The Prescience Of God.

O ignorant man, why do you not understand or believe
Our Creator's prescience? That at Adam's beginning
God knew he would be disobedient in spirit and sin.

The Christ subjects only obedient souls to be spirit
'images' --towards Their likeness,
From Adam's first obedient offspring-- from within.

Then, since The Christ's generations, God planted in the
Hearts and minds of 144,000 --a holy covenanted 'seed'.
While allowing to multiply alongside,
A contemptuous, troublesome breed.

He foretold: His seven last 'angers',
To help save some rebellious souls who do not care.
The seventh, we await to be poured out 'upon the air',
When true justice within all will be laid bare.

Forewarned that His rule will cause rage among the nations,
Among worshippers of the [political] 'image of the beast',
The 'false prophet', and the spirit 'man of lawlessness':
All guilty of the blood of those 'least'.

But what will it be like for them in the coming days,
When they 'run from a lion only to meet up with a bear'?
Like all escapees from true justice, they will end up
Being punished by this destructive pair.
