My story is not for the religious or the atheistic or the agnostic... it is for everyone interested in the truth. This blog contains first drafts of poetry and prose for my series of books on Christ, the first of which, Waking Up Jesus, is being greeted kindly by critics. Thank you... John Scott Ridgway
TRUE STORY:
WAKING UP JESUS
The ongoing story of Jesus waking up in Chicago, in the body of an agnostic writer,
who is nothing like the Son of God the right-wing Christians watching him expected.
You are welcome to share my work with a link bank... keep getting asked this...
Last time I was here, I told them I would not lead a revolution, that I was there to spread heresy. The crowds thinned. The day they killed me, I marched alone... This time I have returned to find Romes Soldiers Sleeping, content they have killed off the Troublesome Jew. I was surprised how bloody the Indiana boy became as my sword fell again and again ....
In the years since this story began in 2007, my secret fame has spread out from the halls of power that kept me secret all these years, as they waited for the Christ to finally wake up...
I try to imagine their anticipation.
Remember a dream I had in my twenties about running thru Chicago screaming that Christ was coming back, and man oh man was I happy... a cloud came through the middle of the skyscrapers above me, in the thin strip of blue above Dowtown State street, and I expected to see Christ... instead, just a bunch of musicians painted up like Ziggy stardust.
I surprised my keepers. They thought they had me figured out from the Bible. If that book could have told you everything, there would be no need at all for me.
Jesus: "I have become Known across this planet as a dangerous man with a growing force of hidden followers who value my orders more than life itself. A prophet of war. Once and future King in a court of shadows. Life and death in my hands every damn day. I ROAR, your most mighty shit themselves and run. I make myself a known threat, so I can try to negotiate what otherwise requires bullets and blood. I am here to free the enslaved in body and mind. I cannot be defeated. When the Will of God and The WILL OF THE PEOPLE ARE ONE, NO FORCE ON EARTH CAN STOP US!"

caged angels
ANGELS WITH CLIPPED WINGS
THE BEST OF DISGUISES
THEY USE
TO KEEP MAN
FROM KNOWING
WHAT SORT OF POWER
STANDS
AT THE READY
IN THEIR MIDST
luminescent white wings held tight
to his body
covering his back
reaching down
to his calves
He
PACES THE CAGE
made gorgeous by hi keepers
who fear a day of vengeance will come
when the son of God will release the creatures
they have caged
they would have lost all worldly power
if men and women with wings
began being born
around the planet
the decision was made
that they they could
be aliens
whatever... a threat to power
is a threat to power
they think this one is the leader
others fear he is the Christ himself
come down to suffer with his soldiers
HIS FACE is SERENE as
he takes the four steps across the
filthy concrete
He KNOWs his 'seeming human captures'
CANNOT CONTAIN
THE REACH OF THEIR POWER
Just a TEMPORARY PLACE THEY WAIT
FOR THE ORDER TO COME DOWN
TO BREAK OUT AND LEAD
THE RIGHTEOUS TO THE SON
a place to watch the enemy
see how they will react to the rising
of the child now man
flesh chosen to hold the soul
of the son of God
He is ready
waiting with patience
for an end he resents and does not understand
that which the prophecy say no one
not even the son can know
the time
when the Father declares
the END...ALL PLANETS DIE
the World needs people to step up...
and I always have,
always will....
no matter how many of them there are.
I am in this net
because HERE
THE WORLD WIDE CONSCIOUS WILL DEVELop,
the peaceful world we can
HOPEfully leave our children
to build in the ashes of the one percent
WAKING UP JESUS, VOLUME TWO...
