Man Will Reap What They Sow.



But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. - Matthew 18:6

Open your eyes; cast off the veil.
We've allowed our country to turn to hell.

You wonder why things are odd.
We've forsaken the ways of God.

You wonder why things are strange;
it isn't because of climate change.

Children are being led to hell;
open your eyes; cast off the veil.

It's not okay to change God's rules;
forgive us, Lord, we've been such fools.

God isn't mocked, don't you know?
Man will reap what they sow.
