World Peace
&
Other Cries !
Petition Poems to the High Chancel
& Star-shots clad in Double Irony
By Wayne David Knoll
Crying ‘Peace, peace, when there is no peace.’
‘From the least to the greatest they are deceitful...
Lightly they treat the disaster of my people !
Crying “Peace, peace, when there is no peace.”
- Futurist and priest are alike in this deceit.
They should be ashamed of their abominable deeds.
But they have no shame and do not know how to blush.
And so they will stumble and fall with the others
when I come to visit
- it is Yahweh who speaks...
This is what Yahweh says to you.
“Stand in the roads and look.
Question for the true paths of old times.
Ask where the good way is and walk in it.
And you shall find peace for your souls.”
~ The Prophet Jeremiah (Ch 6: 13-16)
95 THESES
Out of love for the truth and the desire to bring it to light, the following propositions will be discussed at Wittenberg, under the presidency of the Reverend Father Martin Luther, Master of Arts and of Sacred Theology, and Lecturer in Ordinary on the same at that place. Wherefore he requests that those who are unable to be present and debate orally with us, may do so by letter. In the Name our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Disputation of Doctor Martin Luther on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences by Dr. Martin Luther (1517)
Thesis 92-95
92. Away, then, with all those prophets who say to the people of Christ, "Peace, peace," and there is no peace!
93. Blessed be all those prophets who say to the people of Christ, "Cross, cross," and there is no cross!
94. Christians are to be exhorted that they be diligent in following Christ, their Head, through penalties, deaths, and hell;
95. And thus be confident of entering into heaven rather through many tribulations, than through the assurance of peace
