For What Are You Longing!?!

What Is Good For You Allegedly Tastes Bad

And

Is Costly! 

What Is Bad For You Tastes Good

Is 

Ever On Tap, Cheap

And 

Is Always The Latest Must-Have! 

Beloved, 

For What Are You Longing!?! 

Is It Some Tasty Treat Beloved By Evil-Doers 

And 

Is Free To All Or Sold In Multiples For Cheap!?! 

Are You Telling Yourself 

"No, I Don't Want It!" 

But 

Find Yourself Imbibing The Fun Size 

Or Nursing The Big Gulp 

Or Pushing A Whole Pallet 

Because 

It Is A Once In A Life-Time 

Never To Be Repeated 

Members Only 

I'll Die If I Don't Grab It Now Must-Have That 

Is 

On A Buy Two Get Three Free With Coupon Give-Away!?! 

Sin Infinitely Costs You Personally! 

The Way Out ...

Our Purchased Salvation 

Infinitely Cost Our Lord Jesus Personally 

And 

Is Free To Us Eternally! 

The Problem Is That

We Must Willingly Give Up 

The Dime-A-Dozen Cheap Treats Of The World That 

Our Corrupted Taste-Buds Love To Explore! 

Out With The Old ...

To Hold The Once In A Life-Time 

One To A Person Free To All Never On Sale Salvation

We Must Willingly Have Our Palates Cleansed

Our Ears Unstopped

Our Eyes Healed

And 

Our Hearts Made Flesh! 

Will You Take The Cure-For-All 

By Forsaking All Bad Things ... For Sure!?! 

With Our Willingness To Have Life In Christ

And

By The Unfailing Grace And Free Mercy Of Almighty God

And

The Regenerating Power Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth

The End Result 

Is 

The Life Pure On The No-Sunset Shore! 

By Christ, You Are Adored: 

Please Answer His Call! 

Peace!

Our Stomachs Are Bigger

Than Our Eyes:

Not Everything That Is Edible

Is Worth Eating

Or

Worth The Final Price! 

GIFT OF LOVE: Salvation Is FR2E To Me And Thee!

There's The Old Song Which Says: 

"If Salvation Was A Thing That Money Could Buy

The Rich Would Live And The Poor Would Die!" 

There's No Need To Think On This! 

Most Of Us Love Sales 

Especially Those Of The BOGO 

Aka Buy One Get One Free Variety: 

We Enjoy Acquiring Good Stuff At Great Prices! 

Still Others Of Us Love Thrifting

Rummage Sales, Garage, And Car Boot Sales! 

The Point Is That 

This Poor Man Wants A Rock-Bottom Price For His Heart's Desire 

And

If You Are Of The Monied Class

You Desire That Which No One Else Can Afford! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ's Gift To Us Of His Salvation 

Came At Infinite Cost 

And

Is Available To Each One Of Us Individually

Rich Or Poor

FR2E!

The Father Gave Us His Son

And

The Son Gave His Life To Save Us!

There Is A Spanner In The Works ...

The Big Able Problem, Though

Is 

That Today Is The Day Of Salvation 

And 

Many Of Us Are Of The Mind That Says

"Free To Me Is Cheap 

And Cheap Things Are Not Good 

And I Won't Accept 

What I Can't Physically See And Profit From!" 

The Lord's Ways

Are Not Our Ways

And

The Lord's Thoughts

Are Not Our Thoughts!

Oh, That We Would Spit Pride And Doubt 

Into The Fires Of Hell Where They Belong 

And

Accept The Priceless Gift 

Freely Given To All By Our Creator

The King Of Love And Glory! 

Pride And Doubt Build A Sinking Ship! 

Please, I Beseech Us All 

Do Not Permit The Monied Vanity Class 

To Stay Your Needy Hand From 

Accepting The Unspeakable Gift From 

The Loving Heart Of The Son Of God

The Savior Of Every Man! 

Salvation Has An "Accept By" Date: 

Be Wise For Your Self! 

Peace! 

Buying

The Free-To-All Gifts

Generously, Graciously, Given

By The Eternal, Holy, Faithful God

Is

An Impossibility!

No Stuff Can Enter The City Of Almighty God!

It is With A Sincere Heart That 

I Pray That Each One Of Us 

Comes To Truly Realize How Special

- How Unique - 

We Are To The Living God! 

There Is No One Else On This Earth

 Who Is As You Are! 

The Gifts That The Lord Has For You, Personally

He Will Not Give To Another Soul 

Even If You Were To Deny Him 

And 

Reject His Gifts Of Love! 

If You Choose To Refuse To Accept 

Jesus Christ's Gift To You Of His Free Salvation 

And 

By So Doing Never Reach The Eternal City

Your Absence Will Be Keenly Felt 

Because 

No One Else Can Take Your Place! 

Lot's Wife ... Against Warning ... And Common-Sense

Looked Back Both In Her Heart And Physically

And 

Lost The Things She Lusted For 

And 

Her Precious Life And Promised Future: 

Jesus Christ Will Be Her Judge

And Not 

Her Welcoming King

Because 

Her Stuff Was Worth More To Her Than Her Life! 

Beloved, 

Always Remember That

You Need A Life To Live To Be Able To Get Stuff 

But

Having A Boatload Of Stuff 

Will Never Get You Eternal Life! 

Jesus Christ Desires Your Personal Presence 

In His Holy House 

And 

He Sacrificed Himself To Make That Possible! 

Please Do Not Neglect So Great A Salvation: 

There Is No Escaping The Day Of Judgment! 

Please Choose Eternal Life 

And 

Live Now As One Greatly Loved 

And 

Abundantly Blessed By Our Almighty God! 

Choose To Remember That Your Father 

Is 

The King Of Love 

And 

Never, Ever, Forget That

You ... Individually ... Are In His Heart 

And 

Your Name Is Permanently

Perfectly Engraved 

In Our Dear Savior's Hand! 

Please Pursue Peace With The Lord Most High!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Sin Is Like A Plague Rat!

Sin Is Like A Plague Rat! 

Everything That Sin Touches

It Infects And Ultimately Kills: 

You Don't Want Sin In Your Cellar, Your Attic

Aka Your Heart, Your Head

Nor At Your Fingertips Or Your Footsteps! 

Sin Is Like Activated Yeast: 

It Grows To Fill The Available Space:

You Only Need A Little Sin In Your Life 

To Make It Noisy, Dirty, Objectionable Aka Damnable! 

Sin Is Like Rain 

Which Wets Aka Touches And Marks Whomever 

Wherever Whenever It Falls Upon Them! 

Sin Is Like Darkness 

Which Will Only Depart 

When The Sun/Son Light Appears! 

Sin Is Like A Raging Fire 

Which Can Only Be Doused 

By Depriving It Of Air Aka Life! 

Beloved, 

The Only Way To Kill Sin In Your Life 

Is 

To Indulge In Love For The Lord Christ 

By Being Perfectly Obedient To His Commandments 

Which Are An Hedge Of Unbreachable Protection 

Around His People

Aka The Purchased Possession Of The Living God! 

Sin Sticks, Stains, Leaks 

And 

Secretes Sin! 

Sinning 

Is 

Natural, "Easy,"  Requiring No Effort

Because

We Are All Born In Sin

And

Shaped In Iniquity Aka Planned Sin!

Being Obedient ... The Perfect Form Of Worship

Is 

An Act Of The Will

Aka The Exercise Of Your Free Choice 

To Accept And Follow Jesus Christ's Free Salvation

And 

To Live Right According To The Lord's Will! 

Willing Sinners Obey Satan The Damned

The Accuser Of The Brethren

The Piercing Serpent

The Father Of Lies

The Lord Of Dung

The Murderer Most Foul! 

Repentant Sinners Obey Jesus Christ

The Lord Of Life

The King Of Love

The Lover Of Our Souls

The Savior Of Us All!

 

Who Are You ... Now!?! 

How Are You Going To Be Found

When The Lord Christ Shall Come In His Great Glory!?! 

Dare To Seek Out The Answers!

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: What Are You Doing!?!

Consider That We Are Not Condemned For What We Have Done 

But For What ... Being Necessary

We Have Free-Will-Chosen Not To Do! 

Walking In Darkness

Is

A Choice! 

Consider That We Are Not Condemned For Loving Lies 

But For Willfully Choosing To Hate The Truth! 

Beloved, 

Would You Really Want To Be Known As Someone 

Who Tenderly Loves Satan 

And 

Truly Hates The Lord Christ 

Who Created, Maintains, Sustains, Saves 

And

Redeems You From Sin, Death, The Grave And Hell!?! 

Is Indulging Your Costly Pet Sin 

Worth More To You Than Your Own Soul's Free Salvation!?! 

Is Holding On To Your Dark, Bitter, Hurtful, Yesterdays 

Worth More To You 

Than Having Almighty God's Promised Sweet Eternity Of Peace!?! 

Are You Refusing To Hold Love 

Because 

You Are Embracing Hatred!?! 

Are You Feeling Sorry For Yourself 

Instead Of Being Happy That 

Jesus Christ The Kind King Knows Your Name 

And 

Fills Your Needs!?! 

Think! 

You Can't Change Yesterday By Hating Today 

But 

You Can Influence Your Hoped-For Tomorrow 

By What You Do Today! 

The Sacred Gift Of Present Time 

Is-

Made For Change 

So Please Let Jesus Christ 

- By The Holy Spirit Of Truth -

Make All Your Wrong Things Right

By Your Willingness To Be Fed

To Be Taught

To Be Corrected

And

To Be Protected From Self, Sin And Satan! 

Let Go Of Sinful Self

And

Self-Serving Self-Satisfaction

And 

Let Almighty God Good, Gracious, Giving 

And 

Forgiving

Rid You Of What Will Not ... What Cannot

Profit You On The Great Judgment Day! 

Where There Is Life, There Is Hope!

I Commend You To The Living Holy Faithful God Of Grace!

Walk In The Light

Which Leads To Eternal Life!

Don't Be Free Food For Satan!

 

When The Angel Of The Lord Sets Up Shop In Our Vicinity

We Can Rest Assured That 

Deliverance Will Be The Outcome For Us 

Who Fear Aka Hold The Almighty God In Awe: 

We Reverence His Majesty And His Power! 

Conversely, It Is Safe To Say That 

Those Persons Who Do Not Fear The Living God

Are Subject To The Malevolence Of Satan And His Fallen Angels 

Who Are Determined To Accomplish Their Destruction! 

Beloved, 

The Angels Of The Living God 

Are Here To Minister To Us 

Who Shall Be The Inheritors Of Christ's Free Salvation! 

Those Who Choose To Walk Under Their Own Banner

Doing Everything That Carnal Flesh Desires 

Are Free Food For Satan

The Roaring, Always-Hungry, Lion 

Looking For Someone Easy To Devour! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

You Forfeit The Protection Of Holy Angels 

When You Walk In Willful Disobedience To  

"Thus Saith The Lord" 

By Going Where You Shouldn't 

And 

Doing What You Ought Not To Do! 

The Holy Fear Of The Lord In Our Hearts 

Is 

Our Sure Safeguard Against Indulging 

In Presumptuous Aka Planned Sin Aka Iniquity! 

Doing Wrong When You Know To Do Right 

Is 

Lawlessness 

And

Lawlessness Is Sin 

And 

The Wages Of Sin Is Death! 

Be Wise: 

Walk Enduringly Faithfully 

And 

In The Will Of The Lord Of Life 

Who Constantly Blesses Us With Awesome Goodness! 

Dare To Fear Almighty God 

And 

Choose To Be Eternally Blessed!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH : THE SON: The Sum Of The Matter, Re Re! + PRAYER: Please Reclothe Me In My Rightful Mind, Father!

Rejecter Of God's Love
Refuser Of God's Grace
Reconsider Your Situation
Repent Of Your Sin
And
Rejoice At Your Salvation
And 
For Your Reformation
Be Thankful!
Be Glad!

No One Needs Be Lonely!
No One Needs Be Lost!
No One Wanders
No One Wonders
When Upon Jesus Christ 
- The Soon-Coming King -
Their Earthly Lot Is Cast!

"Don't Worry!" Is The Word Of God!
"Be Strong In The Lord!" Is The Word, Too!
Taking Jesus Christ On Board  

Is 

The Sum Of The Matter
And
Having And Using This Holy Power

Will Cause Satan, Sin, And Self
From Your Vicinity Will Scatter!

Consider The Lillies How They Grow!
Consider The Creation
And
Their Willing Show
Of The Majesty Of The Holy God
Of His Creative Prowess
Of His Sustaining Hand Each Day
Dear Sinner Sought ... Saved And Protected
And
Utter A Humble Prayer
To Be Eternally Blessed!

PRAYER:

Dear Lord And Father Of Mankind

Rid Me Of My Foolish Ways! 

Reclothe Me In My Rightful Mind

To Serve You

To Have My Heart To You Ever Inclined

To Render Unto You My Heartfelt Praise!

I'm A Child Of The Dust

I Hold In Me The Breath Of Life

I Have And Need The Love Of God

And In This Vein, Father

I Give Unto My Love

My Trust!

I Cannot Save My Self Nor My Brother

Nor Any Other! 

I Am Your Child, Lord! 

For My God, I Have No Other

Save The Lord Of Life

The King Of Glory

The Prince Of Peace

About Whom

Is

The Good News Gospel Story

Which Story Is True

Is Truth For Today 

The Story That Rails Against Sin

Calling All To Christ's Free Salvation

So That For Own-Sin 

We Shall Not Have To Pay!

Thank You, Lord 

For Light

For Life

For Love

For Laughter

For The Forgiveness That Cleanses Of Sin

And

Does Not Apply Cheap Plaster

To Mask The Look

But Does Not Heal

That Holds On The Medicine 

But Does Not Seal

The Soul From Wanting To Sin

And

Lets In The Air Of Error

That Leads On, Still, To Sorrow

And

Exposing Me To Damnation, The Horror!

Lord, 

Lift Me Up

Help Me To Stand

Help Me To Walk

By Holding Your Strong Arm

Believing, Receiving

Trusting You My Heart To Bless

So That I May Become

A True Child Of The Kingdom

A Known And Rewarded

Spiritual Success!

I Give You All The Glory, Father!

Please Receive Thou Me

And

By Christ In Me Living

Cause Satan, Sin And Self From My Vicinity

In Defeat To Flee!

Please Grant Unto Me These Few Petitions
According To Your Sovereign Will
In Your Blessed Time
And
In Your Holy Way

For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

In My Gift Of Daily Faith

And

For His Praise

That I Importunately Plea!

I Love You, Lord! 

Please Come Soon! 

AMEN!

HAPPY SABBATH: When Doubt Meets Faith!?!

Well, Sister
I Am Very Sorry To Hear You Say That!
Personally, I Have Temporary Problems
Because
Praise The Living God For Present Grace
And
Soon To Come Glory
I Have The Almighty God Holy And True
In The Person Of The Lord Jesus Christ Who Is Also God Eternal

Who Bought Me And Paid The Infinite Price

To Assure Me Of Peace And Rest

Forgiveness Salvation

Daily Grace

Daily Faith

And

Always Free Mercy!

As Long As I Can See My Jesus

I Can Be At Peace

Because

I Know That That Immense Gift

- The Holy Spirit Of Truth -

Will Comfort Me In Difficulties

Guide Me On Right Paths

Chide Me When I Am Not Walking Right

And

My Being Willing

Get Me Safely Home

To The Mansions Of Heavenly Rest

In Beulah Land

The Eternal Home Of The Enduring-All-Things

Through-The-Faith-Of-Jesus Believers Blessed! 

I Can't Beat Almighty's God Giving!
I Can't Beat Back Almighty God's Blessings
And
I Won't Send Back Almighty God's Love For Me
Because
I Intend To Bask In His Love For All Eternity!

But, Wait
Lemme Ask You Something:
How Come We Go To The Same Church
Sit Under The Same Pastor
Read From The Holy Bible
And Have Such Different Outcomes!?!

It Seems To Me That 
You Know Some Things That I Don't Know!?! 

Are You A Hearer Or A Doer
Or A Hearer And A Doer Of The Living Word!?!

I Didn't Know There Was A Difference!

Are You A Believer Who Indulges Sinful Doubt
Or
A Sinner Who Chooses

- Despite The World's Enunciated Promulgated Doubts - 
To Be A Humble Faithful Willing Believer!?!

Oh, Dear! Ohhhhh, Dear!

Do You Live By Faith
Or
Do You, Like The Deceitful World
Choose To, Against All The Evidence To The Contrary
Live By Lying Eye-Sight!?!

Oh, Lord! Ohhhhh, Lord!

Do You Believe A Dying Man's Word
Or
Do You Believe The Living God-Man Who Is The Word!?!

Dear, Lord And Father Of My Kind!!!
Forgive Me My Foolish Ways!
I've Always Trusted My Eyes, My Ears, My Deceitful Heart
And I Am Listing In The Sea Of Sin
And Can't Seem To Find The Way The Ocean Of Doubt To Get Out!
Please Hear Me And Please Help Me!
This Is My Contrite Heart's Pray!

Sister,

Please Have Faith: It's Free!

Savor The Living Word: Choose To Believe! 

If You Are Seeking To Have Every Doubt Set Aside

Rest Assured

You Will Find Many More Reasons To Doubt The Living God

Walking Boldly By Your Side

Staring You Insolently In Your Face

Opening Your Front Door

Fighting You For A Seat In Your Best Comfy Chair

Taking You Favorite Dinner Right Out Of Your Hand

Sprawling Out On Your Sweet-Smelling Bed

Nailed Down On Your Porcelain Princess ...!

But, Wait!?!

How Come You So Nosy Getting All Up In My Life So!?!

Girl, I Lived Your Life!

The Difference Between Conflict And Courage Is Having

A Nice Comfortable Tasty Slice Of Jesus Christ's Daily-Faith Cake

Or

Engorging Your Sinful Self On A 12-Inch Round Pan Of 
Sight-Of-The-Eyes Doubter's Delight Cake

Which

- Surprise, Surprise -

Has No Known End ...! 

... I Know That For A Fact!

There's Always One, One, One. Slice. More!

The Word Says:

Have Faith... !!!

(Don't Look Back)! 

Trust God ...!!!

(Walk In Faith)! 

Believe ... And Live ... With God!!!

(Hold On To The High And Holy Hand

Extended Lovingly Toward You!) 

Hon, 

The God We Believe In

Will Never, Ever, Grab Your Hand

Tune Your Ears

Set Your Feet

Nor Fix Your Eyes

Until

You Grab Hold Of His Already Extended-To-You Hand
And

Turn Your Ears

Point Your Feet

And

Lift Up Your Eyes To Him! 

Almighty God

- Through Jesus Christ Our Savior Lord And King -

Has Made The First And The Last(ING) Move!

Our Task

Should We CHOOSE To Accept It

Is 
To Hear The Word And Choose To Believe It

Believe The Word Of God And Walk In Faith

Accept The Blessing Of Daily Receipts Of Faith

And

Faithfully Look To AKA Depend Upon OUR Jesus

The Author And Finisher Of OUR Faith

Who Has Made The Way Clear For Us!

Think Of Water ... Which Finds Its Own Level

And

Think Of Terra Firma Rock ... Moved And Or Marked By The Water's Action! 

Let's Call Jesus, The Water ... Of Life!

Let's Call You, Sister, Terra Firma Rock

Able To Be Impacted By The Water Of Life!

Life Of Sin Is A River Bed Where You Reside! 

Water Of Life Touches Terra Firm Rock Constantly!

You Have, By God-Given Right

Choices Chances

Free Will And Free Way!

You Are Self-Aware!

You Are, Also, By Nature Of Sin, Selfish! 

You Can Let The Water Of Life Permeate Your Hard Shell

And

Make A Mark

Mark You Out

Cut You Away

Move You Onward And Upward

From Sin Draw You, Not Push You, Away

OR

You Can Be Impacted By The Water Of Life

Hear Where It Will Lead

See What It Can

Enjoy The Present Perks Of Daily Interaction

But

Stubbornly Remain Unmoved! 

What About If I Didn't Make A Decision!?! 

Sweetie, Let Me Tell You What My King James Tell's Me:

If You're Not Planting With Jesus Christ

You Are Against Him! 

Now Now, Now Is The Of Salvation! 

Tomorrow Is Promised To No Man, Woman Or Child ... Look Around You! 

Faith Is The Victory That Overcomes The World!

Nothing, Absolutely Nothing, Can Separate Us From Jesus!

Jesus Christ Loves Me, Personally, Sacrificially! 

Jesus Died To Save Us All

But

He Can Only Save One Person Aka

The One Person Who CHOOSES To Believe That 
Jesus Christ Saves!

Jesus Christ Only Saves Individuals!

He Can't Save A Family

A Country

A City

A Town

A Church

A Congregation

But

He Will Save The Individuals In Those Settings

Who Individually Set Aside Self Sin Doubt

And

Choose Jesus Christ's Love
His Freely-Available Gift Of Daily Faith 
And
His Free-To-All Salvation! 

You Make It Sound So Easy! 

It Is! 

If It Is So, Why Is There Plaguing Doubt!?!

Do You Remember 
The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil!?!

Yes, I Do!

Do You Also Remember The Tree Of Life!?! 

I Sure Do!

Do You Remember Jesus Christ's Charge To Adam And Eve!?! 

Stay Away From The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil 

Or You Will Die!

What I Don't Understand Is
If They Had The Tree Of Life

Why Did He Have To Put The Tree Of
The Knowledge Of Good And Evil There As Well!?! 

It Was For A Test Of Faith! 

Don't Forget That There Had Already Been 
A Rebellion In Heaven 
And 
It Was Necessary For This New Creature

- Made A Little Lower Than The Angels -

To Prove His Allegiance!

The Same Is True For Today! 

The Difference Is The Trees Are Called 
Faith And Doubt!

Adam And Eve Were Never Meant To Have 
The Knowledge Of Evil!

The Tree Of Life Gives Unto Us

Every Good And Perfect Gift

Which Comes Down From The Father Of Lights 

In Whom Is No Variableness

Neither Shadow Of Turning ...! 

... I Just Remembered That He Said:

I Am The Lord: I Change Not!

The Lord: The Same Yesterday, Today And Forever ...!

... Call On Me AND ...! 

... I Will Show You Great And Glorious Things

Which Thou Knowest Not! 

I Am The Lord: Is There Anything Too Hard For Me!?! 

The Lord Is My Shepherd: I Shall Not Want! 

The Lord Is Our Refuge And Strength: 
A Very Present Help In Times Of Trouble! 

... But Thou, Oh, Lord, Art A Shield For Me: 
My Glory And The Lifter Up Of My Head! 

Whom Seekest Thou!?!

Jesus Christ The Righteous Lord

The Holy God:

My Creator

My God 

My King 

My Salvation 

My Redeemer

My Only Savior

My True Friend!?! 

What Doest Thou!?! 

As For Me And My House

We Will Serve The Lord! 

What Your Doubt!?! 

It Is No Longer My Doubt! 

Doubt - Like Satan - Is Damned!

I Have Made My Choice! 

I'll No Longer Be A Wave Of The Sea

Driven And Tossed By Every Storm Wind!

My Soul Is Anchored In The Lord

And I Stand Against Satan The Fraud! 

I'm Now Truly Aware Of His Devices 

And I'm Giving To The Lord

My Self

My Will

My Way

My Choices

I've Invested In Him All My Chances! 

Jesus Christ IS Now Totally Responsible For Me

Because From Here On In

I've Divested My Soul Of

Lying Doubts' Destructive Debilitating

Good-For-Nothing Coming! 

I've Learnt Something Today!

It Pays To Converse With The True People Of The Book! 

Give The Lord His Glory! 

He IS The Book! 

What In Earth Do You Mean!?! 

The Preserved Word Of Our King James Bible

Is

The Transcript Of The Eternal Holy God's Character! 

If You Take Away From The Good Book

You Minimize Almighty God And Curse Your Self!

If You Add To The Good Book

You Elevate What Has No Elevator 

And You Are Found To Be A Liar

And You Curse Yourself

And You Lose All Your Blessings!

Father, 

In The Name Of The Beloved Jesus

Have Mercy, Please, On All Of Us!

AMEN!!!

I'm Glad We Had This Time To Talk! 

If You Want To Talk Some More

Come And Have Dinner At My House! 

Will Our Jesus Be There!?!

In Spirit, My Dear! In Spirit!

Where Two Or Three Or Gathered Together In My Name!?! 

Indeed! 

Let's Go!
