In De Profundis, Oscar Wilde, in a lengthy letter to his former lover, reflects on suffering, forgiveness, and redemption. As a confessional text, it ranks with the Confessions of Saint Augustine as an examination of the nature of penitence, its origin and transformative effect. T. W. H. Crosland (1865-1924), a social commentator, was extremely moralistic. Among his targets was Oscar Wilde, whose contrition, as expressed in De Profundis, he believed to be an elaborate and convenient sham.

He challenges those who, through allegorical methods, treat passages of Scripture intended for the nations of Israel and Iraq (ancient Babylon) as if they are applicable to the United States. Allegorical methods are open to the whims of people’s imaginations and become disconnected from the plain meaning of scripture, whereas the method of using Scripture to unlock Scripture demonstrates that the United States and other modern nations, such as Russia and China, are identifiable, and their fates can be ascertained.Paul encourages the reader to look beyond the coming judgement on the United States toward its future repentance and restoration. Christians who grasp the magnitude of our country’s fate will be better prepared for the coming shaking.

A classic comedy by the great Oscar Wilde. The Importance of Being Earnest is his short farce consisting of numerous noms de plume, a case of mistaken identity, an identity left in a case by mistake, and the mistake of revealing ones identity in the presence of a previous employer, which may result post-script in a case for Scotland Yard. Or to put much more simply, of Jack and his attempts to woo Gwendolyn, his would-be bride... even if she does seem to think his name is Earnest.
