Bill's Bible Basics Blog

Since the latter half of the 20th century, many Christians have tried to identify the biblical Antichrist. Some of the popular candidates have included: Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Emmanuel Macron, Jared Kushner, John Lennon, Lord Maitreya, Popes Francis & Leo, King Charles, Saddam Hussein and Qa’im Abdullah Hashem Aba Al Sadiq. But what if they are all wrong, and the Antichrist is really a figure from the distant past, and NOT a soon-coming global leader, as the doctrine of Futurism erroneously proposes?

CANNON FODDER

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

11-08-2023

Whether you’re America’s son or a daughter,
Well, sorry, but you’re still just cannon fodder.
Of course, they’ll make you promises galore,
Anything to convince you to fight their war.

They will talk about patriotism, you will see,
Tell you you’re helping to spread democracy.
Now just go kill the enemy and all will be well,
But those countries have all turned into hell.

Yes, look at nations where the USA invaded,
There is no peace and now America is hated.
Go right ahead, count off nations one by one,
Not any of them is now democratically run.

They all still squabble and they all still fight,
So why did we send all our American might?
Billions of dollars spent & weapons sent too,
One of these days they may use ‘em on you.

So when that sly recruiter offers you a chair,
Don’t be so stupid, man just get out of there!

UPON SOLID ROCK

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

11-28-2017

When you are at your most weakest,
And feel that you just can’t cope,
One thing you ought to remember,
With the Lord there is always hope.

No challenge is too big for Jesus,
His shoulders can bear any load,
He will lighten your grievous burden,
And smooth out the most rugged road.

He has been down that way before you,
And knows what dangers may lie ahead,
He will clear a path thru the darkness,
Where even Angels may fear to tread.

Yes, our Savior is just that wonderful,
He cares so much more than you think,
Even tho the tempest roars around you,
Not one foot will ever slip or sink.

He will lift you up out of the mire,
And set you firmly upon His solid rock,
His Angels will always guard over you,
So in His peace you can safely walk.
