I am a little old fashion I guess. I read the Bible.
President, Harry S. Truman said, "best there is, can't
figure why anyone wants to mess with it." The King James
version, that is. Anyway I know there is one line the
others mess with.
John 14:2 In my FATHER'S HOUSE are many MANSIONS: if it
was not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place
for you.
Now I know the later fast-change artists reworked the thing
and have it different. I think those say there is a room
for you. A hotel room, maybe a motel room. A room of say,
15 by 20, with a bathroom, maybe.
I have the song, Mansion Over The Hilltop, playing right
now. I happen to like the sound of it.
Now stop and think a minute or two. I believe Jesus said in
my Father’s house. OK, I am thinking he meant HEAVEN. I
am going to build you a Mansion in Heaven. Just for you.
It isn't going to be a room at the hotel. You’re going to
live like a King or Queen, whichever the case may be. I am
not putting you up in some flophouse hotel or motel. It
will be a real MANSION, where you can invite all your
relation, in-laws, and out-laws in for dinner. Sure can't
do that very well in some flophouse hotel room.
You may have had a small shack while here on earth, maybe
didn't have even that. But, Jesus said right there when you
come home, you are coming home to a real Mansion, not some
flophouse hotel room.
Yes Sir, Mr. President, Harry S. Truman. They sure try to
take the poetry right out of the most wonderful Book of
Books ever written—The Bible.
