Truly Takes Into Account His ... Our ... Desperate Need For Revival And Reformation
The Perfect Gift ... The Lord Doesn't Offer Salvation Just Because He Has A Gift He Must Give!
He Offers Us Salvation
Because
We So Desperately Need It!
Without Jesus Christ's Free-To-All Gift Of Salvation
We Are Truly Movie Zombies
Walking Dead
Eating ... Not For Nourishment
But Because
It's Something To Do On Schedule!
The Theatre Of Mankind ... Prodigal Son
Pharisee Priest
Publican Collector
Best Most Least
Wanting To Run
Loving To Lead
Hand Held Out Guaranteed Money To Steal
All Three Were Beloved By The Father
First One Running Away
Last Two In The Temple
Both Uttering Necessary Prayer!
The Impatient Runner Had Taken The Blessing Given!
The Proud Priest Blessed Himself!
The Outcast Collector Pleaded For A Blessing
As He ... His Sin ... Did Importunately Confess!
Position ... The Runner Was A Well-Beloved Son!
The Priest Well-Loved His Prime Position And
The Collector ... Universally Hated Desired A New And Loved Position!
All Three Had Need Of The Lord
The Father
The Great Forgiving Savior The Blessed-Forever Holy One!
Insight ... In The Day Of Awareness
All Three Saw Their Hope
And Without Exception
Repaired To Him Who Could Feed Their Souls
And Not Cast Them Out
Into Outer Darkness
Making Them In Despair Shout!
The Runaway Prayed!
The Runaway Turned
Back
To The House Of The Father
Where He Was Joyfully Welcomed ... Home!
The Priest In Pride
Being God To Himself
Prayed With ... To ... Himself
Having No Humility
Bereft Of True Need
And Having No Heart For The Living God
Proved Himself A Consecrated Fraud!
Truly Christian ... Oh, Collecter Most Humble!
Oh, Heart Most Contrite!
Oh, Soul Needing Pardon
Calling For Mercy To Bring Light
Your Lord Hears Your Crying!
Your God Breaks Sin's Chains And Gladly Relieves Pain!
Your Master Invites You
Into His Loving, Warm, Embrace!
Please Raise Your Head Beloved:
He Is Lifting You Up
To Wipe Your Tears From Your Stained Face! Exercise Your Daily Gift Of Living, Holy, Daily Faith
For
You Are Truly Being Blessed!
Brethren, If We Would Remember Two Words
- Five Letters In Total - And Take Their Counsel To Heart We Would Be Well-Off Even If The Heavens Were To Fall!
God ... Is!
What Comfort This Is To The Weary Soul The Troubled Spirit The Pain-Wracked Body The Despairing Heart! Almighty God: The Father Jesus Christ The Son, Our Creator Savior, Redeemer, Friend And The Holy Spirit Of Truth, Our Teacher Our Comforter, By Whom We Are Sealed Against The Day Of Wrath Reign And Rule And Are Desirous Of Our Salvation And Blessing And Have Done All And Are Doing All To Help Us ... If ... We Would But Believe And Trust Jesus Christ Plead For The Outpouring Of That Sweet Spirit And Live By Leaning Completely On Our God Who Was ... Is Now And Ever Shall Be Mighty To Save Whosoever Will Receive Him ... Without Doubt! He Who Dares To Believe And Trust Wins The Crown! Have Faith In God: You're Not Alone!
Prideful Indulgence
Pleasurable Self-Indulgence
And
Undisturbed Self-Indulgence
Cared Not One Wit For Soul-Care Nor Self-Denial
And
They Valiantly Strove To Forget The True And Living God!
To Put It Quite Plainly
These Three Set The Bar Real High When It Came To
Indulging Self-indulgence ... Undisturbed!
They Epitomised Self-Delusion
And
They Were Pleased To See Some Folk Following Them
Some Other Folk Desiring To Follow Them
And
All Blindly Emulating Their Light Grasp
On Things Which Vigilant Christians
Ought To Take To The Lord Christ
In Prayer
Or Prayer And Fasting!
Misguided Thinking ...
These Moojins
- Certain People Even Called Them Moon-Donkeys -
Considered Life To Be "Just For Living!"
AndThe Non-Stop Party
For Having The Good Old Blast!
On The Issue Of Jesus Christ's Gift Of Faith
And
Increasing Faith
They Had No Time Nor Thoughts As Regards
Talking About Faith
Living In Faith
Or Working Their Faith
So Increasing Faith Was Not Even A Blip On Their Radar!
As Was Inevitable
A. Preacher Mann Came Into Town
And
At The Revival Time Crusade - Which Everybody Seemed To Be Attending -
He Gave Them The Length Of His Tongue
Telling Them About Unchecked Self
Ignored Brother
And
Can't Be Bothered With Other
Soul Lover
And
Salvation Cover!
Preacher Mann ... A Real Preacher Of Righteousness
Had A Brief From The Eternal
The One God Holy, Just, Kind And True
And
He Was Laying It All On The Line - No Holds Barred -
But
With Compassionate Kindness
Having Recognized And Accepted
And
Believing That
But For The Grace Of The Living God
There He Walked, Too!
Thinking Deep Thoughts ...
You Know
When Self And Indulgence Contemplate
Communicate
And
Commiserate
It Is Inevitable That They Will Become One
And
Through The Short Span Of Mortal Life - Which They Disavow -
They Will Seek To Transit ... Undisturbed
By Working, Watching, Waiting, Faith Now
And Awesome, Dreadful, Sight Later!
Thought Patterns Are Juiced ...
Spirituality Was For Saps!
Right-Doing Was A Rip-Off!
Truth Was A Tear-Head!
Blessings Were Bought!
Belief Was Blighted, Benighted
And
The Name Of Christ Was Bandied About Like A Curse!
Cleansed Eyesight ...
For The Tripping Trio
Blinding Awareness Of Purchased Soul-Condition
Put All O' Their Behavior Into Instant Focus
And
Finding Help
Became Their Operating Locus!
Suddenly
Truth And Righteousness Were No Longer Hocus Pocus!
Light Was Shining In Dark Places
And
They Could See Of Sordid Past ... Innumerable Traces
Truth Is Often Stranger Than Fiction
And
Without Blinking
They Rapidly Made The Decision That
Base And Brutish Were Their Known And Practiced Predilections!
They Availed Themselves
After A Brief Battle With Fallen Angel
Evil Spirit
And
Damned Demon
They Gracelessly, Fearlessly, Embraced
Soul-Searching
Confession Of Known Sin
Repentance Toward The Father
And
Hungered For
And
Embraced The Daily Gift Of The Faith Of Christ Jesus!
They Finally Recognized
And
Avidly Appreciated
The Unmerited Favor Aka Grace Of The Eternal God!
They Finally Saw Through
The Machinations Of King Fraud!
The True Light ...
Finally, Actually, Really Seeing Through New Eyes
They Indulged No More Random Acts Of Rejecting Truth
No More Living Like A Louse
No More Neglecting The Soul House
No More Operating With Vengeful Spirits
And
Indulging The Gainsaying Joust!
The Cross Of Christ Became Their Crest
And Accepting That There Is Eternal Life With Christ
They Chose Water Baptism
Aka Full Body Immersion!
They Chose The Life Of Light!
They Boldly Changed Sides
And Wittingly Walked The Strait And Narrow Way
Unto Eternal Life!
Broadway No Longer Held Any Appeal
And
They Chose To Indulge In Destroying
The Known-Demonic Device!
Christ's Love Became Their Life
And
Effectively
They Participated Actively
- Against Satan, The One Base - In The Mortal Strife!
They Desire The Glorified Life
And
They Learned To Pray!
Brethren,
As Committed Christ-Followers
We Are Called To Pray Without Ceasing!
We Are To Go To The Lord ... In Faith
- No Doubting -
Consistently, Persistently,
To The Point That, If God Were A Man
And
Able To Be Wearied By Our Constant Cries For Aid
He Would Say,
"Enough Already! Take This!"
Almighty God Is Not A Man
And
Our Prayers Are Not A Bother!
Our Persistence Says,
"Lord, I Believe!
Please Help Me!
From You, A Gift I Desire To Receive!"
Bless Yourself By Praying With Passion!
God Hears With Love And Compassion!
Pray According To God's Will For You
And
You Will Be Gloriously Blessed!
That's A Memorialized Promise Of God!
Two Types Of People Different As Chalk Is From Cheese Different In Character Life Dress And Conversation One Will Suffer Temporal Strife One Will Lose Eternal Life
Hmmm ...
As Strange As It May Seem Both People Purport To Serve
The Same Holy God Yet, Who He Is To Each Is
Cause For Conversation Deep
Not Conversation Cheap
The Facts Make It Plain ...
They Can't Both Be Right One Of Them Is Wrong But The One Who Is Not Right With God Is
Seen In Carnal Eyesight
To Be Temporally Strong
Hindsight Is Not As Good As
Insight And Foresight ...
If Only Men Could See As The Living God Sees Oh, That Men Would Elevate Their Gaze Oh, That We Would Submit Ourselves To The Living God And Refuse To Have Anything Whatsoever To Do With The Fallen Angel Who Kept Not His Exalted Place
And
Who Now Lives In Perpetual Disgrace
No Excuses Accepted ...
Greed Envy Jealousy ... Sin Without Cause, Without Justification Enter Into Our Hearts
But We Who Trust The Lord Of Life The Savior Of Us All Run Speedily To The Rock Of Ages And
Upon His Dear Name Call
Because
We Have No Desire To Continue The Fall
Comfort And Joy ...
Faith Grace
Confession Repentance
Mercy Forgiveness
Peace
What A Glorious Release Is
Gained By The Prayer Of Faith To The God Of All Grace In The Name Of Him Who Died Who, As Creator Sustainer Savior Redeemer Lord God King And Friend To End Will Not Suffer His Committed-To-Christ Child To Be Offended Upended By Satan, The Murderer Called First

We Don't Lean On Our Own Understanding!
