FAITH FIGHT

by Bill Kochman

10-04-2018

We all have our moments when we doubt,
We question what our life is all about.
Even as Christians we at times despair,
Our prayer unanswered, is God up there?

As we grow older, our beliefs may wane,
Has our faith just been all in vain?
Not a miracle seen, no signs anywhere,
The world in a mess, doesn’t God care?

It can be so hard to trust in God above,
And keep on believing in His great love.
In our weakness we want proof He’s real,
But for His reasons, God remains still.

The Prophets gave signs, Apostles too,
And that is how folks of old all knew.
But today God works in a different way,
Demanding we have faith, day by day.

Trusting in His Word, we must believe,
Only this way, Salvation we’ll receive.
So even though at times it may be hard,
Keep on fighting till that final yard.

Resist your doubts, keep pressing in,
And by God’s Grace you will surely win.

FAIRY TALES

by Bill Kochman

05-11-2014

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall,
Cinderella went to the ball.
One Jack was nimble, one fell down,
Wicked witch melted into the ground.

Sleeping Beauty pricked her finger,
Snow White with dwarves did linger.
As for Beauty, she loved the Beast,
Munchkins feared, Witch of the East.

Rip Van Winkle, long time did sleep,
Rapunzel’s hair, she did not keep.
But all these tales are so absurd,
Should we not teach kids the Word?

FAILURE

by Bill Kochman

02-21-2018

They did not see it coming,
They said there were no signs,
They agreed the kid was okay,
Must have been wearing blinds.

How could this possibly happen,
Seventeen more just mowed down,
That kid walked in unimpeded,
And fired round after round.

The system is obviously broken,
It has failed again and again,
When will these killings stop,
Please tell me when oh when?

FACEBOOK TACTICS

by Bill Kochman

12-27-2016

They say “Type ‘Amen!’ if you …”,
But that’s not how the Gospel I preach,
You don’t need to resort to gimmicks,
If the lost you are trying to reach.

Just be faithful to share God’s Word,
Folks may comment or your post like,
But please don’t rely on trickery,
So your page will experience a spike.

It is indeed really quite inspiring,
To receive some feedback now and then,
But if you’re leaning on such tactics,
You need to rethink your strategy again.

FACEBOOK RELIGION

by Bill Kochman

12-19-2016

Don’t you just love Facebook religion?
It’s our new faith some Christians say,
You can get piles of money & blessings,
Just keep typing “Amen!” the whole day.

If you want an extra special blessing,
Just pass all those chain letters along,
I mean, oh gosh, come on now, friends,
Those misguided folks cannot be wrong!

Sorry, but no thanks, you silly people,
But that’s not how the Gospel we share,
That religion you preach is deception,
From the Prince of the Power of the air.

FACEBOOK RANT

by Bill Kochman

03-21-2019

I’m tired of the political crap,
Facebook loves to throw my way,
I’m tired of sick sexual memes,
Which they claim are quite okay.

I’m tired of their discrimination,
They squash things I want to say,
I’m tired of all their pressure,
To be seen they say I have to pay.

I’m tired of all the work I do,
It rarely sees the light of day
I’m tired of all their algorithms,
No wonder many don’t want to stay.

I’m tired of their constant lies,
Their sense of fairness is absurd,
I’m tired of their liberal views,
They stink even worse than a turd.

I’m tired of just being so tired,
Facebook used to be a lot more fun,
I’m tired of few likes & comments,
One day I’ll probably just run.

FACEBOOK NONSENSE

by Bill Kochman

12-19-2016

I visited my friend’s timeline,
There was an interesting post,
It said that if I typed “Amen!”,
God would love me the very most.

I went to yet another timeline,
Where again I was basically told,
That if I just shared that image,
It proves I am a Christian bold.

Why oh why, dear foolish people,
Do you treat our faith this way?
That is not how God even operates,
That behavior is shameful, I say.

FACEBOOK CHAIN LETTERS

by Bill Kochman

12-18-2016

I went to my Facebook page,
Wanted to see what was new,
A message was in my in-box,
A blessing waits for you!

Just touch this cute photo,
Then send it to 10 friends,
If you do it very quickly,
It’s a gift that never ends.

Oh such foolish Facebookers,
How can you all be so naive,
There are trolls and hackers,
Out there waiting to deceive.

EXIT WITHOUT PEACE

by Bill Kochman

01-07-2017

It’s your right to kill yourself,
If that’s what you want to do,
But before you take another puff,
You need to think this thing thru.

Years ago I once had a cousin,
And “once” is the key word to see,
He smoked and smoked for decades,
Until one day he just ceased to be.

But, you see, it was not so easy,
He did not peacefully go one day.
That man died suffering in agony,
As lung cancer ate his lungs away.

EXAMINE YOURSELF

by Bill Kochman

01-08-2017

It seems that in our modern day,
People have really put up a guard,
So trying to give them the truth,
Can oft times be extremely hard.

But there’s also one big problem,
Which we cannot lay at their feet,
It’s when we act so hypocritically,
And God’s standard we fail to meet.

It’s unfair to blame nonbelievers,
When our own faith we do not live,
We need to stop pointing fingers,
And ourselves one good look give.

EXAMINE THOSE SEEDS

by Bill Kochman

01-11-2017

Now it is very common knowledge,
What we plant is what will grow,
But stated in a more Biblical way,
We will reap exactly what we sow.

So if we sow love and friendship.
Hopefully we will reap the same,
But if we sow hatred and violence,
Well, then we will take the blame.

Thus I advise you to be careful,
Examine the seeds that you plant,
For someday it will all come back,
As someone’s love or terrible rant.

EVIL WISDOM

by Bill Kochman

12-12-2016

Not all knowledge is good,
Let’s make this point clear,
Something isn’t always true,
When it passes by your ear.

Great deception now abounds,
Some things meant to deceive,
Truth perverted and distorted,
As all their lies they weave.

Many are their speculations,
Strange theories they tell,
This wisdom is not of God,
It was given birth in Hell.

EVIL PUPPETEER

by Bill Kochman

09-16-2014

Beware of the evil puppeteer,
That fiend grins from ear to ear,
He manipulates the lives of men.
We are simply tools in his sight,
He leads us to ever darker night,
And wants to trap us in his den.

The whole world is his big stage,
He plays for keeps in this age,
He strikes when we know not when.
So watch out for his wicked ploys,
And don’t become one of his toys,
Resist him if he tempts you again.

EVEN IF THE DEVIL

by Bill Kochman

01-06-2017

Once there was an old man,
Who always praised the Lord,
But he had a mean neighbor,
Filled with Satan’s horde.

Oh he hated that Christian,
Wanted to turn him blue,
So he thought and wondered,
Exactly what he should do.

He heard that Christian say,
“Oh God I have no more bread,
If You don’t provide soon,
I may wind up very dead”.

The wicked neighbor grinned,
As he formed his evil plan,
In a window he threw bread,
Then off he so quickly ran.

That loaf hit the Christian,
Right on his balding head,
He thanked God for providing,
And hearing what he’d said.

Then boasted that neighbor,
“It was I who had you fed,
Your God did not help you”,
As his face turned very red.

“Oh Lord, said the Christian,
Yet I must praise You still,
For I know that You provided,
Even if Satan did Your will.

EVE

by Bill Kochman

11-16-2017

God’s love alone is enough,
Some Christians like to say,
But they all seem to forget,
What God did one special day.

Though he lived in the Garden,
And had many an animal friend,
The simple truth is just this,
Alone the Garden Adam did tend.

Seeing Adam’s sadness, God said,
It’s not good for him to be alone,
And thus, as a token of His love,
He made Eve from Adam’s bone.

ETERNAL WITNESSES

by Bill Kochman

01-02-2017

Since the very dawn of Creation,
They praise God with joy and mirth,
Witnesses to all that He has done,
When He made heavens and the Earth.

When Joshua took the city of Jericho,
The Angel stood there by his side,
When Samson’s birth was announced,
From an Angel Manoah couldn’t hide.

When Daniel prayed for the answers,
Angels came and revealed a mystery,
When baby Jesus was so threatened,
A great Angel warned Joseph to flee.

ETERNAL KINGDOM

by Bill Kochman

01-07-2017

The kingdoms of men come and go,
They crumble and decay into dust,
All his towers of glass and metal,
Will eventually give way to rust.

But there exists a great Kingdom,
That stands beautiful and eternal,
It wages war against the darkness,
And all things evil and infernal.

It’s to that place that you can go,
If you become a Child of the Light,
For in that Kingdom there’s a city,
Wherein there is never any night.

ETERNAL FRIENDSHIP

by Bill Kochman

01-05-2017

Not ev’ry lump of coal is a diamond,
Not ev’ry oyster has a great pearl,
Not ev’ry horse will win the race,
Not ev’ry boy will marry that girl.

Likewise are all true friendships,
They’re very rare occurrences indeed,
So if one should ever come along,
You’d do well to nourish that seed.

But there is a greater friendship,
One that will last for eternity,
Jesus Himself made it all possible,
When He chose to die for you and me.

ESCAPE THE APE

by Bill Kochman

12-01-2016

When I went to school this week,
Teacher had crazy things to say,
Said humans descended from apes,
Weren’t created on God’s 6th day.

I found this notion so confusing,
So I chose to take another look,
And thumbed through the pictures,
That I found in my science book.

They were really quite ridiculous,
Perhaps they were meant to amuse,
But you will have to forgive me,
Because I reject your ungodly views.

EAT WHAT YOU WANT

by Bill Kochman

01-14-2019

You can eat what you want,
It is really fine by me,
Just know I do not care,
For your stiff legality.

What goes in is not a sin,
As the Lord clearly said,
Dietary laws save us not,
To such things we are dead.

I like meat, but you don’t,
Okay, it’s no need to sweat,
What’s important most of all,
Is that Jesus paid our debt.

So tho we all eat differently,
I hope we can still agree,
Love is still the Royal Law,
And begins with civility.
