Effort is Honored

I never had a mullet.
Never had long hair.
No beard covering my gullet.
No hickies under there!

I never smoked dope.
Never cracked cocaine.
Not ever at the end of my rope,
to do those things insane!

I never wore my pants down.
Never had my collar up.
Never dressed to make them frown.
Never liked  my dander up!

I never tattooed my body.
Never pierced a hole in my ear.
Never dressed in clothes gaudy,
Not even got drunk on beer!

I never cussed at the law.
Never appeared in court.
I always had a ball,
playing army in my fort!

I never was androgenous.
Never dressed a fool.
My love was never homogenous,
that's really not so cool!

Why was it I did things never?
Never did I want to displease.
It was to please my Savior!
That I fought the sin disease!

We fight, yet still we lose.
It's the effort which counts.
Sobriety for me, not the booze.
Drinking water from Christ's fount!







Belief: Light and Darkness

We all believe in something because we are a product of our surroundings. "Why are we here?" is a question we all ponder! Likewise, we all have an idea about what our senses take in. What's more, there is a sixth sense of "existence" which people have because we believe "There has to be more to existence than our short lives here!" We can't imagine time going on without us being a part of it. That's deterministic and depressing.
Belief is "a feeling of being sure that someone or something exists or that something is true, a feeling that something is good, right, or valuable, a feeling of trust in the worth or ability of someone" (Meriam-Webster Dictionary).
There are several aspects to "belief":

  •  truth
  • goodness
  • trust
It appears then that if one is to "believe in ________", (you fill in your god's name) that the person trust that it is truth and goodness on which they depend! After all, anyone who would intentionally follow deception and evil can't trust it, because "evil" has no  "trust" component. "Evil" and "trust" are dichotomies! If a person has trust in what's untrue and evil, then what they believe in is false and they are living a lie! In the context of Christianity, which is a person's belief in Jesus Christ, there is a requirement:
Romans 10:9 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

  • Sincere belief (heartfelt without doubt) that Jesus was resurrected and still lives!
  •  The sharing of your sincere belief (which convinces others of your sincerity to the extent that you want others to share your belief and the assurance of your hope).
As a result of your belief (trust in the goodness and truth of Jesus) then "thou shalt be saved"! There are two "works" you must do to be saved: believe and share. If you do neither, then you're not saved! The keyword in the definition of belief is "trust". Scripture tells us that even the demons believe.(James 2:19). Demons believe in the first two components of the definition: truth and goodness of Jesus. However, they hate his truth and goodness! What they fail to do is "trust in Jesus"! If we trust in him we shall share what we trust. That's "confess with out mouth". 

When I became a Christian, I believed, but never confessed. I didn't want my friends to ridicule me! I put my personal comfort over the eternal hope of my friends! What's wrong with that? I was still my own god and never presented myself as a "living sacrifice"!
Romans 12:1 "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."
When I was "born again" I was to bury the old creature and become a new creation. That is to be my "living sacrifice" and is the reasonable thing Christians must do! By telling others about Jesus (confessing my belief), that is trading my pride for the eternal life of others. One of the greatest sins a Christian can do is one of omission; failure to tell others about their hope!

Baptism is part of the "confess with thy mouth" part, the belief you claim. It's imperative that before baptism, a Christian testify to their belief in Jesus Christ. The hard part of that confession is to really trust in him. Otherwise, a person is merely a wet sinner! If a demon who believes in Jesus is immersed, without trust, he is still a demon!

John the Baptist confessed Jesus Christ. He told us how to believe:


John 1:6 "There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same (John) came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him (Jesus) might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light (Jesus)."
John confessed Jesus and was beheaded for it! He became a martyr for Jesus. He was baptized by the blood! He was the ultimate "living sacrifice" because he gave up his physical life because of  his belief!

What did John believe? That he was to "bear witness to the Light". "Light" is the removal of "darkness". Theologically, "darkness" is truth concealed. You see, part of his belief, was to believe so strongly that he must tell others about his own faith! Faith in what? Truth! That Jesus is truth which is described symbolically as "light". However, it's capitalized because that's important: "Light"!
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
This "belief" is imperative! Jesus IS the Light. His ministry was to take mankind out of darkness and proclaim truth to the world. The gospels are all about "the light" which he came to proclaim!

There are, according to other religions, many paths to heaven. Jesus says that he is "THE way", and adds to that: "no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." That statement closes all other paths. It shuts down "the self", other gods, Satan, and any "ism" with Utopian claims! Coming to the Father is entering the kingdom of God. It's when Christians, through faith (living their belief), become citizens under God. In God's Kingdom there is life... eternal life to be exact!

"Belief" is crucial to ever have eternal life! In life we all have beliefs of some sort. Some believe that existence just happened! "Chance" is their God.  That belief is not "the way".

Sometimes people have false beliefs. Evolution is the most obvious. Since our awareness of truth is limited sometimes we err about "what is true". My contention is that we must always err on the side of "security" and "goodness". For instance, it's more "safe" to be a Christian than it is an atheist because atheism is without a reward and Christianity has an eternal promise. It's nicer to believe in "goodness" because "goodness" includes love. As a Christian "hate" has no part in our belief system, but with no God, we rely merely on our own "self". Atheists believe they have no god. Indeed their god is their self!

In our daily activities, belief comes into play. People have ideas about the character of others. They base those beliefs on their senses; what they see and hear mainly. However, following one's senses leads to darkness. I always say "Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see!" because Satan uses our senses to deceive us.

It's unfair to believe, for instance, that a person did a wrong, based on circumstantial information  from the senses. In fact people create myths because they fill in the blanks and add to what they saw, heard and smelled. The myth they create is sincere and real enough to them to become truth (sic) in their own heart. However, what they falsely believe is darkness and is damaging to others. That's not how people demonstrate love for one another. People need to err on the side of truth. We need to ask things as "Am I sure or is what I saw or heard a mere perception?" "Was what I believe I saw or heard scatomas?"  "Will 'good' come out of this or will 'bad' prevail?" It's important to understand that darkness and false perceptions are of the devil, not of God!
Mark 9:23 "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth."
If we believe strongly in a person or a position, then it's possible that what they say or stand for is true. For safety's sake, we need to be generous in trusting others!

Love Circle

In the beginning man was to love God. It soon became apparent that man loved God, but God had competition. After sin entered into the world, man's focus was on the "self":
Genesis 2:5 "For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."
With sin came self-worship. Man's "other gods" were each person's existence. It wasn't the idols of stone of whom God was jealous. It was man's desire for self-satisfaction. Rather than magnifying God, men and women prioritized the pleasure of the "self". After all, that's what the forbidden fruit was all about; pleasure!

In the New Testament the god of "Self" is called the flesh.
1 Peter 4:2 "That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God."
There are two "gods" indicated here: the flesh and God. We either live a life of lusting after the flesh or doing the will of God! That's God and the other "god": JHWH and Self, since the self consists of the flesh and those things which pleasure it. What are the things men do the appease their god of Self?
Galatians 5:19 "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies..."
Anything contrary to God's will is seeking to elevate the Self over God. We may still seek to do God's will, but the lusts of the flesh to appease the Self are so strong that we worship another god besides God. We don't abandon our bride, the Self merely fornicates against God!
 Matthew 26:41 "Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
There exists in our make-up a struggle constantly going on. Even if we worship God, we are pulled toward satisfying the other god; the Self, by appeasing it with things of the flesh. Because of original sin, everyone has many times chose to appease their god over God by being in the flesh. Even Christians are tempted by Satan to bow down to their own desires. We all have weaknesses, a crack in the armor, which Satan seems to find out readily.

To defeat the God of Self requires love. It's a given that everyone loves themselves. We were created by God to be so:
Ephesians 5:29a "For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it..."
Because we love ourself, the Self is the one of three in the "circle of love" which is shown in Figure #1:

Figure #1-Love Circle
I showed a king as "the Self" because we treat ourselves as if we're king! (This particular picture is of King Nebuchadnazzer).  Rather than God being our king, we desire to be like him and establish our own kingdom. It's the kingdom of The Flesh rather than the kingdom of God.  As a subject of The Flesh we are all pulled to satisfy The Flesh. Hence, we worship our Self!

Why do we worship our Self other than to satisfy The Flesh? It's because Satan goes to and fro encouraging each one of us to do what's right in our own eyes. Satan even tempted Jesus! Jesus defeated Satan. However, out god is not omnipotent nor omniscient. We can be defeated! Satan bears down on Christians even harder because that undermines God the most! What we do when we live a life in The Flesh is trade our soul for the "goods" Satan has to offer: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,  Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, etc. All men sin and fall short of God's standards. The Self fails and so do the billions of other gods of Self. Many times our own Self worships someone else's "Self" in lieu of God. Satan wants all of us to worship anything else other than the One True God and when we do, Satan has met his own criteria and is happy just because God is sad!

Let's look again at the "Love Circle". This is what Jesus said about love:
Matthew 22:36 "Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."
You see there are three "loves" mentioned: ourselves, others and God! Since, the love of Self is driven by lust, the love of Self is Eros type of love, being sexual in nature. The foreskin of the Jew was cut off in patriarchal times as a sacrifice of "the flesh". With the advent of Christ, with being born again a new creature, "the flesh" which we sacrifice to God is our all!  We become a new creature in Christ. Hence, Christians present their god as a living sacrifice and cleanse their bodies and minds from their Self-god, The Flesh.

The love circle shows "others". God commands us to love others. By doing so we show him love because since God is supernatural we must show him love in a natural way. We care for the souls of others! That's philio, or brotherly love! That's the "works" which is a result of our sacrificing our own flesh. We then care more for others, and not their flesh, but their souls! This love is called "the one like unto it", referring to the Greatest Commandment.  Those twain are really one command, because "love of others" is how we love God!

Finally, in the Love Circle we see God, represented by his incarnate personality, Jesus. When Jesus said "love God" he's referring to himself! That type of love is called in the Greek agape. It's divine love!  It's demonstrated to God whom we can't see by loving others who we can see. Of course Christians have purportedly sacrificed the Self, but they do so to hang on to their own soul. Face it! The very fact that we want to live eternally is because we love our self! That's the one satisfaction which God wants us to pleasure our "self" with, not the flesh, but the Spirit! (Note than "s" refers to us, but "S" refers to our god when used in the word (S/s)elf).

These are the three types of love! Satan goes to and fro and endeavors to disrupt any aspect of the love shown in Figure #1! He wants us to sin against God by committing sins against God, against others and even against the self!
1 Corinthians 6:18 "Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body."
Now you have it! Fornication is against one's own self, the last seven commandments are sins against others and the first three commandments are sins against God, which effectually are all sins are! By doing acts forbidden by God Satan entices us to break that Love Circle which is pure and holy.

This sin of "fornication"! It's so important because when we flirt with "other gods" we are fornicating with our own "god of Self". Fornication is pleasuring the Self and is the worship of "other gods". How we struggle against our Self even when Satan is busy elsewhere!

A Tame Tongue; About the Election

The tongue is man's built in speaker system. It takes signals from the brain and enunciates those signals for enjoyment, criticism and the sharing of information.   The tongue is blamed for the wrongs of the person to whom it's an appendage:
James 3:8 "But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison."
Although the tongue is blamed for bad things, good things can slip right off that appendage:
James 3:9 "Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be."
Although the tongue says bad things and it's the same tool men use to bless God, it's not the tongue which is at fault. It's the person's heart! God can tame the tongue when no man can! The heart isn't merely the organ which pumps lifeblood. It's a term used to describe a person's character, spiritual condition, and emotions. The tongue is a reflection of what the consistency of the person is! Are people made of vomit and filth or are they made of honey, spices and sunshine? You can tell much about a person by the "color" of the tongue. The color is not pink, white or dark, of which I'm speaking, but the words which flow from it!
James 3:13 "Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom."
Wow! This is potent! This describes a "tame tongue"! First off a person with a "good" tongue has good conversations. Conversations consist of four things: listening, evaluating (silence),  and concluding (silence) and speaking. Half of these activities are in silence... or so they should be! In effect any speaker should only be heard 25% of the time in a conversation. (I've seen women talking when there were no silence on the part of either!)

Note: That "concluding" should not be done while the person is still speaking because more is to come and a good listener requires attentiveness. Some people start forming their response instead of listening, which is good manners and a duty!

"Good conversations" are a product of wise men with knowledge. Knowledge is truth. It's not opinions. Wise men have opinions, but it's based on knowledge. Wisdom is having a base on which to evaluate knowledge (facts) and apply it in a beneficial way to real life.  "Good conversations" aren't consumed with destructive comments, insults, undue criticism, cursing  nor name calling! In fact when a person resorts to cursing or name-calling, they've spilled the beans. They haven't a rebuttal and the calm person wins the debate, providing the calm person doesn't use the same tactics!

A "good conversation" can have elements which elevate what one does. The best place for doing that is in a job interview! It's then okay to state one's accomplishments, not to brag, but to describe one's own honest value to a potential employer. We hear candidates for office talk about what they've accomplished in most speeches and debates. That's okay! It is a job interview! However, it must be done with meekness which comes with wisdom. A wise man can brag on himself without being narcissistic. An example is Paul:
In 2 Corinthians 2:16 "I (Paul) say again, let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
Paul spoke brazenly of what he accomplished for the Lord! He boasted. He bragged! The balance of the chapter is about what he did for the love of the Lord: his boldness, he's the seed of Abraham, a minister of Christ, he is more than that; abundant labors, five times forty stripes (floggings), beaten with stones, shipwrecked, in the perils of waters and robbers, heathen, etc., in pain, hunger and thirst and nakedness,  and the fear of being apprehended by those in authority! Paul bragged! However, his boasting was not for self-aggrandizement, but for what he did for the Lord. He was speaking of his boldness for the Lord, not to elevate himself, but the worthiness of the Lord!

Paul wasn't applying for a job nor running for office. He was revealing his resume' in the work of the Lord. What he said was spoken with his tongue, but he was spilling his heart! He cared about he of whom he spoke and it was all about Jesus, not Paul. That's meekness!

Now let us digress: Compare Dr. Benjamin Carson and Donald Trump. They both have a brilliant resume' and it's time to boast. Their campaigning is their job interview. They must convince their future employers (us) that they are good employees. Both have told their story. They have told of their successes and how their wisdom will be applied to making things better for us. They are both sincere!

There are two differences which are obvious. Dr. Carson is meek and although he boasts, what he does is what's right in the Lord's eyes. You can tell that his desire is for the nation to be righteous and prosper (in that order) which is really the Abrahamic Covenant.  With Carson there is no animosity, name-calling, belittling nor arrogance. He states truth matter-of-factly and without distortion, like it or leave it! He truly is a knowledgeable, wise and meek person in spite of his success.

Trump is confident, knowledgeable, forceful and a born leader. However, his manner is the opposite of Carson's. He name-calls, provokes, boasts and is narcissistic. However, he does speak his mind and does little truth-twisting. Trump is not modest nor wise in his criticism. At some point what he has said will come back on him. I believe that he has good intentions for the betterment of the people as does Dr. Carson.

However, to get things done when elected, Trump will rely on the wisdom and knowledge of Trump, I believe. Carson will rely on God to lead him. He will put Abraham's Covenant into play again. Both are confident men. Both can be players who can accomplish. Who shall it be that Christians support? Without questioning anyone's faith, Carson is more righteous in his approach, while Trump is more a general in a war. This is war! He will make a good general.

Christians must evaluate, when the time comes, how they are to vote. Do you see how scripture can be used? Don't vote based on popularity, herd mentality, the media, appearances, smooth words, etc. Take it to God!

Yesterday is the Past

I still feel guilty for things I did "yesterday". "Wow! You sinned yesterday? But I thought you are a Christian." Not only that, I've been up about one-hour and I may have already sinned! That depends on what I did before I turned to my bible study. Did I look at Facebook first, or did I read scripture. Sins are things we fail to do as well as things we do!

Furthermore, "yesterday"  is more than the day before now. It also encompasses all the time previous to now. Yesterday is the past and it has passed!
Philippians 3:13b "...this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."
Paul was a huge sinner. He caused Christians to be murdered. How in the world could he forget that? I'm sure others taunted him with that since some apostle's even argued his qualifications for being an apostle. "This murderer?" However, just as Jesus forgave Paul, so did the apostles. Why? Because they were men after God's own heart and forgiveness is imperative to righteousness!

Psychologists teach that by examining the past a "break-through" is made. They look for things in the past, even sub-conscious or forgotten things, which may have driven the psychosis at hand. However, unlike philosophy, Christianity teaches Christians to forget the past and to "press forward"! Why shouldn't we as new Christians? We're new people!
 2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
Paul, when struck by the Holy Ghost, got a new lease on life! He no longer was the sin-filled Paul. He was clean as pure snow. All his sins were wiped away! No one should ever mention to Paul how evil he was before, for to do so would  be terror on his joy and affect his ministry.

When anyone accepts Christ, all past sins are forgiven. Some say that all sins are: past, present and future. That's not true. Jesus died for all our sins, but at the time of the new birth, only past sins are forgiven, and that is huge!
Romans 3:25 "Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God..."
If the new creation was for present and future sins as well, there would be no need for continual repentance because we know that even saved people sin. As people sin, it's imperative that sorrow be experienced to the extent that repentance is made to God. Christians feel guilty after sinning. Guilt is what brings on the sorrow for repentance. Guilt is not a symptom of a person with neurosis; it's a by-product of a Christian who listens to the Holy Spirit!

Paul sinned after he became a Christian. He doesn't say what he did, but he did things that he didn't want to do because of the flesh (Matthew 26:41). Did those around him think "Paul, you sinned! I just don't trust you anymore. You're a spiritual failure and you're no longer worthy to be my friend!" That's a heavy stone to throw, but some people, even Christians, heave heavy stones at their imperfect brothers.

What if Paul sinned "this morning", but preached faithfully "this afternoon"? Is he a hypocrite? Not if he was sorry and repented! Christians repent as sin happens. It doesn't take a special place or a special person to pray along. Repentance is available "right now" and seconds later, a forgiven person can be trusted! We are never to look at the past!
1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
After our pardon, we are righteous again. Satan can't use what was before for the now. By confession, Jesus is respected and Satan is minimized. Jesus smiles and Satan scowls! However, our neighbor may still be scowling right there with the devil. They have a heavy stone in hand to heave it at the person of whom their guiltiness may be alike.

I have an observation. Our own Christian brothers are less likely to forgive than those who are not saved because of their own self-righteousness. "Unsaved" people forgive because they sin freely and without enough guilt to turn away from it. "Saved" people fail to forgive because their standard for performance is their own behavior. For instance, I can judge harshly those who use drugs because I don't use drugs. Others may judge harshly those have been overt with their lust, while their own is in secret. The purpose is on "judging" doesn't mean that others are not impure, but that one standard is to be used. We don't compare others with ourselves, but reprove them with what God says using God's standards:
Matthew 7:1 "Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?"
None are without sin. The focus in this passage is not on "judging", but to judge fairly and not harshly. Clarification comes from the Book of Luke:
 Luke 6:37 "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:"
Herein, "judging" and "condemnation" are equated (i.e., we're not to judge harshly)! By not judging harshly, then we don't deserve to be judged harshly either!  However, the key word in this passage is on "forgive". If we have the intestinal fortitude to forgive others, then we too shall deserve forgiveness when we need it!

Christians seem to place the degree of sin of others more extreme than their own sins. "Your sin is greater than mine!" they think. However, the inability to forgive is the greater sin because forgiveness is a measurement of love, not only love for others, but to demonstrate love for God! How do I know that? Because scripture tells me so!
Matthew 22:37b "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Face it! Many of my Christian brothers would stone me for doing no worse than what they do!   They would throw stones at you as well. This is a sorrowful rut to be in. Our only option is to pray and forgive them unconditionally.

Interview from Hell: Osama bin Laden

Thank you for joining me tonight. I'm Bill O'Really of "Factor This". My talking points for tonight are on "The Probability of 72 Virgins in Heaven". In order to get to the crux of the reward for martyred Muslims, we'll travel to Hell... excuse me for not using Arabic, but we'll travel to Jahannaam to interview Osama bin Laden.

First off, the typical Muslim would ask "What in the hell are you traveling to Jahannaam for? Osama's in Jannah!"  (Jannah is Arabic for heaven). Any sane person would say "Don't bet your sweet bippy on that! Osama is as far from Jannah as Mecca is from Mars!"

However, before we begin our journey down into the fiery pit let's look at this Islamic hero for just as short spell.

Osama bin Laden, or in English, Osama, son of Laden.

"Osama" means "lion".

"Laden" means "loaded" or "encumbered".

Hence, Osama bin Laden is "Lion, son of Loaded". My guess is that Mr. Laden was pretty loaded from the poppy fields of Afghanistan if you look at his mind!

Have you ever noticed that American names are mostly just names, but in other countries, names mean things? For instance "Barack" is an African name meaning "blessed". (It's Mubarak in Arab). "Hussein" is Arabic for "good" or "handsome one", and "Obama" is Kenyan for "bend" or "lean". Hence our president is "Blessed Handsome, but Bent". That's how he was elected.

Osama bin Laden was responsible for terrorism throughout the world! Three-thousand people died in the Twin Towers attack in New York City. Who was to blame? Although, idiots say that Bush did it, Osama gets the credit! This one act alone pretty well explains why Osama is in Jahannaam, or Hell, according to us infidels!

Let me explain very quickly how this interview is to be. FAXNEWS has developed a cartridge, insulated from temperatures seven times hotter than fire, cooled inside (about 105 degrees), to be lowered down a shaft to the very center of the earth. This is the location of Jahannaam and is the fiery pit which is described in scripture:
Revelation 20:3 "And cast him (Satan) into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season."
The "bottomless pit" is hell. That's where Satan will be, but where Osama is now! He joins there his prophet Mohammad, the dreamer of the most insane religion ever conceived!  What's more, Osama reveres Mohammad on earth, but in Jahannaam Osama despises him. Why? Because the dupe Osama bought into the lies of Islam!

It's time now. Mr, Bill O'Really, will make my third trip down this hellish shaft to interview the most hated man this side of Hitler, having many of the same views, I must say.  Turn on the fan, lower the wench and let's go! This ride takes time. Bear with me a few minutes.....
.
.
.

Thanks, we are now arriving at the gates to hell. I see the River Styx in sight now. There's much river traffic today. I see many many Arabs on barges going to their eternal home. They have a crescent on their robes. I guess the grim reaper sorted them before their journey. We'll land at the communications room of the devil himself. There it is! I see MSNBC  on the podium. They strongly support Islam I guess. Satan steps out now I can see him!

He's not what we imagine. No red pitchfork and horns that I can see. He looks as handsome as Tom Cruze and dresses like James Bond or Vladimir Putin.  Quite a handsome fellow and can he sing! He's singing a parody now. Yes, it sounds like "Stairway to Heaven", but the lyrics are "Fell down the Stairs Instead of Heaven". Ah, yes. That's one of the seven gates to hell... the stairs! That devil sure sings well!  It appears from Ezekiel 28:13 that Satan was most likely God's head musician before he rebelled. That may explain why secular music is of his genre so often!

I just heard the swoosh of our stopping on the fire-proof pad. We don't want to interview while we're being stewed after all; pun intended. Let's give the lead to Mr. Lucifer first: Damien, what say you?

Lucifer: Ah, Bill. You know my first name. Only those who know me well dare call me Damien. How well do you know me, Bill?

Bill: This is NOT about me, Lucifer.  I know your tricks! I request an audience with one of your most famous "guests" if I may use that description?

Lucifer: Actually, we call them all "fools" here, Bill. We assign them a number and a name. Who you seek is Osama Fool 34576823. For short we refer to him here as "Islamic Fool Osama" or  "IFO". We love acronymns! They are so misleading!!!!

Bill: I demand that I speak with him. I just find it silly to be polite with you Mr. Lucifer.

Lucifer: Bill, I admire your belligerence and bravery, but you must demand in the name of Jesus whom I fear. I don't fear you at all!

Bill: Yes, in Jesus name, present him to me.

Lucifer: I must obey at that sound of that name for it is said "every knee shall bow".

Lucifer: (After a short time): Here he is Mr. O'Really. Here's Osama Fool 34576823 or as I said "IFO" for short.

Osama: Get me outta here O'Really. I didn't get my 72 virgins and it's hotter than Arabia down here!

Bill: My research team has found that according to Quran 44:54 which says that one man will wed many women. Further verses indicate that these women will have full breasts, indicating they are young virgins;  and that all the virgins will be satisfied with only one man. Paradise or Jannah, for them, will be a place of sensual sexual pleasure. Osama, I don't see any virgins here! All I can see are slutty looking women covered head to toe with ugly back dress. It must be Halloween here! What say you?

Osama: I was tricked! I was supposed to go to heaven because I killed many people for a ticket and hoped to be killed. Martyrs for Allah should get a "Go Straight to Jannah" ticket.

Bill: It seems that Islam is a little confused or so it seems, Osama... or do you prefer IFO?

Osama: Don't call me that, Bill! That's what the principalities call me because they think I'm so stupid because I believed the lie above and beyond everyone. The devil is "good"... at fooling people that is. The Temple of the Rock is supposed to be where Mohammad ascended to Jannah, but it appears that he was fooled too! He's right over there, in Jahannaam with the rest of us!

Osama: As far as confusion, you be the judge.  I am taunted by what the Christians told me: Matthew 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves." I guess that was Mohammed!

Bill: Osama, did you ever love Mohammad?

Osama: Islam knows no love, Bill. Islam is all about "control from the devil", although paradoxically it means "submission to God"!  The mantra chanted by liberals everywhere "Islam is a peaceful religion" is the greatest lie today. Mohammad never wanted Islam to be peaceful. He was just as I am! Mohammad was a terrorist on camelback!

Bill: Americans would call that intolerant, Osama.

Osama: Then let them come to hell for awhile and they will discover truth! There must be easier ways to find truth other than punishment for falling for deceit!

Bill: Christians seek truth from God's word, not this "other god" who claims the name "Allah". John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." I was taught that in catechism class, and now I think I believe it! You see Jesus is subordinate to Mohammad in your view. Rather than being God with us, for Muslims, he was just a prophet. Did you know that   he died on the cross for you too, Osama?

Osama: But I'm a Muslim. Why would he do that?

Bill: My research team gave me a possible answer: John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Osama, you were included in the "whosoever", but it was conditional! One must "believeth in him", but not as prophet Jesus, but as God Jesus! Your Allah was never Jesus, but Jesus is God!

Osama: But why should God have mercy on me? I hated Christian infidels!

Bill: Luke 23:34a "Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."

Bill: It appears that if you had listened to the knock on the door by Jesus, you wouldn't be here in hell... excuse me... Jahannaam.

Osama: Any chance of getting outta here, Bill? I'm beginning to understand.

Bill: My staff says it's too late. No one can be prayed out of hell. People must make a wise choice while they're alive.

Osama: Normally, Bill, we all burn intensely all the time here and everyone taunts us continually. For just a few minutes for this interview Lucifer allowed me to speak with you. He made me promise not to listen, but to convince you that you're wrong. Bill, I'm all about hate and terror and that's what I choose. I would never turn my back on Satan because things are bad enough as it is. Be off with you now!

Bill: I'm sorry that you were so evil. Good-bye... forever! I hope I never see that man again!

Lucifer: Bill, are you sure you won't? Ha ha ha ha!

Bill sees Osama singed with heat now, his brow dripping with melted skin. He hears the  Bayowolf bellowing from within his capsule. The banshee scream of one in extreme pain is paramount. Osama is alone now... in agony. His millions are of no avail. He begs his master Satan constantly for relief, but gets only devilish scorn. If only... if only... he thinks as he pines for just one drop of water!

Bill: Whew! Back on the surface now. I hope to never go there again, especially forever. That would be hell! The word of the day, folks, is "retardment"... when making a decision don't let falsehoods be a retardment! That's means "don't delay". The time is now!

We now will follow-up this one-time interview shortly on "Breaking" with Mygain Keeling. Her guests will be a bishop, an imam, and a preacher. They will tell jokes about the falsehood of hell and condemn people for being so intolerant. Stay tuned!
