VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Indulgence And Expectation Are Strange Bedfellows!

KJV Romans 11:33

33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

It's Amazing! 

We Indulge In Our Putrid Pleasures And 

Then Have The Expectation That 

The Prince Of Peace Will Quickly, Instantly

Relieve Us Of The Predicted Pain Of Prophesied Punishment! 

How!?! 

Why!?! 

Indulgence And Expectation Are Very Strange Bedfellows! 

We Unleash Indulgence With The Expectation Of Joy, Pleasure

But 

If You Noticed

We Have Not Appended The Necessary Adjective

The Vital Descriptive Of Warning 

Which Should Be Screaming At Us Free-Will, Free-Choice, Big Spenders! 

Dear Ones, 

Remember This! 

Just Because You Are Free To Do Anything

It Does Not Mean That You Should Choose To Unleash Indulgence! 

Have You No Knowledge Of "Act In Haste ... Of Wanton Desire

And 

Repent At Leisure ... With Sorrowing, Painful Regret!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Warned! 

Doing What You Want Means 

Paying What You Can't Afford ... After A Little While! 

The Length, The Duration, Of The Little While 

Is

Ever In The Lord's Hands

His Timing

His Will

His Way 

And

There Is No Created Being That Can Tell Him "No!" 

Brethren, 

One Thing Is Certain! 

If What We Choose To Indulge Is Under The Lord's Prohibition

His "Thou Shalt Not!" 

We Can All Rest Assured That 

We Will Undoubtedly Suffer The Prophesied Curse Of 

Guaranteed Punishment! 

Conversely, The Lord's "Do As I Have Commanded You!" 

Results In His Prophesied Blessings At Home And Abroad

Of Peace In Him 

And 

Rest With Him! 

I Encourage Us All To Rabidly Reject 

Damned Satan's "Do What Thou Wilt 

Aka Do What Pleases You!" 

And

Joyfully Accept The Lord's Easy Yolk And Light Burden 

Which Lead To Heavenly Joys ... Forevermore! 

We Can't Beat God's Giving 

So Choose To Enjoy The Lord 

And 

His Ways Always And In All Ways! 

Peace!

REJOICE: We Are Because Jesus Christ Is!

Beloved, 

We Are Free To Say Our Prayers To Our Father In Heaven

In The Name Of Jesus Christ Our Lord

Reminding Him Of What He Has Said That 

He Will Do For Us ... Individually! 

We Rejoice 

Because 

The Lord Is King! 

We Have Hope 

Because 

The Lord Is Our Savior! 

We Are Comforted 

Because 

The Lord By His Holy Spirit

Is 

Our Teacher And Comforter! 

We Believe The Word Of God To Us 

Because 

His Word Is The Truth Immovable! 

Dear Ones, 

The Word Of God To Us 

Is 

Love Which Gives Life

And 

Our Free-Will Word To The Lord

Using His Word Which Is Also A Lamp Unto Our Feet 

And 

A Light Unto Our Path Should Be 

"Yes, Lord!

So Let It Be!"

Dear Ones, 

Fables Abound 

But

The Stories Of Our Lord Jesus Christ 

Will Never, Should Never, Be Listed Among Them 

Because

Without Jesus Christ The Lord Of Life

There Is No Life Of Man! 

We Are Because He Is! 

Let Us Give Thanks And Praise Unto Our God 

For His Goodness Toward The Children Of Men! 

We Are Truly Blessed! 

Let Us Rejoice 

And 

Live Like We Really Believe The Word! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Are You Living A 3-D Life!?!

 

Is The Sense, The Spirit, Of Entitlement 

Causing You To Live A 3-D Life!?! 

Is Your Life Such That 

There Is Disrespect Because Of Dishonesty 

Which Is Leading, Or Has Led, To Disappointment In A Relationship!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Careful! 

Entitlement Is To A Christian 

What Faith Is To A Humanist: 

It Does Not Belong

Doesn't Work

And 

Doesn't Profit Aka Doesn't Bless! 

We Cannot Disappoint 

The All-Seeing, All-Knowing, Ever-Present God Of Grace 

Who Inhabits Glory 

But

We Can And Do Disappoint Our Fellow-Man 

Whom We Are Called To Love As We Love Ourselves 

By The Holy God Whom We Say That We Joyfully Serve! 

Dear Ones, 

Any Indulged Behavior That 

The Lord Jesus Cannot, Will Not, Bless 

Is 

Dishonest 

And

By Extension 

Is 

Disrespectful! 

Dishonesty Disrespects 

And

Disrespect Disappoints! 

In The Household Of Faith

We Have Free-Will, Choice, And Chance! 

Let Us Be Wise 

And 

Choose To Do Right Always 

Because 

It Is Good And Right 

And 

Our Lord Commands It! 

Let Us Live As Though We Truly Love 

And 

Serve And Worship The Living God 

And 

Not The Thing That Causes Jealousy Aka Idols

Even Our Own Self! 

Be Humble

Be Gracious

And 

Be Blessed! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Your Choices Matter To The Maker, Our Master!

Life Is Beautiful! 

Life Is Also Short, Dynamic

Worth Living

And 

Is An Eternal And Truly Bountiful Blessing 

To All Who Humbly Choose To Let Our Creator, The Life-Giver

Steadfastly Lead Them To Everlasting Life 

In The Land Of Love And Glory! 

Beloved, 

We Will Undoubtedly Make Mistakes 

Because 

We Are Flesh

Born In Sin 

And 

Shapened, Carved, Constructed, Built Up

By Iniquity Aka Planned Sin! 

Dear Ones, 

Let No One Fool You: 

We Have Free Will 

And 

The Freedom To Choose How To Behave 

And 

How To Live

Who And Where To Worship

And 

Where We Will Spend Eternity! 

The Choices!?! 

Let The Lord Jesus Christ

- The King, The Judge ... Our Savior -

Correct You 

Or

Let Satan The Damned

- The Adversary Of Your Soul ... And Your Savior -

Wreck You! 

Nobody May Make This Decision For You! 

Please Choose Wisely! 

Pray! 

Petition

And

Pursue Peace! 

Peace! 

Listen To The Lord Of Life!

 

Our Lord Christ Invites Us To Come To Him 

And 

Participate In A Reasoning Conversation! 

Satan, The Master Of Distraction

Tries To Insinuate Himself Between Us And Our Life-Giver And Savior 

By Saying That The Conversation Is A Con 

Because 

The Lord Jesus Is Trying To Make Converts To Himself 

By Bypassing Our Free-Will And Our Freedom To Choose How To Live 

And 

When And Where To Die! 

Are You Hearing

Truly Listening  ... And Understanding 

What Is Really Happening Here!?! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ Is Our Creator-God 

And 

He Has No Need Or Desire To Make Us Do Anything: 

There Is No Force In Love! 

Dear Ones, 

Satan, The Adversary Of Our Souls

The Roaring Lion

The Piercing Serpent

Is 

The Scorched-Earth "Builder" 

Aka The Destroyer

The Bait And Switch Con Artist Who Is The Father Of Lies 

Who Will Say Anything 

To Get Anyone To Have A "Productive" Conversation With Him 

In The Hope That It Will Convert Someone 

To His Wicked, Evil, Destructive Way

And 

Take Them Away From The Lord Christ

Almighty God In The Flesh! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Reject Interactions With Glib-Tongued Found-Friend Strangers 

Who Can Show You Newer, Brighter, Shinier, Better 

Minus Truth, Light, Love, Grace, Peace, Goodness

And 

Access To The Heavenly Home 

And

Everlasting Life! 

Love The Lord Jesus Christ

And

Lose All Links To The Liar! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray ...!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, Kind And True

I Choose To Take You At Your Holy Word Because

It Needs No Reminders About Follow-Up And Follow Through! 

You Are The Living God, Holy, Faithful, Loving

The Ever Blessing God Who Is Not A Liar! 

I Give You Thanks And Praise! 

Lord, I Have Made Up My Mind That

I Want, Need, Desire, And Must Have All

Every Last Gift, Benefit, And Blessing That

You Have Promised Me In The Word Of Truth 

And

Through The Innocent Blood Spilt Because Of Me

And

For Me

On That Dark And Dread Day On Mount Calvary! 

Father, Without You, I Am Nothing

And

Can't Do Anything!

With You As My Guardian, My Guide

The One Who Causes Me To Live

And

Breathe And Just Be

And

By Your Gift To Me Of Free-Will

And

Freedom To Choose What I Want To Be And Do

I, This Day, Choose To Be What You Said That I Can Be

Which Is To Be Like My Blessed Savior

Jesus Christ The Lord! 

I Choose To Go Where You Send Me 

And

To Do What You Ask Me To Do! 

Lord, Please Help Me Not To Be Presumptuous

By Overstepping The Boundaries You Have Clearly Defined! 

Please Help Me, By Saving Grace

To Stay Under The Banner Of Prince Immanuel

And

Inside Of Your Hedge Of Protection That Is

Your Ten Commandments

The Keeping Of Which Is

The Key To A Happy And Peace-Filled Life!

I Need You, Father

And

I Am Neither Ashamed Nor Afraid To Pray That

I Will Come To Need You More And More Each And Every Day!

I Love You And I Come In Faith In Jesus' Holy Name:

Please Bless Me In My Need And Indeed!

AMEN! 

Don't Become An Unprofitable Servant!

Brethren, 

I Don't Know About You

But 

I Have No Desire To Hear The Lord Call Me An Unprofitable Servant 

So I Am Determined ... By Almighty God's Saving Grace

Not To Anymore Indulge In Any Habit, Practice, Pursuit 

Which Will Not Glean For Me Some Type Of Eternal Profit! 

Think About It! 

Lying, Cheating, Stealing, Gossiping

Backbiting, Gainsaying, Doubting

Defiance, Whoremongering, Idolatry

Disobedience

And 

Distrusting The Lord Christ Will Not Give Me Any Profit 

Aka Interest To Give To Our Lord Christ 

Who Entrusted Me To Handle His Property 

When He Returned To Our Father's House Of Love 

After The Most Expensive Shopping Trip 

Aka Rescue Mission In History! 

Dear Ones, 

As In All Things, We Have Free-Will And Freedom To Choose! 

We May Decide To Do Nothing 

And 

Consort With The Careless Who Don't See Anything Profitable 

In Emulating Jesus Christ Our Savior

The Hope Of Every Man! 

We May Also Choose To Use The Lord's Property

His Talents

His Gifts Given To Us 

In A Manner Sure To Get Gain For Our Master

- Which Also Means Ourselves - 

Which Will Gain For Us The 

"Well Done, Good And Faithful Servant! 

Enter Into The Joy Of Your Lord!" 

I Sincerely  Beseech Us All

Dare And Do Good! 

Choose To Live Right! 

Determine To Humbly Serve The Lord 

And

Gratefully Bless Almighty God! 

May The Holy Spirit Of Truth 

Continue To Guide Us On The Holy Way! 

Peace!

Strobe Lights In The Darkness!

In The Field Called Earth

There Are Two Camps, Namely

Camp Sin Run By The Adversary Of Souls, Satan The Damned

And

Camp Salvation Run By The Savior Of Souls

Jesus Christ The King

The Hope Of Every Man! 

Everybody Entering The Field Called Earth

Is 

Born Into Camp Sin And Is By Nature Known To Be 

And

Is Called A Sinner! 

Nobody Has To Stay A Sinner 

Because 

With Birth Came Free-Will And Freedom To Choose 

And 

The Right To Decamp Camp Sin 

And 

Encamp With Camp Salvation 

Through The Gift Of Faith

Which Blesses One With The Unforced Opportunity 

To Became A Saint Of God And Christ 

As All In Camp Salvation Are Called! 

Beloved, 

Remember The Garden Of Eden! 

There Is An Undercover Lover Who ... Hates You! 

In Camp Sin

Everything Is On The Down-Low 

While Appearing To Be On The Up 'n Up High! 

Everything In Camp Salvation 

Is 

In The Open, On Display

And 

Available To Be Known 

Because 

It Is For Your Salvation! 

The Way Of Camp Sin 

Is 

Subterfuge Aka Deceit

Smoke And Mirrors

Strobe Lights In Darkness

And 

The Diet That Double-Destroys! 

The Way Of Camp Salvation 

Is 

Truth And Right-Doing

Light, Beauty

Clean Water And Untainted Air

Teaching That Feeds

Feeding That Heals

And 

Healing That Leads To Sealing! 

Neither Camp May Force Enlistment 

But 

Each Camp May Enlist Camp-Changers! 

Dear Ones, 

Satan Is Your Enemy: 

Choose You This Day Whom You Will Serve: 

Jesus Christ Knows Your Name And Your Frame! 

Peace! 

Let Us Not Be High-Minded, Hard-Mout' Goats!

We Need To Do Better! 

Consider That 

The Lord Jesus Did Not Use Goat Parts 

To Create Man! 

The Lord Took The Dust Of The Earth 

Which He, Himself, Created 

And 

Formed Man 

And

He, Himself, Blew The Breath Of Life From Himself 

Into Adam's Nostrils 

And 

Caused Him To Be ... Able! 

We Need To Know Our Value 

Through The Eyes Of Almighty God 

And 

Stop Living Like Incendiary Devices 

Always Ready, Willing, And Able To Explode 

And 

Do Damage To Whomever, Whenever

With Or Without Provocation Or Perks! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Is Our Shepherd 

And 

We Are The Sheep Of His Pasture: 

He Leads Us! 

If For Some Unknown Reason ... Or Just Because

You Decide That You Are Better Than Your Creator 

Who Has Life And Death Control Over Your Existence

Consider This: 

You, By Your Own Will

And Exercising Your God-Given Choice

Have Decided That You Are A Goat ... Your Own Leader

And 

He Who Owns You Will Have To Follow Where You Lead! 

Satan Loves This Attitude 

And

 Is Glad To Follow You

Encouraging You To Go To 

The Spiritually-Dead And Eternally-Done End 

To End Existence! 

Jesus Christ Doesn't Make Mistakes: 

We Are To Go To Him To Correct Our Mistakes! 

Let Us Not Be High-Minded, Hard-Mout' Goats 

But 

Be Gentle, Humble, Sheep 

Who Faithfully Follow The Shepherd 

Who Will Restore Our Souls! 

Look To Jesus Christ The Lord 

And 

Be Saved! 

Peace! 

Do Not At Smooth-Talking Snakes Quake!

The Bible Is A Superb Book That Transports Us Through Time

And

From Time Into Eternity 

Where We May Reside With The God Gracious

Loving, Holy, Divine! 

We Are Each Given The Gift Of Faith With Which To Believe 

So That We Do Not Depend Upon Ourselves 

To Find Acceptance Of Living Truth: 

Almighty God's Gracious Blessings Are For Us Daily To Receive! 

Beloved, 

Your Birth-Right Gives To You Free-Will 

And 

Freedom To Choose The Good And Right

To Walk In Holy Light

And 

To Be To Our Creator-Savior

A Grand And Glorious Delight! 

As Men, We Are Known Weaklings! 

As Christians, We Are Made Strong In The Lord 

And 

Are To Operate In The Power Of His Might 

And So

I Encourage Us All, Brethren

Do Not At Smooth-Talking Snakes

Roaring Lions

And 

Winged Dragons Quake! 

Let Jesus Christ Take Your Wheel 

Because 

His Love For You Is All-Encompassing Real

Not All-Consuming Fake! 

Let The Holy Angels Work Beside You: 

Do Good! 

Let The Holy Spirit Work Inside You: 

Accept Good! 

Let The Holy God's Judgment Be For You 

As He Has Already Done A Complete Work To Save You! 

Cooperate With Jesus Christ 

And By Appointment

On The Hallelujah Day

To Surpassing Glory Rise! 

Spit On Satan's Lies! 

Be Alive In Christ! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Bad Choices ... Bad Results!

Bad Choices Equal Bad Results! 

Righteousness 

Is 

Like The Peacefully Cooing Dove 

And

Self-Righteousness 

Is 

Like The Splendidly-Showy Strutting, Screaming Peacock! 

Each Is A Chosen Way Of Life! 

Beloved, 

The Fact Of "Choice" States Clearly That 

You, Me, We Allowed Ourselves To Indulge Thought 

Which Speaks To Our Detailed Analysis Of 

The Pros And The Cons Of A Proposed Action! 

With This In Mind

It Is Clear That Whatever Decision We Thoughtfully Make

Whatever We Choose To Do

The Outcome, Good Or Bad

Cheap Or Expensive 

Or

Life Or Death

Is 

All On Our Own Head! 

Remember Your Creator-Given

Free-Will And Free Choice!

If We Take This Further

We Will Understand That "Choice" 

Is 

Why Not One Of Us 

Will Be Able To Stand Before The Judge Of All Flesh

The Savior Of Every Man

And Say

"I Didn't Know Right From Wrong!" 

Or 

"The Devil, My Brother, Sister, Neighbor

Mother, Father, Friend, Enemy

Made Me Do 'It!'" 

That Boat Ain't Gonna Float! 

We Are Called To Be Wise For Our Own Selves 

So Let Us Understand That 

We Have One Chance To Make The Right Choice 

To Avoid The "Why Me!?!" Consequence Of 

Departing From The Path Of Purity, Truth ... Righteousness! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Let Us Dare Today 

To Do The Deeds To Plant The Seeds Of The Fruit That 

We Really Desire To Eat! 

Choose To Do Right 

And 

Walk Right In Living Light! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + There Are Consequences To Conduct!

Every Human Has A Path To Travel: 

Blessed Is The Man Who Does Not Walk According To The Counsels

The Directions

The Ways Of The Ungodly! 

Beloved, 

With Free-Will 

And 

Freedom To Choose As Our Walking Stick

We Each Have The Ability 

To Either Walk On Strait Street And Narrow Way 

Or 

On Broad Street And Own Way! 

Decisions, Decisions! 

Man ... By Himself

Is

In The Valley Of Decision! 

Will You Follow The Savior 

Carrying Your Own Cross All The Way To Calvary 

Or 

Will You Choose Achan's I Want It 

Samson's It Pleases My Eye

King Saul's The People Made Me Do It

Ananias And Sapphira's Nobody Will Know

Or 

Judas Iscariot's I Can Manipulate God 

Or I'll Sell The Savior For Silver!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Who Helps You To Buy A Big-Belly Horse 

Won't Help You To Feed It! 

You Can Hide And Buy Land

But 

You Can't Hide And Reap It! 

Wha' Sweeten Goat Mout' Does Bu'n 'e En 'e Tail! 

Bottom Line ... 

There Are Consequences To Conduct!

In The Day Of Trial

Only Those Who Have Chosen The Way To Calvary

The Life In And Of Christ

Shall Receive The "Well Done!" 

And 

The Crown Of Life! 

Please Choose To Learn From The Mistakes Of Others 

So That You Don't Suffer Their Same End! 

Choose To Endure Your Tribulations Now 

And 

You Will Enjoy Your Celebrations Later

In The Presence Of King Jesus

Him For Whom We Are Now Waiting! 

Dare To Make Jesus Christ First And Last

And 

Have Heaven In Your Life Now: 

Walk In The Light! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + God-Conscious: The Word Of The Lord Stands Forever!

One Of The Wonderful Things About 

Being Under The Benevolent Control Of The Holy God 

Is That 

We Have Options! 

We Have The Free-Will 

To Exercise Our Freedom To Choose 

To Utilize Any And All Options 

Then On The Loaded Table Of Life! 

What A Buffet! 

If You Are A Committed Christian

You Will, With Wisdom Say:

Lord God Almighty, 

I Love You 

And 

Choose To Let You Rule My Life 

According To Your Living Word

The Unerring Truth! 

Please Help Me 

Not To Indulge In The See-Food Diet 

And 

Give In To Guts Over Glory! 

Beloved, 

We Are Nearing Home! 

We Need To Get Back To Basics! 

We Need To Get Back To Being God-Conscious 

And 

Reject Being Self-Conscious 

Which Is Where Sin

Via Lucifer's Elevation Aka Consciousness Of His Self 

Entered The Universe

And 

Subsequently Despoiled Our Fore-Parents 

And 

Our Earthly Home! 

In One Text Of Scripture

We Are Cautioned

Warned

Encouraged

And 

Blessed 

And

We Need To Take Heed 

To The Preservation Of Our Own Souls 

Because 

All Else Will Pass Away Into Oblivion: 

The Word Of Our God Will Stand Forever! 

Self 

Is 

A Notorious Sinner!

Jesus Christ ... The Word Of God

Is 

Lord, God, And King Forever: 

Do Not Crucify Him Again 

By Bringing His Name To An Open Shame 

By Exploring Bad Options! 

The Word Of Almighty God Works 

And 

Is Always On Duty: 

Hookups Are Encouraged! 

The Lord's Truth 

Is 

Our Belt, Sword, And Shield: 

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation! 

Peace!
