From Sin To Salvation: Making The Right-Turn Off Self!


Present Life Was Walking On The King's Highway!
He Had Stepped Off The Road To Destruction
And
Had Made The Right Turn Off Self
And
Jumped Over That Pleasant Brook Called Selfish Desire
And
Was Seriously Seeking The Savior!
He Is Climbing Higher And Higher!

Saved By Grace Through Faith 
Is 
His New Companion
But
Past Life
- In Alligator Fashion -
Is Dogging His Steps!

Now ...

If You Are A Bible-Reading Christian
It Has To Be Obvious To You That
Accuser Of The Brethren's Sticky Fingers
Are All Over Past Life's Actions!
He is Acting Like A Read Cad!

Present Life Had Not Wanted To Give Up Past Life
Because
He Had Been Such A Comfortable
Known
Easy-Going Quantity!
What You Saw Was, Well, What You Saw!

Past Life Was Handsome In A Funny Way With
A Cleft In His Chin
And
Boasting A Firm, Square, Jaw!

Past Life Was - Is - A Slob
A Sloth
A Sinner Bold With Eyes Squinty
Heart Cold
Legs Crooked
And
Ears Out Of Tune!
He Laughed Like A Loon!
He Could Make Music With Two Silver Spoons!

Past Life Had Lost His Pick
When Present Life Had Met
Old ... Always New ... Truth For The Ages!

Truth For The Ages ... 

What Can I Say About Truth For The Ages!?!
Truth For The Ages Just ... Is!
He Doesn't Change!
Won't Play Dress-up!
Stands Firm Against The Wiles Of The Devil!
Can't Be Coerced!
Won't Be Threatened!
Will Not Run!
Won't Turn Aside To Fables!
Is Not A Partner With Sin
And
Is Always At War With Deceit! 

He's A Straight Arrow 
Positioned Always At The Draw!
He Has No Flaws
And
Wisdom Is Ever At His Right Side!
He Offers Everyone Going To Heaven
A Freed-From-Sin Ride!

The Ride Is Not Always Comfortable
But
Arrival At The Posted Destination Is Sure 
And
The Way Is Secure!

Severed Ties ...

From The Time Past Life Realized That
Truth For The Ages Was Wooing Present Life
He Made An Emergency Call To His Family
Those Agents Of King Fraud
The Adversary Of The Lord Christ
And
The Pretender To The Throne Of The Holy God!

Connections ...

The First One To Answer The Call To Arms Was
Debilitating Doubt
The Darling Of Damnation
She Who Made Lot's Wife Look Back
She Who Made Eve With A Serpent Talk Back
She Who Made Cain Choose To Obey God According To Self
She Who Makes The Unwise Place The Word Of God
On The Out Of Sight Shelf!

I Should Let You Know That
Once Debilitating Doubt 
Is 
In The Game
- To All Intents And Purposes -
De Dog Dun Dead!
Game Ovah!
Put De Sod Pun De Duppy!
He Ain't Coming Back!

The Harpies NOT The Harpists ...

The Legion Of Doom Was Rejoicing
Because
A Child Newly Lost To Them Was Soon Returning Home
Until ...
Persevering Faith Of Jacob
Unyielding Persistence Of Elijah
Love Of God Abides
Available Grace
Free Mercy
Unwavering Trust
Forgiveness For Confessed Sin
Godly Sorrow
And
Godly Fear
Wrapped Their Gentle, Loving, Arms
- Strong In The Lord Christ -
Around Present Life!

The Lion, Raging, Roared!
Roared!ROARED!

Oh, For A Faith That 
Will Not Shrink ...

Present Life Was Shaking But Resolute!
Black Tar Balls Came Flying
AndSerpentine Darts Started Stinging!

Soon Enough ...

"The King Of Love My Shepherd Is!"
Singing In Present Life's Voice
Is Heard!

Old Deads Were Being Raised Up!
That Is That
Past Life Was Being Thrown Up In Present  Life's Face
And
This Continued Unabated
Supposedly Creating Doubt In Present Life
Until Faith Is The Victory That Overcomes The World
Was Seen Holding His Hands
Patting His Back
Kissing His Cheek And His Forehead
And
Feeding The Soul Of Present Life!

He Cried Out ...

Heaven With Jesus Christ Is My Soul's Sole Goal!
I Can't Fix My Past Life
But Jesus Christ Can!
I've Given Jesus My Confession
And I've Uttered My Heartfelt Repentance
And My Joy In Jesus Is Full
Because
It Can't Be Begged Bought Bartered Nor Sold!

My Present Life Is In My Hand!
I Have Choices!
I Have Chances!
I Have Hard, Unpopular, Decisions To Make
And I Will Tell You, Fellow Travellers, That
By God's Great Grace
With Strength For My Journey
And Courage For My Way To Take
The Holy Spirit Of The Living God
Will Help Me 
The Right Decisions To Conscientiously Make!

The Past Is In God's Hands!
The Present Is In My Hands
And
- By Invitation Issued To Him
By My Will Free -
The Heart Of My Maker
My Lord, God And King
And
Not Some Damned-For-Eternity Fake
Who Is A Smooth Operator
And
The Lake Of Fire Undertaker!

Yesterday Is The Past: I Can't Go Back!
I Won't Look Back!
Tomorrow Is Not Promised
But I Shall Live With Hope!
Today ... The Present ... Is A Gift
And
With The Lord Of Life Guiding My Path
I Shall On, In ... With
The Rock Of Ages Live!

I Looked Inward ... Rottenness!
I Looked Around ... Urge To Sin!
I Looked Up ... Heard The Call To Salvation
And
By Gentle Persuasion
Holy Ministration
Heavenly Food
Undying Love
Blessed Hope
And
The Beloved Truth For The Ages
I Stand Before Almighty God
Convicted Of Sin
Convinced Of Righteousness
From The Ways Of The World Turned AwayHaving Godly Sorrow For My Own Sin
Holding The Lord Of Glory In Godly Fear
And
Marching Militantly To Realm Zion
Knowing That With
The Persevering Faith Of Jacob
The Unyielding Persistence Of Elijah
The Integrity Of Joseph
And
The Servant's Attitude Of Jesus The Lord Christ
I Shall Be The Over-Comer
In Resisting The Demonic Device!
I Shall Live The Eternal Life!

The Way Home To Glory Is Not Easy!
The Fight For Life Is Not Short!
Satan Is Ever My Adversary
And
Jesus Is The King In My Heart
And
By His Grace
Through My Working Faith
I Shall From Henceforth
From His Riven-For-Me Side
Never, Ever, Depart!
My Plowing Is Not In The Dark!

THE FIGHT: Higher Up AND Better Off!




The Slaves Of The Potty Stop
Are Victims!
They Are Victims Of Lord Lie
Who Tells Them
That They Can Humble Jesus
AND

Make The Heavenly Father Cry!

It Is Like This ...

Lord Lie Is The Liar Supreme
AND 

A Spirit Most Foul
Who Thrives On Dissent And Dastardity
AND
Greed And Fermented Jealousy
Are The Prized
Secret-Sauce Ingredients
For His Hell And Damnation Velvet
Icecream Sandwich Truffle Pie!
That Pie Is Legendary!

You See ...

Lord Lie
- Apparently -
Gets Away With Murder
AND
Causing Mayhem And Mutiny
Misery Madness
AND
Malignity
Obfuscation
Orneriness
Pinocchio Olfactory Stimulation
AND
Truth Colorized And Spun
For
Upside Down
Back To Front
Regurgitation!
He Lives What He Churns
AND
Prizes Those
Who At His Feet Avidly Learn!

Lord Lie Is Blight
On Man's Butt
AND
There Is No Human
- In His Own Strength -
Who Can This Benighting Marvel
Come Close
To Hoping To Fight
Much Less For The Win!

Now ...

In The Town Of Tempest Tossed
Are Two Agents
One For Boss Blight
AND
The Other For
Survived D. Cross!

You Should Know That
Boss Blight Is The Avid Sinner
The Reprobate
Of The Fame Of
"I Write The Songs!"

AND

Survived D. Cross
Is The Savior
The Great I Am
The Good Shepherd
The Author 
The Finisher Of The Blessed Assurance
Who Provides
Faith Mercy
Grace Love
Hope Forgiveness
AND
A Home In Bright Mansions
On The Street Called
Eternity Long!

Survive D. Cross' Other Name Is Shiloh
AND
He Gives To Whosoever Wants Its
Rest
AND
Of Perfect Peace
A Piece!

Lord Lie
Aka Boss Blight
Hates Shiloh
AND
All Who Would See Him
At The Great Day
In Peace!

Oh, By The Way ...

Boss Blight's Registered
AND
Remunerated Agent
Is None Other Than
Higher Up!

Working For Survived D. Cross
Aka Shiloh
Is
Better Off The Faithful
Who Works For Free
Because Of Love
AND
The Hope Of The Promise
To Be Futurely Fulfilled!

Higher Up Considers Better Off
No Better Than An Errant Dog Turd
AND
Was Always Stepping Over Him
If You Know What I Mean!

Better Off Is
Well, Better Off
Because
He Has Inherited The Promise
AND
He Knows How
- Not When -
His Story
AND
Lord Lie's "Glory Run"
Will End
AND
Because He Has
A Piece Of Peace's Peace
AND
Trusts Shiloh
For Everlasting Relief
He Can Afford To Take
The Petty Insults
The Vile Barbs
The Fiery Darts Of The Wicked
AND
Still Rest
Peacefully
When Comes The Night!
Sleep With Him Does Not Ever Fight!

For Higher Up, It Ain't So!
He Counts Cash
Counts Coup
Considers Crime
Casts Aspersions
Divides Brethren
Destroys Deliberately
AND
Wanting To Be

!THE WINNER!

Sets About Trying
To Buy The Most Toys!
His Day Is Not Complete
Unless And Until
He Breaks Somebody's Will
AND
Takes Away Their Till!

Higher Up
Is A Willing Wilful Wasteful
Wiseacre Sinner
AND
Proud Of It
Thank You Very Much!
He Can't Spell
Pray
BUT
He Was Spell Prey
Backwards and Forward!
Interesting Thing Indeed!

Higher Up
Is A Grinch
A Grabbit
A Gottit
A Gotcha
A Gainsayer
AND
A Grandstander
AND
A Fiercely Proficient Liar
AND
A Leech On The Distaff Side!
He Gets Something For Nothing
For He Is The Go-To Consultant For Lord Lie
AND
Teaches Ready Learners
How To Riotously Wheel And Steal
AND
How To Always Close A Deal!
He Is The Break Down Merchant!

As We All Know ...

All Good Things
Must Come To An End
AND
On The Sure Day
Higher Up
Thought To Send
Better Off
To His Appointed By Higher Up
End!

Things Didn't Work Out As Planned
AND
Better Off Didn't End Up Where
Higher Up Thought
That He Should Land
Proving
- Beyond All Doubt -
That Deals With The Devil
Have No
For-The-Soul's-Good
Pay Out
For
A Sinner-Dug Grave
For A Loser-Saint
Is A Sinner-Dug Grave
For The Same Grave-Digger-Sinner
AND
The Saint Called Loser
Is The Winner
AND
The Sinner Called Winner
Is The Sure Loser!

We Would Do Well To Remember That ...

Devils Are Damned
For
The Lord God Is In Command
So
Be Careful
For Higher Up - In Sin
Is Never Better Off
For
Here Comes The King
Who Does Of His Children
No Forsaking!

Higher Up
Can't Be
Better Off
When All He Does
Is
The Ways Of Truth And Right
Kiss Off!

You, Personally
Will Be The One
Better Off
IF
You
The Ways Of Sin And Darkness
Cast Off!

HAPPY SABBATH + PRAYER: I'd Rather Be A Plant ...!







I'd Rather Be A Plant
In The Garden Of God
Than To Be A Dried Flower
In The Great Temples Of Man Flawed!
I Rather Be Pruned
By The Hand Of The Living God Of Love
Than To Be Polished
By The Hand Of The Devil In Brilliant White Gloves!

Pity Us, Father
Who Run To Earthly Prosperity!
Pity Us, Father
Who Believe That
Running Wild Is Freedom
From Jesus Christ's Loving Captivity!
Have Mercy On Us
Who To The Wilderness Run
Seeking The Lightness
Of Christ's Holy Face So Divine For A Moment Of Fun!

Lord, Pity Us
Who Will Not Your Preserved Word Read
Preferring Copyrighted Bibles
That Cater To Man's Every Lust-Confirming Felt Need!
Help Us, Dear Lord
To Set Aside Self
And
Seek After Almighty God
Who Offers Us Eternal Life
As A Heavenly Reward!

Lord, Help Us To Keep Our Eyes Free
Of Motes And Beams!
Keep Our Hands Out Of Sin
And
Render Them Upright And Clean!
Please Keep Us Living Right
So That Our Feet Don't Run To Mischief Today
And
Keep Our Hearts Willing
To Do Whatever You Say!

Please Keep Our Ears Open
Ever Able To Hear The Spirit's Call!
Keep Our Minds Sheltered
So That We Won't For
The Rhetoric Of Satan Dressed As Man Fall
And
Please Help Us To Hold Up
The Shield Of Christ's Faith
So That The Fiery Darts Of The Devil
Won't Find On Our Weak Bodies
An Available Dwelling Place!

Lord, Please Help Us
In You
Without Worldly Fear To Stand
For We Desire 
By Your Grace
To Be Borne Away To Glory Land
Surrounded
By The Happy Angel Band!

Oh, Lord, Let All Be Well ... With Our Souls
In Jesus' Holy Name
For We Do Love You!
Thank You For Hearing And Answering Our Prayers!
AMEN.
