CONGREGATION: Who Is In Control?!

Any Religion
That Permits Adherents To Indulge
In Selfish Or Sensual Gratification
Is As Pleasing To The Multitudes Today
As When The Israelites Were In The Desert
AND
There Are Many Pastors Working
Just Like Aaron Of Old

- Before He Was High Priest -
Weak-Willed

AND
Self-Serving
Who Pander To The Desires
Of The Unconverted
The Mixed-Multitude
Those Loud Ones
Bold
AND
Leads Them Blood Hot
Into Plain Sin Cold!

Loud Voices
Make No One Right
Just Because
They Are Willing
Someone Off The Face Of The Earth
To Wipe
AND
We Who Choose
To Stand In The Breaches
On The Word Of The Lord
Should Be Ready To Do Battle
IF 

We Will To Walk With God
In Accord!

Really?!
You Should Know Better
Than To Encourage
The People Of God
To Indulge In Physical Battle!

I Never Said Anything About Physical Battle!

But You Said:
" ... Ready To Do Battle!"
And That, My Friend
Means Fight!

Come Onnnnn!
Now YOU Should Know Better
For
The Weapons Of Our Warfare
Are Spiritual
Not Physical
AND
Those Who Rise Up
With Arms In Hand
Are Unconverted
Unchristian
Unusual!

Don't You Remember...
Not By Might
Nor By Power
BUT
By My Spirit
Says The Lord Of Hosts?!

And What About  ...

Those Who Go On The Great Commission
Should Be Men Of Integrity
Willing Able And Capable
To Issue The Stern Rebuke
Unmindful Of The Backlash
The Fallout
The Friend Spurn
AND
Trusting The Word Of God
Should Not
To The Left
Nor To The Right
Turn!

God's Justice Is Sure
Even Though It Is Often Not Swift
AND
Even In This
Man - By Choice -
Out Of The Dust Of Degradation
His Own Soul May Uplift
By Acknowledging The Sin
By Going To God In Contrition
To Repent
AND Thereby
The Sure Hand Of Justice
From Undiluted Vengeance
Through Mercy
From The Death Decree
Shall Relent!

God's Promises Are True!
God's Ways Are All Right!

AND
The End Of God's Return On Your Investment
Is
Eternally Out Of Sight!

Tasks To Be Performed
May Be Unpleasant
BUT
Lest Ye Forget
They May Be There To Test You
So
Think Always Of The Crucible
AND
Do Exactly
What The Good Lord
Gently Asks Of You!

I Bid You Think Of The Before-Conversion Aaron
Ever Willing To Please
BUT
Man-Pleaser That He Was
Caused The Death Of 3,000 Persons
Who Were Cut Down Like Trees
AND
Though In This Day
The Death Toll Is Not In An Apparent Instant
The Outcome Will Be The Same
So
Pastors
Preachers
Teachers Priests
Look To Yourselves
AND
Ask God
For A Converted Heart
I Beseech You
On Bended Knees!

Take The Exam

And

By And In Jesus' Faith

Pass The Test

And

In Jesus Christ's Peace

Be Blessed

And

Forever Rest! 

THE RELIGION OF THE STATE: Commit Your Soul Unto God

There is A Day Soon Coming
When There Will Be The Religion of The State
When Acceptance or Denial of Such
Will Determine Our Eternal Fate!

The State Religion Will Be Such
That Other Gods Will Have Preeminence
AND
The Living Holy God
Will Be The Legislated Irrelevance!

Our Conscience Will Be Put Up For Sale
For Barter
Even Exchange
For We Will Be Required To Make The Choice
That Will Make Godly Living
To The Satan In-dwelt Man-God
A Truly Vile Act
HIDEOUSLY PROFANE!

It Is In That Day That Believers
In The True And Living Holy God
Must Stand Up And Be Counted
OR
Be Counted As One With King Fraud!

Just Remember That The God Of Heaven
Has Made Provision For His Children
So While Salvation Is Available 
TODAY
Accept It 
NOW
So That You Will Not Hear:

"He That Is Unjust
Let Him Be Unjust Still
AND
He That Is Filthy
Let Him Be Filthy Still!"
(Revelation 22:11 In Pertinent Part)

REMEMBER THE TRAINER'S JOKE:

The Chicken Participated

BUT

The Pig Committed!

With The True And Living Holy God
Total Trust and Complete Commitment IS Key!

A Little Bit Committed To God Is Like Being A Little Bit Dead!

It Is An Impossibility!

Judgment Will Begin At The House Of God

So ...

Be Sure 
TODAY
To Confess Your Sins 
AND
Repent!

Repent Of Your Evil Ways
AND
Your Wayward Acts
AND
Permit God To Remake You
And Give You The King's Righteous Garments
And Proceed To Walk
And Continue Walking ...
Faithfully!

AND ... 

Please, Please, PLEASE
 Do Not Permit Yourself 
To Fall Into Satan's Trap Of
"Once Saved Always Saved! "

God's Word Specifically Says:

The Definition Of Endurance Involves:

Effort,  Pain,  Suffering
Faith, Faithfulness
Belief, Focus
Trust In The Training Received From The Trainer,  and 
Doing and Completing The Job 
Despite The Challenges
Real or Imagined!

Trust God's Word!
Live For Jesus Christ!
Be Comforted In His Care!
Let The Holy Spirit Lead!
Receive The Protection Of The Holy Angels!
Be Faithful Unto Mortal Death!
AND
When Jesus Christ The King Shall From His Glorious Home Descend
Be Raised 
Immortal 
Unto Eternal Glory!

Choose The God Of This World

AND

Lose Eternity

OR

Choose The Eternal God 

AND 

Save Your Own Soul

AND

Gain Eternity!
