Bow The Knee





 




When We Were Children 
And
For Whatever Reason 
We Had Been Caused To Suffer A Chastisement 
And
Showed Our Grand Displeasure At 
"The Injustice Of It All!" 
The Elders Had The Perfect Riposte For Us:

"Fix Your Face
Or I Will Fix It For You!"

Oh, The Horror! 

Now Can You Imagine That We ... Mere Mortals
Have The Temerity To Want To Tell Our Maker
Lord, God, King 
And
Judge 
To Fix His Face When He Has Just Cause 
To Chastise Us For Our Base Folly!?! 

Beloved, 

We Are A Hard-Headed People 
Who Dare To Tempt The Lord! 

Have You Considered What Would Happen To Us 
If 
The Lord Of Life Caused Us To Feel 
The Dread Effects Of His Hot Displeasure!?! 

There Is Nothing That Our Lord Christ Does That 
Is 
Done In Vain! 

The Lord Chastises His Children 
And
If For Some Strange Reason 
You Are Walking Wild And Unfettered
You May Want To Check Your Birth Certificate 
Because 
The Lord Chastises Those Whom He Loves
Aka His Children! 

No Chastisement 
Means You're A Bastard Child 
And
As Such That Means That 
You Have No Inheritance 
Or Right To An Inheritance 
With The Family Of God! 

Dear Ones, 

We Owe The Lord Everything 
So Let Us Be Wise 
And
Permit The Lord Christ To Direct Our Paths!

We Did Not Make Ourselves
And
We Cannot Save Ourselves! 

Humble Pie Tastes Better Than Dirty Pudding! 
Bow The Knee! 

Peace!

HERITAGE AND INHERITANCE: Self Has A Predicament!


 Image result for Isaiah 54:14


... Righteousness Does Not Indulge Self!

Look At The Tangle Around Us:
Luxury And Idleness
Activity And Usefulness
Sin, Self, And Self-Confidence!

It's A Tangle Because
Self Uses Sin To Get Luxury
To Indulge In Idleness
Instead Of Being Active And Useful
In The Service Of The Lord Christ!

As All Of Us Should Already Know
Self Is Selfish
And
A Known-Bold Sinner
With A Myriad Of Fair-Weather Friends
Chief Amongst Them Being None Other Than
Self-Confidence
Who, I Should Inform You
Signed A Suicide Pact With That Law-Breaker, Sin
That Instigator Of Death And Destruction
Actually Destruction
Character Destruction
Then Physical Destruction
Then, If Unchecked, Death
Spiritual Death
Physical Death
And
Obviously Eternal Death
Which Is Separation From The Living God!

Self-Confidence
Is 
A Dense Con Job!

Self-Confidence
Does Not Encourage A Person
To Trust In The Unfailing
Goodness And Grace
Of The Eternal God!

Self Is A Satanic Influence
Because
Self Considers Itself A God
To Be Worshiped, Glorified
Honored, Praised!

Brethren, 

It's All A Fraud!

Self Is A False God
Because
Self Must Be Catered To
Because
Self Does Not Serve
Self Does Not Give
Self Loves Self
So Self, Unchecked
Eventually Destroys ... Even Kills ... Its Host
Even Though Killing The Host
Causes Wicked Self's Death!

Self Is The Unholy Ghost!

Truth Be Told
That ... In A Nutshell
Is What Is Called A Real Predicament!

The Spirit Of The Living, Holy, God
Is The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Our Teacher And Our Guide!

There Is No One With The Heritage Of 
The True Christian
Who Is Called Selfish
Or Who Indulges Self!

Try Telling That To You Know Who!

I Am Not Talking To Any Who Knows You!
I Am Talking To Us
Me And All Of You Bright Sparks
Who Claim To Have The Oil!
How About Lighting Some Candles
Some Lamps, Some Lanterns
All About This Town!

Yeah! 
Let's Put Some Needed Holy Light Of God's Truth
In This Bogged-Down By Sin Atmosphere! 

Take Heed, Beloved ... 

Because Of Heritage
And 
For Inheritance
The People Of Almighty God Are To Live For Truth 
And 
In Righteousness 
Despising The Carnal Ways Of The World That 
Always Lead To Destruction! 

We, As Believers, Cannot Be Half & Half
Or One-Percent Milk-Christians! 
We Are Either All-In Or All-Out For Christ 
No Matter Who Or What Is Popular Or Provocative! 

A Double-Minded Man
Is Unstable In All Of His Ways
And Cannot Be Trusted!

Righteousness Edifies And Exalts 
And 
Sin Denigrates ...!

... And Decimates!

Indeed!

Never Forget That Your Sin
Impacts You
And Impacts Others
Who Are Watching What You Do
And Often Base Their Life's Decisions
On Your Actions! 

There Is No Profit In Self ...!

... And There's No Profit In Selfishness ...!

... And There Is No Profit In Sin
So Let's Choose To Walk In Righteousness 
In The Sight Of Almighty God 
And 
In The Presence Of Fallen Man
And
Choose Always To Set The Good Example
Because 
We Love Our Jesus Christ Who Utterly Saves
And
It Is The Committed-Christian, Known-Right, Thing To Do!
Let's Work For The Salvation Of Our Fellowman! 

Beloved,
Please Place All Your Confidence
In Jesus Christ The Lord!

My Father Is Omnipotent ... And He Cares For All His Own!

My Dear Father Lives In Highest Heaven!
He Tells ... Promises ... Me That I Shall Not Want!
My Dear Father Is My Deliverer And My Provider
And
I Do Whatever He Says That I Must Do
So Please Do Not Come To Me With
You Perpetual Case Of The Can'ts!

The Conditions That I Must Meet With My Dear Father

Are Simple, Easy, Ones ... For Those Who Choose To Believe:

  • Obey And Pray
  • Watch And Stay In The Fold
  • Become Familiar With The Living Word
  • Do Not Follow The Multitude To Do Evil
  • Do Not Doubt
  • Give No Place To The Devil
  • Resist The Devil
  • Do Not Fear
  • Practice No Guile
  • Let My "Yeah!" Be "Yeah!" 
  • Keep All Of His Commandments
  • Look Unto Jesus The Author And Finisher Of My Faith
  • Be Kind And Do Good
  • Wait Patiently On The Lord
  • Plead For The Outpouring Of The Holy Spirit
  • Be Baptised
  • Deny Self
  • Be Of Service
  • Love Almighty God
  • Love My Fellow-Man
  • Don't Dig Graves For Your Adversaries
  • Speak Peace
  • Do To Others What You Want Them To Do To You
And


  • Remember That A Meek And Gentle Spirit Turns Away Wrath!


I Could Go On But I'm Sure That You Get The Point!

My Father Is My All In All!
In Love, He Beckoned To Me 
And 
In Gratitude, I Answered His Call!
I Accept That My Life Is My Own
But 
Not To Do Whatever My Flesh Requests
And
For The Very Reason

I Have Chosen To Give Back To My Dear Father
The Sovereign, Free Will And Free Choice
That He Gave Unto Me
And
The Path That I Walk Which He, Alone, Makes Straight
And
I Choose To Listen To The Still, Small, Voice Of Truth
Truth For Today ... Always Today
And
I Hold On To The Extended Hand Of Help
With Living Hope
Even As I Lean On The Everlasting Arm
Even As I Shelter Under His Wings
Even As I Rest On His Breast
Listening To The Holy Heart Which Broke
And
Died
With And For Love For Me!

I Believe My Dear Father

And
I, By His Grace
Intend To Endure In This To-Everlasting-Life Race!
My Father Promises That For Me ... In Heaven
In His House
There Is A Personal Place!
I Shall Not His Holy Name Disgrace!

We Who Love The Lord Christ 
And 
Believe The Living Word Of The Eternal God Of Grace
- Who Is Almighty To Save - 
Have No Reason To Walk The Earth 
In Fear Of Anyone Seen Or Unseen! 

Holy Angels Excelling In Strength 
Are Our Appointed Guardians 
And 
They Are Faithful To Their Mission 
To Protect Us Who Are The Inheritors Of 
Christ's Purchased-For-Us Salvation! 

Whatever Terror Assails You
Please Remember Whom It Is That You Serve
And 
Pray In Your Daily Gift Of Faith For That Day
- Nothing Wavering - 
And 
Go About Your Daily Business Boldly! 

Brethren, 

Please Fortify Your Mind 
By Reading The Living Word Constantly 
And 
Give Jesus Christ Your Fears: 
He Gives To You His Perfect Peace!
For Your Purchased Soul He Sacrificially Cares!

GOSSIP: Harpooned!






There's A Whale Of A Tale
About A Whale's Tail
Which He Would Flail
And That Without Fail!

Now ... A Whale's Tail
Is A Thing That Flails Like A Sail
Because, Well
A Whale Tells Its Tale With Its Tail!

Just Because You Can Tell A Tale
It Doesn't Mean That A Tale Should Be Told!
Just Because You Have A Tail
It Doesn't Mean That You Should Wave It Bold!

When Whalers Were Whaling
The Whalers Watched For The "Blow Hard"
To Broadcast From His Blow Hole
 And Without Fail
That Whale Got Himself Harpooned!
Very Soon Thereafter He Was Nothing But Lard ... Oil!

Nice Story!
What's Your Point!

Stop Broadcasting Your Guts To The World!
Your Faults: Tell To The Brethren!
Your Sins You Tell To The Lord!
Everything That You Know
You Do Not Have About It To Speak
So Learn To Keep Your Own Counsel
And
Stop Making It Your Mission
Other People's Business To Leak!

Back It Up, People!
The Gauntlet Has Been Thrown Down
And We All Know What's Going To Happen
Now That Soni Has Been Dragged Up The Grater
And ... Down!
Looka Dah Frown!

Pull Yourself Together, Minnot!
There Will Be No Having Out In Here!
The Lord Has Given Us Clear Counsel, Brother
So, Please Take Your Chair!

Brethen, Beloved

To Indulge In Idle Gossip
Is 
Not The Place Of The Child Of God
Because
It Is An Evil Disease
And
We Will Be Called Upon To Give An Accounting
When We Stand Before The Judge
Jesus Christ Our Lord!

We Have A Work To Do For Our Master
And
We Must Desist With All Heavenly Power
From Doing The Work Of Satan ... Our Adversary
The Known And Damned God-Fraud!

We Are Called To Do Good ...!

... And Good Will Attend Us!

Indeed!
With That Said
Let's Let The Word Of Truth
Speak To Our Hearts:




Now Listen Carefully To Me:

Man, Of His Own Accord
- Following His Own Selfish Inclinations -
Will Not Seek To Do That Which Is Good! 

However, Those Of Us 
Who Have Taken The Lord Christ For Our Inheritance 
And 
Are Walking In The Light Of The Sun Of Righteousness 
Will Do All The Good That We Can 
To Bless Others 
And Ultimately
Bless Ourselves In The Doing! 

Our Reward Comes From The Lord Himself 
So Let Us Not Do Our Good Deeds 
To Receive The Putrid Praise Of Carnal-Minded Men 
Who Love And Worship Self 
And 
Deny The Sovereignty 
And 
Power Of Almighty God! 

Almighty God Is Good All The Time 
And 
As The Lord Christ Has Commissioned
Commanded
So Should His People Ever Be! 

Do Good Today And Be Blessed! 
Confess And Repent Of Known Sin And Be Blessed!
Bless The Lord By Your Willing, Faithful, Service
And
Be Blessed To Be A Holy Spirit-Filled Success!


Gossip Is The Serpent's Nest!
Do Not Indulge Gossip
Not Even As The So-Called Jest!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Admiration And Approval!

In The Clan O'Man
Admiration O'Men
AND
Approval O'God
Were Stated
AND
Sworn Enemies!


This State Of Affairs
Is No Faction
Nor Fiction!
It Is A Fact
AND
It Sees Much Action
For
Admiration O'Men
Is Quite Popular
In The Clan O'Man
Since He Drives
The Biggest Big Man Wagon
AND
Lives At
Egg Don't Go To Big-Rock Dance
AND
Operates
The Catch As Catch-Can Shopping Mall
With Its
Blowing In De Breeze
Concession Stands!

Admiration O'Men
Roundly Roundly Despises
Approval O'God
AND
Considers
His Lifestyle To Be Pitiful
His Life Abysmal
His Word Too Truthful
His Walk-Way Too Narrow
The Road He Walks Too Straight
His House Too Quiet
His Speech Too Soft
His Clothing Too White
His Spirit Too Light
AND
He Has Questioned
Loudly
Why Approval O'God
Was Always Always Praying

AND
Why He Was Always Reading That Book
AND
Then Going To Sleep With The Birds
When He Could Instead Be Out Partying 

- Like A Real Man -
At Night!

Admiration And Approval
Had Not Always Been Enemies  ...

They Obviously Grew Up In The Same Clan!
They Lived In The Same Country
Same State
Same City
Same Borough
Same Street
They Spoke The Same Language
Drank The Same Water
Used To Eat The Same Meat!
Went To The Same School
Attended The Same Church
Shopped At The Same Market
Worked For The Same Company
AND
Walked The Same Walk
Until The Day
Man O'God
Gave
- In The Grand Assembly - 

"The Walk The Talk Talk To Walk Your Talk!"


Prior To This
The Major Talks Had Been
"Walk Your Walk!"

AND

"Talk Your Talk!"

BUT
The Day Of
The Walk Your Talk Talk
Made Many Men Balk
AND
There Was As Much Squawking
As There Was Walking
AND
Talking
Until
- With Finality -
Man O'God Challenged All
To Let Their Walking Do Their Talking
If 

They Wanted The Best O'God Life!

He - They Said -

Had Heartlessly Plunged Into Their Carnal Hearts
The Big Knife That Tortures Strife!

Well ... 

I Will Have You To Know That
Challenge Thrown Down
Saw
Gauntlet Picked Up!

... And How!

Admiration And Approval
Read The Stated Text Book
- Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth -
AND

They Were Off And Running
With The Clan O'Man Picking Sides
AND
Uttering On Their Chosen Champion
Blessings And Cursing
As Appropriate ... Of Course!

There Were Now
OFFICIALLY

Only Two Camps
To Which One
- Independent -
Could Belong!

There Was Mirth
- A Time Or Two -
As The Champions Fought For
AND

Found
Their Footing On, On ... The Way!


There Were Pitfalls
Sandbars
Desert Days
AND
Boisterous Cries Of

"I See The Promised Land
Just Over There!"

AND
There Were Days
When It Took Them Everything
To Make Even One Step
BUT
Something Was Happening
AND
Engendering
For Each Champion
His Cheering Side's Vocal
AND
Thoughtful
Dare I Say ... Respect!

Fifty Days Down The Road
Man O'God
- In The Assembly -
Stood Up
For To Speak
AND
With Eyes Enlightened
By Inspiration's Spirit
- In Dreadful Tones -
He Started To Speak!

His Word Was Not A Long One
BUT
It Was Not A Word For The Weak!
He Uttered In Force-Filled Cadence:

"Men and Brethren
I Know The One Of Whom I Speak
So
Choose You This Day
Whom You Will Serve:

The God Of Self
Or
The God Of Salvation!
Neither One Can Be Tweaked
For Each Is God
All Or Nothing!
Neither Is A Soft Pillow
That One Must Be Ever Fluffing!

As For Me
I Choose The Living God
The God Of Creation
The God Of My Salvation
Who Guards
Who Guides
Who Feeds!

I Choose
The God That Requires Obedience
AND
I Deny That Useless God
"Do What Thou Wilt!"
Where Self
Self Leads
Right Into Hell!

Be Prayerful!
Be Hopeful!
Be Helpful!
Be Kind!
Lift Up The Fallen!
Live For The Lord!
He Is Holy!
He Is The Only God DIVINE
Who Is Sustainer
Provider ... !

When, Suddenly ...

Admiration O'Men
- Suddenly All 'Growed Up' -
Spoke Up
AND
Uttered
Those Fatal Words:

If He Provides So Much
How Come He Doesn't Give Me Some Money?!
Gimme De Gold!

AND
All Hell Broke Loose!

Devils Joined The Fray!

It Was As Though
Someone
Had Opened A Stop-Cock!


Actually ...
Someone Did
AND
Admiration O'Men
Became The Head Clansman
That. Very. Day!

He Was Bold!
He Was Daring!
He Was Reckless ... To The Max!
He Acquired a Goon-Squad Of Villians
AND
He Made The Tax Man
Pay Him Back-Tax!

He Made Right Things Wrong
AND
With Devilish Machination

Saw 
Wrong Things Turned Right! 

He Darkened Lighted Streets
AND
Turned
Up Things Down!

What Had Once Been Bitter Is Now Sweet!
Old Sweet Became New Bitter
AND
*JustLikeThat*
Admiration O'Men
Was
IS

Rolling In Dough
AND
His Kitty
Had Gold Nuggets
For Kitty Litter
In Which To Do The Go!

His Dog Had a Dog
To Bark For It!

His Children Had Children
For Them To Cry
AND
His Wife Had A Keep-Miss Wife
To Do The Kitchen Business
AND
He
The Man Himself
The Power Of The Hour
Had A Line  Of Self-Decaying Ties
AND
A Literary Fleet Of Truly Upstanding Lies!

Admiration O'Men
- By Girth -
Also Grew Exponentially
BUT
Poor Approval O'God
Barely Got By
BUT
Surprise And Shock
He Was Glowingly Happy!

To See Those Two
Together
You Would Never Know
That They Read
Read
The Same Book
AND
From Its Pages
Directions For Living Their Lives
With Assurance
Took!

Fast Forward ...

Twen-T-Ish Years Later ...
Well ... 

All I Know Is
Many Years Have Passed
AND
Admiration O'Men's Holdings
In Carnal Earth
Were Vast Vast Vast
For
He Had In With The Very Devil
His Earthly Lot Cast
AND
In His Massive Holdings
- In Their Damning Glow -
He Did Bask!

He Was A Vile Offender
Who Truly Did Not Believe
In Pardons From Jesus
Nor Prayers On Bony Knees!

He Believed In His Belly
White Bread
AND
Blue Cheese
AND
Took Great Pleasure
Gross Pleasure
Practical Pleasure
In Selling 

Self-Pleasuring Sleaze!

He Was A Hedonist
A Humanist
A Globalist
A Revisionist
With Communist
Plus
Hegelian
Sadistic
AND
Masochistic
Tendencies To Self-Actuated
Authentic-Living Bliss!

He Would Kill For Popularity's Kiss
AND
There Is Documented Proof Of This!

Well, Well, Well ...!

I Guess That You Know
That
What Must Must
Must Must, Right?!

Every Dog Got 'E Day
Every Workday Got 'E Four O'Clock
AND
Every Pig
Got Sa'rday Mornin'
A N D
Admiration O'Men
Like A True Member Of The Last Class
Had Brought His Own Boar-Pig
To The Fine Market

AND
There Were Big Doings
Going On At His House!

Admiration O'Men
Was Sick
Sick Sick ... In Sin!
He Had Ruined Many Men!
Many Widows!
Many Orphans! 
He Had Brought Down Kings
AND
Cast Out Kin!

He Had Fed On The Weak!
He Had Colluded With The Wannabe Strong
AND
He Had Run With The Wasters
Who Lived For
Wine Women And Song
AND
Now 

He Is Dying
Is Sighing
Is Crying
AND
He Has Called For
Approval O'God
Who Is Now
The Man O'God
Who Is At Peace With The Eternal God
Having Escaped The Torments Of This World
By Not Giving In To
- Of All Things -
Lust ... Of The Eye
AND
Of The Flesh
AND
Has Denied The Pride Of Life
By Doing The Thing Honest
Lovely
Kind
AND
True
AND
All By Walking Wise
In Straight Paths
Having Heard
AND
Answered
Sweet Wisdom's Call
By Holding Out For
Holding On To
True Blessings
By Trusting
By Being Faithful
To The God
Who Sees Knows
AND
Is In All!

Phew!

Admiration O'Men
Not Being Able To Keep
For He Had Found Out
- The Hard Way -
That He Was No Refrigerator
On His Deathbed
Told Approval
All, All, Every Single Solitary
Ghastly Nasty Unkind
Deceitful Wicked
Downright Evil Thing
That He Had Done
Admitting
That Though He'd Done Much Wrong
The Chase Had Been ... Fun
Well ... Of A Sort!

He Said
That In Hind Sight
AND
With A Life Redo
He Would Walk
In Approval O'God's Way
BUT THAT
Since A Redo Is Not Possible

It Is A Good Thing That He Is Dying
For
He Is Convinced That Life Is Better

Doing Things In The Good Way
AND
Asked Approval O'God
To Tell The Clan O'Man
The Real Truth
AND
Not That Story
Published By That One Called Tissue O'Lies
Who Is One Of The Kin Of
O'Dee Devil
Who Takes Pleasures
In Works Of Unrighteousness
AND
Calling To Perdition
Those Fools Who Say
There Is No God!
AND
What Son Of God?!
What Son Of Man?!

Admiration O'Man
Died A Frightful Death
Kicking And Screaming
Using Language That Had Pith
BUT

The Great God
Had Approval O'God
Of The Clan O'Man In His Hand
So That Those Of The Clan O'Man
Who Chose To Be Wise
Can Stand
- Firm -
In The Faith O'God
Without Being
Becoming
A Marked For Damnation
Cast-Out Disgrace!

What Say You?
Answer If You Can ...

Are Approval And Admiration
Brothers
Twins
Neighbors
Friends?

Do Those Two
Approval And Admiration 
Of The Clan O'Man
Reside
In Me And In You?

I Say That
Approval And Admiration
Are Spirits
- Good And Bad -
AND
All Card-Carrying Members Of The Clan O'Man
Must Decide With Which Of Them
To Clasp Loving Hands!
To Life ... There Is A Limit!

I Now Ask YOU ...

Who Is Your Walking Companion?
How Are You Reading The Word?
Are You Yearning For Temporal Prosperity
AND
Walking In League With The World?
Do You Trust The Living Word Of The Master
AND
To Heaven
Are Sending Building Boards
OR
Are You A Tool Of The Devil
Trusting In What Feels Good
AND
Revelling In Things Sinful
Compliments Of The Leader Of 
The Wild Goat Goat Herd?!

Total Surrender To Almighty God
Holds Great Consequence
Both In The Here And Now
AND
For The Kingdom To Come
AND
All Who Will Inherit
Of Eternity The Crown
Must Fully Trust In The Eternal God
AND
In The Faith Of The Holy Jesus
Be Anchored
Rooted
Grounded  ... Strong!

Brethren ...

For A Personal Donation
Of

Confession And Repentance
I Encourage You To:

 Pick Up
Your Free Glass Marked ... SALVATION
And
Make Yourself A Beverage!

Your Base
Is
The Blood Of The Lamb!
- Forgiveness Is Poured Freely -

To Be Followed With
A Dollop Of Trust

A Splash Of Mercy
A Daily Dash Of Hope
And
With Blessedly Free Daily Grace
You Must Swish It All Around
And
Then Sweeten It Amply
With The Salt Of Obedience
And
Add A Peace Berry
And
Of Faith A Sprig
And
With Your Love For The Master Leading
Drink, Drink
To Your Fill!
