DON'T BE A GOAT: Impossible Position

... So To Put It As Plainly As Imagination Will Permit
Willfully Choosing To Live In Sin
Is 
Like Sailing A Lead Balloon
Attached To A Merchant Ship's Tow Rope
Held In The Atrophied Hand Of 
A Strutting Proud Peacock Of A Man
Wearing Polished Cement Shoes
While Climbing The Himalayas
And
Picking His Teeth With A Broom-Stick!
Do You Think He Needs A Helping Hand!?!

He Needs A Hand
And A New Head
And I Need Understanding To Unpack
What You Just Said!

Don't Cut And Swallow, Friend!
Bite, And Do A 44-Chew!

Are You Ready To Feast!?!

I've Got My Plate!
I Got Sharp Teeth!
Do A Brother A Solid And Release The Feast!

A Willing Sinner Is A Lie!
He Lies On His Conscience
And
The Will Of God He Defies!

His Saying That He Is Authentically Living
Is 
A Luminous Lie
For He Is As Satan
And 
Will In The Lake Of Fire Forever Die!

The "Good Stuff" ...

A Lead Balloon ... An Unpleasant Medicine Ball
Can't Float, Can't Fly
Can't Roll
And
Impossible To Swallow
Hurts If Dropped On The Toe
So It's A Fool
Who Does Not These Fast Facts Know!

A Merchant Ship's Tow Rope
Is 
Bigger Than A Man's Arm
Impossible To Gain Lift
Without Mechanical Leverage
So Bearing It Aloft
Is 
The Lie Of A Man To Truth Aloof
So You Know Of A Surety That This
Is 
A Devilish Spoof!

As To That Hand
There Is No Atrophied Hand That
Can Do Anything But Hang
Or "Blow" In The Wind
So An Atrophied Hand Lifting Load
Is Like A Camel Wearing An Ox Goad!

Ahh, Peacock!
Strutting Peacock!
Good To Look At
Offers No Profit When It Comes To Laboring
So To See A Man As A Proud Peacock
Is 
To See Him As One Lame
A Shame
For His Labor Is Lacking
As He Rises To Visual Fame!

What About Those Shoes!?!

Wearing Polished Cement Shoes
Says Nothing Good About Willing Sinner's Intelligence!
To Get Cement Shoes
It Means You've Been Hog-Tied
Hobbled!
It Means You're A Participant In
What Will Take Your Life
And
The Fact That You Shine Your Cement Shoes
Says That You Believe That They Are Worth Your Time
Even Though You Only Wear
- Not Walk In Them -
And Are By Them
Marked As The Adversary's Fair, Attached
Soon To Be Consumed Prey!

Frankie,
The Doozy In This Debacle
Is 
Willing Sinner, Hobbled
Going On The Extreme Climb
To The Pinnacle Of The World
Thinking ... I'm Mighty! 
And Saying
It's Extreme Climb That I Climb!
While Dressed To Impress
- Not To Protect -
And
Picking His Teeth With A Broom-Stick
Even As He Flies The Unflyable
Walk In The Unwalkable
Wearing Feathers Unprofitable
Utilizing A Hand Unusable
Flexing Rope Untieable
To Attain A Summit By Him Known Unbreachable!

He Sounds Totally Unteachable ...!

... That Is Debatable!

Why!?! How!?!

Frankie, My Friend,
Any Sinner Can Be Saved
When He Sees The Error Of His Ways
Recognizes His Need
Accepts That There Is The Savior
Offering Grace And Mercy And Pardon
And
Chooses To Deny Self
And
Do A U-Turn
And
Away From The Sure Way To Damnation
Toward Sure Salvation Confidently Turn!!

But The Cement Shoes!?!

Jesus Christ Has Provided A Sharp Chisel
That Is The Word Of God
A Two-Edged Sword
That Cuts Going And Coming
And 
Severs Sin And Self From Yearning Soul
And
Makes The Way For The Savior
The Seeking Soul To Enter In!

Be Ye Warned And Fed ...

At The End Of The Willful Sinner's Walk Of Pleasure
- Not Achieved
Impossible To Receive
Destined To Be Unbelieved -
He Realizes That He Has Unmovingly Walked
Climbed Not A Foot
And
Has Been Profited By Not Even A Groat
And
It Is Only In The Judgment That
- Choice Having Been Removed -
He Will Say With All In The Condemned Throng:

Father, God
Spirit Of Truth
Lord Of Light, 
I Was Wrong! 
You Are Right! 
Sin! Sin! Sin Is Soul Blight!
I Was A Fool! 
Of Faith, I Did Not Fight The Good Fight!


Brethren,
By Willful Sinning Do Not Your Soul Blight!
Turn To Christ Jesus
Daily To Be Fed
And
To The Living Kingdom
Be A Regenerated Delight!
For Soul Salvation
The Sin-Cure Sure 
And 
Pure
Fight, Fight, Fight!!


Choose Life
With
The Lord Of Life!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Yes! It Is Jesus Christ The Lord! + PRAYER: Your Promise Is Your Word, Lord!

Jesus Christ Gave His Life For Me!
I Give My Heart To Him
AND
I Beseech Him That He Not Permit Anything
In My Life
Ever Again
To Keep Us Apart!
Lord, I Give My Will To Thee!

I Want To Touch My Lord's Hands!
I Want To Kiss His Feet!
I Want To Listen To His Heart!
AND
Say To Him
Will All My Love, Singing:

Holy, Thou Art!

I Think On Him
AND
Smile Outside ... Within
When I Recognize Accept Believe
That
He Is My Creator
Redeemer Friend
Sanctifier Justifier
Provider Sustainer
Glorifier Immortalizer
Teacher Prophet
Priest King
Helper Healer
Sealer Greeter
Leader Feeder
Lord God
Hope Joy
Trust Home
Rock Refuge
Beginning End
First Last
Future Present And Past
AND
Understand That His Dominion Is Eternally Vast!

I Can't Outrun Run Him!
I Don't Want To Hide!
 
I Can't Outlive Him!
I Don't Want To Forever Die!

I Can't Escape Him!
I Want To Live In His Home!
He Is Everywhere Present!
I Am Not Alone!

Why Should I Doubt Him?!
He Is Truth!

Why Should I Ignore Him?
He's Been Ever With Me Constant
Even Before I Had A Tooth!

When I Start To Be Sad
In His Love
I Am Made Glad! 

When For Sin I Am Sorry
He Takes Away My Consuming Worry!

I Think!
He Made My Brain!

I Cry!
He Made Water! 

I Eat!
He Made Food!

I Am To Die!
In Him, I Am Made Alive!

He Carried The Cross!
His Love For Me Fixed Him Upon It!

He Laid In Death's Cold Grave!
His Love For Me Got Him Out Of It!

He Is In Heaven - For Me - Interceding!
Victory Over Sin
IS 
The Song In Which My Faith In Him Is Leading!

His Goodness Gives Me Mercy!
His Mercy Gives Me Grace!
My Gratitude Takes That Grace In Hand
Sure
That There Will Be A Feast
AND
A Place 
Prepared For Believing-Me
In Heaven's Table Land!
With His Blessing
I Will Not His Name Again Disgrace!


PRAYER:

Lord, 
Keep Me Faithful
Enduring Trusting
Working True
So That In The Day Appointed
I Shall Rise Up
To Go Up
To Holy Heaven
To Live Forever With You!


Remember My Brethren
Those Near And Those Far
For Whom The Wide Door Of Mercy 
Is Still Standing Ajar!


Keep Them In Your Care, Lord! 
Provide For Each According To Need
Bless Them
Lead Them
Feed Them
And
Call Them Out From Walking Vainly Behind
Sinful Men's Entangling Useless Creeds!


Your Promise Is Your Word, Lord! 
Your Word Is Written In Innocent Blood
The Mark Of Your Character 
The Same Before During And Since

The World Destroying Flood!
You Are
You Were
You Will Be
You See
You Know
You Care
And
All Who Choose To Walk In Truth
Have Nothing From You To Fear!


Thank You For Yesterday's Blessings! 
In Faith, Lord
I Look Forward For Today's
And
If For Me
There Are No More Of Man's Tomorrows
I Am Yours ... Now ... Always
For
I Look Forward With Hope Certain
To Your Promise
Which To Me
Is 
That Dying In You
I Shall Rise To Be With You
To Spend
The Never-Ending Day!


I Believe You! 
Take Away From Me
All Traces Of Unbelief
And
Help Me Ever, Always
To Deny Satan
That Vile Liar
The Known Salvation Thief!

You Are The Omnipotent God Able!
I Love You, My Lord!
Have Mercy And Bless
And
Please Come Soon! 
AMEN!

HAPPY SABBATH + The Righteous Marching: Great Day!





My Lord Christ 
Left Heaven
To Come To Earth
To Teach
To Feed
To Heal
To Bless
AND
To Save Me
- And My Kind -
SO
My Fitting Response
As One Desiring To Be Called
"Child Of God!"
IS
To Thrive Under The Teaching
By Becoming A Good Student
AND
An Obedient Servant
Eating The Good Food By The Son Of God Blessed
Recognizing My Need In My Sin-Sickness
AND
Reporting To Him To Be Healed
Bowing My Heart In Gratitude
AND
Accepting Into My Soul 
The Blessing
AND
Crying Out For Salvation
By Turning Away From Sin
To Bless God For His Sacrifice
That Saves Me
That Lifts Me Out Of The Grave
AND
Transports Me To Heaven
In Faith Now
AND
In Fact Later
On The Great Day!

There Is Much To Do
AND
It Is All Real!

Oh, Lord, Haste The Day
When I Shall
With My Brethren, Say:

Hallelujah!
What A Savior!
Matchless Gift Of Calvary
I Am Thine!
The Day IS Forever!
Thank You For The Love Gift
That To Heaven
My Soul
Now Uplifts!

I Was Weary
Wandering Lost
Unable To Pay
The Impossible Cost
When I Heard You Call
In Entreaty
And
I Believed Your Blessed Word
That At Calvary
Sin Suffered The Irrevocable Loss!

I Am Blessed!
My Soul Is Blessed!
Glorious Savior!
God Divine!
Lord, I Love You!
I Bless You!
I Worship You!
And
I Shall Do So Forever
In Paradise Regained
That Through Sin
Had Been Lost!

Brethren,

The Lord Of Life Died
To Give Life To The Dead
So That The Dead May Live Life
With The Lord Of Life
Who Was Dead
BUT
Is Alive
Forevermore!

Light 
Descended Into Darkness
To Lighten The Darkness With Light!

Darkness Responded
By Killing The Light Of Life
Which Rendered The Light Gloriously Bright
Unable To Be Ever Extinguished!
Light To This Day Is Shining
Forever Ablaze!

Salvation 
In Pitying Love Came Down!
Damnation
Ever Wanting To Be Fed
In Hateful Indignation Rose Up
Because Confession 
AND
Repentance For Sin
In Response
Were Before The Lord Laid! 

Forgiveness 
Opened The Life Book
AND
The King Of Life
By Mercy
AND
For Grace
Did A Grace-Note
For The Repentant
Did Make
Providing Sure Escape
From The Fire And Brimstone Lake! 

In This
Sin Is Defeated!
The Blessing Of God's Love Is Repeated
AND
The Scapegoat
In A Judas Coat
Is In Outer Darkness
For How He 
Man Treated
AND
At The Day Of Second Death
The Final Judgment
His Destruction Total
Shall Be Completed!

Sin 
Shall Never Rise Again
Neither Sorrow Death Nor Tears!
Hope Is Realized!
Chains Of Love Are Displayed!
Blessed Assurance Is Glorious Rest!
Life Is Life Eternal!
The Goodness Of God
Is
On Every Face
AND
It Can Never, Ever
Be Effaced!

Hold On!
Don't Let Go!
Redemption ... Is On The Way!
The Glorious Celebration
Will Be On
The Great Day
For Which
- With His Precious Life -
Jesus Christ
Our Only Savior
Only Mediator
Only Hope
Our Help
Did 
- For Us -
Pay!

THE FIGHT: Higher Up AND Better Off!




The Slaves Of The Potty Stop
Are Victims!
They Are Victims Of Lord Lie
Who Tells Them
That They Can Humble Jesus
AND

Make The Heavenly Father Cry!

It Is Like This ...

Lord Lie Is The Liar Supreme
AND 

A Spirit Most Foul
Who Thrives On Dissent And Dastardity
AND
Greed And Fermented Jealousy
Are The Prized
Secret-Sauce Ingredients
For His Hell And Damnation Velvet
Icecream Sandwich Truffle Pie!
That Pie Is Legendary!

You See ...

Lord Lie
- Apparently -
Gets Away With Murder
AND
Causing Mayhem And Mutiny
Misery Madness
AND
Malignity
Obfuscation
Orneriness
Pinocchio Olfactory Stimulation
AND
Truth Colorized And Spun
For
Upside Down
Back To Front
Regurgitation!
He Lives What He Churns
AND
Prizes Those
Who At His Feet Avidly Learn!

Lord Lie Is Blight
On Man's Butt
AND
There Is No Human
- In His Own Strength -
Who Can This Benighting Marvel
Come Close
To Hoping To Fight
Much Less For The Win!

Now ...

In The Town Of Tempest Tossed
Are Two Agents
One For Boss Blight
AND
The Other For
Survived D. Cross!

You Should Know That
Boss Blight Is The Avid Sinner
The Reprobate
Of The Fame Of
"I Write The Songs!"

AND

Survived D. Cross
Is The Savior
The Great I Am
The Good Shepherd
The Author 
The Finisher Of The Blessed Assurance
Who Provides
Faith Mercy
Grace Love
Hope Forgiveness
AND
A Home In Bright Mansions
On The Street Called
Eternity Long!

Survive D. Cross' Other Name Is Shiloh
AND
He Gives To Whosoever Wants Its
Rest
AND
Of Perfect Peace
A Piece!

Lord Lie
Aka Boss Blight
Hates Shiloh
AND
All Who Would See Him
At The Great Day
In Peace!

Oh, By The Way ...

Boss Blight's Registered
AND
Remunerated Agent
Is None Other Than
Higher Up!

Working For Survived D. Cross
Aka Shiloh
Is
Better Off The Faithful
Who Works For Free
Because Of Love
AND
The Hope Of The Promise
To Be Futurely Fulfilled!

Higher Up Considers Better Off
No Better Than An Errant Dog Turd
AND
Was Always Stepping Over Him
If You Know What I Mean!

Better Off Is
Well, Better Off
Because
He Has Inherited The Promise
AND
He Knows How
- Not When -
His Story
AND
Lord Lie's "Glory Run"
Will End
AND
Because He Has
A Piece Of Peace's Peace
AND
Trusts Shiloh
For Everlasting Relief
He Can Afford To Take
The Petty Insults
The Vile Barbs
The Fiery Darts Of The Wicked
AND
Still Rest
Peacefully
When Comes The Night!
Sleep With Him Does Not Ever Fight!

For Higher Up, It Ain't So!
He Counts Cash
Counts Coup
Considers Crime
Casts Aspersions
Divides Brethren
Destroys Deliberately
AND
Wanting To Be

!THE WINNER!

Sets About Trying
To Buy The Most Toys!
His Day Is Not Complete
Unless And Until
He Breaks Somebody's Will
AND
Takes Away Their Till!

Higher Up
Is A Willing Wilful Wasteful
Wiseacre Sinner
AND
Proud Of It
Thank You Very Much!
He Can't Spell
Pray
BUT
He Was Spell Prey
Backwards and Forward!
Interesting Thing Indeed!

Higher Up
Is A Grinch
A Grabbit
A Gottit
A Gotcha
A Gainsayer
AND
A Grandstander
AND
A Fiercely Proficient Liar
AND
A Leech On The Distaff Side!
He Gets Something For Nothing
For He Is The Go-To Consultant For Lord Lie
AND
Teaches Ready Learners
How To Riotously Wheel And Steal
AND
How To Always Close A Deal!
He Is The Break Down Merchant!

As We All Know ...

All Good Things
Must Come To An End
AND
On The Sure Day
Higher Up
Thought To Send
Better Off
To His Appointed By Higher Up
End!

Things Didn't Work Out As Planned
AND
Better Off Didn't End Up Where
Higher Up Thought
That He Should Land
Proving
- Beyond All Doubt -
That Deals With The Devil
Have No
For-The-Soul's-Good
Pay Out
For
A Sinner-Dug Grave
For A Loser-Saint
Is A Sinner-Dug Grave
For The Same Grave-Digger-Sinner
AND
The Saint Called Loser
Is The Winner
AND
The Sinner Called Winner
Is The Sure Loser!

We Would Do Well To Remember That ...

Devils Are Damned
For
The Lord God Is In Command
So
Be Careful
For Higher Up - In Sin
Is Never Better Off
For
Here Comes The King
Who Does Of His Children
No Forsaking!

Higher Up
Can't Be
Better Off
When All He Does
Is
The Ways Of Truth And Right
Kiss Off!

You, Personally
Will Be The One
Better Off
IF
You
The Ways Of Sin And Darkness
Cast Off!

Please, I Beseech You ...

IMMORTAL: Mortal!




If I
Were Now Immortal
I Would Have No Need
For A Holy God!
I Would Have No Need For Salvation
AND
Would Have No Fear Of
God's Chastening Rod!

I Would Walk
As Though I Am Law
Unto My Blighted Self!
I Would Walk The Earth
Not Giving A Tinker's Damn
About Any Other Person Save
My Own Delightsome Self
For I
Being Perfect
Not Admitting
Of Any Flaw
Would Have No Fear
Of Showing Mere Men
My Sharp
Shiny
Scything
Raptor's Claw!

I Would Do
As I Very Well Please!
I Would Mash Up
AND
Buy Back
Because I Would Have
Unwearied Knees!

I Would Cut Down
AND
Dig Up
Confident In My Self
AND
Having No Fear
Of The Real God
Nor The Damned Devil
Who
Having To Defer To Me
Is Beside Himself!

I Would Burn Bridges!
I Would Fly Close To The Sun
AND
Fly In The Face Of The Son!
I Would Walk Into Oncoming Motor Traffic
AND
Rejoice
For I Would Have No More Need
For Hacked Internet
Meme Traffic!

I Would Be
Mean
AND
Unkind
For I Will Have
Nothing To Regret!

I Would Be Fast AND
Still Slow
For I Will Have No Place
To Hurriedly Go!

I Would Sup
On Whatever Food Taste's Good
And Sip
On Whichever Drinks Waste's Hard!

I Would Not Rest
For I Will Not Be Sleeping
For My Own Unwearied Soul
Will Be In My Own Safe Keeping!

But ...

Alas
'Tis All A Satanic Lie
A Deception
To Make Satan Laugh
As We
Riding The Raging Tide
Volubly Bitter
Die!

Misery Likes Company
Just As Candy Likes Sugar
To Be Sweet
AND
SIN
Likes Willful Sinners
To Play Chicken
As They Wait Eagerly
-Supposedly -
Death To Riotously Cheat!

***-***-***

Believing To Receive
NOT
Conceiving To Deceive
Is The Man
That Says His Prayers
To The God Of Heaven
Who For Him Cares!

***-***-***

Money
Cannot Buy
Eternal Security
BUT
It Can Rid One
Of An Earthly Cross, 'Tis True
BUT
What If That Cross
- Wisely Appreciated -
Was The Means Whereby
To Eternally
Save You?!
The Question Applies To Me, Too!

Obviously, Then ...

Your Rubbishing Your Cross
For A Sinful Life Of Ease
Would Be Sad Indeed
When For You
The Cross Was The Cure
For The Sin Disease!

***-***-***

Nothing Is As It Appears!
Look Deeper
AND
Talk To The God Of Heaven
Who Created
Wind!
AND
Air!
That You Can Breathe In
AND
Feel On Your Skin
BUT
Cannot Keep On A Seat
Marked
Comfortable Chair!

***-***-***

Men Are Mortal!
Accept It!
Mortal Men Die
AND
Mortal Men
Who Choose To Believe
In Almighty God
AND
Follow After
Jesus Christ The Lord
WILL
With The Angels
One Soon-Coming Day
Adroitly Fly!

***-***-***

Lord, Please Draw Nigh!
