VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Words Don't Discriminate!

1 Corinthians 10:23 KJV

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

By Your Own Words You Will Be Commended AND By Your Words YOU Will Be Condemned!

Well, Sweet-Girl, Samallorie Found Out! She Was Walking Around Taking Smack About People, And Poking People With Her Pointer, And Did She Ever Find Out That She Stood Accused By Three Of Her Own Digits! 

It Was Glorious To See Her Crumble Under The Weight Of Her Self-Own! 

Mastiff, Samallorie Looked Whole And Sounded Fine When I Saw Her About An Hour Ago, So I Don't Know What You're Talking About! 

Bro. Bass, Would You Tell Us About Accusers, Commendation, And Condemnation!?! This Business With Samallorie Sounds Interesting ... From A Biblical Standpoint, Of Course! 

Sure Can, Remmie! 

Look Who Just Walked In! 

Please Come And Join Us, Samallorie! 

Hello, Bro. Bass, Brethren! 

Why So Glum, Samallorie!?! 

My Mouth! 

I Did A Satan And It Was The Pitts! 

Or A Pit Stop, You Mean! 

I Hear You, Bonita! 

I Learnt A Hard, Harsh Lesson Today About The Red Rag Raging, And Then I Got Smacked Hard By The Living Scripture Which Only Speaks The Truth! 

I Looked At Someone And Wished That They Would Raise Their Standard Aka Step Up Higher When, Lo And Behold, The Holy Spirit Spoke, Asking The Simple Question: Why Don't YOU Raise Your Standard Higher!?! 

I Nearly Fell Over With Shock! 

Obviously, If I Need To Raise My Standard, I Am Falling Short Of The Grade! 

I Felt Gutted ...! 

... Samallorie, We Do Not Deal In Feelings! 

I Know, Bro. Bass, But, In That Moment, I Remembered The Accuser Of The Brethren! 

I Was Being His Ally ...! You Know ... I Was Doing His Dirty Work Instead Of Trying  To Lift Someone Up To The Lord Christ! 

My Thoughts Went Wild: He That Is Without Sin ... Let Your Words Edify ... Grant Grace ... Lift Up The Fallen And I, Crushed, Said, In Tears, Teach Me Thy Way, Oh, Lord! 

I Understood, And, Like Apostle Paul, I Said, Who Shall Deliver Me From The Body Of This Death!?! I Pointed One Superior-Looking Finger At A Person And Three Ordinary, Blunt Fingers Expertly Slayed And Laid Me Out Like They Were Lightning-Round Chefs! 

Brethren, I Saw My Self For Myself And My Self Needed Awareness! I Humbled Myself, And I Prayed, And I Beseeched The Lord To Help Me To Turn From My Wicked Ways So That He Would Hear From Heaven And Forgive My Sin And Heal Our Land ... Heal Me! 

Beloved, Loose Lips Sink Ships! 

Unkind Words Are A Self-Made Millstone For Me And An Out Of Place, Out Of Time Milestone To My Hearers! 

All I Heard After That Was "Let My Words Edify!" 

Bro. Bass, I, I ...! 

... It's Okay, Samallorie! 

Brethren, I Sincerely Hope And Pray That This Will Be A Lesson To Us All! Words Have Weight! 

Words Work ... Overtime! 

Words Don't Discriminate! 

Show Your Red Clothing And Other Helpful Objects: Show Your Red Rag, Your Tongue, To Bless! 

Peace!

Says The Lord Of Hosts!

Truth ... Torn, Tarnished
Thrown Down Into The Dirty Streets
Will Never Ever Be A Lie
No Matter What The Elevated Liar
Vehemently Passionately Cries!

Faith Is Not Reasonable! 
Wisdom Is Not Cheap!
Truth Is Never Embellished!
Jesus Christ For The Dankest Dirtiest Soul
Will Ever, Ever, Reach!

Fear God! Keep All Of His Commandments!
All Matters Have A Start And A Conclusion!
You Are The Interested, Disinterested, Observer
So Be Brave And Always Critically Think! 

Don't Fall For 

Or Go To ... The Obvious Answer!

Pray A Prayer For The Wisdom Of The Eternal God
And
Let Proverbs 24:3-4 Edify!

Faithful Man?!

In The Tribe Called Mankind
In The Family Called Friend
In The Household Called Christian
In The Man Called Faithful
Was Sin!

Bold Sin
Willful Sin
Death-Dealing Sin
AND
All Without Justification!

Come On!
There Is Never Any Justification For Sin!

You Know That 
And I Know That
BUT
There Is A Point To Be Made Here!

Okay. I Await Edification!

Those Old Hebrews
- The Christian Family Of Today -
Had A Work To Do
AND
They Were Given Instructions Most Clear:

Go To Jericho
The Abominable Estate
Where Gross Challenge
To The Eternal God
Is Wittingly Exercised
AND
Level It!
Level It!
Level It To The Ground!
And Don't Mess Around!

Only Rahab 

The God-Believing Helpful Harlot
- For True-Hearted Help -
AND
Her Family In Her House
Would Could
Walk Through Safety's Promised Door!

Everything Else Breathing
Was Marked For Death!
Everything Else Was Marked 
For Burning's Hot Breath
AND
What Could Not Be Burned
- Gold Silver Copper Iron -
Was To Be Dedicated
To The Use Of God's Temple
As A Sacrifice To The Holy God!

In Short,
No Man Shall Grease His Own Palm!

Yes! That Was The Specified Plan!

But ...

As We Too Often Hear And See
Some Greedy Gus
Is Always Stealing
And Hiding The Loot Under Stuff
Inside And Under The Floor Of His Canopy
AND
Causing The Apparently Innocent
To Pay For The Temporarily Concealed
Guilty!

But Know This ...

The Living God
Is The Keeper
Of ALL Doors!
AND
You
Me
Nor We 
Can Build A Sound House
With Level Floors
IF
We Are Building On That Other Foundation
That The Living God Will Not Secure!

So Much To Do! 

So Little Time! 

If Man Will Take In Wisdom's Education

Life On This Earth

Following The Faithful Shepherd
The Holy God

Will Be Perfectly Sublime! 

But ...

What Is Your Point, Again!

Go Bold
AND
Do As YOU Are Told!
No Arms In Disobedience Should YOU Fold!
No Steps Taken
Should Be Other Than Those Prescribed
AND
YOU Will Achieve Heaven's Tried Gold!

I Feel You, Man!
I Feel You!
Give Me Your Hand!

Wrong Doing

May Be Hidden From Man ... For A Time!

BUT

The All-Seeing Ever-Present God

Sees What You Are Doing 

Every Single Time!
