VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH:Money Power Pleasure Fame!?!

1 John 2:15 KJV

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 

Money, Power, Pleasure, And Fame Are The Big Four Idols Which Bring Every Person Pain And Shame! We Belly Up To Them, Sure That At Their Table We Will Find A Seat, Forgetting Or Disremembering That The Holy God Said Do Not Bow Down Before Them, And Do Not On Him Cheat! 

Brethren Beloved, We Are Bold Critics Against The Ancient Clans Who, To Our Absolute Horror, Sacrificed Human Flesh Before Their Constructed Idols! We Are No Different, And Should Not Turn Up Our Face Because We, Too, Sacrifice Family, Health, And Self For What Cannot Bless Us Before What Will See Us From Heaven Dispossessed! 

Money Buys Security But It Cannot Secure Heaven For You! 

Earthly Power Is A Lubricant That Cannot Move Heaven Toward You! 

Earthly Pleasure Is Fleeting: Seek Heavenly Pleasures Forevermore! 

Earthly Fame Is A Drug Whose Dosing, Of Necessity, Must Constantly Be Increased, But When Your Relevance Is No Longer In Vogue, Your Fame Is Irrelevant And You're Become Dross Aka You're No More Gold Aka Your Winning Hand Is Now Cold! 

Our Modern-Day Idols Are Frowned Upon By The Living God! 

Our New Gods Are No Gods For They're An Abomination Compliments Of Satan King Fraud Beelzebub The Dung Lord! 

All Who Worship Idols Are Like Them Says God, So Depart From Doing Evil And You Will Not Be On The Receiving End Of The Eternal Father's Chastening Rod! 

Almighty God Sees! Almighty God Hears! Almighty God Moves: He's Here ... Very Near! 

Do Not Be Deceived Saying God Will Do Neither Evil Nor Good! You Did Not Make Yourself, And You Do Not Have The Final Say! 

The Lord, He Is God, And On The Day Of His Appointing, He Will Give Unto Each Man For His Own Doings, The Prescribed Reward! 

Dear Ones, I Am Pleading: Don't Sell Gold To Buy Dirt! 

Don't Build Your House On Sinking Sand Because You Choose Almighty God's Rules To Subvert! 

Be Wise For Your Own Self: Don't Follow The Multitude! Walk Under The Standard Of Prince Immanuel And A House In Heaven Will Be By Right Your Very Own! 

Beloved, Idols Don't Comfort Your Heart, Nor Cradle Your Head, Nor Hold Your Hand When, Believing You're Dying, You Vomit Up Your Folly In The Porcelain Princess: For That You Need The Holy Son Of God, The Returning Son Of Man Who Promised Never To Leave Us Nor Forsake Us! 

Lord, Please Help Us To Not Let Pride Stop Us From Turning Back From Folly And Latching On To Your Faith Which Overcomes The World! Leave Us Without Excuse So That None May Say: "Well, You See, I Don't See It! I Don't Get It! I Didn't Understand It!" 

Lord, You Gave Us The Holy Spirit, The Comforter, To Lead Us Into All Truth, And Truth Is Taught, Understood, And Accepted By All Honest-Hearted, Faithful, Souls! 

May You Find Us Ready To Receive You In The Glad Day, Is Our Humble Heart's Earnest Plea, In Jesus' Holy Name! AMEN!!! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Hems Are Borders!?!

Proverbs 30:5 KJV

Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. 

Let's Get Real Here, People, Brethren, Friends ... Beloved! We Have Choices, And We Have Chances! We Have Freewill And The Freedom To Choose The Choice Of Our Life's Direction, Be It Deliverance, Or Destruction! 

Sorry To Interrupt Your Flow, Bro. Innocent! 

Go Ahead, Barton! 

Thank You! I'm Thinking Of The Woman With The 12-Year Issue Of Blood! She Was "Abused" By The Medical Industrial Complex, Made Broke By Their Bills, And Was Still Sick! 

She Was Out Of Options When She Heard That The New Rabbi, The Teacher, The Healer, He Who Spoke With Power, Never Saying That "They" Said But "I Am The Life!" "Come Unto Me!" 

She Was At The Border, In The Valley Of Decision, When She Said In Her Heart - This Is How I Hear It - Hems Are Borders, Too! "If I Could Just Touch The Hem Of His Garment, I Shall Be Healed!" 

She Did Not Say Maybe, Probably, Might Be, Should Be Healed! 

Think Of Israel At The Border Of The Promised Land! The Choices Were Stay Out, Go In, Or Be Kept Out! 

Keep Going, Barton! 

Okay, Bro. Innocent, I Will! 

The River Jordan Was The Border Of The Earthy Promised Land! The Hem Of Jesus' Garment Was, For The Woman, The Border Between Good Health And Continuing Humiliation! She Was Unclean, An Untouchable, In The Eyes Of The Community! 

She Looked To Her Certain Help And Made Her Life-Altering Decision! 

Her Decision, Simple, Plain, Necessary ... Right!?! 

"In Jesus The Christ I Place My Trust ... And Cast My Lot!" 

Her Outcome: Sure Healing: Sure Salvation! 

The Feint-Hearted Decision By The Israelites!?! 

Wanderers In The Desert For 40 Years! 

The Difference!?! 

Her Faith Versus Their Doubt! 

Brethren, Let Us Not Be Mouth-Giants: Let Us Live As We Speak! 

We Say That We Believe The Word So Let Us Extend Our Hands In The Faith That We Have In Jesus Christ And Stand, Walk, Crawl, Or Lying Prostrate On Your Bed, Reach For The Hem Of His Garment, The Border Of The Heavenly Promised Land, And Boldly Take Virtue, Strength, Healing, Salvation From Jesus So That He Feels It And Asks "Who Touched Me!?!" Knowing Full Well That It Was You, Me, Us! 

Please Choose Jesus For Joy, Fellowship, Food, Salvation, Freedom, Security, Help, Healing ... Favor! 

Stop Looking In And Feeling Depressed About What Currently Is, And, Instead, Hope In Almighty God By Grace Through Faith For What Our Savior Dear Said ... Shall Be! 

Beloved, Firm Up Your Resolve! Jesus Is! Salvation Is! Heaven Is! Are You!?! 

Are We What, Barton!?! 

Are You In!?! 

Crossing, Crossed Off, Believing, Bluffing, Stewing, Stumbling, Or Sallying Forth To Victory! 

We've Got Moves To Make! 

The Lady With The Issue Of Blood Understood The Assignment! See That You Do, Too! 

Make Up Your Mind, And Make Your Mark! 

For Good Or Ill, Your Decision Will Never Be A Shot In The Dark! At The Border Of The Promised Land, You Cannot Park! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: One Holy God: Two Infallible Guarantees!

John 5:28-29 KJV

28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

There Are Two Things Guaranteed For The Life Of A Human By The Word Of The Eternal God, As Thus Saith Jesus Christ: The Glorification Of The Righteous, And The Damnation And Complete Consumption Of Unrighteous Aka Unrepentant Sinners! 

The Lord Also Made It Abundantly Clear That He Who Has Begun A Good Work In Us Will Finish It Unto The Day Of His Second Coming! 

The Lord Also Promised Us That Sin Will Not Arise A Second Time! 

Brethren, We Either Believe It Or ... We Don't! 

We Trust The Lord At His Word Or ... We Call Him A Liar! 

We Make His Word Our Walk Or ... We Walk Wild With The Wily One! 

We Trust And Obey Or ... Curse God And Don't Care Having Made The Decision To Live Life After The Desires Of Our Wanton, Wicked, Unregenerate Heart! 

Beloved, Dare To Ask Yourself: "Self, What Could Possibly Go Wrong Living After You!?!" 

I Pray That Your Self Is Not A Liar Even Though It Is Called Man! 

However, Dear Ones, Since We Are Committed Christians, And We Read Our Bibles And Pray Regularly, And Have A Real Relationship With Our Master, The Savior, The Light Of Life, The Judge Of All Flesh, The Word Of God That Was Made Flesh And Dwelt Among Us, And Is Ours For All Eternity, We Know For Truth, That Nothing Good, Right, Beneficial, Or Profitable Can Ever Come From Playing With Matches Around Gasoline, Or Gasoline Fumes! 

When You Know Your God, The Living God, You Will Never Be Gullible For Use By The God-Fraud! 

Almighty God's People Will Be Incorruptible, Immortalized, And Glorified Because After Their Justification, Being Made Right With God, They Were Set Apart For Holy Use Aka Sanctified, Remade By Daily Sanctification For The Rest Of Their Lives! 

They Will See Jesus Christ In Peace At His Return To Earth To Take His People Home To Be With Him ... Forever ... For They Will Have Worked Out Their Own Salvation ... With Godly Fear and Trembling! 

They Would Have Been Faithful, Teachable, Humble, True, Obedient ... And Enduring! 

Almighty God Gave Jesus His Son; Jesus The Son Gave His Life, And These Precious Souls Took A Hold Of That Unspeakable Gift Like Their Lives Depended On It! It Did, And It Does All Now, Today, This Hour, This Very Moment! 

The Lord Did Not, Does Not, Cast His Pearl Before Swine! 

Go Work With And For Jesus, And Leave Satan To Pretend That There Is A Swinish Rebirth! 

Stand Up For Jesus! Stand With Jesus! He, Alone, Saves! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER: There Is No Hope Without ...!?!

PRAYER:

There Is No Me, No Help, No Hope, No Healing, And No Heaven Without You, My Lord, And So I Yield My Will And My Way To Your Guidance! 

Thank You For Your Loving Kindness, Your Grace, Your Gifts Of Love Showered Mightily Upon Me This Day, Moment By Moment! 

Thank You For Your Love To Me Which Saw You Loving Me Unto Death And Back, And On Up To Highest Heaven, And Into The Most Holy Place Of The Heavenly Sanctuary Where You Are Interceding For Me, And My Kind! 

Lord, I Accept Your Sacrifice For Me And, As Such, Your Gift Of New Life In You! 

I Am A Child: Lead Me Gently Safely Home! You Are My God, Holy, Living, Giving, Forgiving, True ... Faithful! 

Please Hold Me, Help Me, Heal Me, Teach Me, Feed Me, Use Me, And Lead Me Gently, Safely Home To Heaven At The Appointed Hour, Is My Heart's Earnest Plea! 

Thank You For Hearing And Answering My Prayers Of Faith, Because Without Your Constant Hearing And Answering, All Would Be Lost! 

Thank You For Not Throwing Away This Clay! 

Thank You For The Sure Promises, The Daily Provision, The Perfect Peace That Passes Human Understanding, And The Knowledge That My Impossibles Are Possible In Your Mighty Hand! 

Thank You For Helping Me Not To Lean On My Own Understanding But To Give It All To You, The God Who Was, Is, And Forever Will Be! 

I Give You Me, My Worship, And My Willing Praise! 

I Love You With All That I Am, For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name That I Humbly Pray, And With A Lively Hope Plead! AMEN!!! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Guest Speaker

... And Our Guest Speaker Today ...! 

... What Guest Speaker!?! I Am The Speaker Today, Elder Plainer! 

Well, Pastor Prop, I Guess You Will Be Listening Like The Rest Of Us Today To A Much Needed Reality Check! 

The Most Quoted Book In The Bible Amongst The Brethren Here In This Congregation Is "Pastor Said!" 

According To Settled Knowledge And Belief, That Book Is Of Spurious Antecedents And Is Known To Elevate Another Jesus Upon A Prop Of Another Gospel! This Stops Today! 

Brethren, Our Speaker For This Moment Neither Needs Nor Desires An Introduction To Inflate His Head Or His Ego! Please Welcome Bro. Misfit Greedy Adopted! 

Happy Sabbath, Brethren! I'm Glad To Be With You! 

We Are A Peculiar People, So In The World, And In The Church, I'm A Misfit, A Square Peg-Round Hole Misfit Because I Choose To Accept And Believe That The Bible Is Christ's Complete Word To His People And Is Not To Be Touched-Up, Enhanced, Or Picked Apart By Anyone: Almighty God Is He Who Alone Is Wise, And All-Knowing, And As Such Makes No Mistakes! 

Secondly, I Am Called Greedy Because When I Finish Praying, I Always Say "Lord, Bless Again!" 

Shouldn't We As Believers Go After Our God Who Said, In Black And White, "Ask, And Ye Shall Receive!?!" 

This Same God, The True And Living God, Also Said, "Prove Me!" 

Shouldn't We Be Able To Say Or Write In Our Little Books, "He Did It Again! Thank You, Lord Jesus!?!

MUCH MURMURING IS HEARD! 

Thirdly, My Surname, Adopted, Makes Me Humble, My Heart Glad, And Keeps My Hope For Heaven High! 

Suddenly, A Voice Was Heard Saying: 

"I Am Adopted! I Am Happy, But I Am Still An Outsider! What Makes You, Well, Special!?!" 

I'm Glad You Asked! 

You Are Earthly Adopted On White Paper Covered In Black Ink, Sealed By The Earthly Judge Representing Fallen Man's Government, Which Gave You Into A Family Which Offered You Finite Love From A Flawed Heart! 

I Am Adopted Into The Family Of God! 

My Certificate Of Adoption Is The Scarred Flesh Of Our Lord Jesus! The Ink Is His Innocent Blood! 

I Have The Holy Spirit As My Comforter, Teacher, And Guide! 

I Have Personal Bodyguards Excelling In Strength! 

My Place Now Being Prepared Will Be In A Mansion In The Father's House In Glory Land Where Love, Peace, And Light Dwell! 

Do You Know What The Best Gift Is That I Shall Receive For One Called Adopted!?! 

No!!! Please Tell Us!!! 

Well, Brethren, Have You Ever Heard Of Any Adopted Child Being Like His Adopters!?! 

I Am Going To Be Like Jesus Because I Will See Him As He Is! 

I Here And Now Say With King David: 

"As For Me, I Will Behold Your Face In Righteousness! I Will Be Satisfied When I Awake With Your Likeness!" 

AMEN!!! 

Brethren, Dare To Boldly, Unapologetically Love And Stick To The Good Book ... As Written! 

An Opinionated, Abbreviated Rendering Of The Word Does Not Lead You To Christ, Who Is The Only One Who Is The Door, The Entrance, To The Father's House! 

Hallelujah!!! 

Praise The Lord!!! 

AMEN!!! 

Pastor Prop Hastily Left Through The Side Door! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Shepherd!

John 10:14 KJV 

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 

Glenda, Why Is Everyone Snickering At The New People!?! 

Wait Patiently, Oana, And All Will Be Revealed! 

A LITTLE BIT LATER ... 

Waaait! Did I Hear That Newbie Call Her ... Nahhhh ... Impossible!?! 

Nothing Is Wrong With Your Hearing, Oana! 

Lord, Make Peace! 

He Will, Dear Lady, He Will! 

Attention, Everyone, Let's Begin! 

Today, We're Talking  About Sin, Rest, Destruction, Peace, Choices, Self, And Decision-Making! In Short, Brethren, We're Going To Discuss Life! Isn't It Beautiful!?! 

That's Easy For You To Say, Sis. Hepher! 

There Was A Moment Of Stunned Silence, And Then The Class Started To Howl With Laughter! 

The Teacher's Face Didn't Even Wrinkle! 

When Order Had Been Restored And The Students Had Calmed Down, With A Perfectly Straight Face The Teacher Said: 

This Is What Happens When You Don't See The Whole Picture, Know The Whole Story, And Don't Know The Real Name, Full Name, Blessed Name Of Your Lord, God, Teacher, Leader, Feeder, Sustainer, Savior, Guide, Redeemer, And Forever Friend, The Final Judge Of All Mankind! 

When You Don't See The Whole Picture, You Don't Know That There's Something Vitally Important Missing, And You Denigrate The Name, That Glorious Name, Of Him Who Alone Saves! 

Jesus Christ Is Our Shepherd, The Good Shepherd ... And Shepherd Is My Name! I Lead You In His Name! 

Now, Because The Name Of The Shepherd Is Not Totally Visible, You, Me, We Live Life As We Please, Forgetting The One Above, He Whose Name Is The Name Above All Names! 

We Do Not See That Living Life Without Jesus Christ The Shepherd Leaves Us Living In Sin Which Leads Us To Sure Destruction! 

There Is No Peace And, Therefore, No Rest! 

Our Choices Are Made For Self ... Self-Satisfaction, Self-Aggrandizement, Self-Service! And, No Mistake ... Those Poor Choices Lead To Poorer Actions Which Lead To Self-Deceived Self-Wrought Self-Destruction! 

Making This Personal, The Mentality Called "Do-You!" Did You In, And You Are Done And Dusted! But ...! 

... I Know This One, Sis. Shepherd! 

Go Ahead, Homer! 

The Good Shepherd Does Not Leave Any Of His Sheep In The Wilderness Of Sin For The Roaring Lion To Devour! 

His Sheep Know His Voice And, When He Calls Their Name, They Answer Him Even With What They Consider To Be Their Last Breath! 

If They're Too Weak To Walk, He Will Carry Them To His Known Green Pastures Beside Still Waters! 

The Good Shepherd, By His Sweet Spirit Known Holy, Restores Their Soul As In Puts Life, Real Life, True Life, The Holy Life, His Life, In Them Because He Is The Life-Giver! 

Thank You, Homer! 

Beloved, Do Not Disregard The Shepherd, Our Shepherd, Our Rest, Our Peace! 

Choose Not To Be Lost And Lonely And Filled With Fear For Your Future! 

Choose Not To Be A Wondering, Wandering Star Seeking A Sun! 

Choose To Be A Child Of The Sun Of Righteousness Who Has Your Healing In His Wings! 

Choose To Be Safe In His Arms, And Sin Will Not Have Dominion Over You! 

There Is Character In A Name! Please, By Grace Through Faith, Let Your Name Have The Character Of Jesus Christ In It! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Eat The Whole Book!

God Is Love! 

Yes, And ...!?! 

Since God Is The Source And The Strength Of My Life, It Must Therefore Mean That Love Is The Source And The Strength Of My Life, And If I Don't Love, I Don't Know God And Have No Strength, And Thus, No Life! 

No God, No Life, No Love, No Light, And, Therefore, I Walk Boldly, Blindly, Falteringly, In Darkness! Deeeep Darkness! 

Darkness Is Synonymous With Death! So That Means That You, Me, We Walk In Death Now, And Into The Blackness Of Eternal Death Aka Eternal Separation From Eternal Life, Light, And Love, From The Way, From The Used-To-Be Open Door! 

Come On, Bro. Marquis! You Just Upped The Ante! You Always Do This! You Give Us Something To Work On, Or Work Out, And Then ... You Add On A Step Up To, Step Out From, Step Back From, Step Toward, Step Upon, Keep Step With, Or Step Away From! 

Yeahhh, That's True, Helena! He Always Wants More! 

You Could Really Keep Quiet And Indulge In A Hard Sit Down, Bittadis! You're Nothing But A Home Wrecker! 

You're Just Like Your Name! You Never Make Or Partake A Whole Meal To Get Its Full Benefits But Always Choose To Take A Bit Of This And A Bit Of That, And That Is Why You're Always Hungry, And Seldom Welcome At Anybody's Table Because You Say That People's Food Has No Taste, Lacks Depth, Has No Breadth, And Can't Bless A Bird Because It Ain't Bold! 

You Know, Kandle, When You Spell It Out Like That, You're Right About Bittadis, She Knows It, And You Missed A Spot! 

How So, Showitte!?! 

You Right, Bittadis Wrong, And We ... All ... Guilty! 

You Got Oil For That Squeaky Wheel!?! 

Sure, Do! Bible 101, 201, 301, 401, 501 ... And 1001: Eat The Whole Book! 

Stop Picking Rice! Stop Picking A Scripture From Here, A Scripture From There, Getting A Doctrine Here, A Doctrine There ...! ... Here A Moo, There A Moo, Everywhere A Moo Moo! Old Macdonald Had A Farm! 

Brethren, The Bible Ain't An Unkempt Farm With Puddles Of Wuhisdat, Broken Equipment Scattered, Workers Chewing The Fat Aka Doing Everything But Working, Different Animals Singing Their Ordained Song In A Bedlam Of Noise That Only Their Maker Can Decipher, The Bread Is Not Baked, The Field Not Turned, The Orchard Not Pruned, And The Purse To Let Aka The Farmer Broke ... And Drunk! 

Beloved, The Good Book Is Whole, Healthy, And Heavenly! It's A Treasure Store! 

Bittadis Is Right AND Wrong BECAUSE She's Always Doing The Butterfly, The Hummingbird ... But Without The Benefit Of Their Ingrained Knowledge! 

Our Beautiful Treasure Store Has An Inlaid Direction, An Instruction For All Who Believe On The Master, Our Maker! 

Isaiah 28:10 Speaks Truly! Line Upon Line, Here A Little, Precept Upon Precept! 

To One, It Is A Blessing! To Another, It's A Curse! 

For Those Who Love Our Lord - Just Like You Would Have In Times Past Play In A Jewelry Box Enjoying Running Your Hands Through Your Bits And Baubles - You Will Take Great Pleasure Running Your Fingers Through The Pages Of Holy Writ To Find The Pearl, The Coin, The Son, The Savior, The Door, Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Refuge, Strength, The Oil, The Path, The Way, The Shepherd, The King, Peace, Power, Provision, Endurance, Temperance, The Balm, The Robe, The Light, Love, Life ...! 

Do I Need To Say More, Seymour!?! Sayless!?! Tuhdoo!?! Comma!?! 

Dear Ones, We Must Pull Ourselves Together So That We May Pour Ourselves Out In The, Our, Search For Our Goodies From Almighty God Known Glorious! 

Lord, Pity Us, And Have Mercy Upon Us As We Humbly Place Our Trust In You! Guide Our Minds, And Teach Us Manners That Matter In Our Pursuit Of Those Things, Those Treasures, Which Will See Us Cross The Separating Line Between Grace And Glory! Feed Us With This Good Food, And Bless Us To Eat Substantially, And Cry Out, Call Out, Reach Out, And Hold Out Our Plate For More! 

Thank You, Lord, For Providing, Protecting, And Pursuing Us: Help Us To Pursue You In The Word, By Thought, Our Good Words To Others, And Kindly Deeds To Bless Others, In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, We Pray, And As Beggars Willing To Be Fed, Plead! We Love You, Lord! Have Mercy, And Bless Us Again, And Again! 

AMEN!!! 

Peace!
