CHOOSING SATAN OR THE SAVIOR: You Cannot Be Forced!

Beware The Handshake
The Pat On The Shoulder
The Kiss On The Cheek
The Knife In The Back
From The Friend Who Is Foe
The Foe Who Is Fiend
The Merciless Adversary
Whose Heart Is Devilish ... Unclean!

Look Up To Jesus
The Author ... The Finisher Of Our Faith
The Giver Of Good Gifts
The Lord Of Creation
The God Holy Whose Words Are Ever Plain
Who Blesses
Who Rewards
Whose Tongue Is Not Forked
Who Heart Is Pure ... Wisdom
Who Love For Us ... To Save Us
Caused Him To Earth To Come Down!

One Is Light, Love, Hope, Truth, Righteousness!
The Other Is Darkness, Hate, Despair, Lies, Unrighteousness!
The One Who Is Light 
Is 
Love Offering Eternal Life
In The Mansions Of The Blessed!

The Other Who Is Darkness 
Is 
Hate Offering Eternal Damnation
With A Christless Life As A Precursor
To A Godless Death
Leading To Condemnation
And
The Prophesied Damnation
And
Eternal Separation From Him Who
Paid With His Holy, Blameless, Life
To Rid Our Souls Of Known Sin's Shame!

Jesus Loves Us 
Died To Save Us
Lives To Save Us
And 
He Saves Us!
Satan Hates Us
And 
Works To Destroy Us

And

We Have The Choice To Make
As To Whom We Shall Follow!

Will You Choose Life As Found In Christ Jesus
Or
Will You Choose Death As Found In Satan
And
From Which, Friend
There Is No Coming Back To Living Again!?!

Live As One Forgiven
And
Living For Jesus Christ
And 
Die As One Faithful To Jesus Christ
And
Rise To Live ... To Eternally Live
With Jesus Christ The Righteous Judge
The Conquering King!

Live In Sin For Satan
And
With Sin Unconfessed
And
Unforgiven
Die Willfully Unrepentant For Satan
And
Rise To Die Again ... Damned
Eternally Separated From The Lord Of Life
Jesus Christ The Lord 
The King Of Earth And Glory
The God Of Creation
Our Only Savior!

The Decision Is Yours ... Alone!
You Cannot Be Forced!
You Cannot Be Coerced:

You Will Be Encouraged To Deny Self, Sin And Satan
And
To Choose Life In Christ By Christ
Through The Holy Spirit Of Truth

And

You Will Be Sorely Tempted To Exalt Self
And
To Deny Jesus Christ's Personal Sacrifice For You 
And
Denigrate His Power To Save You
By The Adversary Of Souls, Satan!

You Will Be Tempted
But
Never Beyond Your Endurance To Resist
When You Reside In The Lord's Camp
Because
With The Temptation You Receive
- Which Is Common To Man -
The Lord Will Provide You With A Way Of Escape
So That In Triumph ... Against The Merciless Adversary
You May Victoriously Stand!

Brethren, Beloved

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation!
Grace Is Free!
Mercy Is Free!
Salvation Is Free!
Faith Is Free!
Forgiveness Is Free!
Blessings Are Free!
Heaven Is Free
But
To Get To Hell
You Will, Personally, For Your Own Ticket
With Your Own Blood
Your Purchased Soul
Have To Pay!

When We Don't Know Who Jesus Is

We Also Do Not Know Or Appreciate

The Blessings And Privileges Available To Us

Or Are Able To Utilize The Gifts Of Love

Presented To Us For Our Own Soul's Salvation

By Available Grace

And

Free Mercy

Compliments Of The Lord Christ

- Almighty God With Us -

Who Is For Us!

Choose Life ... In Jesus Christ!

TOMORROW, TOMORROW: Today!

I Was In The Popular Station Of Life!
The Get Away Platform Was Crowded For Sure!
Everybody I Observed Had Their Tickets Waving
Including That Big Man Named Gully Boar!

PIS Aka The Passenger Information System Was Whirring!
Myriad Transports To Tomorrow Were Scheduled

And

All Were Plainly Noted 

To Be Exactly On Time!

More And More People Were Arriving

But
Only Those For Living For Jesus
Salvation Way
Jesus Christ Saves
Final Generation
Today's The Day
And
Gateway To Tomorrow
Were Departing!

Grumbling Was Starting!
It Soon Became A Dull Roar!
Security Wasn't Bothered It Was Said

Because
They'd Seen It All Before!

Step Back A Bit ...

The Station Of Life
Is
An Ever-Moving Turn-Table!
Destinations Are Marked Plainly

And
Boldly Underscored!

Travellers ... Having Free Will

And

Free Choice

- No Coercion, No Bumping Up Nor Down -

Choose Their Preferred Destination
And
By Confidence In Self
In Satan
In Sin
In Salvation
In The Savior

In Grace And Mercy

In Temporal ... Or Eternal Security
They Decide If At Living
They Win Or The Lose!

Life Is Spent ...

Tired Of Wandering

I Paused To Wonder

And

Without Preamble

A Beautiful White Dove Landed On My Shoulder

- I Wasn't Startled Or Afraid -

And

Whispered Sweetly In My Ear:

Tomorrow Is Not Promised To Mortal Man!

Only Those Who Choose Life Eternal

With The Blessed Son Of Man

Shall Arrive At The Day

That Surely Will Not End!

They Will Arrive At The Day Where Life Is Eternal

Where He Who Made Time For Man

Extends His Welcoming Hand

To Those Who Worship Gladly And Believe Boldly

Who Trust The Word And Obey Despite Discomfort

Who Walk Wise And Pray Persistently

Who Look Up And Practice Godly Fear

Who Confess Sin And Repent Humbly

Who Love The Lord And Listen To The Spirit's Still Voice

Who Seek Righteous And Don't Trust Their Own Understanding

Who Reflect On God's Goodness And Rest By His Grace

Who Hope With Certainly And Endure Faithfully

And

Reach Out To The Lord Christ 

The Cure For All That Ails Fallen Man

Who Made Blessed Provision For His Children

Who Is Touched By Your Infirmities

Who Was Tried, Tested, Tortured And Died

Who Overcame So That You Can

Who Is Calling, Ever Calling

Extending His Sure, Steady, Strong, Unshakeable, Helping Hand!

Grow Where You Are Planted!

Live Triumphantly In His Name Where You Are

And

Bless Others While You Can

For There Is No Life

And

No Love

In The Grave Where Thou Goest!

Book Your Berth For Surpassing Glory Now!

The Best Day Is Today!

Choose Christ In This Now-Acceptable Time

And

You Shall Enjoy The Glorious New Birth!

Dying, Dying, Slowly Dying

Are The Unprofitable Things Of This Earth!

My Head Felt Light!
My Eyes Flared!
My Ears Tingled!

Doubt Departed!

Hope Appeared!
Grace Smile!
Mercy Spread Her Arms Wide!
Love Exploded!
Truth Stood Up

And
Deceitful, Murdering-Hope Satan Ferociously Cried!

No Bragging Allowed ...

I Am Free: So Very Free! 

I Am Free Indeed!
I Am Touched By The Crimson Flow
Which I Had Not Known I Needed
Until I Had Encountered
The One Called The Door!

I Have No Desire To Wrestle With The Impossible
The Tomorrow Touted
By The One Whose Time Is Short
The One Who Encourages Us
Our Babies, Our Future
Our Certain Hope To Abort

And
To Store Up Lust-Driven Experiences

And

Things

- Supposed Treasures -
Which Will Not Consuming-Fire Survive
Which Will Not Survive The Journey
The Journey To Eternal Life!

The Facts Remain ...

No Matter How Much Weight

How Much Money 

You Gain Or Lose

The Mortal Strife Is Fought Today!

Repentance For Sin Must Be Rendered Today

And
The Decision For The Lord Christ Must Be Made Today
For That That Is Promised To Man

- Known Resident In The Vale Of Tears -
Will Not Be Available Tomorrow
Because
By The Sovereign Will Of The Eternal Holy God

It Is Only Available

Accessible

Usable

Today, Today

No Matter What The Adversary Says!

Man's Day

Man's Hour

Man's Moment In The Sun

To Know The Son

Is

Always Today!

Be Wise:

Carpe Diem!
