VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Transformed!?!

Looking Up! 

Listening! 

Looking Forward! 

How Are You Standing!?! 

Where Are You Going!?! 

Who Are You Leading ... Or Misleading!?! 

Who Is Leading ... Or Misleading You!?! 

Beloved, 

Are You Being Transformed ... By The Renewing Of Your Mind!?! 

Who Is The Transformer In Your Life!?!

Is It The Spirit Of The Holy God 

Or That Of The Malevolent Spirit, Satan!?! 

What Are You Receiving!?! 

What Are You Conceiving!?! 

Who Are You Deceiving!?! 

Brethren, 

The Olde Expression Says That Talk Is Cheap 

But That It Takes Money To Buy Whiskey! 

It Also Says That We Do Not Pay Taxes On Our Words: 

Perhaps We Should Start! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Committed Christians Do Not Drink Whiskey 

Or Any Other Alcoholic Beverages 

And 

We Are To Guard Our Hearts Because Of The Fact That 

The Issues Of Life Causes Things To Come Out Of Us 

Which Defile Us! 

For What Are You Looking Up!?! 

To What Are You Intentionally Listening!?! 

To What, For Whom, And Why Are You Looking Forward!?! 

Will You, Will I, Will Anyone, Be Blessed And Benefitted!?! 

Will Faith, Hope, And Truth Matter!?! 

Will We Be Saved When Jesus Christ Comes!?! 

I Am Asking For A Friend

And

Enquiring Minds Desire To Know! 

Let Us Dig Deep For Real Answers! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Good Is Good As Long As It Stays Good!

It's Absolutely Mind-Bogglingly Amazing! 

You, Me, We Have A Reputation For Let's Say

Being Punctual To Work

On Time To Complete Assignments

And 

Ever On Task Aka No Tomfoolery Indulged! 

With This Solidly Intact Reputation

You, Me, We Decide That We Are Going To Do Some "Things" 

And 

Get Away With Them 

Because

Well, The Reputation Speaks For Itself 

And 

Wrong-Doing Ain't Your Way

Until You Get Caught And Fuzzed Out Like A Cheap Carpet! 

Now Picture, If You Will

The Committed To Christ, Psalm-Singing, Tithe-Returning

Righteous Person 

Whose Once Stellar Reputation Gives Way To A Stink-Ball Of 

Almighty God Knows Me 

Because 

I'm His Person No Matter What I Do Self-Righteousness 

Which, Most Definitely, Is Not The Righteousness Of Our Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Does Not Stutter

Does Not Take Bribes

And 

Does Not Play Favorites! 

Good Is Good As Long As It Stays Good! 

Good Turned Bad 

And 

Relying On Yesterday's Good To Earn Tomorrow's Paycheck 

Is Not Going To Fly You To Glory! 

Remember The Old Adage ...

"Good, Better, Best

Never Let It Rest

Till The Good Is Better

And The Better Best!" 

Please Stay On The Path That Is Lit By The Living, Holy, Word Of Truth 

And 

Do Not Permit The Adversary Of Souls To Convince You That 

Receiving His Fool's Gold "Participation Trophy" 

Is 

As Good As Receiving The Crown Of Life From The Lord Of Life

The King Of Earth And Glory! 

Stay On The Son's Side Of Life 

And 

Be Enduringly Good To The End ... By Grace Through Unfailing Faith! 

Peace! 

HOW DO YOU STAND: Standing On OR Standing Up On ... The Promises Of Almighty God!?!

What Is The Point Of Being Given A Promise 

And 

Not Being Bold Enough To Remind The Person Of Their Exact Words 

At The Time When The Receipt Of The Benefits Of Said Promise 

Will Immensely Profit You!?! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have Been Given An Open Invitation 

To Appear Boldly At The Throne Of Grace 

To Obtain Mercy 

And

Grace To Help Us In Our Time Of Need! 

Should We Not Appear Before The Lord's Magnificent Throne 

And 

Awe-Inspiring Glory 

With The Lord's "Yea!" And "Amen!" Promise For The Moment 

Securely Held And Ready To Be Offered Up To The Promise-Keeping God 

Whom We Say And Believe Is Our Everlasting Portion!?! 

Beloved, 

The Promises Of God Given To Us For Our Blessing 

Are Only Of Benefit To Us As We Believe That 

The Giver Is Faithful And True! 

The Promises Given Will Profit Us 

When We Present Them For Settlement 

Like A Check Or A Bearer Bond! 

Be Warned, Though

Don't Ask For A Promise To Be Kept By The Lord Jesus 

When You Are Deliberately Living Contrary To The Will Of Almighty God! 

The Lord Jesus Will Never Fatten You For Satan To Feast Upon Because 

Our God, Holy

Is 

Neither Deceitful ... Nor A Liar! 

Choose To Believe The Lord's Word 

And 

Dare To Present It To Him! 

Bring Your Dirt, Your Trouble

Your Trial

And 

Your Test Or Torment! 

Let Your Request Be Known ... By Faith! 

Believe You Will Receive Your Request 

According To The Father's Will And Way 

And

Pray Without Ceasing! 

The Character Of Christ Is Our Guarantee: 

"Cash In" Your Promise Today! 

Peace!

Servers Will Get Served: Sow And Show Mercy!

Life Is Amazing! 

Can You Imagine Being A Person 

Who Acts Like Judge, Jury

And 

Executioner Against Anyone That 

You Feel Has Not Given You The Requisite Hat Off

Ring Kiss

And 

Great-Toe Lick You Know That You Deserve 

Because 

You Are King This, Queen That

Doctor See Me, Or Lawyer Give Me!?! 

Beloved, 

Behold King Saul

King Ahab And His Wife, Wicked Queen Jezebel

And 

Jezebel's Apple Don't Fall Far From The Tree Daughter

Queen Athaliah 

And

Consider The Lives That They  Embittered 

And 

Ultimately Ruined By Deceit And Deviltry 

Because 

They Didn't Keep Mercy At Home In Their Hearts!  

When You Set Yourself Up To Be "God Of All" 

When You're Nothing But A Non-Paying Tenant 

On The Lord's Beautiful Though Despoiled Blue Ball Aka Earth

You Never Have Reason To Believe That 

You, Yourself, Will Be Eventually Judged 

And 

Will Undoubtedly Cry Out For ... Mercy! 

Dear Ones, 

We Will All Do Well To Remember The Adage: 

"Do What You Want Done To You!" 

The Only Being Having No Cause To Receive Mercy 

Is 

He Who Is The Merciful God 

And

The Judge Of All Flesh

And Therefore

We Should Stop Thinking That We Are The Cat's Meow 

And 

Realize That Givers Will Eventually Be Receivers 

Aka Servers Will Get Served! 

Please Be Very Careful 

About What You Dare To Do To Others! 

Our Lord Jesus Sees, Hears

And 

Knows All Things! 

Judgment Day Is Up Ahead: 

Sow And Show Mercy ... Now! 

Peace!  

A Boatload Of Hogwash!

In The Old Days

Much Talk Was Heard About The Sweet-Skin Bucky

Who Just Also Happened To Be A Silver-Tongued Snake 

And 

A Lily-Livered Coward! 

How Is That For A Warning By Description Of 

A Gentleman-Caller To Roundly Refuse!?! 

Beloved, 

In Our Journey To Joy

To Hill Zion 

Where Pleasures Forevermore Do Not Cloy 

As In Make You Sick To Your Very Stomach

You Will Be Accosted By That Certain Glib Someone 

Whom You Have Never Met 

But Who, With Dulcet Tones, Will Tell You 

All There Is To Know About What You Surely Need

Where You Are Headed 

But Where You Should Boldly Go Instead

Whom It Is That You Have Unforgivably Offended

And 

Why You Should Turn Away From The Light 

That Allegedly Leads To Everlasting Life 

- Which You Can Never Attain - 

And, Instead 

"Follow De Leader, Leader, Leader

Follow De Leader!" 

And 

Just Let "It" All Hang Out 

Because 

Tomorrow Ye Die! 

Dear Ones, 

That Is A Boatload Of Hogwash 

Coming Out Of The Fire-Hose Powered By Satan The Damned 

Who Is Known To Appear As An Angel Of Light! 

Satan Tried To "Sell This Tee-Shirt" To Our Blessed Jesus 

And 

Was Roundly Rebuffed With The Perfect For All Problems 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Please Let Us Choose To Follow The Way, Ways

And 

Will Of Our Blessed Jesus 

And

Allow Satan ... That Silver-Tongued Snake

To Head To Hell By Himself! 

The Devil's Deceits Destroy! 

Jesus Christ Saves: 

Walk In His Holy Light! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Oh, The Pain!

Sin Is A Sexy Siren

Singing A Scintillating Song

Sure To Send The Sinful Skyward

Satisfied With Skirting Around Salvation

Sure To Have Scheming Satan

Salivating That 

Another Soul Would Be His Before Long! 

Desire Is Deceiving

Drawing One Into The Dragon's Dark Domain

Where Deceit, Discord, And Destruction

Are The Deceived One's Reward

His Long-Desired Gain! 

Greed Is A Grip Guaranteed 

To Grind The Glutton

Into Gruel

So That The Gainsayer Satan

Can Joyfully Flush Him Away! 

Beware! Beware! 

Regret Is That Vision Most Cruel! 

"I Feel Your Pain!" 

"No, You Don't! 

"I've Been There!"

"Oh, Please! Get Real! 

Unless We Share The Same Body

You Have No Idea What I've Been Going Through 

So Don't You Dare Tell Me That My Pain Is Nothing

To Deal With It

And With It Get Through!" 

Beloved,

Could You Imagine Telling The Lord That 

His Pain For You Was Nothing 

Compared To What You're Feeling For Yourself!?! 

Can You Imagine Taking Morphine For Your Personally-Felt Pain 

While Minimizing What Our Savior Felt Cold Turkey 

When For Each One Of Us Personally

He Died The First 

And

The Second Death 

To Give Each One Of Us Personally And Individually

The Blessed Gift Of His Everlasting Life!?! 

Pain ... Like Life And Death

Has A Subject And An Object! 

Pain Points To A Problem In You

Which Is A Problem For You

Which Must Be Fixed For You 

Or

In Your Behalf! 

Pain Is A Symptom Of Sin 

Which Corrupted, Corrupts, Mortal Life! 

A Life Of And In Sin Results In Death! 

Jesus Christ Conquered Death To Give Us Life! 

A Life Lived In And For Jesus Christ

Shall See Everlasting Life 

Without Pain, Sin, And Death

So Please Take Our Blessed Jesus All Day, Every Day

And 

Sin Will Not Have Power Over You 

And

Neither Will The Second Death!

Physical Pain Is A Part Of Life! 

How Are You Feeling Today!?! 

Have You Been To Jesus!?! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Please Do Not Be Like Own-Way Children!

Evadney, Do You Know That You Are Being Held!?!

I Sure Do! 

I Am Sheltered By ... And Held 

In The  Comforting Arms Of The Almighty God!

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! 

Not That Held!

Come On Now! 

What Other Held Could There Possibly Be!?!

You Asked So Let Me Answer You!

You're A Sinner And You're Held By H.E.L.D.!

Held By Held!?!

Big WhooHoo!

Please Don't Say That! 

I'm Very Serious!

Okay, Okay! 

Tell Me Who Or What Is This "Held" That's Holding Me!?!

H.E.L.D. Has A Hold On You!

Hate, Envy, Lust, And Deceit 

Have Got You In Their Gross Grip 

And They Ain't Gonna Let You Go Free

Unless You Let Our King Jesus Break Their Grip!

It's Either That Or Suffer The Full And Final Effects Of Man's Fall! 

Restrictions, Requirements, Reproofs: 

Man Hates Rules! 

Who Is Better, Wiser, And Stronger Than 

The Lord Jesus Christ!?! 

Like Own-Way Children

We Often Act As Though We Are Better At Organizing Our Lives

Wiser To Make Decisions To Guide Our Lives

And 

Stronger Than The Enemy Desiring To Destroy Us 

And 

All That We Hold Dear 

Including Our Saving Faith In The Lord Jesus Christ! 

Beloved, 

There Is None Better, Wiser, Or Stronger Than 

The Lord God Almighty Who Made And Maintains

Saves And Sustains

Provides For And Protects Us All! 

Restrictions Protect! 

Reproofs Correct! 

Requirements Direct! 

And 

The God Of Grace And Glory 

Who Directs, Corrects, And Protects Us 

Is 

Able, Available, And Awaiting Our Answer 

To His Call To Everlasting Life! 

Our God The Almighty ... Strong To Save

Is 

Awake

Aware

Ahead Of The Curve

And 

All-Around Awesome! 

Brethren, Beloved

How About Deciding To Let Our Dear Savior 

Surprise And Amaze Us Today 

Since There Is Nothing That We May Think, Say, Or Do 

Which Will Surprise Or Amaze Him!?! 

Jesus Christ Desires To Save Me And You

So Dare To Grab Grace 

And 

Inevitably Hold Glory! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Sorry-Not Sorry Ain't Christian!

We Ask The Lord For Pardon 

By Saying That We Are Sorry 

But

There Will Be No Pardon For Us 

If 

Our Sorry ... Our Penitence

Contains No Corresponding Humility! 

Beloved, 

Why Would You Say: 

"I Am Sorry!" 

When In Truth And Fact You Are Not!?! 

You Insult The One To Whom You Apologize 

And

Show That Your Credibility 

Is 

Definitely Not In Stock! 

Why Dimish Yourself In This Way Vulgar 

By Using Your Voice In The Manner Crude 

Including Going So Far As To Repent To Almighty God

Using The Faith And Name Of Christ Jesus

When You Know That You're Nothing But A Snot-Nose Fraud!?! 

I Am Genuinely Sorry To Use Such Strong Language 

But

This Behavior Cannot Go Unremarked 

Because

You Place Yourself In The Unenviable Position Of 

Having The Lord Cause You To Be Thrown Into The Outer Darkness! 

Jesus Christ Was Always Humble

Not Given To The Airs And Graces Of Putrid Pride

And

There Is No Way I Tell You Plain And Straight That 

Within The Pearly Gates You Will Abide 

With That Unregenerate Attitude Cozied Up On Your Insides! 

If You're Sorry, Be Sorry

But 

If You're Not, You're Not

So Don't Add Insult To Injury By Adding Perjury 

Because

In So Doing

By The Lord God Almighty

You Shall Surely Be Denied! 

Be Wise! 

Sorry-Not Sorry 

Is Not 

A Part Of The Christian's Bonafides! 

Let An Actively Working Conscience 

Be Your Choice Constant Companion 

And 

On-Board, On-Duty, Faithfully-Enduring Guide! 

Against Satan

And 

In Jesus' Christ Holy Name

Turn Deceit And Destruction's Rip Tide! 

Peace! 

PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY: The Buck Stops Here!?!

Many Of Us Are In For A Rude Awakening 

When We Appear Before The Judgment Seat Of Jesus Christ 

Because 

Our Usual Pass The Buck, Blame Someone Else

Will Have Exhausted Its Usefulness 

And 

We Will Be On The Hook For The Unpaid, Long-Overdue Bill Of 

Take Personal Responsibility! 

It Is Safe To Say That 

Lucifer Blamed The Father For His Cockups 

Because 

The Father Refused To Let Him Have 

What The Father Gave To His Son! 

End Result: 

Condemnation And Damnation! 

Adam Blamed Almighty God For Giving Him A Defective Wife 

And 

For His Own Willful Disobedience! 

Eve Blamed The Serpent For Deceiving Her Into Wanting More 

When She Already Had Everything That She Needed! 

End Result: 

Cursed, Cast Out

Pain, Hard Labor

Suffering

And 

Death 

Plus

Jesus Christ Having To Die To Save The Race! 

Beloved, 

We Are No Longer Children! 

We Have Knowledge Of The Experiences Of Others 

Which Should Counsel Us To Be Wise: 

Satan Can't Make Us Do Anything! 

As Humans, We All Do What Our Flesh Desires! 

As Committed Christians

We Should All Be Doing What The Lord Wills! 

Mistakes Happen

So Please Choose To Recognize The Error

Repent Of The Sin

Accept Loving Correction

And 

Align Your Desires With The Father's Will! 

Taking Responsibility For Your Own Actions

Minus The Arrogant Attitude

Plus The Humble Spirit 

Equals A Definite Growth In Grace On The Road To Glory! 

"I Was Wrong, And I Beg Your Pardon!" 

Yields Fruit Most Pleasant To Enjoy! 

Dare And Choose To Do Right 

And 

To Glory Rise To Live With Eternal Light 

In The Land Of No Night! 

Peace!

DON'T GIVE IN TO EVIL: Follow After Sweet Peace!

Do Not Permit The Tongue That You Use To Praise Almighty God 

To Speak Evil! 

Do Not Taint The Lips That You Use To Raise Songs Of Worship 

And 

Offer Prayers For Heavenly Favor 

To Speak Deceitfully! 

Avoid The Appearance Of Evil 

And

Don't Give In To Evil! 

Follow After Sweet Peace! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ Is The Prince Of Peace 

And

He Is Also Our Perfect 

And 

Only Peace! 

We Are Called To Be Like Him Who Created Us 

In The Image Of Almighty God! 

Jesus Christ Was Never Wicked Or Deceitful: 

If He Had Been

Our Salvation Is As Dust In The Wind ... Blown! 

Taking The High Road

Going Against The Common Behaviors 

And 

Ungodly Practices Of The Known Always-Wrong Majority 

Sold-Out By Self To Known Sin Means That 

Committed Christians Are A People Out Of Tune

Out Of Time

Square-Pegs In Round Holes

And

A Bold Threat To Business As Usual! 

Dare To Be Square!

Build Big On Jesus Christ 

Upon Whom You Have Set Your Affections 

And 

Know That Your Future Is Sure 

And 

Your Life Is Secure! 

Be Faithful In Your Free Freedom 

Which Cost Heaven Its Priceless Treasure 

And 

You Shall Enter The Open Door To Everlasting Life That 

No Created Being May Close! 

Do Good: 

It Is Right! 

Your Peace In Christ Is Precious! 

Zealously Guard It!

THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST: No Immortal Sinners!

When The Almighty God Made The Judgment 

To Drive Man Out Of The Garden Of Eden

It Was Because Adam And Eve Had Gone Against Counsel 

And 

Common Sense 

And

Had Sinfully Eaten Of The Fruit Of The Tree Of 

The Knowledge Of Good And Evil 

Which Gave Them What They Should Never Have Known 

... And ... 

To Stop Them 

From Thereafter Eating From The Tree Of Life 

And

Becoming Immortal Sinners! 

The Lord Jesus ... By Whom We Live And Breathe

And 

Have Our Very Being

Made His Judicial Pronouncement 

And

The Father Of Lies ... Satan The Damned

Made His Deceptive Announcement That 

Man Has An Immortal Soul 

Aka The Flesh Dies 

But 

"The Soul" Lives Forever! 

Beloved, 

Beware Of The Great Deception! 

Our Creator God ... Jesus Christ The Lord

The King

Our Only Savior 

And 

Soon-Returning Redeemer

Breathed Into Adam And Eve's Nostrils

- Their Nose Holes - 

The Breath Of Life From The Living God 

And

They Each Became Living Souls! 

Remove The Breath Of Life From The Eternal God

And 

Man ... Sinner, And Saint ... Dies

      Dead

                Rotten And Forgotten! 

The Gospel Truth ... 

There Is No Little Being That 

Escapes Through Man's Nostrils 

And 

Instantly Heads To Either Heaven Or Hell 

And 

AvoidsJesus Christ's Future Judgment! 

Let No One Fool You ... 

The Lord Jesus Christ 

Is 

Bringing His Rewards With Him 

So Let's Do Ourselves A Solid 

And 

Let Hollywood's Professional Liars

And 

The Lying-For-Profit Churchmen 

Cook In Their Own Stew Of Damnable Deceit! 

Brethren, Beloved, 

According To Your Work Done In Your Flesh

So Shall Be Your Reward Aka Your Pay-Check! 

With That Made Plain Even For The Blind Man

Please Believe The Living Word Of The Holy God

The Giver And Sustainer Of Your Life!

 

Every Human Being Reaps Aka Collects 

The Valid Proof Of His Labor Aka His Efforts! 

The Living God Is Not Mocked

By Either The Rich Or The Poor

The Free Or The Slave

The Prime Minister, President

Prince, Pope, Pastor, Priest, Politician

Or

The Purveyor Of Flesh!

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: There's No Salvation In Straw!

It Is said That 

A Drowning Man Will Catch At A Straw 

To Save Himself!

Straw Is A By-Product 

And 

A Waste-Product Whose End, Ultimately

Is 

The Dung-Heap Or The Burn-Barrel: 

There's No Salvation In Grasping At Straw! 

Those Of Us Who Don't Personally Know The Lord Jesus 

Are Drowning In Sin! 

We Who Know The Lord Christ Are Grasping For 

And

Are Being Firmly Held By The Holy Hand Of 

Our Own Creator 

And

The Creator Of The Plants From Which The Straw Comes! 

Be Wise For Yourself ... 

It Is Always Safer, More Beneficial ... More Profitable 

To Go To The Boss Than To The Servant! 

Our Boss ... The Master

The Lord Our God, The King, The Judge

- With Open Arms - 

Invites Us To Seek After Him Diligently 

While He May Be Found! 

Beloved, 

We Have A ... The ... Window Of Opportunity 

Now ... Today ... To Get In On The Ground Floor Of 

The Universe's Greatest Health, Wealth And Blessing Transfer

With No Lies Or Deceit Involved 

And

No Stealth Or Stealing Required! 

Let Us Dare ... Today

To Reject The Cheap, Useless, Straws That 

Suggest Possible Safety ... And Security

But

Grossly Fall Short And Grotesquely Fail

And Instead 

Humbly Choose To Call Upon 

And 

Repair To Our Lord Jesus 

Who, Alone, Truly Saves, Heals 

And 

Seals Us! 

Jesus Christ

Is

Our All

For All Things

And

In All Ways!

Pride Is A Holey Roof-Top!

The Stories Of 

Lucifer Being Cast Out Of Heaven 

And

Adam And Eve Being Cast Out Of Eden 

Are Cautionary Tales: Take Heed! 

Never Blame Others 

For The Messes That You Heaven-Daringly Create 

And

Never Be Too Proud To Humbly Say That You're Sorry! 

Surprise: No Surprise ...

Almighty God 

Is Not 

Responsible For Our Tawdry Thoughts And Wayward Ways!

 

Lucifer Had Power, Position, And Prestige 

But

He Desired Worship 

And

Sowed Discord By Innuendo, Deceit And Outright Lies! 

Lucifer Would Have Been Forgiven 

If

He Had Chosen Humility And Apology:

He Boldly Chose War And ... Homelessness! 

Adam And Eve Were Warned Of The Adversary! 

Eve Was Beguiled 

But

Adam Indulged Willful Disobedience! 

Adam Blamed God And Eve 

And

Eve Blamed The Serpent For Their Misfortunes! 

They Never Acknowledged Their Failures 

And

Never Said "Sorry!"

And

They Were Cast Out Of Paradise! 

Beloved, 

Willfulness, Disobedience, Pride And Arrogance 

Is 

A Box Made Of Two Knife-Edged Triangles 

Because

Self Is The Trap In The Middle! 

The Triangles Poke Hard 

And 

Cut Clean

And

The Box Is Self-Sealing!

Brethren, Beloved, 

Be Wise: 

Don't Dig Your Own Grave!

 

Be Humble: 

Pride Is A Holey Roof-Top!

 

Humbly Approach The Throne Of Grace: 

Better Is A Rough Rag With The Lord Christ 

Than A Rich Robe With Satan! 

Get Your Heart Right With God! 

Peace

With Almighty God

Gracefully Grows!
