HAPPY SABBATH + Go For The Lord Christ ... And Honestly Complete Your Assignment!







The Lord Our God Almighty Asks For Volunteers 
And 
When We Raise Our Hand And Our Voice To Accept The  Assignment
We Are  Obligated To Dot The I's And Cross The T's 
To Ensure That The Job Of Work 
Is 
Completed To Time 
And 
According To Specification 
Utilizing The Equipment 
Aka The Gifts, Skills, Abilities, And Opportunities Provided 
According To The Providences And Mercies Of The Lord! 


Let Your Word Be Your Bond!

Beloved, 

Beware! 

When The Lord Sends Us Out
- Whether We're Called Or Volunteering -
He Is Meticulous With His Instructions: 
Please Don't Add To
       Subtract From
               Or Ignore Them! 

The Lord Himself Sends You 
And 
You Are Duty-Bound To Report Back To The Lord Alone
And 
Not Permit Some Wretch To Meet You In The Way Saying That 
An Angel Or The Lord Himself Told Them To Tell You 
To Break Faith With God! 

Disobedience Is Deadly! 

In The Work World
Employees Who Step Out On Their Assigned Work 
Are Considered Disrespectful, Deceitful
And
Disloyal
And 
Will Find Themselves Done And Dusted Aka Dismissed! 

The Prophet Jonah Was Swallowed By A Whale For His Disobedience! 
Three Days Repenting In The Smelly Belly Of A Living Submarine 
Saw Him Finally Going Where He Was Sent 
And 
Finishing The Work! 

The Unnamed Prophet Did The Assigned Work 
But 
Permitted A Lying Prophet To Entice Him To Disobey 
A Direct Command Of The Lord 
Not To Eat Or Drink Anything On The Job Site! 
His Disobedience Cost Him His Life By The Teeth Of Lions! 

Obedience Is Better Than Sacrificing!

I Beseech Us All To Be Wise 
And 
Give To Our Lord Christ Our Perfect  Obedience! 

Dare To Go Where You're Sent 
And 
Wisdom Working
Diligently Finish Your Assignment! 

Peace!

Christians Coldly Calculating Consequences!?!





Working For The Master
Should Be A Straight Up:

Yes, Lord!
I Obey!


There Should Never Be An Instance Where
Christians Coldly Calculating Consequences
Should Ever Come Into Play
In The Contemplation Of
Our Service For The Master!

That's Real Easy For You To Say!

It Should Be Easy For You, Too!
You're A Christ Follower, Aren't You?!

I'm A Christ Follower But I'm Not Foolish!
I Need My Life If I Want To Live!
If I Have No Life
What Is The Service That I Can To The Lord Give?!

Do You Believe The Word Of God?!

Of Course, I Do!

Is It Suitable For You In Everything You Do!

Of Course, It Is!

In That Case
How Does:

Not My Will But Thy Will Be Done!

Come Into Play For You?!

How About:

Take Up Thy Cross And Follow Me?!

And, Lest We Forget
When, For You, Does

Yeah, Though I Walk
Through The Valley Of Death
I Will Fear No Evil!


Start Working?!

Ahhhm, Uh ...!

As The Son Of Man
Jesus Christ Gave Unto Us 
The Perfect Example Of Obedience!

As The Son Of God
Jesus Christ 
Gives
Unto Us The Power To Obey ...!

... You Should Add For Parker's Benefit
If We Believe He Is Able To Deliver
On The Promises Of God!!

So, I Guess, Parker
We Meaning ... You
Are At A Crossroad!

A Very Important Dangerous
Destiny-Altering Crossroad!

So, Mr. Parker
Who Are You Going To Call Up
In The Hour Of Your Trial
If 
You Don't 
Can't
Won't
Trust Jesus Christ In The Field?!

Jesus Christ 
Is
God Almighty
All The Time Or None Of The Time!
He Cannot Be Almighty In The Calm
And
Then Trembling 
When His Believing Children
Face The Fire!

You Either Trust Jesus Christ All The Way
Or Doubt Him All The Way!

I Know!
I Know That You're Right!

Well, Then
Just Understand That There Is No Middle Ground!
No Halfway!
No Grey!
It Is Black Or White!
Green Or Red!
Believe Or Doubt!

There Is To Be No Waffling
And
Decidedly
No Turning About!

I, I, I Am Scared ...!

So Were We
But 
We Still Went Out!

Remember Moses
And
Don't Ever Forget Elijah!

They Believed And They Trusted
And They Walked 
And, Lord Almighty, How They Worked!

Moses Died And Was By Jesus Christ, Himself
Resurrected
And
In Holy Heaven Does Live!

Elijah Lived
And
Was Translated Never Having Tasted Death
And
In Holy Heaven Does Live!

Hold On To This Truth ...

All Of Jesus Christ's Redeemed Ones
Will Be Reclaimed As Either A Moses
Or
An Elijah!

But What About The Cost!?!

What Cost!?!
Jesus Already Paid All Our Costs
So The Price To You Is Cheap!

Not Thaaat!
I Mean To Moses And Elijah!

The Cost Was Still Cheap
Since Neither One Was 
- To The Glorious Kingdom -
Lost!

Man, I Really Need To Grow A Spine!

Brother,
Trust God And Learn To Lean On Jesus!

Wise Up And Be A Fool For Christ
And
Do A Paul!

Huh!?!




Yeah! Yeah!
My Strength Is My Leaning On The Lord
Because I Know I'm Weak Without Him!

Don't Ever Forget This ...

The Lord Can't Use Personally Strong
Arrogantly Self-Sufficient
Prideful Persons
To Preach Peace And Salvation
To His Seeking People!

You Know What!?!

What!?!

I Can Do This!
I Can Do All Things Through Christ ...!

... Who Moment By Moment ...!

... Strengthens Us!

BEARING A CROSS: Daily Following After Christ!

Lord, Have Mercy!

What's The Matter!

Matter?!
You Have The Nerve To Ask Me
What's The Matter?!

Shall I Repeat Myself?!

Not Necessary!
I'm Just Steamed At You ... Um, All ... Men!

Okay, Mavis.
What DID Seibert Do ... This Time?!

That Big Able Heathen
That Calls Himself A Cushion...!

Huh?!
Why Would He Call Himself A Cushion?!

Sorry!
That Chris... Ti... An
Just Told Our Son To Take Up His Cross
And Follow Him!!
What Kind Of Father Would Do That?!

Our Father
Which Art In Heaven ...!

... Why Are You Saying Your Prayer?!

I Didn't!

I Just Distinctly Heard You Say:
Our Father
Which Art In Heaven!

Yes, You Did!

So Why Were You Praying?!

I Wasn't!

Come, Now!

Seriously! I Was Responding To Your Question!

Really?

Really!

I Don't Get It!

When Last You Cracked Open The Old Bible?!

Just Last We ... Last Mon...!
What Year Is This, Again?!

2017 ... And All But Over!

I Know Now!
It Was ... The End Of Last Year!

I Shall Now Say
- In Your Behalf -
Lord, Have Mercy!

Whatever!

If You Opened Your Bible
You Would Know What God Said!

Jesus Himself Said That 
If Any Man Will Follow Him
He Must Take Up His Own Cross
Daily ...!

Who Wants To Carry A Cross Daily?!
That Don't Make No Kind Of Sense!
A Daily Cross Is A Daily Burden
And Carrying That Heavy-Tail Thing
Your Strength Is Soon Spent!

Did You Not Hear The Part
... And Follow Jesus?!

I, I, I Guess I Wasn't Really Listening!
I Could Hear The Words
But The Meaning Wasn't Coming Through!

Lord, Help Us!
We Listen But Don't Hear!
We Hear But We Aren't Listening!

I Shall Speak Slowly And Distinctly:

You Must Pick Up Your Cross
Today, And Every Day
And Daily Follow
Our Lord Jesus Christ!

There Is Strength For The Journey
AND
Courage For The Way
AND
Faithful Believers
Should Not On This Matter Delay!

If
- When - We Follow Jesus
We Shall See Persecution
AND
Bear A Cross
To Be "Nailed" To That Cross
BUT
Before That Dark Day
We Will Petition
Pray
Converse
Plead
Commune
With Our Holy God
AND
- In Perfect Obedience -
Do The Will Of The Father
AND
We Will Be Fed Of The Holy Spirit
AND
Strengthened By Holy Angels
AND
True To The Great Commission
We Will Have The Necessary Food Set Before Us
On Experience's Custom-Made Table!

There Is A Crucible For Every Christ-Following Christian
For
Perfection Is The Watchword!

Remaking Us In The Creator's Image
Is On The Trajectory
AND
For Heaven At The Last
The Conclusion Of The Days Of Faithful Endurance
Will See Us Gloriously Triumphant
On The Great Day Of Rejoicing!
That's The Blessing
For Me And Thee!

Cross-Bearers Do Not Walk Alone!

So Why Didn't He Just Say So?!

It's Hid Treasure, Baby Girl!
Hidden Treasure!
You've Got To Open The Book!

Oh.
