INSTANT SANCTIFICATION?!

There Is No Such Thing As Instant Sanctification!
Sanctification Is A Work That Continues
As Long As Life Shall Last!
It Does Not Consist Of Strong Emotion
Nor Is It Proved 
- Nor Disproved -
By Whether We Laugh Or Cry!

Many Walk Around Crying:

The Lord!
The Lord Wholly Sanctified Me! 
We Walk And We Talk
And I ...
I Am Wholly Holy!


BUT ...

They Live Like Devils
Spreading A Miasma All Around
Setting On Edge The Teeth Of Those 
Trying
Trying Trying
Not To Cause God 
At Them Frown!

Why Do They Do It?!
What Are They Trying To Prove?!
Who Are They Impressing?!
Don't They Realize That They Have Much To Lose?!

Don't They Honestly Read The Good Book?
Do They Not Grasp The Word ...

Work Out Your Own Soul's Salvation
With Fear And Trembling!
Work For Night Is Coming When No Man Can Work!
Faith Without Work Is ... Dead!
Christ Is Coming To Reward Every Man According To His ... Work!
Man Is Sanctified By God's Truth!
Faith Comes By Hearing!?

The Word Of God
ISThe Word Of Truth
AND
If The Word Of Truth In Us Works
Should Not We Cooperate With The Working Word
Via The Working Of The Holy Spirit
By Working To Change Bad Character Traits
Into Christ-Like Traits
So That He Who Started The Good Work In Us
May Finish It
In The Day Of God Almighty?!

The Narrow Way To Sure Salvation
For
Whosoever Will
Is
Paved With Sweat Equity
Binding
The Bricks Of Believing Effort
Into 
The Groove Of Steadfast Faith
Aided 
By Unwavering Trust
Cheered 
By True Repentance And Complete Confession
Hoisted 
By Free Mercy
On 
The Back Of Available Grace
Holding 
Complete Forgiveness!

There Are No Slackers Aka Loafers
Admitted Into Heaven
- On A Free Pass -
Just Because They
- As Fools -
Thought It Too Much Work
To Much Trouble
To Lift Up The Spoon Full Of Truth 
To Their Own Mouth
To Stave Off Soul Starvation!

There Will Be None In Heaven
Who Did Not Tend The Good Seed Sown In Them
AND
Patiently Labor
In The Wait Time
For
A Bountiful Harvest!

How Is
Your Sanctification
Being Worked Out?!

WISDOM: KNOW What You ... GROW!



WHATEVER you plant will ... grow!
You will not know where it will go
But you can be assured - God knows
Be careful what you sow.

I planted me a little - and rare - seed
I watered it - it grew
It picked up speed
And before I knew it
It had grown leaves
And beautiful buds of its own ... with seeds.

The birds of the air
Took up seats in the leaf chairs
They picked on the seeds - it was their caviar
And before I knew it
My grand-seeds were deposited - near and far.

One day, I said a verse!
It was really a curse!
I thought nothing of it!
I'd often repeated it!
It was just words
Said in anger and oft in jest!
I thought nothing of It ... until I heard it used to ... "bless!?"

I uttered a prayer!
A beautiful prayer!
Calling on Jesus
To fix Me and to undo
The damage I caused by my callous mien!
He said to Me:
"Once done, Sin cannot be undone."

I learned a hard lesson on that day!
Oh, how I repented! - I still had to pay!
Forgiveness is sweet!
Remembrance is bitter - sharp knives cut swift and clean and deep!

I sought from then
To carefully sow
Seeds of Gladness
Hope, Love, and to show
All that behold My Garden - how it grows
That good seed can't produce corrupt fruit
No, that does not flow!
Good seed - Good Fruit
Good fruit - Good seed ... and so it goes!

You can't plant Guinea Corn and from it Indian Corn reap!
What goes in comes out!
Do I need to repeat?

Jesus IN! = Jesus OUT!
Satan IN! = Satan OUT!
Garbage IN! = Garbage OUT!

The Problem ... again
The Solution ... again
Know what You Sow!
It Grows!
