The Black Market Master

    "He who does what is sinful is of the devil because
the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason
the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work."
                                                            -(1 John 3:8)

     "The most brilliant theological mind in the universe is
also the one with the least love: his name is Lucifer."
                                                                   -Peter Kreeft

  The Black Market Master
    

We're the Foolish Naive,
    Who just die to believe,
     In the Lie that the Serpent
      Does sell.
We've heard his false voices,
     His scamming Pro-Choices...
      But the real choice he's selling
        Is Hell.


Please, buyer beware,
     Of Beelzebub's wares!
The gold that he sells is a-glitter.
But his gold is for fools,
     Who've rejected The Rules.
Our standing advice?
      Reconsider!


He's the Junk Bondage Broker,
      Bonfire Vanity Stroker,
      High Priest of High Profits
        And more.....
He's The Artist of Con,
      Like a Mafia Don,
      An apple that's bad to the core.



His scheme? It's nightmarish...
      Neither bullish nor bearish.
      He's a lion....a ravenous Beast.
The Wholesaler of Souls,
      Not silver or gold...
And futures?
      He offers the least.



He's the Chief Inside Traitor,
     And Man-ipulator,
     A promoter of lies and deceit.
Since the Crash of The Fall,
     He's got hot tips for all....
      And humanity's feeling the heat.



The stock that's in store?
      Clones, abortion and more!
      It's his dark inventory of doom....
The deal that was struck,
      Long ago ran amok....
      When consumer became
       The consumed.



He's Accuser. He's Loser.
    The wicked Heel-Bruiser,
    The Usurper of Truth
      On the take.
His fly-by-night-notion,
    Is a deadly promotion.
His product?
     The Oil of the Snake.



The pitch he's been pitching,
    Is enticing, bewitching....
    A curve he throws quite underhanded.
His exchange rate from hell,
    Is a tempting soft-sell.
    Man's Account in the Garden
      Was landed.



When the payment comes due,
    It's for me and for you,
    To invest our souls
      To The Schemer.
He's a Snake on the lam,
     Whose plan is a scam...
Or to trust the True Lamb,
      And Redeemer.


The Son paid the price,
     For our unholy vice...
A debt we could never afford.
It's a Trust we can claim...
     A free Gift in His Name,
     By Faith in Christ Jesus,
       The Lord.


He's the Way and the Gate,
    But the hour is late....
The Truth has been
    Well-advertised.
The Gift that's in store,
     If we pass through that Door?
     God's Glory and Life realized!

   "Hell is nothing less than truth known too late."
                                                        -Os Guiness

    "If we are free, hell is possible...The kindest, gentlest,
most loving and compassionate man who ever opened
his mouth has warned us with great seriousness, strenuousness
and sternness about hell. That is the irrefutable argument
for it." -Peter Kreeft


   "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad
is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
But small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life,
and few find it."  -
(Matthew 7: 13,14)
