AMAZING WORDS: Who Can You Turn On!?!

Words Are Amazing! 

Look At This ...

Who Can You Turn On!?! 

This Sentence Has Multiple Meanings 

And

Depending On Context, Occasion, Or Association

We Will Know How To Behave! 

Let's Set Aside The Sensual 

And 

Look At The Anger Caused By Betrayal! 

What Is Your Response When You Feel Betrayed!?! 

Is Your Response Christian Or Criminal!?! 

Moving Along Briskly, Please Consider 

Who Can You Turn On ... To The Lord Jesus, Our Savior And King!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Have You Considered That The Lord God Almighty

In The Person Of Our Blessed Jesus Christ 

Is 

Worthy Of Our Excited Proclamation Of His Goodness And Grace 

Because 

He ... Being Love And Light

Only Ever Commands Us To Do What Is Right 

And

Always Ever Makes Promises To Us Of What Is True!?! 

Do You Know That Doubting And Distrusting The Lord 

Is 

Unbelief And Disobedience!?! 

Since The Lord Is True ... And The Truth

And 

His Word Is The Truth

Our Having The Double-Mindedness Of The Doubter 

Who Is Unstable In All His Ways 

Is 

Causing Us To Tread On Dangerous Ground 

And

We Are Become As Satan

As Adversaries Of The Living Holy God

As Betrayers Of Truth And Righteousness! 

In This View, We Are As Deceitful Bows

Which Look Right And Pull Left! 

Words Are Amazingly Powerful! 

How Are You Using Your Words!?! 

Who Benefits When Your Mouth Opens And A Story Jumps Out!?! 

Words Work And Words War! 

Please War Against Sin 

And 

Work As An Ambassador For Christ Today! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Are You Living A 3-D Life!?!

 

Is The Sense, The Spirit, Of Entitlement 

Causing You To Live A 3-D Life!?! 

Is Your Life Such That 

There Is Disrespect Because Of Dishonesty 

Which Is Leading, Or Has Led, To Disappointment In A Relationship!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Careful! 

Entitlement Is To A Christian 

What Faith Is To A Humanist: 

It Does Not Belong

Doesn't Work

And 

Doesn't Profit Aka Doesn't Bless! 

We Cannot Disappoint 

The All-Seeing, All-Knowing, Ever-Present God Of Grace 

Who Inhabits Glory 

But

We Can And Do Disappoint Our Fellow-Man 

Whom We Are Called To Love As We Love Ourselves 

By The Holy God Whom We Say That We Joyfully Serve! 

Dear Ones, 

Any Indulged Behavior That 

The Lord Jesus Cannot, Will Not, Bless 

Is 

Dishonest 

And

By Extension 

Is 

Disrespectful! 

Dishonesty Disrespects 

And

Disrespect Disappoints! 

In The Household Of Faith

We Have Free-Will, Choice, And Chance! 

Let Us Be Wise 

And 

Choose To Do Right Always 

Because 

It Is Good And Right 

And 

Our Lord Commands It! 

Let Us Live As Though We Truly Love 

And 

Serve And Worship The Living God 

And 

Not The Thing That Causes Jealousy Aka Idols

Even Our Own Self! 

Be Humble

Be Gracious

And 

Be Blessed! 

Peace! 

Sin ... The Gussied-Up Porker

Sin Is Criminal 

But It Is Not Justifiable ... In The Eyes Of Almighty God! 

Sin Can Be Accidental 

But It Is In Our Best Interests 

To Decidedly Consider Its Embrace To Be Suicidal! 

Beloved, 

No Christian Truly Trusting The Faithful Holy One

Will Ever Consider The Journey To Jesus And Joy 

To Be A Suicide Mission

A Mission Of No Return

And 

Deftly Decide To Have A Last Ditch Hurrah Blithely Sinning!

To Do Such Would Be To Give The Devil 

His Dastardly And Destructive Desire: 

We Can't Afford The Fall-Out 

For The Dues Are Usurious! 

Dear Ones, 

No Matter How Many Times You Wash A Porker

No Matter How Expensive The Pearls

Or How Rare The Perfume

A Gussied-Up Porker 

Will Always Be A Wallow In The Mud Besmirched Hog!

If We Do Not See Sin Through The Eyes Of Our Savior

Sin Will Always Be Enticing

Worth Following

Worth Excusing

And 

Worth Our Wholehearted Participation! 

Let Us, Instead, Look To Jesus Christ

The Author And Finisher Of Our Faith 

Who Died To Rid Us Of Sin

And Ever Lives To Have Us 

- Cleansed And Forgiven - 

Ride Home To Be With Him! 

Let's See Sin 

And

Walk On By On The Other Side Of The Road 

To Stand Where Salvation Is Stationed 

And 

Tenderly Calling To Us! 

Please Pray For Power ... And Press On To Glory! 

Jesus Saves Us From Sin: 

Walk In Accord With Him! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Converging Or Diverging!?! + PRAYER: Please Help Us To Pray Always!

 

Are You A Diverging From 

Or A Converging With The World Christian 

Aka Are You Different From The Worldly-Wise 

Or Are You As The Worldly-Wise!?! 

Dear Ones, 

If You Were In "The Line-Up" 

Would Anybody Say In Your Regard, As A Swear-Word: 

"This Person Is Not Like The Others!" 

Are You Standing Apart, Walking, Talking, Dressing, Behaving

As One Belonging To The Master Of The Wind 

Or As One Who Is Being Mastered By The Changing Winds Of 

This God-Forsaking World!?! 

The Lord Jesus Knows! 

Do You!?! 

Do I!?! 

Let's Seriously Think About It 

Because 

Our Being Possessors Of The Eternity Of Peace 

Depends Upon Our Answer! 

Peace! 

Prayer:

Heavenly Father,

We Come As Children Of Faith

And

With Pitiful Cry Ask You To Help Us

To Obediently, Enduringingly, Follow

The Living, Holy, Word Of Saving Truth

So That We May Know Of A Surety

Our Eternal Standing 

In Jesus Christ Our Glorious Lord!

Please Help Us To Pray Always

And

Not Faint At The Barbs

And

Threatenings Of The Evil One

But To Standing As The Faithful

Rooted And Grounded

Sheltered And Protected

Unmoved And Unafraid

Because

We Know That Our God Is Real And Returning

And

His Promises To Us Ever Sure

And

Only Require Our "Yes, Lord!" And "AMEN!"

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

We Humbly Pray And Plead!

AMEN.

DON'T PREY: Pray!

 

Being A Committed Christian Is Hard 

But 

Also Quite Satisfying

Because 

We Walk Under The Banner Of The Prince Of Peace 

Who Gives Us Oh His Peace That 

Passes Human Understanding! 

Our God Does Not Sleep 

For He Walks Too And Fro Among His People 

Over Whom Holy Angels Excelling In Strength Keep Watch 

As They Protect Them From The Schemes Of The Devil! 

Fret Not Thyself Because Of The Evil-Doers! 

Our God Keeps Detailed Records 

And 

No Wrong Done Against The Lord's Faithful 

Shall Go Unpunished! 

Beloved,

Please Keep Your Eye On The Heavenly Prize! 

Keep Your Hand On The Gospel Plow! 

Keep A Song Of Zion In Your Heart 

And 

On Your Tongue 

And 

Let Your Life Read Like 

The Living Truth That You Treasure! 

Let's Ever Remember That 

There Is No Law Against A Meek And Gentle Spirit

The Very Spirit That Our Lord Manifested 

On His Earthly Sojourn! 

Please Let The Holy Spirit Teach, Guide 

And 

Comfort You On This Pilgrim Journey! 

Judgment Day 

Is 

Coming For All Unrepentant Evil-Doers 

So By Grace ... Through Faith

Please Make Sure That You Are Not Among Them! 

Choose To Speak Peace 

And

Committed To The Cause Of Christ

Confidently ... Diligently

Go Faithfully On Our God's Errands! 

Truth Wins! 

Don't Prey: Pray! 

Faithfully Shine Brightly!

How Do You Spell Christian!?! 
COMFORTER! 

How Do You Spell Light-House!?! 
CHRISTIAN! 

Light Illuminates! 
Light Discloses! 
Light Comforts! 

Never Forget ...

Faithful Christians 
Are The True Light Of This Dying World 
Where People Genuinely Need The Living Word That 
Speaks Life 
And 
Comforts The Weary Soul 
And 
Lights The Way Home To The Father's House! 

Are You Being An Honest Light-House 
Or Are You Working For The Enemy Of Souls 
Sending ... Shining
Giving Off A Bewitching, Blighted, Light That 
Will Cause Lives To Be Ruined 
And
Even Lost For Eternity!?! 

The Light Of Truth 
Is 
Clear, Bright, White Light 
And 
Not A Disco-Ball And Psychedelic Lights 
Guaranteed To Confuse
Guaranteed To Lead One Astray! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous 
Is 
The Light Of Life: 
We Follow Him Where He Leads 
Doing What He Says 
And By So Doing
We May Point A Rabid Sinner Seeking Shelter 
To The Safe Harbor
To The Haven Of Blessed Rest! 

Shine Bright ...

Let Your Light Shine 
And 
Let The World See Jesus Christ Living In You! 

Brethren,

Dare To Light Up The Life Of Some Dear Soul 
So That They Are Blessed To Enter ... By Right
And 
Abide Forever
In The Safe Sheep Fold! 

Faithfully Shine Brightly, Beloved
Because
Someone ... By God's Grace
Is
Using Your Light To See The Path To The Forever Home
Where Eternal Peace Dwells!

Jesus' Peace

Is

Free To All!

Ingratitude Ain't A Good Look On A Christian!

 

We All Walk About Saying:

"God Is Good All The Time!"

And

Receive The Expected Response 

"All The Time, God Is Good!"

Question Is, Though

Does The Saying Mean Anything

Or Is It Just Code Talk For:

"I'm Just Trying To Make Myself Sound Like The Crowd

So That No One Suspects That 
I'm Totally Cheezed Off At The Lord

For Not Giving Me That Thing That

I Really, Really, Realllllly Wanted Yesterday!"

And

"I Never Get Anything At All That I Want!
Life's Not Fair!"
"Nobody Loves Me!"

These Dear Ones Forget
Ignore Or Misremember That 
We Get Blessings, Gifts, Benefits

Every Moment

Every Hour

Every Day Of Every Year That

We Have The Breath Of God 
Animating These Jars That We Call Flesh And Bone Bodies 

Compliments Of The Creator We Misuse
Abuse, Disregard, Denigrate, Despise

And

Less-Count! 

Ingratitude Is Not A Good Look On A Human

And 

An Even Worse Look On A Christian! 

Brethren, 

There Is Nothing More Egregious

More Annoying

Or More Aggravating Than 
Having To Deal With An Ingrate

A Person Who Doesn't Ever Say "Thanks For Your Kindness!" 

A Person Who Expects To Always Receive Good Gifts

Gives Nothing In Return

And 

Has The Unmitigated Gall To Be Upset 

Because 

The Gift Received Is Not The Gift That 
The Giver Should Have Known That 
The Ungrateful, Unthankful, Soul Truly Wanted! 

Worst Yet

Is 

The Soul Who Dares To Chastise The Giver 

For "Taking Soooo Long!" To Give Them The Much-Desired Gift! 

Beloved, 

Let Us Dare To Make It A Practice To Be Thankful 

And 

Grateful For All Of Our Blessings

And Then 

For Being Able To Give To And Bless Others 

Out Of Our Blessings

Our Good And Perfect Gifts From Our Father In Heaven

The Almighty God! 

Please Remember That 
Not All Gifts Are Available To Taste, See

Touch Or Feel! 

Let Us This Day 

Give Our Dear Father Grateful Thanks 

And 

Praise 

For Faith, Hope, Truth, Mercy

Grace, Provision And Protection

For Jesus Christ Who Saves

For The Comfort Of The Holy Spirit

For The Protection Of The Holy Angels

For The Deed To The Family Home In Glory

For Our Walk Through This Vale Of Tears

For Our Time In The Crucible For The Perfection Of Holy Character

And 

For The Gift Of Prayer That 
Causes The Recipient To Receive Even As He Is Using It! 

Father, 

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

We Love, Bless, And Thank You

For All You Have Done

Is Doing

And

Shall Do For Us 

Even Right Now:

We Are Telling Everybody

About The Favor That You Show To Us! 

Peace Be Upon Us All! 

CHRISTIAN: Ruminant

A Working, Watching, Waiting, Wise

Enduringly Faithful Christian
Is
A Ruminant!

I Don't Want To Be A Cow! 

You're Not Going To Be A Literal Cow! 

It's A Figure Of Speech

To Give You A Profound Idea

To Show An Ideal Attitude! 

Take A Thought On This:

The Brown Cow

Eats Green Grass

And

Gives White Milk

Which Makes Yellow Cheese!

We Are Talking Major, Unimaginable
Mind-Boggling, Fait Accompli, Changes!

Oh! Okay!
In That Case, You May ... With Agility
Proceed To Tell Me That About Which I Must Ruminate!

Whoa!
Such Formal Language!

Sweet Girl, 
If You Have Ever Seen A Cow
A Spiffy, Fat, Cow Ruminating
You Would Understand That 
Rumination Is Serious Business 
And As Such
Warrants The White Glove, Formal Language, Treatment!

I Hear You!

Okay, Guys!
Enough With The Almost Jokes!

In Keeping With Our Foray Into Cow Chewing
Think About This:

One Mouth Full Of Grass
And
Four Stomachs
Is 
The Equivalent Of The Best Food Processor
Blender, Mixer, Juicer Combined Plus Some
To Extract Every Last Iota Of Goodness
From That Grass To Do A Body Good
And
Make One The Very Best Producer
In The Service Of The Householder ... The Shepherd
The Lord King!

Madame The Cow Is No Slouch
Is Never A Procrastinator
And
Is Decidedly Not A Sluggard
And
She Will Not Be Deterred From Her Assigned Task!
What She Starts She Finishes
And
What She Produces Says Plainly That
She Accomplished The Mission To Which
Her Master-Maker Did Surely Assign Unto Her!

I Wonder How Many Of Us Higher Beings
- Us Christians -
Really Take To Heart The Word Of The Lord
That We Are To Search The Scriptures ... Diligently
As For Hidden Treasure
To Seek God And To Find Him
To Hide The Word Of The Lord In Our Hearts
So That We May Not Sin Against Him
Who Can Destroy Us Body And Soul In Hell!?!

You Know, Sometimes I Really Can't Deal With You!
Everybody Else Coats The Hard Subjects In Sweet Oil
So That It Can Slide Down A Person's Throat
Without Causing You To Gag Or Be Tortured
And You  ... You ... You Just Ram Things
Down People's Throats Without A By-Your-Leave!
Couldn't You Just Ease Up A Teeny Tiny Bit
And Help Us To Chew A Bit Before We Swallow!?!

No!

Oh, Come On!
You Don't Have To Be Hard-Case!

Yes, I Do!
We Are Sinners!
If We Confess And Repent Of Known Sin
We Are Sinners-Saved By Grace!
If We Love The Lord Christ, We Keep His Commandments!
If We Follow His Example Of Obedience
His Commission To Go Into The World
His Words Of Exhortation
And
Operate By The Faith Given Unto The Saints
We Will Accept The Indictment
Repent Of The Sin
Do The First Works, The Second, The Third
As In Whatever Is Required
And
We Will Swaddle Ourselves In The Living, Saving, Word
Until It Comes Out Of Our Ears ... If Possible!

Oh, Mavis!
I Really Wish You Would Learn When To Shut-Up
And Not Make Sister Belnavis Upset!
We Are In For It Now And Here. It ... Comes!

Brethren,

It Is Time To Stop Pussy-Footing Around The Scriptures!
Look Around You!
The Prophecies Are Being Fulfilled!
People Are Dying Stupidly Because Of Lies!
People Are Dying Really Stupidly Because Of
Candy-Coated Scriptures
Sugary-Treat Gospel
Taffy Truth
And
Bubble-Gum Beliefs!
This Ain't The Time For Flowery-Tasting
Cotton Candy Apologetics
With God Is Love As Lubrication!

We Need To Get In Bed With Jesus ... The Word!
We Need To Get Out Of Bed With Jesus ... The Word!
We Need To Eat Jesus ... The Word!
We Need ... The Word 
Morning, Evening, Noon And Night!

Look, Children!
Don't You See What Is Happening!?!
The Wicked, The Heathen, The Daring Doubters
What They Believe In ... They Believe In
And 
They Are Willing To Die For It
To Make You, Me, Us, Die For It!

They Want Us To Live Their Lie
But
We Can't Because We Have His Truth!
His Truth Is Our Weapon!
His Truth Is Our Shield!
His Truth Is Our Only Defense
And
If You Don't Know How To Use, Utilize Your Weapon
You're Going To Die On The Battlefield!

If You Are Still Doubtful Of What I Say
Think About This:

The Lord Sees!

The Lord Knows!

The Lord Is ...!

The Lord Feeds!

The Lord Leads

And

Whoever He Feeds And Leads

By Willing, Cooperative, Consent

Is

Forever Blessed 

And 

Saved 

And

Redeemed At The Sound Of The Last Trumpet

So Chew And Greedily Swallow The Good-Word Food 

And

Live In His Love Forever And Ever!

AMEN!!!
