SANCTIFICATION: The Life-Long Work ... And Personal Lots Of Land


We Are Dearly Loved By Our Creator-God
And
All The Heavenly Intelligences
And
We Are Devilishly Hated By The Satan ... The Adversary
And
All Of His Fallen-Angel Demonic Force! 

We Need To Know With Whom It Is That We Cast Our Lot
Aka Gain Our Fortune! 

Indeed, Beloved!
Look No Further Than The Word Of Good King David
- Who Made His Calling And Election Sure -
To See How It Is Done! 
He Knew His God
And
He Made His Public Declaration!

The Day Is Soon Coming 
When We All Must Make Public Our Own Declaration
Stating Clearly That It Is With The Lord Christ That 
We Faithfully Choose To Stand Up
And
To Be Counted For His Living Kingdom!

Hear, Hear!
The Handwriting Is Already On "The Wall!"


Psalm 16:5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup ...


Brethren,

When You Know Who Is Your Savior
You Will Surely Recognize Who Is Your Adversary!

Satan Is The Liar
The Thief
And 
The Destroyer-Murderer! 

Jesus Christ Is The Truth,
The Provider
And 
The Life Giver-Sustainer! 
Let's Learn The Difference
And 
Act Accordingly! 

Please Remember This ... 

All Who Turn From Satan Unto The Lord 
With Humble Confession Of Sin
And 
With Repentance
Have Forgiveness For Sin 
And 
Cleansing From Unrighteousness! 

We Who Are Forgiven 
Have A Sure Inheritance In The Land Of The Blessed
A Lot ... A Personal Parcel Of Ground
As Is Promised To Those Who Are Sanctified
Aka Set Apart For The Lord's Holy Use! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Be Fooled! 
Don't Fool Yourself
And
Don't Let Anyone Fool You!

Sanctification 
Is 
A Life-Long Work
And 
Only Those Who Endure All Things For The Lord
Until The Day Of Death 
Or The Lord Christ Comes For His Children
Shall Possess The Land ... Their Inheritance! 

Talking About Being Sanctified 
Is 
Cheap And Easy
And 
Doesn't Cost Anything! 
Living In Obedience
And 
With Enduring Faith, However
Is 
Going To Be Expensive  ... Hard 
And 
Painful: Do Not Fear! 

Jesus Christ Belongs To Us
And
We Belong To Him!
Our Jesus Christ 
Is 
The Great Physician 
And
He Owns Everything In The Cosmos
So We've Got Means! 

Please Confidently Place Your Life In Jesus' Holy Hands
And 
Please Hold Out Your Cup For His Blessings 
By Exercising Your Daily Gift Of Faith! 

Please Choose To Believe The Word Of The Lord
And 
Confidently Choose To Trust The Lord's Sacrificial Love For You
And 
Dare To Be Eternally Blessed! 

Peace Be Upon Us All
In The Holy Name Of The Lord Jesus Christ
As He Blesses Us All ... By His Sweet Spirit
The Holy Spirit Of Truth
As We Make Our Pilgrim Journey!

Let's Think About ... Home!

AMEN!!!

Confess ... And Repent!?!

Confession Is Good For The Sin-Sick Soul!
Repentance Is Good If You Desire
In Sin
Not To Become Hardened, Hard-Hearted, Cold!

But

Confession Cannot Be Coerced ...!

... Why Not!?! Isn't It The Way To Get A Guilty Plea!?!

You May Get A Guilty Plea
But
The Person Confessing Does Not Acknowledge
Believe Or Accept That He Is Guilty!
He Just Wants To Be Left Alone
And
He Does Not Acknowledge That
He Knows That He Is A Sinner 
Or That Jesus Christ Paid ... Unfairly
With His Innocent Blood
To Purchase A Pardon For All Mankind
And More Particularly ... Get This
All Those Individuals
Who Know That They Are Sinners
That They Are Guilty Of Sin
That They Are Sorry For Their Sin
That They Need Forgiveness
That They Need Cleansing
That They Need The Savior
That They Believe The Savior Saves
That They Believe The Savior Can Personally Save Them
That They Believe The Purchased Salvation Is Real
That They Believe The Salvation Is Fixed
And
That It Fixes Them In Their Need
And
Helps Them To Freely Walk Away From Sin ... Forever

And

It Gets Them Homed And Housed!

Vandee!?!

Yes, Ollie!?!

Would You Please, I Beseech You
Explain What You Mean By Homed And Housed 
Because You Are Making It Seem Like That Sinner Is 
Holding A Piece A Prison!?!

Far From It!
By That Stellar Move
He Is Adopted Into The Family Of The True, Living, Holy
Eternal, Giving, Forgiving, Blessing, Just, Jealous, God
And 
Welcomed Into The Home Circle
And
Assigned A Personal Place
In One Of The Many Mansions
In The Father's House!

If What You Say Is Bible Truth ...!

... It Is ... !

... Then We Have A Serious Problem!

I Really Don't See How We Have A Problem:

We Sin!
We Pick Our Pay Check: Death
But
If We Acknowledge That We Are Sinners
We Have A Savior! 

When We Confess Our Known Sins
We Take The Hand Of The Savior
We Repent ... Turn Away From That Sin
The Savior Gives Us The Personal Pardon
The Savior Cleanses Us Of Our Own Sin
We Walk In The Newness Of His Holy Life
We ... Former Strangers ... Are Adopted
We Receive The Deed To The New Residence
And
Nobody In Our Father's House
Creeps Around Us Watching, Waiting
Because 
They Are Expecting Us To Go And Sin Again! 

The Problem Still Remains! 
The Current Voicings In The Public Square, Say That
Telling People, Calling People Sinners
Is Not Kind Nor Gentle! 
It Hurts People's Feelings
And It Makes Them Very Sad! 

I Know! 
A Priest Was Given A Backseat For 
Offending A Family By Calling Their Son
- Who Committed Suicide - 
A Sinner At The Funeral! 

Time's Getting Short! 

Sin's Getting Long In The Tooth! 
Ignoring Sin
Reframing Sin
Repackaging Sin
Relegating
Is Not Going To Change Sin
Is Not Going To Make Sin Good
Is Not Going To Make Sin Cheap
Is Not Going To Make The Consequence Palatable ... Soft
Is Not Going To Reverse The Cost Of Sin To Almighty God
Is Not Going To Put Jesus Christ's Innocent Blood Back In His Veins
Is Not Going To Turn Satan Into A Saint
Is Not Going To Cause Sin The Human Soul Not To Taint
Is Not Going To Make The Lake Of Fire 
A Poster With Red Paint
So Be Bold ... And Be Humble
Confess Your Sin
Admit That You Tumbled
Repent And By God's Grace
Turn Your Life Around
And
In The Day Of Accounts
Paid In Full
Against Your Cleansed Name
Shall Surely Be Surely Found! 

I Believe We Should Tell This Story Around The Town! 

Indeed! 
Jesus Christ Is Coming 
And 
He Will Be Here Before Very Long! 

Think About It:



Image result for 1 peter 4:14 kjv



The Servant Is Not Above His Master! 
Jesus Christ Was Evilly Spoken Of 
And 
We Who Bear The Name
Practice The Ways 
And 
Live The Blessed Christian Life 
Shall Certainly Hear Many Bad Words Uttered Against Us! 

The Christian Life Is Not A Style: 
Styles Change As Man's Tastes 
And 
Temperaments Change! 

The Christian Life 
Is 
A Reason For Living ... For Being
A Cause For Celebration
The Path To Glory
The Way Home To Our Father
Who Lovingly Calls Us To His Bosom ... To His Heart 
Which Will Not Leave Us Alone 
To Suffer For His Name's Sake! 

Be Glad
And 
Lift High The Cross Of Jesus 
Who Is Coming To Take His Faithful Ones 
To The Glorious, Forever, Home! 

Gladly Live For Jesus
And 
Be Forever Blessed!

HAPPY SABBATH + Professors Professing Profession Not In Their Possession!





I Professed Religion
AND
Religion Placed Me In A Church
BUT
- Truth Be Told -
My Character Shows
If 
I'm To Christ
Connected Or ... Not
AND
Determines Which Residence
- For Eternity -
I Deserve!

Church-Character
Or
Christ-Connected
Potato Tomato
Vegetable Fruit
I Say The Prayers!
I Give The Offerings!
I Pay The Tithes! - God Owes Me!
I Did Not Enter A Crap Shoot
So
When I Die - I Fly!

Hold Up, Big Man!
You Sound Like You And God Does Pitch Marbles!
You Must Be Drunk
For
You Are Beside Your Self!

The Only Thing God "Owes" You
FOR YOUR SINSIs A Six By Nine Grave
AND
At The End Of Time
A Permanent Bath
In The Fire And Brimstone Lake!
Are You Working For The Fake?!

But, Wait Though!
Why You Had To Go There?
You Can't Tek A Joke?
Your Sense Of Humor 'Pon A Lunch Break?!

I Have No Sense Of Humor
When It Comes To My Soul
AND
Neither Should You
IF
Highest Heaven 
- With The Lord Jesus Christ -
Is Your Goal!

I Used To Be Flippant
In Matters Of Faith!
Character Was An Alphabet Letter
AND
Lunch Was The Time For Grace!

Mercy Was An Old Slave
AND
Love Drove A Bank's Truck
AND
Jesus Was That Spanish Man
Who At The Store Sold Brooklax!

But ...

As Fate ...
Sorry ...
As The Lord Would Have It
I Met The Real Jesus
- Last Name Christ -
The Son Of The Father
Who Broke Satan's Trick Dice
AND
I Do Not Fear To Tell You
That I Have Been Changed
For
I Took Of Christ's Salvation
For A Repentance 
AND
Confession Exchange!

Sure You Did!

Brother, You Make Keep Your Skepticism
For
What I Say Is True!
Jesus Christ Set Me
On The Right Path Straight
AND
If You Let Him
He'll Give You A Fix-up, Too!

Jesus Took All The Garbage I Had!
He Forgave Me My Sin!
He Gave Me Free Grace
AND
True Mercy
AND
Set Aside For Me
In Heaven
- God's Home -
A Personally-Prepared Place!

I Have Invited The Holy Spirit
To Abide Within Me
AND
Though Facing Fierce Opposition
I Am Letting The Holy Spirit Have His Way
AND
Jesus Christ's Character
Is Being Revealed In Me!

I Now Have A Teachable Spirit!
I Approach The Living God As Would A Child
ANDI Am Determined
In The Tents Of Wickedness
Nevermore To Abide!

God Is Good All The Time!
All The Time
- Thank God -
God Is Good
Or I Would Not Be Here
To Tell You How I
In The Faith Of Jesus
With The Comfort Of The Holy Spirit
AND
Under The Protection Of The Holy Angels
The Devil Withstood!

There Have Been Good Days
Bad Days
AND 
Days Never Likely To Be Called Best
BUT
Thank God For Jesus
AND
His Saving Grace
I Will Never The Stench Of Hell Ingest!

Christ In Me
IS
My Hope For Glory
For
I, Humbled
Believe The Gospel Story!

I No Longer Play Church
Nor Practice Feel-Good Religion
For
The Oracles Of God
The Word Of Truth Does Proclaim
AND IHaving For Myself Read It
AND
Am Reading It
Will No Longer The Name Of God
Profane!

Please, I Beseech You
Make Christ Your True Portion
AND
Never Again
By Deliberation
Or Jest
His Holy Name Disdain!

I'm Sorry!
Dear Lord,
I Am Sorry!
Please Forgive Me My Sin
And Make Me Anew!

Please Remove My Stain
And Erase My Record
The Evidence Of My Shame
For
In The Name Of Jesus
I Humbly, Humbly, Plead!
AMEN.

ALMIGHTY GOD: No Convenience! + PRAYER: I Honor You, Lord!






I Go To God For Blessings!
I Go To God For Comfort 
AND
Peace Sweet
AND
I Also Go To God
Because
Without Him
I Am In This Life 
Dreadfully Incomplete!

I Seek Not To Mold God
In My Image!
I Have No Power
To Humble God
At My Feet
BUT
I Do Thank God
That I Know
That He IS God
AND
Sovereign Lord
AND
I Honor Him
For His Love
For Me
Is Blessedly Sweet!

Why Should The Living God
Be To Me
An After-Thought?
Why Should Almighty God
Be To Me
A Mere Bank?
Why Should The Saving God
Be To Me
An Escape Route
When
By Having Him
As My All And All
I Can Be Reformed
Regenerated
Wholly Loved
AND
Made Clean
To Live Forever
In The Day Coming
AND
Because Of Him
Among The Stars
- At Will -
May Shoot!

God Through Jesus Christ
Is NOT My Convenience!
God IS
My Shepherd
My Very Best Friend!
God IS My First
My Last
My Beginning
AND
My End
AND
By Loving Him
Living For Him
Exercising Jesus' Faith
- Through Work Because Of Returned Love -
I Can Hope
For Things
That I See No Evidence Of!

PRAYER:

Father,
In Heaven
I Beseech You
To Bless Me Again
With Things, Thoughts
And
Insights
That Only A Holy God
Will Freely Share!

I Bless You, Lord
 For Yesterday!
I Thank You For Today's Blessing
And
For The Grace
That Gives Me Hope
For Tomorrow
All Because
It Is To You
The Holy, Loving, God
To Whom I Say My Prayers!

Teach Me, Lord,
To Love You More!
Teach Me, Lord,
To Seek You More
And
Draw Me, Lord
To That Open Door
So That I May Enter
By Perfected Right
To Live
In Bright Mansions
On The Peaceful Shore!

I Love You, Lord!
Bless Me!
I Trust You, Lord!
Lead!
I Am Your Child!
Comfort Me!
I Honor You, Lord!
Please, Speak!

Comfort Me With Your Holy Spirit
And
Let Holy Angels
Protect Me
As I This Day
Come And Go
And
Please Forgive Me
For My Trespasses
Against You
For You Are The God Holy True!
I Ask My Petitions
In The Matchless Name Of Jesus
From Whom All Blessings Flow!
AMEN.

PLEASURES: "Secret" Sin?!?




Humans Love A Good Open Sin
To Do
To Brag Of
To Drag Someone The Coals Over
BUT
When It Comes To Secret Sin
Hey! Hey!
When Caught Out
They Would A Duppy Roll Over!

Secret Sin
Is
Man's Favorite Kind!
"You Ain't See Me
So I Didn't It Do!"
BUT
Catch A Person
With His Hands In The Stew
AND
His Sinning Is Your Fault
That Bold Sinner Will Argue!

Just As For Open Sin
Confessing Secret Sin
Is Good For The Soul
AND
Making Repentance
Before The Lord
Gets One Out Of The Hands Of The Fraud
BUT
We All Need To Remember
Sin Can't-Never A Secret Be
Because
He Who Sees All
AND
Knows All
Done Mek A Record Of It
AND NOW
You've Got A Black Mark Against You!
I Know
'Cause I Had Me A Few, Too!

"Out Of Darkness 
Into Light!"
Is A Good Word To Remember 
AND
To Hold Onto
If We Will Win
This Life's Dread Against-Sin Fight!
God Is Watching!
Angels Are Watching
AND
Recording 
Good
AND
Bad Works, Too
So Think Twice
AND
Don't Permit Lying Satan
To Mamaguy You!

The Same One Who
Encourages You To Sin
Is
The Same One Who
About Your Sin
Will Be Rabidly Talking!
Trust Your Soul
To None But
Jesus Christ The Lord
Doing All That He Has Commanded Us
AND, THEREBY
We
Will Escape
The Strangulation Cord
Of
The Already-Damned Fraud!

*********

PRAYER:

Father,
I Am Sorry
Forgive Me, I Pray!
I Was Oft' Malicious
And
I Walked Right
In My Own Way!

I Repent Of My Sin!
I Am Sorry
That I Walked
However I Chose
Even Though The Walking
Was Nothing But A Pose!
So, Help Me, 
I Beseech You
To Set Aside Self
And
In Your Heavenly Love
From This Day On
To Abide!
Help Me, My Father
 Ever
In Your Love
To Confide!
I Love You, Lord
And
In The Name
Of
The Beloved Jesus
I Stand, And I Plead!
AMEN.

Hearing The Rushing Wind! + PRAYER: Lord, Lead Us...!




There Is One Certainty In My Life
Jesus Christ IS Lord
AND
He Is Coming Again
AND
That Satan Is The Liar
AND
He Is Going To Forever Die!

There Is One Great Lie
The Whole World Is Told
Man's Quest For Peace And Security
Can Not
Will Not Fail!
One Presumption On Man's Part
That He Can Pull Satan's Imagined Tail
AND
Not Get Flailed
AND
One View Held
By The Illuminated Monied Elite
That Their Continuing Quest
For The Acquisition Of 
Absolute Wealth 
AND
Absolute Soul-Ruling Power
Is The Attainable Holy Grail
AND
They've Got The Bag On Their Display Shelf!

Money's Value Drops!
Grand Sureties Flop!
AND
Man's Absolutes 
Almighty God Laughs At!
Satan Is The Father-Liar
AND
Earth's Certain End
Is By Almighty God's Holy Fire
AND
On That Surety
We Can All Set
The Proverbial Clock!

Man May Defy God
BUT
Only For So Long!
Man May Reject God
Feeling
Of Himself
That He Is Wholly Strong!
Man May Raise Up
His Own Kingdoms
BUT
They Will Last Only So Long
BECAUSE
The Stone Of The Prophet Daniel
Does Indeed Destroy
The Fleeting Kingdoms
AND
Like A Grand And Glorious Mountain
Fills The Whole Earth
With A Kingdom For The Just
That Is Eternal
AND
Eternally Strong
Never
Ever
To Be Cast Down!

I Can Hear A Rushing Wind!
Is It The Destructive Storm's Wind?
The Winds Of War?
Or
Is It The Holy Spirit Of The Eternal God Passing?

Storm Winds Destroy
AND
The Winds Of War Decimate
BUT
The Rushing Wind
Of God's Holy Spirit
Does The Spirit Of Man
Eternally Elevate
IF
Man Is Willing
On The Holy God Of Heaven
To Continually Wait!


PRAYER:

Lord,
Help Us
To Patiently Wait Upon You
Accepting
Believing
Knowing
And
Trusting
That The Eternal Precepts
Are True!
Help Us
With Finality
To Commit Our Hopes For Eternity
Unto You Who Is The Only One Faithful
And
The Holy God Called The Truth!
Help Us To Attain To Your Glory, Lord!
Mold Us To Be In Character As Holy You!

Bless Us, Lord
With Grace And Mercy
And
Working Faith
And Peace And Sweet Rest
As We Confess
And
Repent Of Our Sins
And Strive
To Walk In Christ's Way
So That We Will Be Eternally Blessed!
Help Us To Walk Narrow
So That We May Fly Straight!
Lord,
Be Our Holy Navigator!
Lord,
By And In Christ's Faith
Please Lead Us
Through Heaven's Gates!
AMEN.
