A Striking Contrast Now Being Screened
"My heart is stirred by something good.
I say:
“My song is about a king.”
May my tongue be the stylus of a skilled copyist." Ps. 45:1.
***
"When they do not speak according to this word,
they have no light.
And each one will pass through the land
afflicted and hungry;
and because he is hungry and indignant,
he will curse his king and his God as he looks upward.
Then he will look to the earth and see only distress and darkness, obscurity and hard times, gloom and no brightness." Isa. 8:20-22.

O' 'Most Handsome' One
whose tongue
of silk and honey
since "Gracious speech
flows from your lips"
melting hearts hardened
by shunning and sin...
Your words winsome
won over
many
who've greatly pinned them
since spun
from heaven's throne.
This 'Word'--
a 'beloved' Son
will have received his beauteous
composite 'bride' of "the 144, 000,
who have been bought from the earth."
Singing a lovely 'new song'.
"Out of every tribe
and tongue and people and nation,
and you made them to be a kingdom
and priests to our God,
and they are to rule as kings
over the earth.” Rev. 14:3; 5:9, 10.
A Father's magnificent gift
for 'obedient' mankind who exists
as an 'earthly' part of a 'universal' family
to gratefully 'belong'.
This beautiful 'heavenly' spouse
to forever reside
as an immortal 'perfect' mate
to 'participate' in reinstating
the Creator's glorious 'purpose'--
A 'Paradise'... Our 'earth' to make:
"And God went on to create the man in his image,
in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.
Further, God blessed them, and God said to them:
“Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it,
and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.”" Gen. 1:27, 28.

"Jehovah of armies—
he is the One you should regard as holy,
He is the One you should fear,
And he is the One who should cause you to tremble.”
He will become as a sanctuary,
But as a stone to strike against
And as a rock to stumble over
To both houses of Israel,
As a trap and a snare
To the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Many of them will stumble and fall and be broken;
They will be ensnared and caught.
Wrap up the written confirmation;
Seal up the law among my disciples!
I will keep in expectation of Jehovah,
who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob,
and I will hope in him." Isa. 8:13-17.
"The scepter will not depart from Judah,
neither the commander’s staff from between his feet,
until Shiʹloh comes,
and to him the obedience of the peoples will belong." Gen. 49:10.
"On his outer garment, yes, on his thigh, he has a name written,
King of kings and Lord of lords." Rev. 19:16.
"God is your throne forever and ever;
The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness.
You loved righteousness,
and you hated wickedness.
That is why God, your God,
has anointed you with the oil of exultation
more than your companions."
"Your sons will take the place of your forefathers.
You will appoint them as princes in all the earth.
I will make your name known
throughout all generations to come.
That is why peoples will praise you
forever and ever." Ps. 45:6, 7, 16, 17.
***
"Strap your sword on your side,
O mighty one,
In your dignity
and your splendor.
And in your splendor
go on to victory;
Ride in the cause of truth and humility
and righteousness,
And your right hand
will accomplish awe-inspiring things." Ps. 45:1, 3, 4.
