Lil' Bits Grow A Lot!

A Little Fault

A Little Sin

A Little Lie

A Little Error

A Little Hate

A Little Presumption: Reject This Tidy Terror!

A Little Love

A Little Light

A Little Truth

A Little Grace

A Little Faith

A Little Mercy: Take A Grateful Taste!

It's A Treasure! 

A Lot Of Problems In The Human Life

Stand On The Shoulders Of A Little Presumption

Because

Instead Of Taking Thought To Do And To Live Right

To Seek The Good Lord For Foresight

To Gain Insight

And

The Loving Savior To Delight

We Run And Board The Big Bus 
To The City Dump Called Assumption!

To Assume Makes A Fool Of You

And

A Bare-Back Donkey Out Of Me

With Neither Of Us Arriving At The Correct Destination!

We List To Port

And

We List To Starboard

And

We Never Make Land At Known-Safe Harbor!

Calvary Is A Fact ...

Mercy Is The Gift Most Free

The Blessing Of The Living God

To All Possessing The Human Body!

Mercy, For Us, Was Purchased At Great Expense

And

All Who Are Wise Unto Salvation

Grab Hold Hard Of The Container

The Lord ... The Christ

Who For Our Redemption

Was Bruised, Punctured

Despised, Discarded, Forsaken

But

In Glorious Triumph ... Denying Death

From Our Appointed Grave

He Did Massively Awaken! 

No Need To Assume:

Mercy For All Is Available

And Free!

A Little Mercy Makes The Way To Life Plain! 

A Little Mercy Relieves The Profane Of Their Shame! 

A Little Mercy To Us

From The Lord Who Gives Life

Acts As Our Catalyst

Giving Us The Best And Blessed Reason 

To Seek Jesus Christ's Eternal Life! 

Don't Get It Twisted ...

Presumption Knows Not Mercy

And

Mercy Has No Part In Presumption! 

Presumption Is A Gateway ... Drug

And
Presumption Itself Is Sin

And

Presumption Leads To The Pandora's Velvet-Lined Box

Where The Lot Of Little Sins

Are Comfortably Residing ... Abiding!

It Is Time That In The Lord Christ

You Sincerely Start Confiding!

Know The Facts ...

Little Things With Life Always Grow

And

Always Take One Of Two Directional Channels:

Send Down Roots

Grow Up Into A Lush Tree

And

Bear Abundant Good Fruit! 

Good Fruit Trees Get Pruned!

Or

Send Down Roots

Grow Up Into A Lush Tree

And

Bear Inedible Fruit! 

Bad Fruit Trees Get Purged!

Know The Right ...

The Tree Watered With Mercy 

Bears The Harvest Of Good Fruit

Fit For The Barns Of The Good King! 

The Tree Watered With Presumption

Bears The Harvest Of Inedible Fruit

And

The Tree Is Cut Down

And 
Made Into Wood For Burning

And

Cast Into The Hot Ovens Of The King! 

A Little Goes A Long Way! 

Is Your Little Something-Something

Leading You Tame To Salvation

Or Leading You Wildly To Damnation!?! 

Is Your Little Bit Good!?!

Is Your Little Bit Bad!?!

Is Your Little Bit A Treasure

Or Something From Which

To Save Your Life

You Must, With Prejudice, Be Severed!?! 

The Way To Eternal Life 
Just Requires One Little Step

One Constant Little Step

One Repeated Little Step

One Faithful Little Step

One Obedient Little Step

One Little Step ... Of Endurance! 

Whoever Endures To The End

Shall Be Saved!

The Master Is Here!

The Master Is Near!

The Master Is Walking With Us, Dear One!
We Should Roundly Cheer!

Let's Be Wise Unto Soul Salvation!
Let's Take A Little Step ... A Little Walk With Our Lord

And

Ascend Hill Zion That Beulah Land

Where There Is Joy, Peace ... No Fear! 

All There, Beloved, Is Bountiful Blessings
And
Loving Accord!
Let's Choose Eternal Life
And
The Great Reward!
Soon Comes The Long-Awaited Day!

HAPPY SABBATH + Dare To Testify Of Almighty God's Amazing Grace!

... But When I Came To Christ Jesus
I Still Held On To Sorrow And Hurt ... Like A Crutch
And
He, Speaking Softly And Tenderly Asked:

I Have Need!

Will You Give That To Me!?!

I Was Stunned, Amazed
Fearful Even
But
I Saw The Love In His Heart In His Eyes
And
Heavenly Light Shone On Me
And
I Recognized That His Love For Me
Made Sin, Self, Sorrow, Pain, Shame, Hurt
Recognizable As The Thing ... The Crutch
That Was Preventing Me
Preventing My Desire For Him From Rising
And
I Said: 

Yes, Lord!

He Said: 

Give It To Me

And

You'll Have Something Much Better

To Replace It!

I Didn't Even Think To Ask 
What It Is That He Is Going To Give Me!
I Just Simply, Forcefully, Said:

Yes, Lord!

You May Have It!

He Smiled At Me So Joyfully
And
I, Relieved Of My Burden
Cried Happily:

I'm Free! I'm Free!

Your Love Lifted Me!

I Feel ... I Know ...  I Am So Happy!

He Said Gently:

Happiness Is To Know Your Savior!

My Heart Said:

Happiness Is ... The Lord!

Having Relieved Myself Of My Burden
By Releasing It To My Lord
I Walk The World A New Person
Disconnected From Satan The God-Fraud
Who Couldn't Make Me Do Anything
But
Who Would By Deft Insinuation
Cause Me To Think In Avenues 
Guaranteed Not To Satisfy
And
To Unconsciously, Unwisely, Cherish Doubt
And
To Walk In Ways That 
Did Not The Lord Of Life Glorify!

Let There Be Praise ...

Those Days Are Done: I Trust The Lord!
I Know The Truth For This Age!
The World's Great Wits Are No More My Sage!
I Look At And Choose To Live In The Good Book!
I Act Upon A "Thus Saith The Lord!"
I Repair To My Master
My Lord And My God
And
Glory Be To The Father
The Son
The Holy Spirit
With Jesus Christ The Righteous  
Nothing Is Impossible
And
With Jesus Christ As King Of My Life
Eternity Is My Time
And 
My Time In Eternity Has No Limit!

What A Wonderful Change Was Wrought
Because
I Stopped Looking In At Self
And
Started Looking Up To The Creator Of
Heaven And Earth
The Seas And The Fountains Of Water
The Visible And The Invisible World
And
Ceased From Walking Wild And Willfully
With The Heading-For-Damnation
Wild Goat Herd!

The Lord Handed Me A Lamp
Which Gives Me Light To Light My Life
To Mark And Make The Way To Truth Plain
To Plainly Speak Righteousness
So That I Do Not Indulge In Things Profane
Profaning His Name
And
Causing Him Unnecessary Pain!
By His Great Grace
I Will Not Crucify Him Again!

I Trust The Lord God Almighty
Just And True
Giving And Forgiving
Blessing And Revealing
Providing And Chiding
Leading And Feeding!
I Am A Blessed Child Of The Eternal King!
I Have A Song Of Praise To Sing To Him!

Believe Me When I Tell You Plain:

Jesus Christ Utterly Saves

So Choose To Be Grateful And Thankful

For Free Mercy

And

Available Grace

That Has No After-Taste!

Only Jesus Christ

Can Cause A Repentant Sinner

To Win In The To-Eternal-Life Race!

Trust Him Implicity

Even If You Can't

His Hand Of Help Trace!

 

 Brethren,

Please Remember, Remember
And
Don't Ever Forget That
There Is Nothing That We Can Do 
That We Can Do Without Jesus Christ The Lord! 

There Is No Place That The Lord Can Bring Us To 
That He Cannot Carry Us Through

And

There Is No Hurt Or Sorrow That He Cannot Heal! 

His Grace Is Sufficient

And 

His Mercies Are Never Stale 

Because 

They Are Ever New 

Fresh From Heaven's "Bakery!" 
Jesus Christ's Love For Us Will Never Fail!

Please Give Thanks To Our God With A Grateful Heart! 

He Loves You: Love Him Fearlessly! 
He Is Our Only Peace!
His Love For Us Will Never Cease!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Great Motivators!

The Conference Is In Session

And

The Great Motivators Themselves Are There:

 Fear Is There For The Clan Of Live Evil

And

Perfect Love Is There For The Clan Of The Good Shepherd

He To Whom His People Are Dear!

You Should Know That That Conference

Is 
Attended For Two Reasons:

One To Rescue
And

One To Destroy 

And

All The Attendees Employ 
The Methods Of Their Respective Leaders

And

Do It For Love And With Joy!

The Clan Of Live Evil

Live To Do Evil

To Be Vile

And

To Cause Unimaginable Pain!

To Instill Fear In Others

Is 
Their Reason For Being

And

Every Day They Swear That

No One That They Put Their Claws Into

Will Be Getting Away!

Vain Words Is What I Call Them

Because

Perfect Love Always Casts Out Fear

Who Dares To Try To Steal Man's Hope

Leaving Him Naked

And

Without Any Way In His Life

With Things To Cope!

Perfect Love

Is
Born Of The Shepherd Of Rest

The Savior Of Man

The Son Of Almighty God Begotten

The Redeemer

Who From Satan's Temptations 

Gave No Quarter

And

In Fear

From Him Did Not Run!

The Good Shepherd

The Savior

The Redeemer 

The Forever Friend

Loves Sacrificially

And

Leaves No Loose Ends

For One To Trip Over

Or To Become Entangled

Or To Become Frayed

Causing One To Be A Castaway!

He, Being Ever Obedient 

Doing What Does His Father Please

Engenders In His People's Heart

The Comfort That Brings To The Human Spirit 

- From The Sweet Spirit Of Truth -

What Gives Ease And Relief, And Release!

By Contrast
Fear Brings Up The Past

Denies The Present
And

Rejects The Future!

Fear Undermines

Redefines
And

Maliciously Crosses Solid Yellow Lines! 

Fear Contradicts

Castigates
And

Thoroughly Humiliates!

Fear Wonders

Worries

Wanders
And

Vindictively Wastes!

Fear Does Not Know How Perfect Loves Tastes

Until The Soul ... Thoroughly Oppressed
And
Expressing Need Of Salvation
Opens Up Their Heart
And

Perfect Love ... Naked

Unashamed

Unafraid

Unerringly Extends That Gentle Hand
Providing Sure Healing

Compliments Of The Son Of God

Compliments The Soon-Returning To Earth

Son Of Man!

Perfect Love Heals Hurts!

He Soothes Sorrows!
He Makes Human Hearts Glad!

He Gives Help For Today 

And

Graciously Provides Hope For Tomorrow!

Perfect Love Gives Energy Like The Shining Sun!

He Gives Calm Like The Glow Of A Harvest Moon!

He Gives Continual Sparks Of Joy Like The Twinkling Star

And

From His Hand Of Help

One Is Never, Ever, Far!

You Hurt!?! 

He Hurts!

You Cry!?!

He Cries!

You Lie!?!

He Doesn't 

Because

His Heart Is Pure

And

Against Every Known, Practiced
Promulgated, Putrid, Sin 
He Is The Cure

And

That Is Why The Clan Of Evil Hates Him!

To Escape Them

He Is The Only Door!

Every Day Is A Conference!

Every Day Provides Another Opportunity Of Escape!

The Clan Of Evil Cares Not For Those Whom They Overcome:

They're More Interested That Prince Shiloh
The Good Shepherd

Should Not Have A Victory!

No! Not One! 
His Presence Relieves Them Of Their Fun!

Brethren,

The Good Shepherd Gives Good Gifts To Men!
The Gifts Are Free
And
On His Strong Arm
We May All With Assurance Depend
So Do Not Be A Merchandising Snob
And
Deny That Anything Gotten For Free Is A Waste
Because
This Is One Freeness That
All Mankind Should Seek To Apprehend
To Take
To Taste!
It Cost Jesus Christ His Blood!

We All Have Personal Choices To Make
And
The Choice Between Perfect Love
And
Fear
Must Be By Self Made!

Fear Will Tie You Up In Gordian Knots
But
The Sword Of Perfect Love
Will Free You
With One Clean And Clear Chop!

Be Wise

Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation

And

Give Satan

And

His Decimating Fear

The Grace Of Almighty God Blot!

I Am Not Alone!

My Life Is No Movie-Handmaid's Tale!
My Life Is A Pilgrim's Journey
Through The Crucible Of Life
In The Valley Of Decision
Between Life And Death
Heaven And Hell
Commendation And Condemnation
Where I Am Intimately
- Unavoidably -
Involved In The Mortal Strife!

I Desire To Unpack 

The Purchased-Especially-For-Me Gift Of 

Christ's Eternal Life!

I Know Without A Doubt ...

The Lord Is My Shepherd!
The Lord Is My Light!
The Lord Is My Hope, My Help

And
My Sure Salvation
And
In Him My Heart Delights!
Heaven Is In My Eyesight!

Because Of Jesus Christ's Love
His Sacrifice
His Mercy
His Grace
His Provision
His Protection
His Correction
His Direction
His Forgiveness
From Sin, I Am Taking The Permanent Vacation!
Clean Before The Lord I Stand!

No Need To Fear ...

The Lord Is The Strength Of My Life
My Rock Of Refuge!

And
My Strong Tower!
I Put My Trust In Him
And
I Receive Daily-Living Power!
I Also Receive The Daily-Blessing Shower
And
Because Of The Gift Of Daily-Faith
I Will Not Before Raging Satan Cower!

 Look At Life ...

As The World Turns
I Could Say With The Never-Right Multitude That
"There Is No God!" But
I Won't ... I Can't:

I Would Be A Truly Depraved Liar
Accompanied By The Siren's Song On The Lyre
AndBe Just Like Satan, The Accuser ... Heart ColdAka Beelzebub The Bold
Headed For Unquenchable Hellfire!
I Have No Desire To Be Consumed!

With Jesus Christ's Faith

I Am Perfumed!

Cross, Crossed Up, Crossed Off ...

As Unremitting Sin Churns
My Longing For The Lord Christ
In Conflagration Burns
And 

It Is To Him That I, Believing
Trusting
Confessing, Repenting
Confidently Turn
For Sure Help
For Certain Comfort
For Right Aid
For Abundant Blessing
For Perfect Peace
For True Rest!
He Will Never My Humble Entreaties Spurn!

I Don't Wear The Cross: I Bear My Cross
And
I Willingly Follow After The Lord Christ!

The Facts Are Plain ...

Like The Moon
My Life Goes Through Phases
And
Because The Lord God Almighty 

Is 

On The Throne
- His Throne -
Just Like The Sun I Shall Keep Rising
Until I Walk And Talk With Him
Face To Face
In Heavenly Places!

I Am Not Alone!

Believe!

Be Free!

Be Blessed!

Living For Jesus Christ

Makes

Living Life

A Real Success -

No Carnal Stress!

SAINTS OF ALMIGHTY GOD AND JESUS CHRIST: One-Weapon Warriors!

Satan Has A Massive Arsenal To Use
Against The Professing Child Of The Holy God
But
Those Who War On The Side Of The Savior
Are One-Weapon Warriors
Against The Known And Raging Enemy Of Souls
The Accuser Of The Brethren
The Sworn And Venomous Enemy Of Jesus Christ Our Savior
 And
Soon Returning King And Lord!

What Is Most Exciting Is That 

The One-Weapon Warrior's Weapon
Can
Shall
Will ... When Properly Utilized
Put The Fear Of Almighty God
In The Black Heart Of Jesus Christ's Known Rabid Enemy!

You See
What Our Adversary Fails To Acknowledge
Accept And Appreciate
Is That Our Weapon Comes Of Love
Includes Love
Prayer
Faith
Blessing
Peace Rest Hope
Help Healing
Direction
Correction
Forgiveness
Salvation
The Opportunity To Confess And Repent Of Known Sin
The Comfort And Correction Of The Holy Spirit
The Protection And Always Good Influence Of The Holy Angels
And
The Imperishable Blessing That Is
Our Lord, God, King
Savior, Redeemer, Friend
Jesus Christ The Righteous
Who For Us His Children Faithful
Eternal Homes Is Preparing!

Put Simply ...

Satan 

Is

Functioning Under Unrelieved
Unrelievable Stress
Whilst The Lord Christ

Is 

Operating Always Eternally To Bless!

The One Offensive Weapon
In The Hand Of The Faithful Saint
Is 

The Two-Edged Sword Of Truth
That Is The Same Whether The Wielder
Is Man, Woman, Child
Elderly Or Raw-Boned Youth!

The Two-Edged Sword Of Truth

Will Withstand Any Adversary
Uphold Every Act Of Righteousness
Shelter Every Saint Of Almighty God And Christ

And
Everyone To Whom Jesus Is Friend!

The Two-Edged Sword Of Truth

Does Not Have Spots!The Two-Edged Sword Of TruthDoes Not Hold Stripes!The Two-Edged Sword Of TruthIs 

As The Solid Rock Of Ages
Which No Charlatan Can Ever Put To Flight!

Truth Be Told ...

Truth May Be Cast Down In The Street
But
Truth Can Never Be Destroyed
And
This Attribute Is What The Devil Despises
And
Is Why Satan Hates So Rabidly
Our Savior, Creator
Jesus Christ The Lord
The True And Ever-Living Holy God!

Heads-Up, Saints ...

See To It That You Wield Your Sword Deliberately!
Satan Cannot Make You
That Cutting Sword Sheath!
Make All Your Cuts With Force 

And
Working Faith
And
You Shall Never Be Called A Living Disgrace!

Let No One Steal Your Joy!
Love Truth!

It's Pure!
It Contains No Alloy! 

And 

Remember That
All Satan's Devices Employed Against

Enduringly-Faithful-To-Christ You 

Are Completely Useless Ploys!

Raise Up Your Banner:

Truth Is A Shield!

Choose Jesus Christ The King

For

 Eternal Joy!!!

ICY, I SEE: Doubt ... And Faith ...And Disobedience

If I Hear The Word Of Truth
And
I Doubt The Word Of Truth
Does That Mean That
The Word Of Truth Is A Lie!?!

If I Know That The Lord Christ Is Real
And
I Choose To Doubt That He Is Real
Does That Mean That
The Lord Christ Is A Falsity!?!

A Fantasy!?! 
If I Am Made Of The Clan Human
But
I Choose To Walk Like A Duck
Talk Like A Duck
Dump As A Duck
Does That Make Me A Duck
Or Does It Brand Me A Human Quack!?!

Shaking My Head ...

I Have A Real Problem
With People Who Call Green, Black
Just Because They View The Green
In The Darkness
Refusing To Look At It
In The True And Bright Light
Which Offers Real Insight
Sufficient Even The Veriest Jade To Delight!

What Do You See ...

Men Are Using "Magic" Mirrors
So That What Looks Back At Them
Is Not 

The Same Person
As The One Who Is Doing The Looking!

Gotta Do De Math ...

If We Extrapolate That
And
Think Of The Lord Of Life
Who Repeatedly Tells, Asks, Pleads
With Us To Live By Faith
And
Not To Live By Lying Eyesight
We Will Do Well
And
Prosper
Instead Of Hurting Self And Others
By Depending Upon That
Which Leads To The Hell-Bound Offer!

Faith ... I Can't See Now
But
I Choose To Believe The Word That 
I Will See ... Later!

Doubt ... I Can't See What I Can't See
Because I Can't See
And 
I Choose To Disbelieve The Word
That I Could See If I Choose To Have Faith
And Believe That I Will See ... In Time!
A Mouthful
But
Not Way-To-Eternal-Life Goals!

Faith Is Not About Being Brave!
Faith Is All About Obedience!

Doubt Is Not About Disbelief!
Doubt Is About Disobedience!

Belief Is A Choice!

Disbelief Is A Choice!

Disbelief Makes Satan Glad! 

Belief Makes Heaven Rejoice! 

"I Can't See!" She Said, Blindly. 

"I Don't Have A Care!" She Said

While Carrying The Heavy Load

Ignoring The Fact That

Belief Takes Away Worry

And

Disbelief Causes One To Treat Liberally 
With Debilitating Fear!

At Her Gross Folly

Satan, Triumphing

Does Jeer! 

Ask De Hard T'ings ...

Are We Regulation Fools

Disguised Idiots

Masquerading As Saints!?! 

Or

Are We Salt Of The Earth

Light Of Life

Blessed To Be Blessings

Hearing The Word Of The Living God

And

Faithfully Believing

- And Doing -

Without Fear Or Failing

Not Caviling!?!

We Are Not Promised Easy Living! 

Whether We Have Dollars Or Cents

Pounds Or Pence

We All Need Sense To Scent

The Stench On The Winds Of Change! 

Ignorance Is Not Bliss!

Foolishness Is Not Sense!

Having Guts Is No Guarantee Of Glory

But

Praise Be To Jesus

Good News Is The Present Truth 

Gospel Story! 

Bow And Burn Both Begin With "B"

But

Only One Leads The Believer

To Eternal Life!
