HAPPY SABBATH: BUTTONS : Self! ... Self-Destruct! + PRAYER: Father, Grant Us Your Grace!

Self
Selfish
Self-Willed
Self-Serving
Self-Satisfied
AND
Self-Deceived
Are One!
One Family!
One Mistake!
One Matter!
One Mission
Pointing
That One Someone
To Mate
With The Master Of Disaster
To End Up Either
Dead Now
AND
Permanently Dead Later
Eternally Separated From The Holy God
OR
Now
In Traction
Humiliated
Jailed
Disgraced
Shamefaced
Despairing
OR
Legs Or Arms Broken
Encased In Plaster
Spirit Broken
Love Lost
Hope Lost
A Token Of What Is A Lost Life!
It's A Crap Shoot!

All This
Is Caused
Because
Satan Is The Liar
AND
He Loves To Expose Man's Flaws
By Having Them Denigrate God's Laws
AND
He Knows That There Is No Better Way To Do It
Than To Cause Man
To Lift Up Self 
With Satan's Own Original Song:

I Will Be Like ...!

I Will Elevate My ...!

I Will Sit Upon ...!

I Will Ascend ...!

I Will Ascend Also ...!

You Will Note ...

That Nowhere
In This Putrid Soliloquy
Is Ever Uttered Words Like:

"If God Allows ...!"

For The Simple Reason That

Self
Is Its Own God
AND
To That Known
AND
Exposed Fraud Satan
- The Self-Serving One -
Jesus Christ
- The ONLY Begotten Son Of Almighty God -
Was The Usurper!
The Fraud!
This Is Self-Deception At Its Known Best!

I Charge You Today
To Know And Understand That
Self 
Writes Post-Dated Checks
AND
Also Indulges In
Check Kiting!

Self Also Always Borrows
AND
Always Expects
The Human To Pay
Saying Unconcernedly:

"Man's Gotta Pay For His Play!"

Self's Selfish Desires
AND
Self-Centeredness
Lack Self-Control
AND
Lavishly Indulge In
Self-Righteousness
While
Feigning Self-Respect
AND
Ignoring Self-Reflect
All The While Well Knowing
That It Is Best
For Self 
To Destroy
The Self-Made-Man Mirror
AND
Look Toward Man's Maker
While Determinedly Dismissing
Satan
The Benighting Faker!
Don't Deal With Bad Fruit!
Cut Down The Tree!
Destroy The Root!

But ...

Vanity Of Vanities
Self
- Utilizing Lies As Self-Confidence's Working Device
While Its Self-Assurance Is Lacking True Self-Assessment -
Sells
Self
Self-Service On
Choice Bread
Cut Up Like Sliced!
Life May Just Happen!
Choice Does Not!

To Live For Self
By Self
Through Self
In Self
With Self
Because Of Self
Is Silly Unto Sordid
AND
Leads To
Leaving One In
Satanic Captivity!

So ...

STOP
Looking In!
STOP
Looking At!
STOP
Looking Around!
AND
Look Up!
Unto Jesus
Our Author
Our Finisher
The Lord Of All Creation
The Holder Of Man's Shaking Hand
The Sacrificed Lamb
Of
The Save-Man Salvation Plan!

I Beseech You, Dear Ones
Please
Drop Your Plans
AND
Follow God's Plan
AND
Know
Trust 
AND
BELIEVE
That At The Day Appointed
You Will Be
- By Almighty God -
Eternally Elevated
Eternally Saved
Eternally Safe In Heaven
Nevermore To Self A Slave!
Will You Stand Up For Jesus?

If We Are In

God's Service

We Cannot Use The Words

"I Always Put Myself First!"

AND

"God Must Save Me!"

To Make A Good Sentence!

*********

Self-Service

And

Self-Destruct

Always Start

With Self!

*********

Self-Denial Is Elevating!
