When "Dust-Bunnies" Get Bold!?!





Stop Misapplying The Word Of God!
Stop Being A Soldier For Satan The God-Fraud!
Stop Looking Inward!
The Inside Of Self Is Not Cute!
Look Unto Christ Jesus
Our Savior, Lord And Awesome God
And
The Adversary's Challenges Boldly, Coldly, Refute!

Bold Lee Self-Sufficient
Was Suffering
- According To Everybody Else And 'e Brother -
From Wild Self-Confidence
And
It Was Making Him Behave Like 
The Southern End Of A North-Bound Donkey!

It Was Not A Good Sight To Behold
In The Worldly Wise
And
It Was Truly Shameful To See This In A Professed Christian!

His Not-Lauded-In-The-Good-Book Behavior
Was Causing Ripples
And
The Sound-Bites Were Reverberating
In A Noxious Supply
To The Point Where It Was Causing
Even The Previously Stable To Stumble!

Badda Bing And Fadda Boom
Had Gotten So Hung Up On 
Bold Lee Self-Sufficient's 
Stretched-Out Self-Confidence That
Like A Choreography
They Had Both Led Common-Sense Unto A Fumble
And
Lo, And Behold
All Two Both Of Them
Had Taken A Tumble!

They Went Down Haaard!

He Who Is Self-Confident 
In His Own Self-Sufficiency
Has Himself
- A Fool -
For His Own God!

Foolishness Ain't No Kinda Sense ...

Fools Always Got Maybe Kinda
Sorta Probably Friends
Who Are Always On The Look-Out For An Easy Thrill!
A Cheap Laugh
And
Bold Lee Was One Such
Who Talked About The Lord
But
Always Denied His Power! 

Everybody Who Was His "Friend"
Was Waiting, Waiting ... And Watching
For ... The Fall!

Bold Lee Self-Sufficient Felt That He Personally Knew
What Was Best For Himself
And
Saw No Reason To Permit The Absentee Landlord
- He Was Very Disrespectful -
To Dictate His Pace
When He, Himself, Was On Ground Zero! 

He Constantly Behaved Like
And 
Told All Who Would Hear Him
That He Was His Own Hero!

Do You Know How To Spell Zero!?!

Boldly Self-Sufficient!

All Good Things Come To An End ...

Inevitably,
One Blessed Day
- If You're Alive The Day Is Blessed -
Bold Lee Went Too Far
And Stepped In It!

Wha' Sweet'n Goat Mout'
Does Bu'n 'e 'n 'e Tail!

Brethren,
You Can't Tempt The Almighty God
Twist An Uncaged Tiger's Tail
Knock An In-Residence Hornets Nest
Walk Nonchalantly Through Highway Traffic
And
Dare The Devil To Damn You
And
Actually Believe That Just Because
You Know The Words
Pay The Tithe
Sing The Songs
Give Alms
And
Visit The Sick
That The Lord Will Welcome You
Succor You In Your Sin Of Presumption
And
- Being Hard-Up For A Servant
A Follower, A Child - 
Save You From Your Self
And
Your Own Self-Manufactured Disaster!

Think Again!

Idiocy Does Not Become 
A Converted-To-Christ Christian:

There Are No Fools Going To Heaven!


Fact Check ...

Self-Confident, Self-Sufficient Lucifer
Started War In Heaven!
Self-Confident Satan Unleased Sin On The Earth!
Self-Confident Peter Denied Christ!
Self-Confident Judas Betrayed Christ!
Self-Confident Satan Killed The Lord Christ
And
We All Surely Know 
How That Worked Out For That Prince Of Darkness!

Since Self-Sufficient Self-Confidence
Did Not Work For The One Who Was Fourth
In The Chain Of Command In Heaven
I Really Can't Figure Out 
Why It Would Work For A Dust-Bunny Called Fallen Man!?!
Can You!?!

Think Carefully ...

Plainly Put
A Self-Sufficient, Self-Confident Christian
Is
A Bold Sinner
Because
Self Is A Sinner
And
No Sinner Shall Enter The Gates Of
The Living God's Eternal Home!

Self-Sufficient, Self-Confident Souls
Have No Need For A Savior
Their Known Sins To Bear
So
Let's Look At Ourselves
And
Once And For All Time Decide
Who Truly Cares For And Carries Us
And
Who It Is That We Should Hold In Godly Fear!


Take Your Place
And
Humble Yourself!
The Living God
Will Not His Throne
- Nor His Glory -
Share
And
You're Not Big Enough
To Make Him Do It!

Some God-Part Jesus?!





Some Men Serve The Baby Jesus!
Some Men Serve The Miracle-Working Teacher Of Galilee!
Some Men Serve The Christ Still On The Cross Of Calvary!
Some Men Serve The Dead-In-Joseph-Of-Arimathea's-Grave Jesus!
Some Men Serve The Jesus Who Got Up From Death's Tomb

AND
Some Men Serve The Jesus Who Rose Up
AND
Returned To His Father In Glory

AND
Forget
That Jesus Christ Returned
To His Father's House
For Us To Make Room!

Some Men Refuse To Accept
That There Is The High Priest Jesus
In Heaven's Tabernacle's
Most Holy Place
Pleading The Blood
Of The Lamb Slain
From The Foundation Of This World
Pleadings His Merits
To Take Away Believers' Sin-Shame
AND
Place As A Lost-To-Life Slave!

Jesus Christ IS One
God-Man
Fully God
Fully Man
From Glory To Glory The Same
Save For The Marks
Of The Ultimate Sacrifice
Which Will Be The Only Evidence
Of
Our Sin 
His Death
AND
Shame!

Man Cannot Choose
The Brand-Part Of Jesus Christ To Like
Love

AND
Worship!
Man Cannot Choose
Which Specialty Jesus
In His Heart To Hold!
The Complete Jesus May Dwell In Your Heart
BUT
You Can't Put Him
- Like Convenient Change -
In Your Pocket To Hold
For
In The Great Day
You Shall Surely Hear:

I Do Not Know You!
From Me Depart!

Jesus Christ
In The Life Of Man
IS
An All Or Nothing Proposition!
Jesus Christ To Man
Is Either
Savior Healer Sealer King
OR
Stumbling Block
AND
Condemning Judge
Who Will To Him
Condemnation's Damnation Bring!

IF
Your Idea Of Christ Jesus
Renders Him
The Missing Piece(s)
Jig-Saw-Puzzle-Jesus
Prepare Your Self
For A Rude Awakening
For
It Is The Whole Jesus
Pleading His Precious Blood's
Bought-For-Us-Salvation
Against
The Death Penalty Handed Down Against Man
By The Justice
Of God's Holy Law!
Jesus Christ IS Whole God
Not Partial-God Flawed!


Be Wholly Thankful

For

The Forgiving Redeeming God 

The Merciful Gracious Jesus 
The Teaching Comforting
Chiding Holy Spirit
The Almighty God Who Rewards
The Upholders Of The Faith
For Doing All
- For Love -
In God's Immutable Living Law!

The Stumbling Block!

In The Statement:

I AM As Real As You Let Me Be To You!


Is The Stumbling Block!

How Would You Feel
IF
Your Child Said:
I Know That They Are My Parents
BUT
I Do Not Believe They Are My Parents?

OR

Your Husband Or Wife Saying:

I Know I Have A Spouse 
And I Am Consumed By Love For That Person
BUT
I Do Not Believe In The Marriage
AND
Have No Faith In Our Relationship?


What Is The Use Of
Knowledge 
When We Lack Faith And Belief?

*********

How Do YOU Believe 
Jesus Christ Feels
When We Treat Him
The Way
We Have No Desire To Be Treated
In Our Earthly Relationships?







There Is No Magic!
Jesus Christ IS Real
BUT
Because We Humans
Have Free Will
To Walk As We Choose
AND
Make Choices That Will Permit Our Names
To Be In The Evening News
We Use Our Ability
To Permit Reality Into Our Lives
By Degrees
Even If By That Decision
We End Up Humbled
Crying
- Sometimes Even Pleading For Death -
On Our Knees!

Belief!
Or Better
Belief Mingled With Unbelief
In The Multitude
Is The Reason
That Jesus Is Heard Asking:




AND

Saying:





AND

The Kicker:





We Used To Have Full Sight!
BUT
The Sin Of Doubt 
AND 
Presumption 
Cost Us Fore (Forward) Sight
AND
We Now See Things Through A Cloudy Glass!

We Used To Have Real Face-Time With Our Father!

But Now ...

We Must Pray And Plead
The Attributes Of Jesus Christ The Righteous 
To Receive Comfort And Aid
AND
The Blessings Of
Grace And Mercy
AND
Peace And Rest!

Of Note, Though
Is The Fact That
Neither
Allowance For
Nor Lack Of
Faith
Belief
AND
Trust
Will Turn God Into A Myth
Or A Mere Melody!

Our Irrational Desire
Will Not Render
The Eternal God
Of No Force Nor Effect!

Jesus Christ Is!
Jesus Christ Made Us!
Jesus Christ Purchased Reconciliation For Us!
Jesus Christ Is Coming Back To Earth
For That Which Was Lost
AND
Is Taking Back To His Home In Heaven
All Those Who Will Have Chosen
To Be:
Found
Believing
Faithful
Trusting
Reformed
AND
READY!

Take A Look
A Step
A Leap
Of  Faith
AND
In The Day Of Appointment
Be Made Anew
AND
Feel Your Wings
Unfurl
Even As You Are Borne Aloft
By The Love Of The Living God
To The Land Where Love Reigns
Where Light Is Life
Where Eternal Life Is Not A Poem
Where Time Is Forever Passed
Where The Sea Is Glass
Where Streets Are Gold
Where Citizens Cannot Grow Old
AND
Trust Cannot Be Bought Nor Sold
AND
Where The Sheep Are Safe 
In The Father's Forever Fold
AND
Hearts Can Never Again
Wax Cold!

God Is
AND
Whether We Believe 
Or 
Disbelieve
Have No Faith
AND
Refuse To Follow Him
Does Not Change That Fact!

Our God Is Returning
AND
He Will Not Be Silent!
