VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Stubborn Heart

Carnal Heart Despises Light
AND
He Is Very Stubborn
So He Is Also Known
In The Kingdom Of The Light
As Stubborn Heart -

He Loves The Dark Night!

Today Is A Beautiful Day!
AND
Much Light Is Shining
AND
Stubborn Heart Is In His Castle's Kitchen Garden!
He Has Laid Out
A Good And Large Vegetable Patch!

He Is Energetically Planting
Rebellion Peas
Neglect Beans
AND
Resistance To Truth Collard Greens

AND
He Ceremoniously Waters Them With
Change-Leader-At-Will
AND
Afterward

Calmly
Confidently
Walks The Path To Comeuppance
Where Free Mercy Has No Skill!

Time Seemingly Slowly Passes ...

He Just Pulled Up The Weeds Called
Rebuking Sin!
Power To Resist!
Eyes Turned To Truth!
AND

Open To Conviction!
AND, THEN 

He Generously Manured His Precious Seedlings
With
Gross Affections Vile
AND
Sin's Open Door
AND
Being Also Very Greedy

AND
Ever Avidly Seeking To Get
The Bumper Crop For Self
He Drip-Irrigates With Yield To Temptation
AND
Has Constructed A New And Wide Barn
For He Knows He Is Going To Have Extra Produce
To Others To Cheaply Sell!
He Tells No Lie On This And That Is Certain Sure!

On The Day Before Harvest
All Walk Ways Are Meticulously Cleaned!
The Path Marked Sinful Indulgence
Bisects The Path Called Molded Character
AND
Not A Shred Of Mercy's Light Can Be Seen
For
Stubborn Heart
Is Become Hardened Heart
A Character
Now Well And Truly Unclean!

Harvest Celebration ...?!

The Eagerly Anticipated Harvest Celebration
Was Changed The Next Day, When
At The First Turn Of The Reaping
Hell And Damnation
Were Unceremoniously Displayed
AND
With A Great Howling
A Fearful Mourning
AND
A Useless Appeal
The Seeds Of Destruction
Their Whirl-Wind Did Yield!


No! 
Not This!
This Is Not My Fruit! 
This Is Gross And Grandly Egregious!
Where Now Is My Hope?!

How Can I With This Fearful Mess Cope?!

Said The Voice Of Justice
Now Untempered With Mercy:

You Cast Your Confidence Away!
You Walked In Your Own Will!
You Put Mercy In Jail
AND THIS ...
This Is Your Harvest!
The Bitter, Bitter Pill!

It Can't Be Undone
For
You Willingly Walked In Your Own Way
Stubborn
Disobedient
AND
To Purchased Comeuppance
You Have Assuredly Come!

You Reap What You Sow!
You Eat What You Grow
AND
You Alone Know The Seeds Sown
Which At This Harvest
You Will Not
You Cannot
Disown!

You Were Weighed In The Balances!
You Are Declared By Truth Wanting!
Your Kingdom Is Finished
AND
There Is No Good Kingdom For You
To Give To Another!

You Hated The Light!
You Despised The Truth!
You Denied Correction!
You Preferred Running Wild 

Unchecked
And Loose!

You Filled Up Your Own Cup!
Meticulous You Were!
You Thought To Switch Sides
At Your Own Will
And, Now
You Are Drinking
The Folly Of That Swill!

If You Had Never Known Truth
Mercy Might Have Intervened
But
You Despised Light's Dignity
AND
Now
You Are Left To Contemplate
The Wretched Wrecked Scene!

No Mercy! No Mercy!
No Hope For A Chance!
You Denied The Crier
AND
You Accepted The Liar
AND
You Made Your Own Bed
By Denying The One
By Whom Your Life Is Daily Fed!

Stubbornness
AND
Disobedience
Are All Part
Of Witchcraft's Stew
AND
There Is Always White Glove Table Service
When Eating At Comeuppance Broth And Brew!

You Are One Special!
He Who Ever Is
Died
To Save You
BUT
You Chose Your Own Voice
To Which To Listen
AND
Now You Are Set For Immersion
In The Accursed One's Fire Lake Damnation!

Mercy Ever Always Calls
Upon The Soul That Listens
Extending A Fair Hand
To Keep That One
In The Straight Way
BUT
The Soul
That Despises
Heavenly Dominion
Will Eventually Find Self
From The Source Of Life
Cut Away
For
On The Way
To Eternal Life
Self-Made Pathways
Ever Always
Give Way!

Lean On The One
Who Is Life, Light And Way
AND
He Will See To It
That To Heaven
You Will Safely
Arrive There!


Oh, That Men
Would PraiseThe Lord

For His Goodness
His Mercy
Toward
The Children Of Men!


Brethren,
A Self-Made Man
Is A Man Damned
For Sinful Flesh Cannot Come Nigh
To The Holy God

- The Consuming Fire -
For It Is Instantly Consumed
Even Before One Can Yell:
"Fire!" 



Want To Save Yourself?!

Get Free Fire Insurance!
Get Christ Jesus
For
He Freely Gives Out
Unburnable
Righteous
Clean
White
Linen Robes
To Those Repentant Ones
Who Ask!
