed that prayer, and REALLY MEANT IT...I can assure you that
on the Authority of God's Word...that you have Eternal Life right now...
that all the angels of Heaven are rejoicing...and I rejoice with you...
because I'll see you before the Throne Of God one day.

The best thing for you now is to spend time with God each day...just
talk with Him as if you were talking to a close personal friend. After
all, He is just that...He sticks closer than a brother. You can talk
with him at any time, day or night, and never have to wait. Read His
Word, the Holy Bible...be baptized, worship, and fellowship with other Christians in a Church where Christ is preached. God will mold you into
the image of His Son, little by little...and when you mess up, just
confess to Him your error, and then ask and claim His Forgiveness. He
promises to never leave you, or forsake you.
