Jack and Jill Out of Gas

 Jack and Jill Out of Gas                            


     by Danny C. Wash


Jack and Jill went up the hill

to fetch a pale of $4 gasoline

but their money it was very lean

and down they rolled with nil.


Jill said why don’t we ride the bus.

Jack headed for the corner to wait

and sit on the bench with his mate, 

how to get money they did discuss. 


Jack asked Jill if she had any more,

but in her purse were only pennies four,

realizing that money they had none

so the riding of the bus was not done.


And that’s the sad story of Jack and Jill

having no funds which is not so funny

and are not able their gas tank to fill

until Jack gets his pay and has some money.

God’s Mystery                                                           by Danny C. Wash                                                  “ The mystery which has been hidden from the past ages and generations; but has now been manifested to  His saints.” Colossians 1:26 What is God’s mystery?  A mystery is a secret, an unknown thing. Something that is not easily understood. But, God’s mystery has now been revealed to  anyone who will ask, seek, and knock, as Jesus  has said. God’s mystery is, Christ in you, the hope  of glory and you complete in Christ. This secret was  hidden from the past generations before the cross  and the victory of the resurrection. The demons did not know the secret, so they participated unknowingly  in the revealing of the secret by nailing Jesus to the  cross thinking they had the victory only to be defeated  on the third day in the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus became  the Messiah, the Savior, the Christ. And, then it was revealed  that by God’s act we were p

First, let me say that the below is not to be taken as an argument against your beliefs, it is just a statement of what I believe most Christians believe.   As I said, Christians believe that God is One, in the sense that the Godhead is three in One- the Father, the Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit (what has been called “the Trinity”). The three are distinct personalities, but are not separate, in Christian thought. How that really works is one of the mysteries of our belief.  As you may know (and I don’t know your level of knowledge abo
