BLUE GRASS BLADE
The Christians Messiah

the people the coming of a golden age. Can
you imagine what inspiration it must have
planted in the breast of poor ignorant
Jealous believing jew? All, too, there was
some messiah, some great leader to make his
appearance to bring about this great triumph
of God. 20 h this great triumph of Gods
chosen people was not all accomplished at
the delivery from the Babylonian captivity;
it cannot be in the past, it is surely in the
future and soon TO come" was the cry of
thousands of Israel's unfortunate sons. Hun
dreds of messiahs did arise and led tens of
thousands of Jews to destruction.
One Jesus of Galilee had made great pre-.
tentions but he came to his death without
delivering the Jews. 1t is said, at his death
many of his followers were disappointed who
trusted that it were he who should have de-
livered Israel. After his death, after it had
become an event of the past religions are
always built on the past the future.), some
of the sayings of Jesus still lingering; the
people resurrected him. 1t was not God but
the people that did this resurrecting, and not
three days after but many years. Yes Jesus
time had not yet come to make his deliver
ance. He was to come again and within the
generation in which he lived, and this part
of the Bible was evidently composed within
that same generation. Little by little the
gospels were formed and added to- In them
Jesus made to foretell his own resur-
rectIOn, but not one OF MS followers Claimed
to believe it at the time, but virtually denied
it. and I don't believe it either. If Jesus
followers really believed He was the Christ
sent from God then they also believed that
all they told them was true. If they told
them. as the New Testament represents he
did, that he should be put to death and
raise again the third day they would have
believed it, which the New Testament rep
resents they did rot.
To make all the Old Testament savings har-
monte with the facts as they occurred and the
theories of the makers of the Christian religion
they were spiritualized but as the Jews have
not even been delivered spiritually this de-
liverance was not intended to take place at
his coming, buH at some spiritual coming
in the future, no one knows when but very
soon you know. The New Jerusalem that
Cyrus was to rebuild is also made a spiritual
affair by the New Testament writers. And
the gentles are are all going into it;-all
that don't go to hell, as is the most of them.
But they have to die to get there which is
quite near the truth still using spiritual
language.

My Dear Heavenly Father:
Why did you change your mind and
drown all the people in the world but
Noah? Why did you save two rattlesnakes
and two skuffs? Were all the mountains
in the world covered with water! Where
did all go when it quit raining? How do
you make it rain and why did you not
make it rain last month when all the Priests
in Los Angeles and Bob Burdette were say
ing mass for rain? They were terribly dis
appointed that you went back on them and
then made it rain when Hatfield started his
smoke. Did you think it was Holy smoke
he made?
Did you destroy San Francisco with the
earthquake Papa has picture of the city
taken from a balloon and there is one big
building left all alone 1t is wholesale
whiskey house. Did you save it on purposef
Is it the blood of Jesus? Joe says you are
not opposed to drinking. Is that sol Joe
is not a prohibitionist but he is as pious as
a darkey can ever get. He says all the good
people in the Bible drink and some of them
used to get drunk? He says that the first
black man, was white, till he got drunk and
ayed all day in the sewer and ever since
his children have been black. Joe believes
it. He thinks it is blessing in disguise.
Do you ever get drunk and have good time
when a person like Durant or Orchard are
hung and go to heaven? How many MUIR
derers are there in heaven now? Do all
murderers go to heaven? / wish 1 had
list, and a list of the good people who are
in the other place. 1t might help me decide
where | want to go. Joe says when bad
man embrasses de lO'd der is nrusic and
dancin in heben and dat all things are pos
sible with you. | don't take much stock In
Joe's religion. but he thinks he knows it
all. Now, if wanted somebody to find
''los' chickens at nite' / would hire joe
He thinks a chicken is "los" when it is
asleep and the person owns it, that wakens
it, if it don't squack. Is he inspired when
he finds chickens, and when he tells about
the big light he seed when he was converted!
I lust went to see the big fleet of battle
ships. Do you believe in killing all the
people you can, and would you make the
sun stand still so that Roosevelt could kill
more people if he wanted too? Wood yough
shoot person in the back to keep him
from getting away il you were jealous and
angry or only just sometimes? Why didn't
you want Eve to dress up in fig leayesf l
declare this is funny picture papa has of
you I wonder If it is like you, I mean the
one with two-eyed seward for tung.
I will put my picture in the next letter If
you will send me yours first.
Well I must clothes. There is not thing
to 90 to Sunday school for now since Easter,
but the preacher is getting up trading
stamp scheme so we can get candy the same
as they do in Denver, then there will be
some sense in going.
