the axe
jesu
Matthew 12:34-35 (ESV)
“You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil?
For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil.”
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” ).
I carry the axe.
You are no longer welcome here.
The axe is mine to defend
my home, my safety, my path.
I will clear the forest.
The snakes,
the serpents and the vipers
will be cleared from the path.
The sun shall shine, devilishly. It will purify this crucible. It will purify you. It will purify your soul.
The sun shall shine, devilishly. The heat will be unbearable. But you shall be thrown into the fire.
The fire will consume your essence. The fire will make you whole.
But you shall be thrown into the fire.
The fire will consume you.
The fire will consume your values.
The fire will consume your soul
and set it free again.
You are no longer welcome here.
