NONSENSE NEWS

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

06-04-2022

Sometimes I get so tired,
Of all the nonsense news,
My inbox quickly fills up,
With their different views.

Their goal is to make me,
Think exactly like them,
Both parties try to do it,
Yes Republican and Dem.

Sifting all the headlines,
A war of words is so clear,
But I am not so gullible,
It just passes out my ear.

Eventually I reach a point,
Where I have had enough,
It becomes such a burden,
So I trash all that stuff.

Yes, I don’t even read it,
I already know the score,
Things just never change,
Forget their verbal war!

SPOKEN IN PARABLES — KJV (King James Version) Bible Verse List

Posted on April 13, 2026 by Bill Kochman

#Scriptures #BibleStudy #BibleVerses #SpokenInParables #SpeakInParables #Parables #Parable

“And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying . . . And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand . . . All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.”
Matthew 13:2-3a, 10-13, 34-35, KJV

“And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables . . .”
Mark 3:23, KJV

“And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable. And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them. And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?”
Mark 4:10-13, KJV

“And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be? And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.”
Luke 8:9-10, KJV

PLOW AHEAD!

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

01-01-2017

You can whine about yesterday,
Or look ahead to tomorrow,
You can sink with your past,
Or today’s hope you can borrow.

God takes care of little things,
Even a bird like the sparrow,
So trust Him for the future now,
Or worry will fill your marrow.

No use fretting for what’s done,
We all make a mistake or two,
Plowing forward is what’s best,
What else can you do?

NON-BINARY?

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

12-22-2016

Away with your non-binary crap,
It’s just that old Devil’s trap,
You want to make your own rules.
But you’re really Satan’s tools.

In Genesis God set His own norms,
Male and female the chosen forms.
His rule is this: heterosexuality,
Not misguided gender neutrality.

Time now to lose your confusion,
Need to forsake Satan’s delusion.
Repent now while you’re still able,
Get rid of that blasphemous label.
