SCRIPTURE
Luke 21:20-24 (NRSV)
A messianic warning
"When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation has come near. Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains, and those inside the city must leave it, and those out in the country must not enter it; for these are days of vengeance, as a fulfillment of all that is written. Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress on the earth and wrath against this people; they will fall by the edge of the sword and be taken away as captives among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

She’s shouting
The sky is falling, the sky is falling!
I’m so tired of her dire predictions
Of things to come
The sky is not falling
All is well
I am happy
Comfortable
At ease
Why must she always be bothering
ME
With those prophesies
Of doom
And gloom
When all about me
Sunshine
Prosperity
Filthy lucre
Abounds
HALLELUJAH!
What did you say?
All Hail King JESUS!
My Lord,
The sky is actually
FALL
IN
G…
