HAPPY SABBATH + Don't Let Satan Gaslight You!

 











Beloved, 

We Should Know That In The Household Of Faith 
There Is No Such Thing As Participation In "Borderline" Sin! 

We Know That This Is So 
Because 
We Are Commanded To Abstain, To Shun
To Stay Away From Anything That Has The Appearance
The Look, The Image
The Stamp Of Evil, Of Sin! 

Dear Ones, 

There Is An Old Saw Which Says: 


"Play With The Kitty
And
Know That You Will Get Scratched!" 


Kitty Or Catty, They Both Have Claws! 

By Now We Should Know That Satan, The Originator Of Sin
Is 
A Gaslighting Specialist 
Who Would Have Us Believe Other Than What We Know To Be 
The Saving Truth! 

Sin Destroys! 
Sin Is An Aphrodisiac 
Aka One Sin Is Never Enough! 

Borderline Sin Which Is Sin
Is Like
Knowing You Cannot Have Chocolate Cake 
And 
Choosing To Make And Bake One 
And 
Cutting It Up And Giving Away All The Slices 
And Then
Eating The Crumbs And Licking The Cake-Plate With Relish! 

Abstinence 
Is 
A Voluntary Act With Moral And Eternal Implications: 
It Pleases Our Lord Jesus Christ! 

We Are To Abstain From Sin 
And 
Everything That Even Remotely Looks Like Sin 
And Instead 
Joyfully Embrace Christ's Free-To-All Salvation! 

Let Us Not Fool Ourselves! 
Eating The Crumbs Of What Will Kill You 
Will Kill You Just As Dead! 

Be Warned ... 


Self-Satisfaction
Sacrifices
Salvation
On
The Altar Of Sin! 



Let Us Fervently Pray For The Holy Spirit's Help 
To Keep Ourselves Firm In Our Resolve 
To Abstain From Anything That Looks Like Evil, Like Sin, Today! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Reject Evil To Live In The Bright Presence!










We Should Be Very Afraid To Do Anything That 
Even Remotely Has The Aroma, Fragrance, Stench
Or Stink Of Wickedness ... Evil! 

Beloved, 

The Lord God Almighty Does Not Have A Lisp
A Stutter, A Stammer, A Tied Tongue
Nor Is Dumb 
So Let Us Not Play Fast And Loose 
With The Living Word Of Saving Truth 
Which Can Both Shame And Cut Us Apart 
And
Also Liberate And Elevate Us! 

Dear Ones, 

The Lord Is Not A Monster 
But 
Is Master Of All He Surveys
All That He Has Created
So We Should Hear And Heed What He Says 
Because 
He Means It
And Because 
He Loves Us
And Because 
His Holy Love Does Not Hurt Or Cause Sorrow 
And Because 
We Seek To Return His Undying Love 
By Showing Him Our Willing Obedience! 

Almighty God's Laws Are Few 
And 
Eternity Is Long! 

Sin Has A Shelf Life 
But 
Salvation Is Everlasting! 

The King Of Love Is Glorious 
But 
The Usurper, The Wannabe God
Is 
A Base And Bold Fraud! 

Please, I Beseech And Encourage Us All 
To Humble Ourselves Before The Lord 
So That We May Enjoy The Now Unimaginable Blessings 
Reserved For The Pilgrim Band Known Righteous! 

Reject Evil 
And 
Dare To Let The Lord Embrace You With Eternal Love 
To Live In His Bright Presence! 

Pray, Dear Ones! 
Pray ... And Stay Focused On 
The Goodness And Good News Of Our Lord Jesus! 

Peace!

We Now Have The Opportunity To Do Love!




Amazing Grace For Us 
Comes From The Heart Of Abiding Love Toward Us! 

Beloved, 

Even Though Our Human Known Carnal Hearts 
Are Toward Committing Evil Continually
The King Of Love 
- Who Is Our Only Shepherd And Savior - 
Freely Decided To Give To Us The Way
The Opportunity To  Know, Experience
And 
Do Love Right! 

Not One Of Us In Our Right Minds
Having Been With The Lord Christ
Will Choose To Be Unlovely Aka Ugly
Unloving, Unkind, Or Uncaring! 

Jesus Christ Is The Perfect Example Of Love! 
He Is Love Personified 
And 
Will Not Reject Any Of Us Who Choose To Find A Home 
Under His Banner Of Love! 

To Know Jesus Is To Love Jesus 
And 
To Love Jesus Is To Love Our Brethren 
- As We Love Ourselves - 
By Blood, By Faith, By Affection
And 
By Reason Of The Fact That 
They Are Created By The God Who Sees, Feels, Hears
And 
Sees Every Single Thing That We Think, Say, And Do! 

Dear Ones, 

Without Our Blessed Lord's Amazing Grace And Abiding Love
We Would Not Exist! 

We Now Have The Opportunity To Do Love 
And 
To Stand Firm In The Unfailing Faith That 
Jesus Christ Daily Gives To Us To Be ... For Him! 

Please Do Not Permit The Damned One 
To Encourage You To Scorn Your Daily Blessings 
From The Eternal One God 
Who Gives Grace Aka Favor Aka Power! 

Please Let Love Abide With You 
And
Dare To Abundantly Share It With Others!  

Peace!

Walk, Work, And Watch In Obedience!



The To-Christ Order Of Operations: 
What To Do First! 
Do We Behave And Then Believe, Or Vice Versa!?! 

Our Holy Bible Tells Us That 
All Who Come To God Must Believe That 
He Is God And A Rewarder Of Those Who Diligently Seek Him! 

Simply Put:

"If We: Then He!" 


Put Another Way
If We Confess Our Sins
Then He Is Faithful And Just To Forgive Us Our Sins 
And
To Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness! 

Dear Ones, 

On Your First Day At Your New Job That 
You Chose 
And
Was Accepted For
You Do Not Receive Your Future To-Be-Regular Paycheck 
Plus Overtime
And Bonus
And Travel And Entertainment Allowance! 

Only Performance Pays Off! 

Our Savior Dear Is Able To Say "If We" 
Because 
He Already Did The Necessary To Grant Us Free 
And 
Open Access To The Throne Of Grace
So We Must Know Who We Are Without Christ: Sinners Damned
Who We Are In Christ: Sinners Saved Aka Saints Of God And Christ
And 
The Requirements 
To Be Able To Wear The White Robe Of His Righteousness! 

In Order To Have ACR-A Clean Record Next To Our Name
We Must Accept The Offered Gift Of Salvation
Confess Our Known Sin
Repent Of The Evil
And 
Walk, Work, And Watch In Obedience! 

The Humility Of Worked Faith Keeps Us On The Way! 
Overcomers Are Faith-Working Believers! 
Never Forget It! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Falling In The Ditch!




Are Your Counselors Living By The Holy Faith!?! 

One Of The Most Dangerous Pieces Of Moral Theater That 
Is Being Practiced Today 
Is 
Going Online Aka The New Public Square 
And 
Asking Hundreds Of Thousands
Even Millions Of People
 To Decide If The Step You Have Taken 
Is 
The Step That You Should Have Taken
And 
To Confirm You In Some Act Of Behavior 
Which Common-Sense 
And 
Biblical Morality 
Should Plainly Say To The Right-Thinking Soul That 
This Is Either Right To Walk In 
Or
Wrong And To Be Avoided! 

Beloved, 

On Judgment Day 
The Lord Jesus, The Judge Of All Flesh
Will Not Ask You 
If 
You Did All According To The Public-Majority
Which We Already Know 
Is 
Always Wrong! 

Never Follow The Multitude To Do Evil! 
Follow The "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Let Us Choose To Pray 
And 
Ask The Lord God Almighty For Wisdom 
And
Stop Being Like The Doctors Of The Law And The Pharisees 
Who Wanted The Road To Fit Their Feet 
Instead Of Their Feet Following The Path Clearly Marked! 

The Lord Jesus Christ Saves Individuals: 
He Gave To Each Of Us A Body
A Brain
And 
His Breath Of Life! 

There Is No Borg Collective
No Hive Mind
No Group Think! 
There Is One Person
And 
His Or Her Relationship With The Creator-God 
Who Invites Us To Reason With Him! 

The Blind Leading The Blind 
Makes For A Sold-Out Performance Of 

"Falling In The Ditch!" 

Please Follow Jesus Christ The Lord 
And Not 
Satan The God-Fraud! 

The Holy Spirit Is Still Teaching: 
Join The Class! 

Peace!

A White-Robed Devil Is Still Evil!




The Character Of Christians As We Purport To Emulate 
And
Represent Our Lord Jesus 
Calls Our Credibility Into Question! 

Beloved, 

We Who Claim Christ As King And Lord Of Our Lives
The Captain Of Our Salvation
And 
Our Hope For Surpassing Glory 
Must Be Vigilant As Regards How We Walk, Talk, And Act 
So That The Messages That We Send To Our Observers
- Christian And Non-Christian - 
Do Not Cause Them To Be Put Off Desiring 
Our Lord Jesus Christ! 

Never, Ever, Forget That 
By Our Words, We Are Justified 
And
By Our Words, We Are Condemned! 

Strangely Stunning 
And 
Devastatingly Important 
Is 
The Fact That Our Actions Loudly And Clearly 
Speak The Truth About Who Is Our Guardian 
Our Life-Guide
And 
Our Stay Aka The One Who Keeps Us In The Way That 
We Personally Desire To Walk! 

A White-Robed Devil Is Still Evil! 

The Christ That We Emulate 
Was The Same Morning, Evening, Noon, And Night! 
He Was Loving, Gentle, Kind, And Caring! 
He Was Prayerful, Useful, Blessing, Giving, And Forgiving! 
He Inspired Hope And Provided Help And Healing 
And
Most Of All
His Loving-Kindness
His Words Of Wisdom Giving Direction 
And
Correction 
Inspired Positive Change In Those Who Genuinely Sought After 
The True And Living God! 

Dear Ones, 

Our Character Is Either A Knife Or A Spoon! 
By Almighty God's Great Grace
Let Us Be Spoons And Feed Someone With Food That 
Is 
Good For Them Today! 

Please Put On 
And
Live For The Lord Jesus Christ! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: EVIL: Name It And Shame It!






The Way Of Evil 
Is 
As Mesmerizing As The Eyes Of Snakes
And 
The Designs On Their Skins! 

There Is No Explanation Nor Excuse For Evil! 

There Is No Safe Way To "Play" With Evil 
And
There Is No Avoiding The Stain Nor Stench Of 
Having Been Enmeshed, Involved, With Evil! 

Evil Turns Life Upside Down And Backward! 

We Cannot Live Peacefully With Evil 
No Matter The Popular Word On The Street
In Movies
TV Shows
Books
And 
Role-Play Games! 

Beloved, 

Evil ... Just Like Sin
Must Be Properly Named 
And 
Shamed 
No Matter Who Is Doing It
And 
No Matter Why It Is Being Done!

Potiphar's Wife 
Tried To Get Patriarch Jacob-Israel's Beloved Son, Joseph
Their Purchased Slave
To Do Evil In The Ever-Present God's Sight: 
He Rejected Her
And 
Called Her Out On It! 

Joseph Remained Clean Before The Lord 
Even Though He Endured Unearned Disgrace
Much Suffering
And 
Unimaginable Sorrow! 

Our Lord Jesus ... The Judge Of All Flesh
Vindicated Joseph 
And
Elevated Him Above Said Potiphar 
And 
His Evil, Lying, Wife! 

Dear Ones, 

Evil, Like Lead, Sinks Under Its Own Weight! 

Cream Aka Goodness, Like The Sun
Rises Because Of Its Nature 
And
Does Its Appointed Work 
As Ordained By Its Maker! 

Let No One Deceive, Beguile, You: 
Right And Light Have No Midnight 
In Almighty God's All-Seeing, All-Knowing, Holy Sight! 

Avoid Even The Appearance Of Evil! 

Peace!

Appearances Reveal A Lot!

 



If Your Bird, Your Cat, And Your Dog All Bark 
Which One Is The Real Guard Dog!?!

Nature Wins Out! 

Think About This ...

If Your Church Pastor Is A Noted Bass-Man 
Who Is Suddenly Singing Soprano
And Is A Man At The Church 
And The Lady Of The House Called Home
A Day Trader 
And A Night Walker 
And
Preaches The Most Riveting Sermons Of Truth 
About Another Jesus And Another Gospel
Is He Still The Anointed, Appointed
True, Faithful, Servant Of The Holy God!?! 

Dear Lord!
Even On Paper, This Looks Evil!

Who Is He!?! 
Who Are We!?!
 
What Are We All Saying And Doing!?! 

Are We All Alright With Our Lord!?! 

Beloved, 

Goods Come In Various Sizes, Colors, Packages
Prices
And 
For All Tastes! 
Some Are Good And Delicious! 
Some Smell Sweet But Are Deadly! 
Some Taste Horrid And Are Healthful! 

The Good And Healthful Come In Simple Colors 
And 
Plain Packaging
And 
The Sweet And Deadly Are Delightfully Packaged 
To Overload The Senses! 

How, Then, Does One Shun All Evil 
When Good For You Ain't Appealing To You!?! 

Work Your Gift Of Faith ...

Choose To Trust The Word Of The Lord
Follow The Great Example Aka Jesus Christ
And 
Don't Ever Forget That Good, Right, Truth, Light
Love, Joy, Hope, Peace
And 
Blessing Have No Need Of Added Color
A Run Through The Spin Cycle
The Tender Devotions Of The Polish Brush Or Cloth
Or A Whiff Of The Perfume Called Purity! 

All The Gifts Of God Are Good 
And
A Million Years From Their First Appearance 
They Will Still Look, Smell, Taste
Feel, Speak
And 
Definitely Do As Ordered By The Creator God! 

Inside And Outside
Are The Same Thing!

Goodness Doesn't Need To Glory
Change Its Nature
Speak Itself Into Relevance
Or Be Fashionable 
To Fit In To Execute Its Mission! 

Our Good Lord Jesus 
Is 
The Same Real Savior 
Yesterday, Today, And Forever! 

There Is No Evil In Our Blessed-Forever Jesus: 
Embrace Him
And
Trust His Heart! 

Peace!

If Something Has The Look Of Evil
Don't Make Jokes
And
Call It A Masquerade Costume!

**--**--**--**--** 

A Washed Sow Is Still A Pig
And
A Pig In Pearls
Can Still Tear You Apart!

The Evil That Men Do Lives After Them!







There Is The Famous Expression Which Says: 
"The Evil That Men Do Lives After Them!" 
But
Have You Personally Considered That The Reverse Is Also True: 
"The Good That Men Do Lives After Them!?!" 

Beloved, 

Being A Free-Will Agent
With Freedom To Choose To Do Either Right Or Wrong
Love Or Hate
Do Good Or Evil
And 
To Dwell In The Light Of Life 
Or
Abide In The Darkness Of Death
Which Would You Honestly And With Wisdom Choose!?! 

The Children Of The Light 
Aka The Children Of Day
The Children Of The Heavenly Father 
Should, Without Hesitation Or Reservation
Choose Love, Light, Day, Good, Right
And 
Eternal Life! 

Anything That Is Lawless Aka Sinful 
Has A Short Shelf Life When Compared To Eternity 
So Don't Waste Time 
Going After What Shall Not See The Light Of Life 
After The Lord's Appearing! 

Goodness Grows! 
Hope Heals! 
Happiness Elevates!

And 

Truth, Saving Truth, Radically Transforms! 

Sooo, How About Building 
A Sure House With Bricks Of Goodness 
And 
Plastering Them With The Cement Of Truth!?! 

How About Panelling Your Walls With Trust In God!?! 

How About Having Windows Made Of Faith 
And 
Your Stairways Constructed From Endurance!?! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Make Your Doors Out Of Obedience 
And 
See That Every Nail And Screw Used 
Is 
Of The Living Word 
Which Unerringly Preserves The Inhabitants! 

Do You Know The Pedigree Of Your Legacy!?! 

It Is Not Too Late To Change Direction! 
Jesus Christ, Alone, Saves
And
Always To The Uttermost! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: THE BIRTH-RIGHT: Waiting For A Meal Isn't Deadly!









Red Bean Stew Is Delicious 
And
So Are A Multitude Of Other Dishes 
But
Based On Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge
Blessed Promise 
And
Outright Warning
I Am Not Willing To Sell My God-Given Birth-Right Of 
Eternal Bliss, Peace, Joy And Rest
For The Happy-Belly Joy Of One Meal! 

Would You!?! 

Brethren, 

Almighty God's Sacrifice ... In The Person Of Jesus Christ 
Guarantees Us The Birth-Right Of Eternal Life With Christ 
Aka Immortality
Incorruptibility
A New Name
The Crown Of Life
And 
A Forever Place In The Father's House That 
No One Else May Claim 
Either By Coercion Or Deceit
Quit-Claim Deed Or Supposed Outright Purchase! 

In The Name Of Jesus
Don't Sell What You Can't By Back!

Thirsty Or Supposedly Dying Of Hunger
We Have The Promise That Our Bread And Water Are Sure 
So Don't Stop Short Of The Father's Tents Of Safety 
To Indulge Over-Indulged Self 
And 
To "Enjoy" The Temporary Convenience That 
Eternally Costs! 

Over-Indulgence Is Sin: 
Self-Denial Is Not! 

Waiting On Your Blessing Is No Weight! 

Weighing Convenient Fast-Food As More Valuable 
Aka More Beneficial Than Your Eternal Blessing 
Is 
Unadulterated Folly Aka Bold Sinning! 

Please Think On These Things Now 
While Abundance Is Available! 

Choosing To Miss A Meal Or Two
Just Because You Can
Will Surely Build Self-Control
Aka Staying Power
When Evil Starts Throwing About Its Ungodly Power!

Waiting For A Meal Isn't Deadly! 

Peace!


Don't Live For Your Belly!
Live By Faith!

Truth Has No Expiration Date!








Okay! 
Let's Recap! 

Truth Has No Expiration Date! 

Salvation ... Which Includes Grace And Mercy
Has A Guaranteed-By Date! 

And

Evil Has A Use-By Date!

Please Think Deeply On These Things! 

Fret Not Thyself Over Evil-Doers 
Is 
The Take-It-To-The-Bank Command! 

Cast Your Burden On The Lord 
Is 
The Make-Haste-And-Do-It Command! 

Trust Ye In The Lord Forever 
Is 
The Always-Use Command! 

Pray Without Ceasing 
Is 
The Rest-Easy-In-Jesus Command! 

Beloved, 

Every Do And Don't-Do Command Of The Lord Jesus Christ 
Has The Weight Of Eternity Firmly Fixed To It 
And 
We, As Christians Committed To The Cause Of Christ
Should Never, Ever, Join With The Doubters
The Unbelievers
And 
Those Who Are Antagonized By The Plain Truth Of 
The Eternal Word Of The Omnipotent God 
To Place Saving Truth On The Same Ground
The Same Level
As The So-Called Great Works Of Literature! 

The Great Writers Wrote Their Conception Of The Truth! 

The Holy Word
Is 
The Good-News Gospel Truth Which Saves 
Aka Points One To Jesus Christ 
And 
Everlasting Life! 

Let's Get Our Priorities In Order 
And 
Do As We Are Instructed 
So That We Will Have The Peace That 
Passes Human Understanding! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous Aka The Truth
Never Changes: 
Learn And Live: 
Walk Wisely!

Peace!

GOOD OR BAD: Everybody Sets An Example!






Growing Up
We Were Always Instructed To Set A Good Example
To Follow Good Examples
And 
To Never Be The Bad Example
The Means By Which Someone 
Is 
Led Astray To Do Evil! 

Surprise ... No Surprise
Anybody May Set An Example 
But
The Real Question Is
Are You Setting The Good Example 
Worthy For Others To Accept 
And ... With Wisdom
Follow!?! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ The Righteous Judge
The Kind King
The Hope Of Every Man
Is
Our Exemplar 
Aka Ensample 
Aka Perfect Example
The One Whom We Could "Close Our Eyes" 
And
Without Reservation
Dare To Follow Faithfully! 

We, However
Don't Follow The Lord Christ Blindly! 

We Follow Our Dear Savior 
Through Good Evidence
Faith That Cannot Fail
Trust That Will Never Be Abused 
And
With Love For The Holy Love 
Which Will Never See Us Being Made Ashamed! 

True Believers Aka Committed-To-Christ Christians
Are Not Ashamed Of The Truth 
And 
We Should Never Be Afraid 
Or Ashamed To Permit Others To See Us 
Walking In Full Agreement With The Truth 
In The Living Light Of The Good News Gospel That 
Leads All Who Are Willing To Be Saved 
To Eternal Life! 

A Bad Example Costs The Wicked Instructor 
And 
His Careless And Willful Imitators! 

The Good Example Rewards Both The Wise Teacher 
And 
His Diligent Students! 

Please Let Us Dare To Direct Someone 
To The Good And Holy Way Today 
And
Without Hesitation, Fear, Or Shame: 
Jesus Christ Made The Way Plain 
And
He Always Saves!

COOPERATE WITH CHRIST: Exchange Ashes To Get BeautiFULL






The Lord Never, Ever, Asks Us 
To Do Anything That Cannot Be Done 
Or For Which He Has Not Equipped Us To Accomplish 
Via Our Belief, Faith, And Trust In The Living Word That 
Testifies Of Him 
And 
Speaks Life To Us! 

Beloved, 

Even Though Holy Writ Says That 
"I Can Do All Things Through Christ 
Who Strengthens Me!" 
It Means That We Can Do All That 
Is 
Good And True ... In The Way Of Righteousness! 

The Lord Is Holy 
So He Cannot Strengthen Us 
To Do Evil ... To Sin! 

We Are Called Out Of Sin 
And 
Unto Salvation 
And 
No One Who Free-Will Chooses 
To Do Evil For Self-Gratification 
And
Makes Themselves A Reprobate 
Aka Condemned, Unredeemable By Habit Aka Practice 
Aka By Their Way Of Life 
Is 
Going To Be Revived And Reformed 
Aka Renovated From The Inside Out 
And 
Restored, Elevated, To The Father's House 
With All Of Its Attendant Rights And Privileges! 

Is Your Heart Right With Almighty God!?! 

Are You Doing To Others What You Want Done To You!?! 

Are You Kind, Loving, Good
Faithful, Temperate, And True 
Or
Are You On Satan's Bungee Cord Of Dung Doings
Terrible Talk 
And 
Fraught Feelings 
Which Is Sure To Break While You Think That 
You Are Really Flying Wild And Free!?! 

Examine Yourself Today! 
It Will Not Be Pretty 
So Just Remember That 
Our Lord Jesus Gives Us Beauty
Makes Us Beautiful 
When We Give Him Our Ashes! 

Please Cooperate With Christ: 
Peace With Almighty God Is Precious!
