Did Yahushua Return in 70 AD? I Think We Missed the Resurrection — reblog from The Unexpected Cosmology

“But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase to more ungodliness.

I grew up with your image.
Now they say you don’t exist.
I walked in your footsteps,
it was all I needed.
I read your words
and they spoke to me

as if I was there.

Are you a figment?
Faith covers my ignorance
You speak to me still

The 60s came and they declared You dead.

that still small voice inside.

Peace and love have gone
Division has gone viral
So I turn to You
