VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Which Words!?!

KJV Psalms 39:1
1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

Words Have Consequences 
For The Rich And For The Poor
For The Knocker At The Front Gate 
And 
The Opener Of The Inside Door!

People, Don't Blink! 
Think! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Achan's Confession Of His Delight In The Babylonish Garment 
And 
For Silver And Gold 
Led To His Excommunication 
And 
Stoning To Death And Burning On The Desert Floor! 

General Moses' Misspoken Words By Anger
Asking The People If He And Aaron Were To Give Them Water 
Instead Of Glorifying The Faithful Holy God
Led To Them Being Excluded From Entering The Promised Land! 

Think Also Of Nabal 
Who Rejected David's Request For Sustenance By Asking 
Who Is David
The Very One Whose Guardianship Of His Flocks 
Guaranteed Nabal's Prosperity
Shows Us The Subsequent Deadly Cost Of 
Misplaced Aggression
Arrogance
And 
Knowing Base Ingratitude! 

Dear Ones, 

I Bid Us All To Speak Quietly 
And 
Tread Softly In The Presence Of The Lord! 

In Sewing, We Are Instructed To Measure Twice 
Before Cutting The Fabric Once! 

The Lord Tells Us That We Who Love The Tongue 
Shall Eat The Fruit Thereof 
So Be Very Careful What You Say 
Because 
Both Wise And Unwise Words Are A Heavy Weight! 

Judas Iscariot Asked Of The Jewish Leaders: 
"How Much Will You Give Me!?!" 
To Betray Our Lord Jesus! 

Jesus Christ Said To His Father: 
"Not My Will, But Thy Will Be Done!" 

Will Your Words To Our Blessed Jesus Be: 
"Lord, I Willingly Follow Thee No Matter The Cost!" 
Even Though You Understand That 
The World Will Savage You!?! 

Weigh What To Speak On The Way To Speak! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Big Question's Big Question!

Big Question Is No Man's Enemy!
Big Question Is No Man's Friend!
Big Question Poses Big Questions
Needing Honest Answers
And
He Stumps More Than A Few Big Women And Men!

Big Question Poses The Big Question Of The Day
And
He Always Promises A Big Question
For Tomorrow
    Which Is Today
         Which Was Yesterday!

Today
Big Question's Big Question
Is
For All The Professing Christians
Who Gladly Walk About ... Out And Proud 
Proclaiming To The World That Their God Holy Provides
That Jesus Christ Saves To The Uttermost
That Living Truth Prevails By The Holy Ghost
While Bitterly Crying On Their Not-Full Pockets
Looking Long In Their Capped Teeth
And
Feeling Put Upon By Honest Investigation
And
Unashamedly Giving An Unwholesome Image About
The Great God Of All Graces
     Their Jehovah Jireh 
           Who Always, Always, Always, Blesses And Provides!

They Were So, So, So, Very Very ...!

Said Big Question
In A Voice ... If Possible
To Wake The Very Dead:

If
My Brethren
You Do Not Trust The Lord
... In Faith ...
To Provide You With
Your Daily Bread
... A Known Need ...
Why Are You
 Trusting Him
To Provide You
With Soul Salvation!?!


Big Question's Big Question For The Day ... Today
Is 
The Same Question 
He Asked The Proud Christians Yesterday
When He Promised 
A Big Question For Tomorrow 
Which Is Today ... That Has Seamlessly Arrived!

Splutter! Splutter!

Cough! Cough!

Wuhloss!!

Pat-Pat's Son, Frazee, Said Loudly:

Big Question, My Brotha! 
That Question Is Boss! 
Now Toss Out The Answer! 
You Have Made These Here Pillars Quite Cross! 

Said Big Question :

'Tis Better To Be Made Cross Here
And 
Do Some Soul Searching
Than To Have Your Name
Crossed-Out Over There
In Glorious Heaven Most Fair
And


At The Appointed Time
End Up In The Lake
Burning With Brimstone And Fire
And
Doing Some Can't-Be-Undone Burning
Just Like The Loathsome Liar!

They Need To Stop
With The Deceitful Un-Christian Posing!
They Need To Truly Come To Know
The Righteous God
Whom They Say That
They Are Whole-Heartedly Serving! 

Trusting The Lord Christ
Is
Proposition All Or None!
Jesus Christ's Christianity
Is
No Game Show For Prizes
Nor
A Circus For Clown-Made Fun!


Many Were Offended Even Righteously Indignant!
Some Were Ashamed And Changed Their Base Pigment!
Some Were Cut To The Quick
And
Sought In Their Hearts, For Forgiveness, To Pray
And
Then There Were Those Quite Bold
Who For The Living God Had No Godly Fear!
They Wittingly, Unwisely, Started To Jest And Jeer!

All Told, My Friend
I Tell You Plain
That As The Living Word Of God Says
There Will Be Willing, Saved And Blessed Remnant
Upon Earth Among Men
Who, By Their Living, Will Not The Lord Offend!

Taking Heed To The Call ...

By Introspection
By Inspection
By Reflection
By Holy Spirit, Sin-Detection
Those Who Will To Be Saved
Took Up A Sin Collection
And
Upon The Altar Of Sacrifice, It Was Humbly Laid!


Talk Is Cheap!

The Sacrifice Of Christ Was Infinitely Dear!
It Cost The Savior His Life's Blood
While Those For Whom He Died
Reviled Him In A Demon-Driven Flood!

Let Us Not Be Like The Heaven-Daring Heathen
Nor The Gainsaying Doubters Round About!
The Lord Of Life 
Is 
In The Saving Business ... Now
So Think Carefully As You Sin ... Now
Thinking That Maybe, Later, You Will Sacrifice A Cow!
Tomorrow Is Promised To No Man Born Of A Woman!

The Truth ...

Big Question 
Is 
Not Here To Please Your Flesh
Nor Even To Satisfy Your Morbid Curiosity!
Big Question 
Is 
Here To Help Us To See Ourselves
Through The Eyes Of The Living God

Whom We Say That We Praise And Glorify
And
By Big Question Asking His Big Question
He Seeks To Help Us 
By Our Honest Answers And Cleaned-Up Living
By Our Obedient Compliance To The Lord's Commands
The Holy God To Wisely Glorify!


Think On This Thing ...





 
In Bible Times ... Before Jesus Christ Died
Whilst Giving An Expensive Gift Of An Ox Or Bullock 
Was Acceptable
Obedience Was Always Preferred Over Sacrifice!


Take Careful Note:
Praise And Worship
Are Always
Most Pleasing To Almighty God!
The Act Of Obedience
Is
Worship!
To Trust Almighty God
Is
To Give Him Praise! 

Let Us Be Wise 
And 
Give Almighty God The Gift Of A Humble Heart For Christ 
Totally Dedicated 
And 
Completely Committed 
To His High And Holy Cause! 

Let Us Place Our Known Sin 
Our Present Deceitful Mode Of Half-Hearted
Convenient-To-Sinful-Self Worship
On The Altar Of Sacrifice 
And 
Choose To Willingly, Wisely
Gratefully, Thankfully
Praise And Worship Him ... Our Holy God
For His Moment-By-Moment Goodness
Grace, Love 
And 
Mercy Toward Us! 

Let Us Make A Joyful Noise 
And
Utter A Holy Hallelujah Unto Him 
And 
Bless His Great Name Always
Because
He Is Our God Holy
And
We, By Holy Faith, Love Him
Whole-Heartedly! 
He Is Worthy To Be Humble Worshipped And Praised!
