Truth Against Error! Light Against Darkness! Salvation Against Damnation! The Personal Fight Over Self And Sin! True Worship Versus False Worship! Jesus Christ Versus Satan! Heavenly Home Versus Burning Hell! Life Of Holy Love Versus Loving Carnal Life!

In That Case, My Brother:

What, What, About You!?!
I'd Never Known About Jesus At Least Not In This Way! He's Never Been A Part Of My Experience! Will He Also For My Sins Pay!?!

Almighty God Loves Me ... Personally! That's Nice! He Loves You, Personally, As Well! Is That Right!?! Yes, It Is! How Do You Know That To Be The Truth!?! John 3:16 In My Trusty Old King James Says It Plainly! Okay. You Don't Sound Very Convinced To Me! I Will Not Tell A Lie! I'm Not! ... Really! Let Me Holler At You ... I Love Peppermint And I Have Just One Peppermint! I Was About To Open It For A Treat! You Start Coughing And Ask Me If I Have A Peppermint! I Have A Want! You Have A Visible Need! I Make An Informed Call! I Leave Out Myself And I Give My Only And Cherished Peppermint To You! Do I Love You Or Not!?! That Doesn't Prove A Thing! You May Have Just Felt Sorry For Me! You Were Just Being Kind! That Is Exactly The Attitude Of Ungrateful Humans To Jesus Christ The Righteous The Most Precious Given Unto Us By Almighty God! Excuse Me!?! If You Really Saw And Acknowledged Your Need You Would Realize That Jesus Christ Is The Perfect Gift Who Keeps On Giving ... For Eternity! Father God Did Not Have To Give His Only Son To Save A Bunch Of Ungrateful Dust Bunnies! He Is Almighty And He Could Have Wiped The Slate Aka Earth, Clean But He Loved, Loves, Us With An Everlasting Love And Recognizing That There Was, Is, Nothing Of Ourselves That Could Remove From Our Persons The Damning Stain Of Sin He Chose To Give Of His Everlasting Love To Save Us From Our Own Sin! But That's Like The Head Teacher Spanking Himself For A Beloved Student's Bad Behavior! I Could Kiss You! You Are Absolutely Brilliant! What Was That Verse Again!?! John 3:16 For God (From The Beginning) So Loved The World (The All-Encompassing Love Is Holy And Divine) That He Gave (To The Fallen And Cursed World ... Willingly) His Only Begotten Son (There Is No More "Blood" Progeny In God's House) That Whosoever Believeth On Him (Every Man's Got To Willingly Choose To Believe That He Is) Shall Not Perish (The Wages Of Known Sin Is Certain Death) But Have Everlasting Life! (Jesus Christ Bought And Paid For And Promises Us A Forever Life In His Father's House)! If That Isn't Love I Don't Want To Know I Have No Desire To Know What Else Could Be! I Never Considered It Like That! Maybe It's Time That All Of Us Do See It Like That! If We Don't, We Are In For An Eternity Of Hurt Aka Eternal Separation From Almighty God! Indeed! The Fate Worse Than Death! I Never Knew That There Was A Fate Worse Than Death! Well, Brother, You Know Now!
**--**--**--**--**
The Gift Of Love Is Precious! The Giver Of The Gift Is Almighty God Who Gave His Beloved Son To Save Our Souls From Sin And The Second Death Which Is Eternal Separation From The True And Living Eternal Holy God! The Gift Of Love Costs Us Nothing! The Gift Cost Our Father In Heaven The Only Begotten Son And All Who Will To Be Forever Saved Must Turn To The Righteous Son In Total Adoration And Thereby Give That Wicked Old Satan None!
The Holy Gift Is The True Blessing
To All Who Will Believe Holy Truth
And
Deny The Bold Liar
Whose Sworn Task Is To Mankind Deceive
Into Sin And Bold Rebellion
To Hate And Not To Love
So That They Will Be Damned As He Is
Because

That They Will Suffer His Just And Known Fate!
