HAPPY SABBATH + Fools Rush In!?!

There Is Nothing More Foolish Than 
Providing An Answer To The Unasked Question! 

In The Old Days 
They Used To Call People Who Did That
"A Real Cubbah!" 

I Remember That

And It Was A Stinging Indictment! 

Please, I Beseech You
Don't Practice Folly To Look Wise! 

Only Fools Go Where Angels Fear To Tread! 

Some People May Think That You're A Fool 

But 

Please Don't Give Them The Opportunity 
To Prove It By Opening Your Mouth 
Prematurely And Presumptuously! 

My Granny-Ma U-sed To Say:

"Silence Is Golden! 

Speak When You're Spoken To 

But Only After Having Prayed 
For Wisdom From The Lord!" 

Those Are Words Truly Worthy Of 
Willing Acceptance And Regular Practice
But

I'm Sure That You Know That 
Some People Always Want To Have The First 

And 
The Last Word

And 
Having More Testicular Fortitude Than Commonsense
Are Ever Desirous Of Shedding Light ... Even In Bright Daylight 

And 
Avidly Display Grand "Insight"

When Exercising Commonsense Would Make Practical Sense! 

These Persons Would Do Well To Follow 
Jesus Christ's Perfect Example Of Reticence
- In The Time Required -

Before The Deceitful Scribes And Pharisees

The Sanhedrin

Pontius Pilate

And

King Herod! 

We Would All Do Well To Accept That
There Is A Time For Everything Under The Sun
And
Understand That 
Knowing The Time To Keep Silent Is One Of Them!

Now, I'm Also Certain That You Know That

Certain People Amongst Us

Claim To Always Have The Perfect Answer 
To Questions That Haven't Received Air! 

Oh, Yes! 

And They're Getting Real Bold Nowadays! 

Yeah! 

They're Even In The Church

And Are Claiming Special Powers

From The Holy Spirit To Read People's Minds! 

Brethren, 

Be Warned! 

Be Watchful! 

Be Wary

And

Beware! 

The Ability To Read Minds Aka Mind-Reading 

Is 

Safely In The Domain Of Almighty God ... Alone 

And 

Any Created Being 

Be It Human 
Or Fallen Angel Masquerading As A Human

Who Says That They Can Read Your Mind 

And 

Know What You're Going To Do Before You Do It 

Is 

A Liar And A Tool Of Satan!

There Is No Light In Them! 

If Satan And Fallen Angels

Aka Demons

Could Really Read Minds

They Would Have Known That
Killing Jesus Christ Was A Really Bad Idea

Because

The End Result Spelt Their Complete Destruction! 

I Hear That!!! 

Brethren, Beloved

Guard Your Heart ... Your Mind

And 

Keep Your Eyes On Jesus Christ 

Who Safely Leads His Children 
 Along The Treacherous Paths Of This Life

And

Don't Ever Forget That
We Have All The Other Sight That We Will Ever Need
In The Person 
And 
The Working Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Who Will Teach Us All Things That We Need To Know!

We Are Nearing Home
And
There Are Pitfalls At Every Turn

But

Please Don't Add To Your Peril

By Adding Folly To The Mix! 

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation
Because 
There Will Be No Fools In Heaven! 

Let's Trust In Jesus Christ For He Is Our Peace
And

Let's Lean On The Lord's Infinite Understanding 
And 
Truly Live
For He Is The Light Of Our Lives!! 

Judge Samson And The SIF + PRAYER: I Am Your Servant, Lord!

True Greatness

Is Controlling  Personal Passions

And

Not Letting Passions

And

Defects In The Character

Control The Will!

*********

Sampson Betrayed His God
AND
Himself
By Having No Self Control!
His Integrity Was Betrayed By
"She Pleaseth Me Well!"
AND
Thereby
His Inability
To Utter A Firm "No!"
In The Face Of Strong Temptation
AND
The Urge Toward Raging Sin
Was Undeniably 
Stripped Away!

Where Was His SIF?!

MIA!
AWOL!
Absconded!
Done Run Away!

Yup!

What Is SIF?!

S. I. F.  Is
Self-control
Integrity
AND
Firmness!

Sense Lacked
Sensibility!
His Secret To Strength Was Under Attack
AND
The Desire Of His Flesh
Unchecked
- A Stumbling Block -
Ushered Samson
Into The Hand Of Satan
Who Didn't Fear
His Clear Weakness
To Hijack!

Master Your PASSIONS!

Master Your SELF!

And

Master Your MIND

By Being To Almighty God

Devotedly INCLINED!

God Gives Unto Us
The Secret Of Our Success
- Hold On To Your S. I. F -
It's Your Master Control!

Let The Lord Lead You
AND
Holy Angels Will Defend
AND
Don't Be Overcome
By Taste Buds
That Caused
The Ultimate Destruction
AND
Death
Of The Strongest Of Strong Men!

God Bears With Men Long
Issuing Calls To Repentance
BUT
Continuing Descents
Into Known Corruptions
Will Ultimately Lead Us
To A Decimating Volcanic Eruption
Which
If We Are Not Completely Abandoned
To Self And To Sin
Will Lead Us
To True Self Discovery
AND
Confession
AND
Repentance
AND
Asking The Living God
For Mercy's Help
AND
Grace's Full Restitution!

Master Your PASSIONS!

Master Your MIND!

Live In God's LIGHT

And

Leave The Urge To Sin BEHIND!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Am Your Servant

And

Keep Me Willing

Is My Heart's Honest Prayer!

Let My Work Be The Work

You Desire From Me

And

Help Me To Be Joyful

In The Doing

Doing It All Quite Gladly!

I Pray, Lord

To Be A Co-worker

A Co-worker With Thee

Advancing The Work

Of

The Lord's Coming Kingdom

Pointing Souls Unto Thee!

Please Fix The Defects In My Character

Fashioning For Me A Garment Of Praise

Granting Me The Victory

Over Untoward Passions

So That I May Rejoice

In The Glory Days!

I Love You, Lord

And

In Jesus' Name I Make My Plea!

 AMEN.

Prayer: God-Sense!

Father, Grant Me The God-sense

To Recognize and Reject the Nonsense

Being $old as Commonsense

To Your People for Ten Cents

By those with a Truly Sick Sense

of Bible Truth and Morality!

Amen.
