This book was impressed on me by the Lord, to wright these messages in poetic form. Never did anything like this in my life.

This book covers multiple subjects which each of u

STOP trying to prove YOU'RE right AND START proving GOD is right - Eugene Abe
What’s Heaven Like?
Here’s a story about a little boy
He loved to go to Grandma’s and Grandpa’s house
The little boy was only six years old
And he loved his Grandpa so much
He felt grandpa always had the right answers
Any time he asked him a question
So he asked grandpa if he could answer his question
His response was I’ll try my best
The little boy asked him this question
How do we know, what heaven will be like
Pap, thought for a moment
Then asked the little boy to follow him
They lived in a very old house
Which didn’t have a basement in it
All it had was a crawl space
A little door opened to get inside
Pap gave the little boy a flashlight
Opened the door to the little crawl space
Told the little boy to crawl into it
And asked him, what it was he saw
The little boy crawled into that crawl space
And told Pap just what he saw
Pap I see all types of crawling creatures
And spider webs hanging all around
And Pap this place is so scary
I don’t want to stay here to long
For it’s not a pleasant place
Pap I’m coming out right now
The little boy crawled out from under the house
And his Pap spoke gently to him
That is what hell is going to be like
Only multiplied over and over again
But Pap I asked you, what heaven would be like
Pap smiled but I had to show you this first
For hell isn’t a place anyone would want to go
It’s so scary you don’t ever want to go there
The little boy looked up to his grandpa
I don’t ever want to go there
But Pap will you answer my question,
What is heaven going to be like?
The sun had just gone down
It was starting to get real dark
Pap took him to the middle of the yard
They laid down and he told the little boy to look up
Then Pap asked the little boy by his side
Son, what is it you now see
The little boy looked up and responded to him
He was excited as to what he saw
Pap I see the big round moon
That is shining so brightly tonight
It’s lighting the fields around me
Yes we can see very far
And Pap there seems to be millions of stars
Some stand out more than others
And Pap some of those stars up there
Seems to be winking at me
The sky, the fields, and all around me
Make me feel so good inside
Can we stay here the rest of the night?
This place just makes me feel good
Pap then spoke with a gentle voice
My son this is what heaven will be like
You will have a peace in your heart
An the beauty will be hard to explain
When each of us get to heaven
Then we will find Jesus there
Yes heaven will be so much better
Than anything you could comprehend on earth
The beauty you saw this very night
It’s just a small glimpse of what heaven will be
So my child, always walk with Jesus
As you live your days here on earth
Yes heaven will be so much more
Than what we saw this very night
So we never want to miss a beat
We must walk with the Lord every day
So son we need to go to bed,
Tomorrow we can enjoy so much more
For everything He’s provided for us
Is for each of us to enjoy
Grandson has your question been answered
Or have I failed to answer it well
The bible doesn’t say a lot about heaven
Yet being with Jesus will make it even better
The grandson responded rapidly
Oh Grandpa you did so well
I can always depend on you
To answer the questions I have
Pap responded back to him
Grandma and I won’t always be here
For one day the Lord will take us
To that heaven so beautiful and fair
Then you’ll have to keep telling others
What you’ve been taught and you have learned
So don’t fail the Lord in all that you do
Be found faithful each day that you live
Oh Pap I don’t want you to leave me
But I know there’s a time for each of us
So I’ll make sure that I’ll be found faithful
So we’ll all meet again in heaven

Salvation
Salvation is not a movement
Which man drummed, up
Salvation has been upon this earth
Ever since this world began
It comes to us in different ways
The first way through sacrifices
Yet it couldn’t fully take away our sins
Until Jesus became the perfect sacrifice
So many believe that salvation
Is not for us today
Or they think they can put it off
Till the end of their life
Many think you get salvation
Because mom and dad belong to the church
Or because you’re born in the USA
Neither one of those will work
Some believe you receive salvation
When you’re baptized as a little child
You just can’t pray over someone
And they receive it just like that
Others believe you receive salvation
When you’re baptized as an adult
When they dunk you under the water
You then become a Child of God
Some believe you become a Christian
At the time you join the church
Yet when you join the church
You’re only joining an organized body
Others believe when you’re born
You automatically are a Christian
So they now can do what they want
And God will receive them into heaven
Many think if they pray the sinner’s prayer
That will make them a Christian
But that is only a half truth
If you don’t mean it, you’re not saved
Salvation isn’t any of these
Salvation was paid for on that tree
Jesus died, then He was buried
On the third day He rose again
Salvation is a free gift
Anyone can receive it, if your heart is open
But if you reach out to receive Christ
You must mean it with your whole heart
If you ask Christ into your heart
By the words in which you speak
If you don’t mean it from your heart
You’ll not be born again
God’s only looking for serious people
Which has the desire for their life to change
From the old life to a new one
Wanting joy to flow right in
God won’t receive a selfish person
That wants to straddle the fence
By believing what they want to
Giving the rest of the time to the world
God, yes, God our creator
Makes it clear to us in His word
That He is a jealous God
He wants our whole heart or nothing at all
The question each must ask yourself
Am I tired of the life I live
Is the life I’m now living
Bringing glory to the Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord can change you from the inside out
Renew your life through and through
Where you’ll have a peace within
And it will not be a false pretense
When you totally commit your life to Christ
Your life will take on a desire for Him
You’ll know that very moment
That you have been born again
You’ll desire to tell others
Of what Christ has done for you
It will then give you a peace of mind
A peace which you’ve never had
Because Jesus has renewed your whole mind
You now desire what he has for you
He now becomes your dearest friend
You’ll begin to share it wherever you go
Stop serving all those dead Gods
The world keeps teasing you with
Then turn your life totally over to Jesus
The one and only true God
Please don’t wait another moment
Then enjoy the best for your life today
This moment surrender your all to Jesus
He’ll welcome you with open arms

Many Think
This is a very strange topic
But it needs to be addressed my friend
For it is important what we think
It is so important to God
Too often people in this world
Especially in the church today
Believe they can pick and chose
Only the things they want from God
That’s why there are so many denominations
Then multitudes of churches within
And multitudes of independent churches
Stretched all around the world
Can every one of them be right?
I’m afraid every one of them has some untruth
And many are lined with untruth
How can we say, they all are right
There is only one truth we can trust
That’s the Holy Word of God
Too often we find one thing in it
And we take it out of context
That thing in which we have found
Now has become so powerful to us
We never totally check the scriptures
Which will prove, we are wrong
You may say, what do you mean by that
Let’s put our thinking cap on
The best way to test the truth you’ve found
Is to write down all scriptures people use against it
You list all the scriptures you use
Then list all the ones others use
Now you are ready to study
Whether your belief is right or wrong
Now it’s time to study the whole counsel of God
How do we need to start?
We need first to go to God in prayer
That He prepares our heart to receive
We need to ask the Lord to clear our mind
Of the way we now see it
And to open our mind to receive
What the Lord will reveal to us
Even if we are proven wrong
In the thinking which we have
We’ll be willing dear Lord to change
And cast aside the untruth we have
Dear Lord this applies to whatever side
Of the question I have before me
For Lord I’m only looking for truth
Not my will, but thine be accomplished
Now dear Lord as I look at this passage
Give me the setting, each passage speaks about
I’ll read many passages before it
And many passages after it
If I dear Lord haven’t read it
With truly an open mind
May I keep reading it over and over again
Until the passage truly jumps out to me
Lord I truly know it’s the only way
I can get the true mind of God
Truly it’s not my will I want
But I truly want your mind dear Lord
When we truly come to that mentality
We’re now open to receive, if we’re right or wrong
For God truly wants to give us truth
So our hearts can be truly blessed
But Lord, there’s one thing I want
More than anything else in life
That you to be lifted up through it
And there will be less and less of me
I don’t want to be puffed up
So that my life will shine
But I want you to shine through me
So heaven will be seen, not me
Now Lord my heart is now prepared
And I know your word doesn’t lie
So I’m open to how it turns out
My desire is to find your will
Be assured God will reveal to you
It may be the opposite of your thinking
Or what your church or denomination has taught you
But remember it’s alright, for you want God’s will
It’s so important to get God’s will
Don’t be afraid to step outside your church
And listen to many other preachers
That teaches things different than yours
Yet don’t fail to be found faithful
To the church in which you attend
For your church is so important
For you to be obedient to God’s word
It’s through getting the thoughts of others
Then going back to the word of God
Once you have proven it totally wrong
Then ask the Lord to totally clear your mind
We’ll find that much, of what we have learned
Is far from the truth of God’s word
For much of what we’ve been taught
Is nothing more than a half truth
How can I say this, with an open mind
I can say God has changed much in me
I thought I was definitely right
When God proved to me, I was wrong
So won’t you talk to the Lord, seriously?
God’s word is always right
But remember the Bible was written to believers
It’s confusing to the ears of the unsaved
Then remember, God’s word never lies
If it lied, we wouldn’t be serving the right God
So we must go to the word with this understanding
We’ll stop picking and choosing, what we want to believe
Then remember the Bible is a living word
It can’t be studied as other books
We must ask for the mind of Christ
That He reveals to us the truth
God will never reveal things to us
Until we stop taking praise for ourselves
And we only search the scriptures
To lift up Christ and no one else
Are you ready, to find truth
Or are you wanting to puff up yourself
If your desire is to puff up yourself
You will never find real truth

Not Everything That’s Bad Is Bad
A child born into this world
Yet death comes to their life
Most say what a tragedy
That God allowed it to happen
Many think that God doesn’t like them
But remember God loves everyone
God thinks in a much different way
Than man does on this earth
A couple reasons God may have allowed it is,
God sees what’s ahead in their life
And God takes them from this earth
Before there accountable for their sins
Others he may take life from them
Even if there a child of God
Because many may come to the Lord
By the tragedy they went through
It could be a dad or a mom
Or a friend along the way
That is drawn to the Savior
Because of the life of Christ they lived
We must learn that God always
Has a reason for what happens in our lives
It’s for us to seek the Lord each day
To find out what Christ has for us
For many people God may hold blessings back
From you having many things
Or even a lot of money
For you wouldn’t know how to handle it
Once you know, the Lord Jesus Christ
And you have little upon this earth
You enjoyed your life every day
Having little trouble along the way
You thanked the Lord for all you had
Even though you had very little
The smallest things you received
You appreciated, every one of them
If you had received a lot of money
Your life would have totally changed
You wouldn’t have enjoyed little things in life
And all the old friends which you had
Now you’re thinking of making changes
Of things you can purchase for your self
Then things would become your idol
Rather than serving the Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord holding things back from you
Is for you, a very good thing
For it keeps your eyes on Jesus
Rather than for you to serve the devil
Let’s look at some which are healed
And others which are not
Does God love one better than another
Or does he have a purpose for your life
God wants us to serve him fully
Through the thick and the thin
Whether we may be healed or not
Christ needs to still be number one
It could be God doesn’t heal you now
Or even your whole life in the future
For he knows you will serve him
Whether you are healed or not
But some may view there healing
As what they have done themselves
And they never give credit to God
For allowing you to be healed
Which may lead you down the wrong road
Yes a road of sin and shame
When if you hadn’t been healed
You may still be serving Christ
There’s another area we need to see
That deals with our Savior above
When he died, was buried, and rose again
Many say what a tragedy it was
They pointed fingers at the crowd
And the officials of that day
Saying that these officials should die
The same death that Jesus did
But remember this was all planned out
By our Lord from the beginning of time
Which was thousands of years
Before Jesus came to this earth
Our dear Lord saw though time
How wicked man on earth would be
So he planned to send his only Son
The only perfect sacrifice for our sins
All the torture Jesus went through
As they drug and tortured Him along the way
Yes on the way to Golgotha
To be killed for you and me
His death was not taken in vain
As so many on earth would think
No, Jesus’s life was not taken
He allowed his life to come to an end
You may say he didn’t have a choice
All odds were against our Savior
But he could have stopped them in their tracks
By calling ten thousand angles
Jesus took a look at you and me
We wouldn’t have had any hope
So he chose to die that you and I
Could be set free from our sins
So he died and was buried
His enemies thought it was the end of him
But during his death he went to hell
And grabbed the keys to the bottomless pit
Then he came back and rose again
Many said it was impossible to happen
But you don’t know the God I serve
The stone was rolled away, and he came forth
They had sealed the tomb, and placed a heavy stone
Which a few men could not move
Then they placed guards around the clock
For He said in three days he would rise again
If he hadn’t kept his word
Of rising on the third day
We could say he wasn’t God
For God always keeps his word
No, coming to Christ isn’t free
As man woman and child wants to believe
For it also costs you dearly my friend
We must surrender everything to Him
No, God won’t accept a portion
Of your life on earth
For if you only give Christ a portion
Satan would still have a part of you
But if you will give Christ your all
Yes surrender everything to him
Your life will totally change
To conform to the things of Him
No you don’t have to give everything up
As man on earth will tell you
But once you surrender your life to Christ
Your desires will want the things of Him
So your friends, which you once had,
Which served Satan, by your side
If they don’t surrender to Jesus
They will quickly flee from you
If you surrender all to Jesus
Meaning it with your whole heart
Your life will soon be surrounded
With people who truly love the Lord
Won’t you surrender to Christ today
Give him your whole heart
You’ll never regret the move
And God will make a place for you in heaven
So Christ going to the cross
Died and then came forth from the tomb
Wasn’t a bad thing, but a good thing
So you and I, could be set free

Counterfeit
Counterfeit is portrayed, in so many ways
It has been used throughout all times
But most do not realize
What is behind those counterfeits
Counterfeits come in many package
They’re driven by Satan himself
If he can deceive you into believing in them
He has you totally in his grips
This world is full of counterfeits
There everywhere in which you turn
Satan has pulled out all the stops
In order to deceive you right into hell
Counterfeits start at the very top
Yes leaders of this world
I don’t say it to make things up
It’s backed by the word of God
Anything which goes against the word of God
Is a counterfeit in this world
Satan starts at the very top
Through them, he can change a whole nation
Things which we buy everywhere
Many of them are counterfeit
They have stolen from someone else
Making things which you can’t tell from the original
There are things which others make
They’re making it much cheaper
Yet it looks just like the original one
So they out sell the original
But as I said at the very first
That it starts at the very top
We have a counterfeit president
Running our nation, yes he is counterfeit
How do we know, he’s a counterfeit president
He doesn’t believe in our constitution
He’s deceiving most people living here
And they accept everything he say
It’s all about a one world order
No matter what our constitution says
He does what he wants to change this nation
Not caring whom he may destroy
He’ll twist arms to force people to vote
For the things against our constitution
Deceiving people into believing
That everything will work out alright
He convinced the leaders to vote for
The health bill filled with thousands of pages
Saying vote for the bill to get it passed
And we’ll deal with the problems later
He deceived the leaders of this nation
To pass the hate bill as quick as they could
Everyone loves doing away with hate
But that’s how he deceived the people
What the hate bill was about
Was to quite the Christians around this nation
Which is totally against the constitution
The Christian, was the only one it was for
Who was behind getting this passed?
Museum’s, so they could advance in this nation
They got just what they wanted
And the Christian attacks are rapidly increasing
Every time they come against a Christian
It plants fear in so many Christian’s lives
So they hold back in teaching God’s word
The churches have become so weak
What Christians must come to realize
The laws of God, supersede the laws of man
And if we don’t follow God’s Holy Word
We will be sent straight to hell
We have a ruthless enemy
Which is out to destroy our lives
He already knows his destination is hell
He wants to drag everyone to hell with him
So many are falling for his tactics
Yes Christians which have surrendered to Christ
There following him one step at a time
Being deceived by the enemy of their soul
Yet the Savior of our soul
Has made a hiding place for each of us
When we truly accept Christ into our heart
We can hide in the arms of God
Yet we still can’t let our guard down
For Satan will deceive you in any way he can
Won’t you stay close to the Savior’s side
Asking the Holy Spirit to lead the way
Yield to the Holy Spirit each step of the way
Don’t push His gentle tugging away
For if we give Satan one inch of our life
He’ll never stop there my friend
He’ll send little things, past your life each day
Things which really doesn’t seem bad
Many times they are only things
Consuming your time, so you don’t have time for Christ
Time to daily read your bible
Yet it multiplies as the days pass by
So you’ll never think anything about it
Until Satan has total control of your life
It starts out so innocently
Then it multiplies as the days go by
So you’ll never think anything about it
Until Satan has your total life
Don’t think one minute that Satan
Can’t snatch you out of the arms of Jesus
Yes Jesus will hold onto us tightly
Yet we ourselves can cast ourselves out
Many get so caught up in their kids
Their minds each day is consume with them
They drown the voice of the Savior out
Without considering that it’s an attack of Satan
So it’s important to set aside time each day
To get alone with the Savior above
So He can speak to your heart
Along with you, bringing to Him your every cares
Be assured Christ will never leave you
But you can, if you don’t keep that bond
With Christ each day that you live
Won’t you stay close to the cross
Yes, people may make fun of you
But remember God said we would be
A peculiar people which serve him
You may say, what does peculiar mean
It means you are set apart
From the ways of this old world
Totally focused on Jesus
The Savior of our soul
We’re not a bunch of weird people
With no one directing our path
But a person which gives Christ all of our life
Spreading the love of God wherever we go
We don’t cave into peer pressures
For, they will lead you down the wrong road
The road designed for Satan and his angels
You surely don’t want to go there
Just the smile we carry on our face
Will bring joy to others we meet
Then they will hunger for what we have
They’ll open the door, by asking us questions
No, Christians shouldn’t carry a sad face
