When We Realize That Our Desire
Is
To Be With Our Lord Jesus Christ
We Should, Effectively, Have The Overwhelming Need
To Change Everything About Our Then Present Lives!
Beloved,
When The Leaders Of The Temple
Had Conflict With The Disciples
They Observed The Change In Them
And
Made Note That They Had Been With Jesus ... The Messiah!
Judas And The Rich Young Ruler
Are Two Persons Who Had Been Near To The Lord
But
Were Left Unmoved And Unchanged
Because
They Wanted Things Changed To Please Them
Including The Lord Jesus!
Dear Ones,
The Popular "Fake It Till You Make It!"
Will Never Work In The Life Of One
Who Is With Jesus ... All The Way!
We Will Make Mistakes
But
We Have An Advocate With Our Father To Intercede For Us
Because
He Is For Us!
Pretending Christians Are Avowed Sinners
As There Can Be No Fakery In The Family Called Faithful!
Pretense, Fakery, Deceit, And Deviltry
Are All In The Realm Of Satan!
Truth, Right, Holiness, And Helpfulness
Are In The Realm Of The Holy One!
We Don't Change Dirty Clothing, Sin
By Putting Clean Clothing, Salvation, Over The Dirty!
We Change By Getting Rid Of The Dirty Clothing
Washing Ourselves In The Word Of Truth
And
Donning The Garment Of Righteousness
Which The Lord Himself Provides!
Let Us Dare And Truly Identify With Christ Today
In Thought, Word, And Deed:
Physical Change Is Going To Come ... Soon!
Peace!
