Titles

You may title yourself “Christian” and go to church “A,” church “B,” or not go to church. You may title yourself “Christian” and believe “new age” weirdology or believe in ritualism’s charms. You may title yourself “Christian” and have worldly habits and “life-style” as wicked as your neo-pagan neighbors. Remember though, God’s in charge of heavenly mansion Titles. You can’t ignore the teachings of His Instruction Manuel (the Bible) and expect Him to give you a Title to a mansion in the skies.

Poke – another word for sack

POKE ^[1]

Flowers, poetry; words that really spoke.

I paid the cost

But it got lost

So thought I’d just send the poke.

FYC “For Your Consideration”

Not for response (you’re welcome to) but that we think on things eternal.

The following (it seems) will need corrective measures in heaven. For lack of a better term I’m saying there’ll be changes in “personhood.” I haven’t the slightest doubt God can “arrange us” so we’ll be able to handle these: 

Mr. “A” makes heaven: his wife does not.   Mrs. “B” makes heaven: her husband does not.

Mr. & Mrs. “C” go to heaven: one or more child is lost.   Children from family “D” go to heaven: dad and/or mom are lost.

Friend “E” enters heaven: his/her life-long and best acquaintance never comes.
