GRACE: From Root To Fruit!






Every Body Wants To Be A Strong Tree
Growing In Luscious Array
Showing To All The World
Roundly
That They Are Blessed
AND
By The Holy God Paid!

Strangely, Though ...

Some Body Seems To Have Forgotten
That Strong Trees
Need To Have Good Root Stock
AND
A Tree
Planted In Shallow Ground
Will Surely
- When Afflicted -
Energetically Fall To The Ground!

Dear Christian Brother And Sister
Let's Look Seriously Unto Ourselves
And Ask:

From Whence Comes Our Rootstock?

And 

What Kind Of Fruit Sits Upon Our Heart's Store Shelf?

The Bible Tells Of The Fruit Of The Spirit!
The Bible Calls Jesus Christ The Root Of David
And The Branch

And ...

If We Are Thinking Clearly
We Will See
That To Get To Fruit Bearing Potential
We Must Have Jesus Christ In Our Hearts!

Without Jesus Christ
There Is No Root!
Without The Root
There Is No Holy Spirit!
Without The Holy Spirit
There Is No Fruit
AND
When This Is The Case
Jesus Christ, Himself
Calls For The Cutting Blade
AND
That Is The Gospel Truth!

To Get The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit Must Be In Our Insides!
To Get The Holy Spirit In Our Insides
We Must Ask Jesus Christ In Us To Abide!

So ...

With This Being The Case
Let Us Not Drop Out Of The Race!
Let Us Confess All Known Sin
Repent Of Past Actions
Invite The Savior Jesus
To Enter In And Not Our Feeble Hearts Abandon
AND
We Must Daily Ask For The Indwelling
Of The Holy Spirit Of Grace
Pleading For The Daily Portion Of Overcoming Grace
Whereby We Can The Problems Of The Wicked World Face
AND
Do Not Let Us Let Up
On Our Pleading With The Lord
For In The Doing
We Will Receive The Great Award!

BUT ...

Let Us Not Forget
That NOW! Is The Acceptable Time
For 
Tomorrow Is Not Promised
AND
Temporal Time
Is In A Dire Decline!

Soon ...

Time Will Be Finished
AND
The Records Will Be Read
AND
All Who Are Righteous
Will Be Righteous Still
AND
Whosoever Is Filthy
Will Be Filthy Still
AND
All Fruit-less Fruit Trees
Will Be Firewood
As The Holy God Wills!



Request And Receive
The Lord Jesus Christ!

Request And Receive The Holy Spirit!
Request And Receive
The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit

AND

In The Fulness Of Time
Attend The Heavenly Banquet
For You Will Have Been 
By The Eternal God Filled!

For What Do You Pray?







We Just Don't Know Of The Many Blessings
That Keep Us From Doing  
The Unholy One's Behest!

We Just Don't Know Of The Many Blessings
That Bring Us To The Lord 
So That We May Our Sin Confess!

We Just Don't Know Of The Many Blessings
Which Cause Us To Turn Away
From Falling Into Mortal Distress
So ...
Let's Give Our Praise And Thanks
Trust And Obedience To The Living God
So That Heaven Will Continue
Our Hearts And Hands To Bless!

Our Loving Savior
Says That We Must Come To Him
To Be Fed
BUT
Before We Can Go To Him
We Must Recognize
That We Have A Need
For The Bread Of Heaven
AND
Life's Living Water Pure
AND
Believe That God Can Will Feed Us
AND
ONLY THEN
Will Our Food Be Sure
AND
Secured!

Let No Man Deceive You!
The Living God Is Not Mocked!
Let Not Self Deceive You
To Believe
That Going To God Is There To Give You
Ample Temporal Stock
For
Life Is More Than Food And Raiment
Houses And Land
Possessions And Processions
Following Fashion
AND
Always Having The Winning Game Hand!

Coming To Jesus
Will Get You
The Father
AND
The Son!
Not Coming To Jesus
Will Make You
A Sure Lost
An Also Ran!

The Heavenly Father Won't Know You!
The Eternal Gifts For You
By You Will Be Cast Away
AND
In The Great Day's Dawning
Your Wailing Teeth-Gnashing
AND
Christ-Confessing Self
Will Receive Its Justly Earned
Jesus-Awarded
Fully Compensated
No Deductions
For Nor By Mercy Sanctioned
Eternal Gross Pay!

NOW Is The Accepted Time Of Salvation!
NOW Is The Time - Don't You Delay
For The Lord Is Willing
With You To Reason
No Matter What Your Life's Season!

He Will Listen To What You Have To Say
AND
If You Have Questions
Know For A Surety
That He Will Answer All
For
He Is The Creator God
Of Everything
Great And Small
On Under
Above The Blue Ball!

Please Know
Without Fear And Failing
That Jesus Christ
Is The Answer
Whereby You Can Reclaim
ALL
That Was Lost To Us
Because Of Man's
Satan-Inspired
Ignoble Fall!

Trust In The Lord!
Call On His Name!
Believe In His Promises!
Walk In His Way!
Live In His Light!
Take From That Holy Hand The Offered Blessing!
From Cherished Sin Walk Away
AND
By Jesus Christ The Righteous
Enter
The Land Bright With Everlasting Day!
