LIES AND EMBELLISHMENTS

by Bill Kochman

10-04-2024

Now, if there is one thing you need to learn,
All politicians embellish, lie and exaggerate.
The truth is that dishonesty is in their blood,
Yes, even before they’ve gotten out the gate,

In their minds, facts are actually fluid things,
Which can be molded to support their view,
Sure, just a little bit of tweaking here & there,
To convince voters that what they say is true.

However, if their fact is not really the full fact,
Then are their words not in actuality a big lie?
Yet many people are willing to just let it slide,
So should we not at least ask ourselves why?

It seems that folks are willing to be deceived,
If doing so demonstrates their loyal support,
They know their candidate isn’t being honest,
And yet they still allow them the truth distort.

So it’s all simply a game of lies and deception,
Where voters support a candidate at any cost,
They’re willing to overlook his embellishments,
That is, just as long as that election is not lost.

DEBATE MODERATORS

by Bill Kochman

10-03-2024

Well look at those debate moderators,
They’re so biased and just full of crap,
They broke rules and fact checked JD,
But they were caught in their own trap.

Whether it was JD or President Trump,
Moderator tactics have been the same,
Maintaining a tight lid on Republicans,
They play such a discriminatory game.

They obviously all lean towards the left,
So Republicans do not get a fair shake,
But when those two ladies took on JD,
Oh boy, they made one terrible mistake!

That boy was not about to just let it go,
And so he put them solidly in their place,
Having no recourse they turned off mics,
Which left those moderators in disgrace.

Post debate banter was indeed so fierce,
As those two hypocrites came under fire,
All the social networks were quite abuzz,
As folks directed to those mods their ire.

So the truth was once again confirmed,
That those TV networks can’t be trusted,
And thusly I will now end my poetic tale,
About how two moderators were busted.

AGAINST THE GRAIN — a poem and song by Bill Kochman

AGAINST THE GRAIN

by Bill Kochman

09-30-2024

While I could just be like everybody else,
And speak and preach the same refrain,
That’s not what God has asked me to do,
No, He called me to go against the grain.

Now I don’t do it just so I can be different,
And it is not that I only want to complain,
But when I examine the Holy Scriptures,
I just understand them in a different vein.

So many folks mirror what they’ve heard,
They don’t study the Bible for themselves,
Merely repeating their church’s traditions,
While the Bible sits dusty on their shelves.

But as for me, I am really just not like them,
I so enjoy digging deeply into God’s Word,
Then after the Holy Spirit has guided me,
I share all those things which I have heard.

But, you see, that is where the rub comes,
I teach stuff that others don’t want to hear,
If it’s contrary to their own church doctrine,
Well then they won’t even give me their ear.

But God did not call me to be a manpleaser,
And political correctness just isn’t my style,
Thus even tho some folks speak against me,
I simply won’t turn down my preaching dial.

By God’s grace I shall continue on this path,
Regardless of naysayers who do not agree,
Tho condemnation may be thrown my way,
I will still be what God has chosen me to be.

FALLING AWAY

by Bill Kochman

09-30-2024

What could cause a great falling away,
I have one idea, please hear what I say.
A great disappointment could be sure,
If you don’t see what you are hoping for.

For many Christians it is Christ’s return,
It is the big event for which many yearn.
But what if the doctrine just isn’t sound,
And the Lord just never comes around?

Even tho some waited for many years,
In the end they’ll all be filled with tears.
Why it failed to happen nobody knows,
But years pass & disappointment grows.

So with disappointment faith can be lost,
As folks will no longer follow at any cost.
Thus we see our faith taking a major hit,
As many Christians say it is time to quit.

A great falling away, can you see it now?
Do you understand the why & the how?
The tragedy is that what I stated is true,
So many Christians don’t have any clue.

They place their faith in what will not be,
Their eyes are closed & they cannot see.
Deceived by false doctrine they are blind,
For futurism has fully clouded their mind.

Although the Bible makes the truth plain,
They believe a huge lie though it is in vain.
Believing men’s doctrines is quite absurd,
Shouldn’t we just take God at His word?

CAMPAIGN BLITZ

by Bill Kochman

09-29-2024

Get ready for a one-month blitz,
It’s a game where nobody quits.
Yes, on the left and on the right,
Just one bloody campaign fight.

Pull out the big guns & cast dirt,
So your opponent you can hurt.
Fill your ads with some huge lies,
So the other guy voters despise.

Smear ’em good, give no chance,
People won’t give them a glance.
Spend lots of money to be heard,
Even if your claims are so absurd.

Bury him deep so he won’t survive,
You are left standing alone & alive.
Indeed, campaign season is here,
When they want to tickle your ear.

All year long they don’t care at all,
How it changes when arrives Fall.
Suddenly your problems they see,
Such hypocrites, don’t you agree?

All they desire is to get your vote,
About what they did they all gloat.
Making promises they won’t keep,
But are you really still so asleep?

MATRIX GAME

by Bill Kochman

09-29-2024

So many things in this world,
Will sometimes catch our eye,
While we think they are true,
They are actually just some lie.

Regardless of where we look,
It is simply always the same,
Another truth is proven false,
We’re caught in a matrix game.

While everyone lives their life,
Trying to always do what’s right,
There exist some powerful men,
Who strive to stay out of sight.

They scheme behind high walls,
Working towards their one goal,
We are just pawns on the board,
They intend to control our soul.

Manipulating financial markets,
On the world they have a grip,
Each piece is moved with care,
Rarely do they ever make a slip.

Like some well-greased machine,
The global balance is maintained,
Moving money from here to there,
So each crisis can be contained.

It is indeed a precarious process,
But those manipulators are adept,
They’ll only pressure us all so far,
So their control we will all accept.

But there is one wonderful world,
Where their power doesn’t reach,
It is the amazing Heavenly realm,
And the one that I always preach.

Unlike so many lies in this world,
Of this place we can all be sure,
If you wish to enter God’s holy city,
To Jesus open your heart’s door.

BROKEN CLOCK

by Bill Kochman

09-29-2024

Do you hear it? Tick-tock, tick-tock,
It is the sound of a prophetic clock.
Some say Christ’s time draws near,
But I don’t give those people an ear.

They don’t see their clock is broken,
Believing stuff God has not spoken.
So deceived by what Futurists claim,
Not knowing they’ve missed the aim.

Quite convinced it’s the end of years,
But someday soon they’ll shed tears.
Once they understand their mistake,
That their belief was just all so fake.

For decades it has been very strong,
As it has pulled many people along.
Giving them false hope for His return,
To this very day they in fact still yearn.

The real truth for them is hard to bear,
Tho I try to tell them they do not care.
They prefer instead to embrace the lie,
But the day comes when they will cry.

Why did they believe what they heard,
Instead of searching God’s holy Word?
The prophecies already came to term,
Of this belief I still remain rather firm.

It is my hope that you also will believe,
And this truth you’ll be able to receive.
Just cast off that Futurists’ deception,
Ask God for true Scriptural perception.

He will open your eyes, of this I’m sure,
Tell me now, what are you waiting for?

CONSPIRACY THEORISTS

by Bill Kochman

09-27-2024

You’ve gotta give it to conspiracy theorists,
Oh boy, those folks really know how to talk,
If you just naively take them at their word,
There’s a monster hiding behind every rock.

Government agents in cahoots with aliens,
Project blue beam, HAARP, & much more,
Once they get going, you better watch out,
Oh man, just run quick straight for the door.

But the big tragedy is when Christian folks,
Likewise decide to get in on that same act,
Spouting off loads of nonsensical rubbish,
And yet never quoting a single Biblical fact.

God called you to be a witness of His Word,
Yet you propagate silly deceptions instead,
Look, I really do not mean to offend anyone,
But actually, you let Satan get in your head.

Now if your goal is to be a light in the world,
Then you need to give people Gospel truth,
Please forget about all that conspiracy junk,
What they require is genuine Biblical proof.

For it’s indeed the Salvation message alone,
That will bring all the lost sheep to the light,
And so one day when you stand before God,
He will lovingly tell you that you did it right.

THE TIME IS LATE

by Bill Kochman

09-25-2024

Some people say that the physical,
Is a reflection of the spiritual realm,
So when I look hard at you America,
It’s quite obvious who is at the helm.

So much evil is present everywhere,
Yes, it is spread all across this land,
You’d have to be so blind not to see,
Satan has certainly played his hand.

Wickedness is totally out of control,
Shameless sinners spit in God’s face,
But one day His judgments will come,
They will bow their heads in disgrace.

What happened to you dear America,
So long ago you walked in God’s light,
But now like some wayward drunkard,
You just wander aimlessly in the night.

The time is now to repent of your sins,
For God’s patience will not last forever,
No, don’t even think that you’ll be safe,
When He drops His chastisement lever.

You cannot claim that you didn’t know,
His people have warned you for years,
As they pray for the soul of this nation,
Some have even been reduced to tears.

So the time has come, you must decide,
Declare plainly what you intend to do,
Will you bow the knee in true humility,
Or be chastised by the God you knew?

Yeah, I realize that the election has not occurred yet. But you know, I just thought it would be smart to get ahead of the curve & start offering these out-of-country tickets before the mad rush begins to occur.

So, for a limited time only, for all you celebs and other people who are planning to leave the country if your candidate doesn’t win, I’m offering these tickets at only half price. Yes, you heard me right! Half price! Any takers?

MISS SHIFTY

by Bill Kochman

09-24-2024

Well just look at that ole Miss Shifty,
Her responses are so much like air,
It appears like she said something,
But there’s just no substance there.

She is more dodging than a Dodger,
As she skirts the questions asked,
Ah, come on now, Miss Candidate,
Is answering such a difficult task?

Your constituents deserve answers,
Not the silly word salads you toss,
But if you just refuse to get serious,
It could well be your election loss.

So go ahead, keep playing games,
Make all the salads that you like,
But don’t dare whine and complain,
When voters tell you to take a hike.

FAIR SHAKE?

by Bill Kochman

09-23-2024

Now if you’re hoping to get a fair shake,
Forget MSM, do not make that mistake.
All liars and cheaters, those people be,
Both sides of a story they cannot see.

They spin the truth to their own desire,
Tongues full of so much poisonous fire.
Playing their game of wicked deception,
They try to alter our reality perception.

The “facts” are whatever they so claim,
Those manipulators have zero shame.
They aim to rake you through the coals,
Even tho their story is just full of holes.

They dig in claws to make you bleed,
So be smart & to my words take heed.
But if they entice you run the other way,
And simply reject everything they say.

Don’t you dare ever take their vile bait,
If you ignore my words, it’ll be too late.

LIZARD LADY

by Bill Kochman

09-23-2024

She has got a fake smile & her fake talk,
That lady should go and take a long walk.
I listened to her speak for a minute or two,
Oh man, that is all I was really able to do.

Now, yes, she seemed to be saying a lot,
But in the end it was simply all empty rot.
I mean just no substance that I could see,
Oh Lord, please don’t let her president be.

Supporting evil with such a crooked smile,
Trying to make it seem good all the while.
I didn’t detect in her a single sincere bone,
Though she tried to deceive with her tone.

Her vision for America is frightful indeed,
That woman wants to sow a wicked seed.
The agenda she pushes is an ungodly pile,
She promotes sinful things that are so vile.

So if you’re smart, don’t give her your vote,
Just send her packing on some slow boat.

Stop This Nonsense!

Posted on September 22, 2024 by Bill Kochman

I’m sorry, but refusing to engage in an online game where people challenge you to publicly announce your faith in Jesus is NOT denying the Lord, and to subtly suggest otherwise, as some of these posters do, is very wrong.

I find these kinds of games silly and shameful. This is NOT how we are supposed to share our faith.

This is as bad as the “type amen” posts, the “touch this photo” text messages, and the “pass this on to ten friends to get a blessing” text messages nonsense.

These kinds of posts make our faith appear silly, childish, and even superstitious.

Please desist in doing this. This is NOT what the Bible means when it says to exhort each other in the faith.

Thank you . . . and grow up!

NETWORK NETIQUETTE

by Bill Kochman

09-21-2024

To improve your social network fate,
You should always try to reciprocate.
If your friend comments on your post,
Do you also respond as a good host?

Do not ignore them or just be a snob,
Being nice is actually part of your job.
Adding your like or a comment will do,
It shows your friend that you care too.

But if you desire to go that extra mile,
Go visit their timeline for a little while.
Add likes & comments where you can,
They’ll then say “Wow, you’re the man!”

It is really about courtesy & being nice,
Which is lacking if you want my advice.
So many online folks are just plain rude,
As a Christian, don’t be like them, dude.

It is true that sometimes it can be hard,
But it always pays to go that extra yard.
If someone’s mean, then just back away,
No obligation to hear whatever they say.

Sometimes you just don’t have a choice,
Who wants to listen to the devil’s voice?
So these are suggestions to think about,
I hope some of them will help you out.

TRUST ONLY IN JESUS

by Bill Kochman

09-19-2024

If there is one thing you need to know,
It is that law is law and grace is grace,
Yet it is so extremely sad to see now,
How in our day things are out of place.

Just like those Jewish legalists of old,
Who kept people under a heavy yoke,
Some Christians just don’t understand,
What Jesus & the Apostles truly spoke.

Oh, how they love to wield God’s Word,
As though it is just a terrible cutting axe,
Attacking you if you disagree with them,
While they ignore some Scriptural facts.

Now if we’re truly saved by God’s grace,
And not by the works of the Mosaic Law,
Then surely it would seem quite evident,
In their theology there is a serious flaw.

Yes, we remain bound by the moral laws,
Summed up in the commandment of love,
But regarding all of that ceremonial stuff,
How the legalists all try to push & shove.

Either Christ’s blood is sufficient enough,
To fully pay for the gift of one’s Salvation,
Or we are stuck with obeying the full law,
Which leaves us an impossible situation.

For as the old Apostle James once wrote,
Breaking one law is just like breaking all,
Meaning we would be guilty before God,
And eternal death would be our final call.

Thus in the law don’t dare put your trust,
Place your faith in Jesus Christ instead,
For He will surely raise you to eternal life,
Even tho you have lain in the grave dead.

JUST GET ALONG

by Bill Kochman

09-19-2024

Well, you insist that the Earth is flat,
Some other dude claims it’s square,
Personally I think that it is a sphere,
But quite honestly I don’t really care.

Now before you become so alarmed,
Here is the point I am trying to make,
Many Christians spend time arguing,
Over whether a thing is true or fake.

But topics like these have no bearing,
On whether a person is saved or not,
Our primary goal is to preach Jesus,
Yet sadly so many Christians forgot.

You waste your time on such issues,
Trying to prove who is right or wrong,
Will you stop playing Satan’s fiddle,
And simply learn how to get along?

SERIOUS, NOT SO SERIOUS

by Bill Kochman

09-19-2024

Some say I’m a serious person,
And indeed it is true that I am,
But I’ve got a sense of humor,
And can also be quite the ham.

But the trick is knowing when,
To be funny or to hold it back,
Yes, I have got it under control,
No need for a hysteria attack.

When I am serious I’m serious,
And then when I’m not I’m not,
I strive to maintain a balance,
Yes, I give it everything I’ve got.

Now maybe you are wondering,
If I want to appear funny now,
I shall leave it for you to decide,
Out of this poem I take my bow.
