THE PLAN: Truth Stands!

Heyyyy, Bonitz!
Long Time No See!
How Are You Doing!?!

I'm Good, Carey!?!
What About You!?!

I'm Doing Well
And I'm Praising God, And Grateful!
I Haven't Seen You At Church Lately!
Are Things Okay!?!

Things Are Going Well!
I Have A New Church Family
And I'm Having Loads Of Fun!

New Church Family!?!
What Do You Mean!?!

You Haven't Heard!?!

Heard!?!
Heard What!?!

We All Go Down To CCM!

CCM!?!
Never Heard Of It!

You Must Be Kidding!?!
Girl, It's The Fastest Growing Ministry
In These Parts
With Standing Room Only For All The Services!

Really!?!
Please Tell Me More
And Start With That Name!
CCM Sounds Kinda Catchy!

CCM Stands For Cafeteria Church Ministries And ...!

... That Pastor Must Have Been Seriously Ragged
Growing Up With A Name Like That!

Oh, No!
You're Mistaken!
The Pastor's Name Is Idetentee Jusso!
Cafeteria Is Cafeteria As In Food Service
Make Your Selections
Pay Your Bill
Take A Seat!
Enjoy Your Meal!

Huh!?!

Seriously!
We Decide What We Want To Hear
When We Want To Hear It
How We Want To Hear It
And
To Our Individual Tastes And Temperaments
We're Suitably Edified:

No Hurt Feelings!
No Guilt Trips!
No Fear Of Flames!
Total Inclusivity!
Rainbow Warriors!
Personal Truth!
Authentic Living!
No Sinners!
All Saints!
No Sin!
All Salvation!
Common Good!
It's Amazing, And I Love It!

You Would!

Pardon Me!?!

Oh, My! That Doesn't Sound Good!
Uh, Which Bible Are You Using!?!

We Don't Use A Bible Bible!
We Have A Good Book Of Great Truths
With Daily Affirmations
And Selected Messages From
All The World's Great Religions!
After All, All God's Are Equal!

Wow!
That Sounds Like ...!
I Wonder What The Spirit Is Like In Your Service!

Girl, It's Off The Chain!
Everybody Is Happy, Excited, Laughing
Rocking, Running
And So, So, Very Loving!
Miracles Abound!

Signs And Wonders!

You Hit The Nail On The Head!
Signs And Wonders Always Appear
And Pastor 'Tee Always Gets A Word 
And A Wonder From On High
Whenever He Sits
In The Great White Throne Chair!

Achooo! ACHOOO!

Bless You!

I Feel A Cold Coming On!
Are You Still Praying!?!

Oh, No!
We Are One With Our Lord
So There Is No Need To State The Obvious!

So Oblivious!

You Mean Obvious!

No, I Said What I Meant!
You Are So Very Oblivious To The Truth!
You've Broken The Trust
And
Your Carnal Lust Is Propelling You!

You Once Claimed Christ As Savior
Lord And Master
And, Now
Instead Of Progressing
You're Making Retrograde Steps!

You're Letting A Charlatan
Tickle Your Fancy
Tickle Your Ears
And
You're Indulging Raging Lusts
Instead Of For Heaven
Getting Yourself Prepared!

Did Not The Lord Christ Warn Us
To Not Let Anyone Deceive Our Souls!?!
Did Not The Savior Warn Us
That Satan Does Appear
As An Angel Of Light
Wearing Bright And White Clothes!?!

Don't You Know That We Are Not To Be Comfortable
Living In Sin And Loving Self And Sin!?!

Don't You Remember That
In Order To Withstand A Spiritual Attack
That To The Savior
We Must Stay Attached!?!

Answer A Question For Me:
What Is Your Pastor Ideetentee's Definition Of Sin!?!

What, Exactly, Do You Mean By Sin!?!

Lord, Preserve Me!
Okay, Okay!
What Is YOUR Definition Of Sin!?!

My Idea Of Sin Is Unique To Me!
What Is Sin To You Is Not Sin To Me!
My Experience In My Personal Life
Determines How My Traumatized Child
Manifests Now In My Adult Life
And Is, Therefore, Subjective
Hence, For Me
There Is Nothing Called Sin To Infect
To Restrict 
The Actions Of My Life!
Only Self Can Define What Is Sin!

Ahhhm, Where Is Jesus Christ In All Of This!?!
What About HIS Definition Of Sin!?!

Oh, That Definition Was Fine Back Then
But We Are Evolved
And Knowledge Has Increased!
We Do Whatever Makes Us Happy!
No Harm: No Foul!

We Have Run To And Fro Around The World
And A Consensus By The Great Minds Has Been Reached:


  • Take Care Of Mother Earth
  • Have Respect To Father Time
  • Be Kind To Our Animal Brothers And Sisters
  • Do Lots Of Good Works, And
  •  Laud Self Above Everything


We Are No More Slaves!
We Are Sure To Do What Makes Us Happy!

Jesus, Savior, Pilot Me!!
Lord, Please Give Me Strength!
You Are Being Deceived And You Know It!

There Is No Man Comfortable In Sin
That Is At Peace With The Holy God!
You Are Playing With Fire
For You Are Shacking Up With King Fraud!

I Know That You Are A Parent!
Would You Give Your Child Whatever It Wants
Encouraging It To Do Whatever It Pleases
Including Living Wild
Ignoring The Obvious Rules Of The Road
Oblivious To Certain Peril
Just Because Desire Is Always To Be Satisfied!?!

Of Course Not!
That Would Be Very Foolish Indeed!

Dear God And Father Of Mankind,
Forgive Our Foolish Ways!

Please Tell Me, Then
In The Name Of All That's Holy
How You Can Think To Do An End-Run
Around The Living God
Your Father Which Is In Heaven
And
Get Away With It!?!

The Lord Has Given Us Rules For The Road
The Right Way To Live
How To Be
What We Can And Can't Do
How To Come
How To Go
What To See
What To Know
Because
We Will Be Reaping That Which We Sow!

Remember The Word:






No Man Can Stay The Hand Of God 
Who Is The Righteous Judge 
And 
Faithful Paymaster Of Us All! 

Has The Good Life
In This Happy Place That You Are Inhabiting
Caused You To Forget That
There Is No Changing Of Status
No Second Probation
And 
No Do-Overs After Death
Nor After Christ Comes!?! 

Uh, Ah, Umm ...! 

What's Wrong!?!
Have You Lost Your Mind And Your Tongue Also!?! 

I, Uh, Ahmmm ...! 

What's The Matter With You!?!
Come On! Speak Up!

I, I, Can't! 
I'm Soooo Unhappy! 
Please Help Me! 

But You Just Said How Happy You
And You Were Gushing About
All The Fun You're Having
With Your New Church Family!?! 

I Know ... I Lied ...! 

Come And Let's Sit On The Veranda
And You Can Tell Me The Truth! 

Oh, Dear! 
You're Not Going To Like It! 

If You Say So
But Tell Me Anyhow! 

45 Minutes Hours Later ... 

Bonitz, Please Listen To Me Carefully:

A Fire Too-Hot
Too Fast
Too Furious
Always Has An Accelerant!

A Christian Too Righteous
Too Religious
Knowing It All In One Day
And
Being Too Blessed To Be Stressed
Always Having The Sure
And 
Perfect Words For Self And Other's Answered Prayer
Also Has An Accelerant
And
Is Not Guaranteed To Go The Distance
Because Of A Thing Called Emotionalism!

Since Salvation Is A Process
- The Work Of A Lifetime - 
Emotionalism Is Not Going To Survive
The Upward Climb
Where Slow And Steady
Grace And Mercy
Faith And Work
Obedience
Defiance Of The Devil
And
His Pretty Works
And
The Slow And Steady Day By Day Plodding
Is 
An Endurance Walk 
And
Not A Buggy Race
For The Exertion Averse
Is 
The Only Thing That Works!

There Is Only One God Holy! 
The Other "Gods" Of The Earth Are False
And 
Can Never - Will Never -
Be Equal To The Eternal God! 

What Is Ours To Know Us
Is
Plainly Revealed In The Living Word ... Preserved
By The High And Holy Hand Of The Eternal God
And
Anyone Who Adds To The Word
Or Takes Away From The Word Of Almighty God
Is
By Almighty God Cursed! 
Revelation 22 Makes That Clear
And
The Wisest Man In Proverbs 30:6 Makes That Abundantly Plain! 

Miracles And Signs And Wonders
Are Not To Be Taken As Proof Of
Almighty God's Favor Or Approval! 
Satan Has The Power To Work Miracles
To Agitate Nature 
The Weather
- The Book Of Job Proves That -
And
Within The Boundaries Decided By The Living God
He Can Destroy A Person's Health
Wellbeing
And
Prosperity! 

Understand And Accept This ...

The Lord God Cannot
Will Not 
Stretch The Truth Or Tell A Lie
To Get You To Believe In Him
Or To Trust Him! 
In The Economy Of God
It Is All About Faith! 

You've Been ... Unwisely
Trusting In Your Lying Eyesight
And
Overwrought Emotions
And
You Have Permitted A Real Charlatan
A Wise-Acre Hustler
A True Con-Artist
To Relieve You Of A Goodly Portion Of 
Your Parents' Hard-Earned Money!

The Lord Had No Mansion
No Big Ride
No Servants
No Bank Account
And
He Did Not Speak With A Forked Tongue
Or Encourage His Followers
To Finance His Speculative Interests
Since He Had None! 

The People Of God
Need To Be Wise As Serpents
And
Harmless As Doves! 
There Are No Fools In The Kingdom Of God! 

Do You Realize
Do You Know That There Is
Joy And Peace In Believing The Living Word
The Choice Promises Of God!?!

Do You Recognize
Do You Accept That
When You Stand Aka Believe
And
Live In The Security
The Protection Of The Word Of God
That There Is No Created Being That
Can Cause You To Fret
To Be Anxious
To Be Afraid
To Doubt
To Disbelieve
That All Things
- Good, Bad, Ugly, Painful, Hurtful, Wicked -
Work Together For The Good Of
Those Of Us Who Are The Called
According To His Purpose!?!

The Lord Is Calling You!
Are You Answering!?!

I Am Trying ...!

When We Recognize That
This Life Isn't About Our Selfish Desires
That We Are Here In Boot Camp
Preparing For A Can't-Fail Mission
Under The Leadership Of A Can't-Lose Commander
Against A Can't-Win Adversary
For The Assured Glorious Prize
Aka The Purchased Redemption
We Walk Like Winners
We Talk Like Winner
We Live Like Winners
We Live Like Overcomers
We Live Like Saints ... Blessed
Bold
Bought
Believing
Bound ... For The Promised Land!

Jesus Christ Promised
Jesus Christ Bled And Died
Jesus Christ Got Up And Rose Up
Jesus Christ Is Preparing A Place
Jesus Christ Is Interceding
And
Jesus Christ Is Coming Back ... For Us
Who Believe His Word
Trust His Character
Live In His Light
Keep All His Commandments
Bless Him By Blessing Others
Telling The Good News
And
Are Washing Our Clothing
- Our Character -
In His Blood
Shed For Every Man!

Almighty God Is Ever Good ...

It Took A Miracle
And
It Requires Our Faith ... 
Believe Him 
... And Live!

Trust Him At His Word ... And Obey
Because
He Helps ... And Heals!
He Saves ... And Seals!
He Leads ... And Reveals!
He Opens ... And Closes!
He Knocks
And
He Ably Protects All His Flocks
In All The Various Congregations
And
He Is Assembling Them ... Us
His Children
His Brethren
Into The One ... The Only
Safe And Secure Fold!

Hurray For Woolly Sheep ...

A Lil' Faith Goes A Long Way
And
That Lil' Faith ... Exercised
Grows Into The Unwavering Faith
That Shall See Us Safely Esconced
In The Eternal Home!

There's Always A Hairy Goat ...

A Lil' Doubt 
Is 
Like Active Yeast:

It Changes The Structure Of Faith
And
Belief!
It Erodes Confidence In The Glorious King
And
Robs One Of The Peace Of God
The Likes Of Which
There Is No Counterfeiting
No Faking!

Sweet Girl, You've Got Some Hard Questions To Honestly Answer! 
Where Do You Stand!?!
Upon Whom Will You Henceforth Rely!?!
Are You Among The Kingdom Bound
Or
Are You Among The Wafflers
The Fence-Jockeys
The Doubters Damned
Those Flattered, Filled, And Fatted
On The Lust Of The Flesh
The Lust Of The Eye
The Pride Of Life
Those Who ... In The Day Of Vengeance
To The Rocks And Hills Shall
Uselessly Cry!?!

Truth Stands ...

Blessedly ... For Us All
U-Turns Are Permitted
Encouraged
In The Lives Of Those Who Finally See The Light!

Confession And Repentance Are Blessed Gifts
In The Lives Of Those Who Desire Spiritual Success! 

Don't Be Among 
The Helpless
The Hopeless,  The Hapless!
Jesus Christ Is Righteous
Reigning, Ruling, Returning
And
Only Those Standing 
Living And Abiding In His Love
Shall On The Wings Of The Wind
To Zion Be Riding!

It's Time With The Lord Christ To Be Siding!

I Can Now Honestly Say That I Agree!

AMEN!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: PRAYER - Zealous For God's Word!








Father,
I Come To You
As A Child
Eager
And Willing To Learn Your Ways
Trusting Of Your Word
And
With Your Help And Guidance
Ready To Reason With You
To Come To The Conclusion Of
The Whole Matter!

Father, You Said That
Your Word Is Sealed and Settled In Heaven!
You Said You Are The Same Yesterday,  Today and Forever!
You Said You Change Not!
You Said You Are Jealous For
What Belongs To You
And
For Your Holy Name!

You Said That You Sanctify People Through Your Truth
And
You Said That Your Word Is Truth!

You Said That You Breathed Into Man's Nostrils
The Breath Of Life
And,  Thereby
Man Became A Living Soul!

You Said It Is Appointed Once For Man To Die!
You Said In The Instant A Man Dies
His Thoughts Perish
And
He Goes To His Long Home
And
You Said That The Dead Know Nothing!

Lord,
I Believe What You Have Said

And Yet ...

Some Those Who Are Called
Ministers Of The Gospel
- Your Ministers -
Are Saying
That No Man Has Ever Died
And
That Man Cannot Die!

And,  Lord

Some Of Them Are Saying 
That It Is Okay
To Pray To Dead People
Because They Are Not Truly Dead
But Are Really In Heaven
With You
Working For You
In Our Behalf
Even Though You Said
That Your Only Begotten Son
Jesus Christ
Died Once
For All Mankind
And Is In The Holy Of Holies
In The Heavenly Sanctuary
Interceding For His Faithful
Because
The Payment For Sin Was Death
And The Only Acceptable Payment Was Blood
The Pure Blood
Of The Unspotted,  Unblemished Lamb Of God
Who Took Away The Sin Of The Earth
And Who Laid Down His Own Life
And Died On The Cross Of Calvary
And Was Buried
And Who Took Back Up His Life
And Returned Home To You
In The Glorious Kingdom
And Is Coming Back To Earth - As You In Your Word Promised -
To Raise The Dead From Their Dusty Beds
In The Soil Of The Earth
From Which They Were Created -  By Your Word -
In The Hands Of The Word Of God
Who Was With You At The Creation Of The World
And Who Made All Things
For
Without Him
Was Not Anything Made That Was Made!

Father,  Have You Changed?
Have You Changed Your Plan?

You Said That You Do Nothing
Without Revealing The Same To Your Servants The Prophets!
You Also Said Not To Give Attention To Those Prophets
Who Say They Have Been Sent
With A Word From You
But Are Speaking -  Of Their Own Selves -
Lying Divinations!

You Said That Your Word Will Never Contradict Itself!

You Said That Understanding
Of Your Revealed Word
Will Be Found 
Precept Upon Precept
Line Upon Line
And Here A Little
There A Little!

Father,  You Said To Have Nothing To Do With Those
Who Have Familiar Spirits,
And Who Inquire Of Wizards That Peep!

How Is It Then
That Some Of The Ministers Of Your Truth
Are Saying That YOU Sent A Word Of Truth
To The Holy People 
Via The Very Instrumentality
That YOU Declared An Abomination?

Father,
Are You God
Or
Should I Look For Another?

Father,
You Said That Knowledge And Understanding
Will Be Increased In The Last Days
But I Can Find Nothing In Your Word 
That Says
That YOU Gave Men 
- Born Of Deceitful Disposition -
Permission
To Fix Your Holy Word
Especially Since You,  Yourself, Said
That Heaven And Earth Will Pass Away
BUT 
Not One Dot Nor Tittle 
- Nothing In Your Word -
Will Be Removed
Until All Of Your Word
Has Been Fulfilled!

Is There Another Book That You Have Written?

Father,
Why Are Your People Being Boldly Told
To Accept That YOU Can't Know Everything
And
That You Get Tired
And
Need Help From Finite Men
And
That You Are Too Busy
To Be Involved In Our Myriad And Various Affairs
As If You Are A Mere Man
Even Though You - Yourself -
Said That From Everlasting To Everlasting
You Are God
The Beginning And The Ending
The First And The Last
Who Made Heaven And Earth
And
All That IS In Them
And Who Is
-  In The Words Of The King -
With Us If We Are In Heaven
And If We Are  In Hell
You Will Be There Also?

Father, 
You,  Yourself,  Said
That If You Were Hungry
You Would Not Tell Us For Everything Is Yours!

You,  Yourself,  Said
That Heaven Is Your Throne
And
Earth Is Your Footstool
And That They Cannot Contain You
But,  Yet,
You May Live In The Heart-Temple Of Man!

Father,
You Say That You Call
All The Stars Of Heaven By Name
And That You Designate Their Courses!

You Say That You Have Great Storehouses Of Hail
Against The Day Of Battle!

You Say That You Have Counted Every Hair On My Head
And
That You Knew Me Before I Was Born!

Lord, You Say That No Man
Can See You Face To Face And Live!

You Say That Jesus Christ Is
The Visible Image Of The Invisible God
Who YOU Are!

Jesus Christ Died To Save Me
And
I Trust Him At His Word!

Jesus Christ Sent His Holy Spirit
To Comfort Me
To Teach Me
To Guide Me
And, Also 
To Chide Me
When I Go Astray!

For This,  Lord
I Give You Praise!

Jesus Christ Is My Peace!

Jesus Christ Said That He
IS The Way
The Truth
And
The Life
And
That I Can't Get To You
Except Through Him
And,  Yet,  Lord
There Are Those Who Insist
That A Personal Relationship
With My Jesus
Is Dangerous?!

Lord, Please Tell Me
Why Would He
Who Created Me
Who Sustains Me
Who Made The Salvation Of My Soul Possible
To Permit Me To Call You Father
And
Who Is Preparing A Place For Me
In Your House
Be A Danger To Me?

Father,
Are You Still On Your Throne
Or 
Has Satan Raised His Throne
Above Yours?

Lord,
I Can't See You
BUT
I Know You Are Here With Me
Right Now
In My Heart
And I - By Faith -
Choose To Walk
In The Jesus Way
Because Of The Living Truth
For I Love You,  Lord
And
I Desire To Receive The Eternal Life That You Promised
- To All Who Believe On Jesus Christ
Whom You Sent -
At The Trumpet Sound On The Last Day!

I Believe In You,  Lord!
Help Thou My Unbelief!

Please,  Lord
Order My Steps In Your Holy Word!

Give Me Your Eye-salve
And
Help Me You To Ever See!

Give Me The Garment Of Christ's Righteousness
That The Shame Of My Nakedness
The Mar Of My Sin
Be Not Exposed!

Help Me To Buy Of You
The Pure Gold That Has Been Tried
In Heaven's Fire
For I Desire My Soul's Salvation!

Lord,
Keep My Eyes Fixed
My Feet Firm
My Back To The Gospel Plow
My Hope For Heaven High
And
My Heart On Your Forever Home!

Lord,
Help Me Not To Heed
The Wily Call
The Willful Song
The Lustful Lullaby
The Deceitful Dirge
Nor
Satan's Silken Sinful Sounds In Songs!

Father,
Help Me To Speak Your Truth
Stand On Your Truth
Stand Up For Your Truth
No Matter The Matter
The Mess
Nor The Manner!

Father,
Please Hold Me!
Help Me!
Heal My Heart Of Sin and Wrong
And Let Me Not Be Swayed
By Illuminated Rhetoric
Nor By Church Economic Charts
Nor The Glittering Pageantry Of
The Traditions Of Unholy Men!

Have Mercy,  Lord,  On Me
For
I Desire The Right,  Lord
To Walk Through The Gates
And Enter Into Your City!

You Are Just!
You Are Faithful
And
I Confess My Sins!

Please,  Father
Forgive My Sins
And
Clean Me Of All Unrighteousness!
Let Your Mercy,  Lord
Not Only Forgive My Sins
But Blot Them Out Of Your Book Of Remembrance!

Oh,  Lord,
Help Me To Live
And
Let Me Die
Sealed
In Your Living
Preserved
Holy Word!

Let My Salt Be Savory
For Else It Will Be No Good
Save To Be Cast Upon The Ground
And
Trampled Underfoot
And
Let  My Light Shine Brightly
Before All Men
So That Your Holy Name
Will Be Glorified
Until The Great And Terrible Day
When All The Saints Of God
Some Still Living And Those Once Dead
Shall Ascend
To The Heights Of Heaven
As
The Church Triumphant
For I Love You
My Lord
And
My God!
Come Lord!
Amen.
