No folks . . . I am NOT in Facebook Jail. This is just a humorous Facebook poem I wrote back in February of 2018. But, if you want to know my take on Facebook’s jailing policies, check out this link:
I hope they at least give you bread and water while you are in there! 🙂
“Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.” Matthew 5:25-26, KJV
“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18, KJV
“Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:25-27, KJV
“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14, KJV
“For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.” Hebrews 11:14-16, KJV
“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” John 14:2-3, KJV
“I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.” John 17:14-19, KJV
“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;” Ephesians 2:19, KJV
“And, behold, I come quickly: and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12, KJV
Oh we are such terrible creatures,
When it comes to loving our God,
We run to Him just when we need Him,
No doubt He finds this rather odd.
But God is not a convenience store,
He is the omnipotent King of Heaven,
We all need to love and respect Him,
Because He’s not just your 7-Eleven.
Yes, He is always open for business,
Our God never slumbers or sleeps,
And His service is simply top-notch,
His promises our Lord always keeps.
Giving Him ear just when we need Him,
Such sad behavior really will not do,
How would you feel if your loved one,
Gave the same exact treatment to you?
In the Bible, particularly in the Old Testament, when the Scriptures speak about the nations descended from Abraham, it is talking about the Twelve Patriarchs of the Twelve Tribes of Israel and their descendants. In other words, a tribe is a nation in a Biblical sense. Thus, the Twelve Tribes were Twelve Nations which comprised the whole nation of Israel.
We see the very same thing happening with Ishmael, who was Abraham’s son by his Egyptian handmaid, Hagar. Similar to Jacob, Ishmael had twelve sons who were twelve princes, who each ruled over their own nation — or tribe — of people. That is, their descendants.
At the same time, not to be confused, the word “nations” is also used in the Scriptures to signify non-Israelite nations who did not worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. They are also referred to as Gentiles, from the Hebrew “goy”, or plural “goyim”.
“And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and THOU SHALT BE A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; FOR A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS HAVE I MADE THEE. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I WILL MAKE NATIONS OF THEE, and KINGS SHALL COME OUT OF THEE . . . And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and SHE SHALL BE A MOTHER OF NATIONS; KINGS OF PEOPLE SHALL BE OF HER.” Genesis 17:1-6, 15-16, KJV
“And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; Seeing that Abraham SHALL SURELY BECOME A GREAT AND MIGHTY NATION, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?” Genesis 18:17-18, KJV
“And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; TWELVE PRINCES SHALL HE BEGET, and I WILL MAKE HIM A GREAT NATION . . . Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarahs handmaid, bare unto Abraham: And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah: These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; TWELVE PRINCES ACCORDING TO THEIR NATIONS.” Genesis 17:20, 25:12-16, KJV
“And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. And the LORD said unto her, TWO NATIONS ARE IN THY WOMB, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.” Genesis 25:21-23, KJV
“And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him. And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and he called his name Israel. And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; A NATION AND A COMPANY OF NATIONS SHALL BE OF THEE, AND KINGS SHALL COME OUT OF THY LOINS;” Genesis 35:9-11, KJV
“And when Joseph saw that his father [Jacob/Israel] laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father’s hand, to remove it from Ephraim’s head unto Manasseh’s head. And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head. And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and HIS SEED SHALL BECOME A MULTITUDE OF NATIONS.” Genesis 48:17-19, KJV
The world is full of so many sinners,
Someone should talk to those folks,
They’re all such losers, not winners.
I’m so glad I’m not like those blokes.
Oh what a self-righteous perspective,
To think you’re better than the rest,
Perhaps you need God’s corrective,
Would you even pass His moral test?
Please note that all are born in sin,
There’s none righteous upon the Earth,
But through Christ’s Blood we can win,
For through Him we receive our worth.
“For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:” Deuteronomy 10:17, KJV

“Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.” Job 36:26, KJV
“Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?” Psalm 77:13, KJV

There is no doubt that I am censored,
It does not matter where I even go,
The social networks got me marked,
And my posts they don’t like to show.
To the liberals it is just a mind game,
They play by their own crooked rules,
To silence all of our Christian voices,
They’ve got a whole box of evil tools.
Of course, one of their biggest ploys,
Is to say they believe in free speech,
Yet tho we post as much as we like,
Our memes are given very little reach.
Shadow banning is their favorite tactic,
It is subtle and makes them look clean,
Because while a person can post freely,
All their updates are hardly ever seen.
Thus networks censor and discriminate,
Against Christian voices no not a few,
And so the lost do not hear the Gospel,
I would not want to be in a mod’s shoe.
Someday they will be held accountable,
For so casting God’s truth to the ground,
And when they at last appear before Him,
He’ll say He does not want them around.
So get smart and stop all your nonsense,
Don’t censor, let God’s Word freely flow,
Because if you continue to resist Him,
In the end you won’t like where you go.
