Prepare to meet thy god

Below is the first plaque I ever bought (back in 2002). I've always been attracted to objects with words on them and liked the clean seriffed script. But most of all I enjoyed the dissonance between the sensuality of the pink lustre and the doom-laden text.

Again with Ian Holmes' help, I've posted more than 50 plaques with this text on the pink religious and other religious sub-pages.
