Nineveh Did
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


 

          Nineveh Did

We say The Truth has set us free

Yet for the world, we yearn                           Lk.9:62

We still partake of what we see

Still full of lust we burn                                1Jn.2:15-17

 

We sing the song the devil sings

We dance to Satan’s tunes

Yet in one’s heart The King of kings

Sees only whitewashed ruins

 

If one won’t live the way we should

We’ll die for what we’ve done                        Dt.24:16

For God said Tyre and Sidon would

If they; had known His Son                            Mt.11:21-22

 

Jonah, sent to Nineveh town

God’s word, he had to give                             Jnh.1-2

Their sin and pride came tumbling down

And God allowed them live                            Jnh.3:6-10

 

If true repentance would awake

If man weren’t Satan’s whore

If we would learn from each mistake

We’d enter Heaven’s Door

 

But as it is, the world at large

Considers Christ, as strange                          Jn.1:5

Where Satan still has total charge

Yet no one wants to change                           Jn.8:44

 

Where cesspool minds are in decay

Where hypocrites pretend

So as it was in Noah’s day                           Mt 24:37-41

Satanic filth will end

 

No matter who The Father sent                     Lk.16:31

God’s Truth most never learn

Still few will live who yet repent                  Lk.13:3

The rest, will endless burn.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
