VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: CONSEQUENCES!

KJV Ecclesiastes 5:6
6 Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?

The Concept Is Old And Is Ever New
And 
We Will All Live And Die By Its Outworking! 

Brethren, 

Should We Each Do An Internal Inventory Of Our Past Works Aka Deeds
We Will All Recognize And Remember That 
We Made Our Decisions To Act, Or Not
By Giving Vent To That "Glorious" Statement 
"Consequences Be Damned!" 

Today, I Ask Us All The Question: 

Should Not We Each Make Our Willing Decision 
For Eternal Life In Our Lord Christ 
By Saying 

"Our Consequences Are Blessed Of The Eternal God 
Though Apparently Executed By Published-Abroad 
Known-Ungodly And Accursed Men 
Inspired And Motivated By The Damned Devil!" 

Beloved, 

I Beseech Us All To Stand With The Brave 
Knowing That Jesus Christ Alone Saves 
And 
Raises His Blessed Dead To Live Forever 
In The Paradise Of God 
Where All Is Love, Joy, And Perfect Peace! 

Now Is Not The Time To Be Wafflers And Fence-Jockeys! 

Now Is The Time To Be Very Courageous 
And 
To Boldly Live Under The Abiding Love
The Gentle Gaze
And 
The Loving Touch Of Our Master's Hands! 

Jesus Christ Our Lord Reigns And Rules Over All! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Bad Choices ... Bad Results!







Bad Choices Equal Bad Results! 

Righteousness 
Is 
Like The Peacefully Cooing Dove 
And
Self-Righteousness 
Is 
Like The Splendidly-Showy Strutting, Screaming Peacock! 
Each Is A Chosen Way Of Life! 

Beloved, 

The Fact Of "Choice" States Clearly That 
You, Me, We Allowed Ourselves To Indulge Thought 
Which Speaks To Our Detailed Analysis Of 
The Pros And The Cons Of A Proposed Action! 

With This In Mind
It Is Clear That Whatever Decision We Thoughtfully Make
Whatever We Choose To Do
The Outcome, Good Or Bad
Cheap Or Expensive 
Or
Life Or Death
Is 
All On Our Own Head! 

Remember Your Creator-Given
Free-Will And Free Choice!

If We Take This Further
We Will Understand That "Choice" 
Is 
Why Not One Of Us 
Will Be Able To Stand Before The Judge Of All Flesh
The Savior Of Every Man
And Say

"I Didn't Know Right From Wrong!" 

Or 

"The Devil, My Brother, Sister, Neighbor
Mother, Father, Friend, Enemy
Made Me Do 'It!'" 

That Boat Ain't Gonna Float! 

We Are Called To Be Wise For Our Own Selves 
So Let Us Understand That 
We Have One Chance To Make The Right Choice 
To Avoid The "Why Me!?!" Consequence Of 
Departing From The Path Of Purity, Truth ... Righteousness! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Let Us Dare Today 
To Do The Deeds To Plant The Seeds Of The Fruit That 
We Really Desire To Eat! 

Choose To Do Right 
And 
Walk Right In Living Light! 

Peace!

YEAST AND SIN: Actions And Reactions Have Consequences!

 





A Lil' Bit O' Yeast Will Raise A Pound Of Flour 
But 
A Lil' Bit O' Sin Ain't No Biggie! 
Where Is The Logic In This Faulty Thinking!?! 

If Little Is Much When Almighty God Is In It
Does It Not Stand To Reason That 
A Little Sinning Is A Whole Lot Of Sinning 
Because 
Satan's Grubby Fingers Are All Up In It!?! 

Beloved, 

Strait And Narrow Way Walkers Are An Affront 
To Stray-Away And Keep Hope At Bay Talkers! 
Are You A Walker Or A Talker!?! 

Are You Good Yeast Pointing Others To The Fold Of Faith 
Or 
Are You Raising Cain 
And 
Encouraging Others To Do As They Please 
Because
Well, Why Not!?! 

Peace-Keepers Don't Make War 
An
Those Who Make War Against Truth 
Can Never Be At Peace Without Truth! 

As Committed Christians
We Must Tidy Our Thinking With The Word Of God 
In Order To Keep Our Thoughts Pure! 

We Must Taste Our Words 
To Ensure That They Are Properly Seasoned With Salt 
Before We Spit Them Out! 

Our Thoughts Impact Our Words 
And
Influence All Of Our Actions 
And
The Lives And Well-Being Of Those Around Us 
So Please Do Not Think That 
You Can "Do You" And You're Done! 

Actions Cause Reactions 
And
Both Have Consequences! 
Think About It! 

Pray For Peace 
And 
Let The Holy Spirit Raise You 
And 
Raise You Up To Glory!

HAPPY SABBATH + Obedience Is An Absolute!








Disobedience Always Equals Dishonor
Disaster
And 
Death 
So Don't Fool Yourself By Saying That "It" Was Only 
A Little Thing! 

Life Is An Absolute: 
You're Either Living Or You're Dead! 

Faith Is An Absolute: 
You Either Have Complete Faith ... Trust
Or You Are Indulging Total Doubt! 

Love Is An Absolute: 
You're Either Loving Or You're Hating! 

The Lights Are Either On Or Off: 
Light And Darkness Do Not Co-Exist

And

Lest We Forget To Remember
Obedience Is An Absolute: 
You, Me, We Cannot Do The Lord's Will 
And
Walk In Our Own Way 

And

That Is Why Our Lord Plainly Says: 

"If You Love Me
Keep My Commandments!" 

He Also Says To All The King Saul's Of This Earth: 

"To Obey Is Better Than To Sacrifice!" 

Because

DISobedience Always Results In A Debit
A Sacrifice
A Charge Against Us
Body, Mind, And Spirit! 

Worse Still, Disobedience 
Is 
An Aphrodisiac Which Sharpens The Taste Buds 
For Some "Tasty" Little Disobedience Treat
And 
A Little Bigger Plate Of Disobedience
And Then 
All-Day, Every Day, Bold Partaking Of
The All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Of Disobedience! 

Be Ye Warned ...

Repentance Brings Ready Forgiveness 
But
The Consequences For Disobedience Remain! 

Beloved, 

By Almighty God's Great And Glorious Grace
Please Choose To Nip
Neuter
Maroon
And 
Kill Disobedience With The Two-Edged Sword 
Aka "Thus Saith The Lord!" 
Aka "It Is Written!" 
It Worked For Our Lord Jesus Christ 
So Let It Work For You Now, Today! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer For When Hearts Are Burdened 2





 




PRAYER:

Father, Forgive Me!
I Have Gone From Pillar To Post
Seeking A Home For My Heart
Forgetting
Perhaps Not Even Realizing That
My Heart Is Your Home!

Open My Eyes, Lord, And Help Me To See 
Those Fair And Holy Glimpses Of Truth That
You Have Waiting For And Available To Me
In The Volume Of That Book That 
Tells Me Of You And Your Holy Love For Me ... Personally!

Oh, How Often, Dear Father
Has My Heart Been Troubled Within Me
At My Seeming Lack Of Growth
At The Wayward Paths Being Used
By The Children Of Faith
At The Unholy Alliances, Even Confederacies, Being Formed
Between The Children Of The Day
And
The Denizens Of The Night
And
I Cringe!

You Promised In The Living Word
That Not One Jot Or One Tittle
A Dot Or A Dash In The Word Would Fail
Until All Be Fulfilled!
I Know That You Cannot Lie
So I Put My Trust In You
To Accomplish All You Word
For You Have Promised That 
It Shall Not Return Unto You Void, Empty
But Shall Do All That You Ordain!

Father, 
Remember Me, In Mercy, I Beseech You!
As King Solomon Said:
I Am But A Child
Not Knowing How To Go Out
Or To Come In!
Please Grant Unto Me 
Your Wisdom And Understanding
To Use Your Knowledge Aright!

You Promised Not To Upbraid Me
For Asking For Wisdom:
I, In The Working Faith Gifted To Me
Choose To Accept Your Word
As Written And Preserved! 
I Trust You! 
I Am Trusting You! 
Please Help Me To Trust You
Always And In All Ways! 

Please Help Me To Hide Your Word Within My Heart!
Please Help Me To Know My End
The Length Of My Days
So That I Will Know How Frail I Am
And Will Not Sin Against Thee Again!

Father, 
I And My People
Have Broken All Ten Of Your Commandments
Wittingly
Unwisely
Boldly
Even Arrogantly
Uncaring That Actions Have Consequences
Unmindful Of The Reality That
Even When We Come To Our Senses
And Repent Of Our Known Sin
And You Forgive Us Our Sin
And Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness
That The Consequence 
The Fall Out Remains
The Unintended Consequence Stands
Reminding Us That There Is No Profit
In Bold Sin And Defiant Disobedience! 
Please Help Us To Humble Ourselves
So That You Will Lift Us Up
At The Time Appointed! 

Draw Me Nearer, Lord! 
Keep Me Safe By Your Dear Side! 
Open My Eyes, Lord
To See You And Emulate You
In The Beauty Of Holiness! 

Father, I Would See Jesus! 
I Will Behold His Face In Righteousness! 
I Will Be Satisfied When I Awake With His Likeness:
I Know That My Redeemer Lives
And
That He Is Interceding For Me! 
Please Help Me To Value Myself
At The Price That Was Paid To Grant Me
Your Free-To-All Salvation! 
Save Me, Lord! 
Keep Me Rooted And Grounded
Attached To The Rock That Fills The Whole Earth
In Jesus Christ's Holy And Matchless Name 
I Humbly Pray, And In Need, Plead! 
I Love You, Lord
Please Come For Us Soon! 
AMEN!!!

HAPPY SABBATH + There Is No Default Good Position!





Okay, People!
Settle Down!
We Have Decisions To Make:
Drink The Water Or Drink The Cool-Aid!

Go To The Rock Or Go To Rock!

Eat Flour Cakes Or Eat The Bread Of Life!

Exist
Or Have An Abundant Life!

Run With Satan
Or Walk With Christ The Lord!

These Are All Simple!
Nothing To Make Your Tremble!
Get The Facts!
Weight Your Options!
Make Your Decision
And
Live With The Consequences!
Your Answer  ... Your Decision
 Has Eternal Implications!

Remember ...

There Is Nothing 
And 
No One
- Spiritual Or Mortal -
That Can Make Your Decision For You
Or Can Force You To Make Your Decision
Based On Their Desire!

Do You Understand!?!

Yes, But ...!

First Mistake!

But, But ...!

Second Mistake!

I Give Up ...!

Third Mistake!

Awww, Come On!
This Is Not Fair!

Neither Is Life!
Get With The Program!
Jesus Christ 
Is
Love, Light And Life!
Satan 
Is 
Darkness, Death And Destruction!

With Christ, There Is The Strait And Narrow Way!
With Satan, There Is Broadway And Own Way!

With Christ, The World Will Hate You
And
Dismiss And Ill-Treat You!
With Satan
You Are The World!

With Christ, Heaven Awaits The Faithful!
With Satan, Damnation Awaits The Faithless!

With Christ, Faith Is The Victory
And
We Have Victory Over Sin, Self And Satan
And
We Carry Christ In Us
The Certain Hope Of The Glorious Tomorrow
With All The Saints And The Angels
At The End Of Our Mortal Life's Journey!

With Satan
Doubt And Disbelief Are Daily Deliveries
And
There Is No Hope When One Comes
To The End Of This Life's Journey!

I Ask You, Again:
Do You Understand!?!

Yes, I Do!
Now, May I Ask A "But" Question!?!

You Certainly May!

But Why Do We Have To Make A Decision!?!
Almighty God Is Good!
Why Can't He Save Us Just As We Are!?!

Bradley, I Am Certain That You Know The Answer
To That Cutting Question!

Yes, Sir!

Would You Care To Share With The Rest Of Us!?!

Sure!
Let Me Answer The Question With A Question:

Does A Wife Know That She Is A Wife
Without The Public Declaration Being Made!?!

Do You Have A Job At A Corporation

Unless You Sign The Contract Saying
You Are Hired, Your Job Title, Your Salary, Etc..!?!

Can You Drive A Vehicle Off The Lot

Without Displaying Your Driver's License
And Having The Proof Of Purchase
And The Keys For The Particular Vehicle!?!

Brethren,

Remember This Statement Made By General Moses:

Who Is On The Lord's Side

Let Him Come To Me!

Remember This Statement Made By General Joshua:

As For Me And My House
We Will Serve The Lord!

Remember These Statement Made By King David:

The Heaven's Declare The Glory Of God
And The Firmament Sheweth His Handiwork!


I Waited For The Lord

And He Inclined Unto Me!


The Lord Is My Shepherd

I Shall Not Want!


Thy Word Is A Lamp Unto My Feet

And a Light Unto My Path!


And, Then, There Is King Solomon:

Let Us Hear The Conclusion Of The Whole Matter:

Fear God, And Keep His Commandments
For God Shall Bring Every Work Into Judgment
With Every Secret Thing
Whether It Be, Or Whether It Be Evil!

The Bottom Line, Therefore
Is
Declare Your Hand!
State Your Allegiance!
Recognize Who Has The Final Say!
Stand Up For Your Champion!

And

In Your Assigned Lot
At The Great Day Stand!

By The Way

No Declaration Is A Declaration
Against
The True And Living God!

There Is No Default Good Position!

You Must State Clearly
- To The Court Of Heaven -
Who Has Your Heart
Who Holds Your Hand!
Who Holds Your Heart
Who Has Your Hand!

Thank You!

Thank You, Bradley!

Brethren, 

Not To Trivialize The Matter
But
To Prove The Point
When You Join A Club, A Sports Team
An Association, A Church Group
You Are Quick To Let The Whole World Know
To Whom 
And 
With Whom You Belong
And
You Are Exceedingly Vocal About It!

Does Not The Lord Of Life Deserve The Same
And
Better!?!

Words Have Weight!


Are You A Builder Or A Destroyer!?!

Those Who Live In The Land Find-Fault
Specialize ... In The Art Of Fault Find
And
They Often Go To The Extent Asinine
As They Seek To Bring Others To The Thought
Like-Mind!
They Raise Up And They Put Down Deads!

The Story Is Told Of
Look N.U. Will-Find
Who Was So Pleased With Himself 
When He Thought To Foment Anarchy
And
Instigate A Palace Coup
By Looking At The King Man
With Jaundiced Eye ... Never Clear
And
Thought Not Of The Possible Consequences
If
The Challenge Was Found Without Elevate-Me Air!

Be Very, Very, Careful ...

A Challenge Without Airlift Is A Challenge ... Lost!
A Fault Found With No Foundation
Will
The Fault-Finder Surely Cost
And
All Who Seek To Enjoin War
- Without Substance -
Against Another
Shall Surely Find Himself Answering
Charges Like No Other!

The Truth Of The Matter Is ...

For Every Lawless Word That A Man Utters
He Will Be Called To Give An Accounting For
At The Judgment Bar Of The Eternal God
And
Brother, Sister, Neighbor, Friend
The "I Didn't Know Excuse!"
Is 
One That Shall Surely
- By The Righteous Judge -
Be Summarily Refused!
It Doesn't Work So Don't This Excuse Use!

Regrets! I've Had A Few ...

There Are Many Alive
Who Wish They Could Recall Their Words
When ... Like The Spent Arrow
The Previously Lived Experience
And
The Missed Opportunity
They Seek To Undo
What Cannot Be Undone! 

Words Pass From Time Into Eternity! 

Even If, If, If, You Walk The Same Road
At The Same Time Of Day
Every Day For A Week
You Will Never Pass The Same Way Twice
And, Likewise
Unkind Words
Evil Actions
And
Selfish Attitudes Of The Day Gone
Cannot Be Reversed!
Cannot Be Undone!

What Are You Eating!?!
What's Eating You!?! ...

Thought ... Word ... Deed! 
Upon What Do You Your Purchased Soul Feed!?!
Do You Have The Meek And Gentle Spirit Of The Master
- Against Which There Is No Law -
Or
Do You Find Pleasure
In Cultivating Mortal Carnal Flaws!?! 


Looking Inward Works Best
When One Is Cleaning
The Spiritual House!
Get Rid Of The Old Carnal Spirit Useless
And
Invite In The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Which Will Be Bring You
Before The Lord Of Life
The King Of Love
Undefiled And Faultless!

Don't Ever Apologize For Speaking The Eternal God's Truth!

  • Never Apologize For Speaking The Truth!
  • Never Apologize For Speaking The Truth Of Almighty God's Living Word!
  • Never Apologize For Believing That The Word Of Almighty God Is True!
  • Never Apologize For Loving The Lord Jesus Christ!
  • Never Apologize For Serving The Lord Jesus Christ ... Faithfully!
  • Never Deny Truth To Keep A "Friend!"
  • Never Deny Truth To Avoid An Enemy!


We Are Called To Serve 
The Living God
In Spirit
AND
In Truth!

If We Take The Edge Off The Truth
The Truth Becomes A Lie!
If Truth Is Lie
Then For What Purpose
Did Jesus Christ The Righteous Die?!

Since Truth Is Truth
Without Need Of Spin Color Or Polish
For What Purpose Do You
Can You
Would You
Say
Satan's Known-Bold Lie We Nourish?!

I Implore You ...

Please Do Not Be Mean 
When You Speak The Truth

Because 
It Serves No Just Purpose!
Just Ask The Living God For Grace
AND
Exercise Your Daily Faith
AND
Let Truth
- Humbly Spoken -
Find
Its True Landing Place!


Deliver The Message
Called
Known-Truth

AND
Leave ... The Consequences
To The Eternal God!

Handle Your Business!
- No Anger!
- No Doubt!
- No Fear!
BUT
With Just Faith
Because
Jesus Christ Already Took Care Of
Vile Satan
The Father Of Lies
That Wannabe God
AND
Murdering Fraud!
Damnation Morning Is Fast Approaching!
That Will Be The Forever-End Of
His Destroying Mankind For Kicks, Day!


The Liar Needs A "Good Memory"
Which, Assuredly
Always, Always, Fails!

This Is Not So
For
The Truth Speaker
Who Holds
To Almighty God's Truth
The Known Holy Grail!

Lift Up Truth
Even As You Remember That
They Lifted Up The Son Of Man
The Son Of God
Our Savior Jesus The Christ
But
The Murder That The Vile One
Caused
To Be Committed
Could Not Destroy
The King Of Love
The God Of Creation
The Alpha
The Omega
The Beginning
The End
The One God
The God Eternal
The Lord Of Life
The Master Of The Universe
The One Who
Forever
Ends
The Life Of Strife!

Those Who Die In Christ
Shall Live With Christ!

**--**--**--**

The Free Grace Called Faith
IS
Our Shield!
Wield The Shield!
Do Truth!
And
Do Not Ever, Ever, Ever
To The Liarman ... Yield!

Jesus Christ
Saves
Those For Whom
- With His Innocent Life -
He Willingly ... Paid!
