Gethsemane
I bowed my knees proper
And lonely I drained the basin
My sweat beaded hastily
All stress endued by Satan
And the path broken; shattered
No return to the Eden before
Dimness of light on all corners
The perseverance higher; the intensity the storm
My tears as blood dripping
Sorrow in a cup running over
It is but chastening by my Lord
I am brittle; brushed asunder
The dawn of Calvary bled
Minutes, if not hours premature
For the anguish tethered my soul
To the heart did mercilessness incur
Battered by demons; rotted
A carcass no man would touch
I lunged to that cross; fallen
Into the hands of God I submitted my trust
And now glorify Thy Son
With the glory that was revealed

Published by Matthew Pope
A graduate of Belmont Abbey College, a Catholic, private institution, Matthew received his Bachelors of Arts degree in Theology in May of 2012. Upon registering for pastoral training in August of 2013, he was formerly a Master of Divinity student at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, pursuing the Evangelism program. With a transparent calling from God, his life dramatically changed as he received confirmation into The Catholic Church in November of 2016. Matthew's passion rests in serving the nations with the hope of The Gospel. Author of his lay-ministry, Even Unto The End Of The World, which was established on November 12, 2013, he has also produced his previous books: In Doctrine, Uncorrupt (which was released on February 15, 2014) and Assembled With One Accord (published on December 1, 2015), and is currently writing and planning for following books to come.
With a revelatory vision, Matthew intends to encounter the culture and Christendom with truth. In addition, he intends to draw forth the rudiments of the Most Holy Catholic Faith to transform all Christian denominations into The One Church. Matthew confessed Jesus Christ as Savior at age seventeen, impressed with the desire to enter the ministry, in March of 2008. A native of Shelby, North Carolina, he was born on May 28, 1990. He now resides in Wake Forest, North Carolina where he has been actively writing since late 2013.
