God is the Alpha and Omega of censorship


So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

-- Genesis 3:24

As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 

-- Matthew 13:40ff.

When the cosmos chases its tail


When, like a bridegroom from the east, the sun
Sets forth; he thither, whence he came, doth run.

The fate of the damned: Taken where, Lord? Wherever the corpse is, there the eagles will be gathered together

 
For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

-- Matthew 24:27f.

Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

-- Luke 17:33ff.

How Far Is The East From The West?

So near, because it is right behind you, and yet so far, because . . .

It is the difference between walking this way, and turning and walking that way, in the opposite direction.

In thus turning . . . is repentance, and in nothing else.

Lo, it was for my welfare that I had great bitterness; but thou hast held back my life from the pit of destruction, for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

-- Isaiah 38:17

As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

-- Psalm 103:12
