"THE 'GATES' TO HEAVEN!"
Copyright 2002 by Patricia L. Carpenter

There are The 'Gates' to Heaven
always open wide,
'Waiting' for The Father
to call forth ~ His 'Bride'!

The 'Bride' of Christ Jesus ~
The 'CHURCH' whose getting ready,
Anyone who BELIEVES in Him
'Loves' & is 'holding steady'.

'Faithful' Believers ~
'listening' for His call,
'Anxiously' awaiting
so we can 'have a Ball'.

More like a 'Banquet'
fit for 'The King',
Where there's always REJOICING
& where I want to SING!

Are you looking forward
to ENTERING those 'Gates' so wide?
I pray you are, my friend
so I can meet you while inside!

Oh, such glorious 'treasures'
abide ~ way up there,
But, not the kind your thinking
& everyone can share!

The 'Greatest Treasure' is JESUS
~CHRIST~ The King of Kings,
Then the treasure of: 'NO MORE SIN'
& 'flying' without wings.

Always 'Sonlight' shining
no more 'darkness' lurking about,
Oh, doesn't this want to make you
stand up & ~ just shout?

Alas, there are the 'people'
'families' & 'friends' ~
And all the 'Bible Folks'
who Loved God back then!

No more 'sorrow' & 'suffering'
or 'sickness' & 'handicaps',
I'd sure like to meet those, too,
who stood ~ 'standing in my gap'!

'Interceding' for me
praying for my Salvation,
And all the many folks
praying for this 'Nation'!

Many Crowns will be given
all sizes, shapes, & with precious Jewels,
But, the 'Crown of Life' we'll get
wasn't made for ~ FOOLS!

Fools ~ who 'rejected' Christ
& didn't 'believe' He died for them,
'Uncaring' ones who scorned Him
& desired to 'live in sin'!

To these ~ The 'Gates' are CLOSED
unless they 'truly' REPENT,
And that's why God has chosen
these POEMS~ to the World ~ I've sent!

God wants NO-ONE to perish*
but to have 'Eternal' Life,
Not eternal 'separation' from Him
in hell ~ with nothing but strife.

Hell was made only for the devil
but has 'enlarged' itself, *
For folks allowed him to deceive them
so they sat there on a shelf.

Making NO decision
to CHOOSE Christ as their Savior,
Deceived into thinking:
they'll 'make it' on ~ their 'good behavior'!

Or: "I'll wait till the very End
& ~cry out~ to God to save me,
Having my FUN in the meantime
sinning very gleefully."

BUT ~ will they have that chance
or ~ even ~ will they take it,
Their hearts so hard & calloused
that decision ~ will they make it?

Oh, my friend, I trust
you are ready to Enter ~
Those 'Gates' into Heaven
where CHRIST is the 'Center'!

Casting down our 'Crowns'
at His dear Feet,
Because He bled & died for US
& arose ~ 'Satan' to defeat!!

Yes, Jesus DEFEATED Satan
at that Cross of shame,
So you can be an OVERCOMER
& joyously wear His Name!

Thus becoming part of 'The Bride'
The 'Church' who ~truly~ Believes,
So when we go through those 'Gates'
our 'Souls' He will RECEIVE!
AMEN!
