VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Dollar Bill Owned Man And Land!?!

Dollar Bill Owned People
And
Dollar Bill Owned All The Land
And
Often You'd See Him
With A Man Or Two In Either Hand
And
If He Was Feeling Truly Irate
Or 
Had Had A Successful Late-Night Date
You Might Find A Man Or Two
On His Always Too-Full Breakfast Plate!

Dollar Bill
- For A Dollar Bill Or Two -
Will Cheerfully Sell A Mother
A Grandmother
A Sister Or Brother
And
A Homeless Father
Got No Discount In His Moment Of Disaster
For Dollar Loves His Bills
And
If A Lil' Fish Stole One
Dollar Wouldn't Hesitate
To Cut Out His Gills
For
In His Eyesight Wrong Is Ever Right
And
That Is How That Dollar Bill
Gets His Jollies And Cheap Thrills!

For Them
His Belly Is Never Filled!

Can You Feel The "But" Coming On?! 

But ... 

Dollar Bill Has An Adversary

- A Man He Cannot Stand -

Whose Name Is Entire Dependence

Who Leans Wholly

On The High And Holy Hand! 

Entire Dependence

Is

Completely Consecrated

To The Cause Of The Lord Jesus Christ

And

He Does Not

- Even For A Single Minute -

Contemplate Using The Demonic Device 
Be It

Greed And Gain

One-Upmanship

Rob A Brother

Or

Throwing Around The Word Profane!

Entire Dependence
Believes The Holy Word In Its Entirety

And

He Has Jesus Christ The Righteous

As His Surety

And

His Security

And 

He Does Not Practice Lies!

The Heat Was On ... 

Dollar Bill Tried Everything

To Get Entire Dependence 

To His Warped Way Of Thinking

To Come Around! 

He Offered Him Silver And Gold
And

Even A One-Off Minted Gold Crown

But

Entire Dependence

Had Taken For His Example

The Life That Jesus Christ Had Led

And

For Victory Over Sin

In Every Battle For The Mind

Through Heartfelt Prayer

He Was ... By The Holy Spirit Of Truth

Good Food Fed!

He Walked With God ...

Entire Dependence Would Not

Could Not
And
Refused To

Walk By Himself!

Entire Dependence Leaned
Leans On

And

Walks With ... King Jesus
The Joy Of Every Soul! 

Turning The Screws ...

Dollar Bill Set Traps! 

Trips! 

Tests!

Dollar Bill Told Bold Lies!

Dollar Bill Designed Gross Cheats
And
For A Dose Of Overkill
Dollar Bill Ordered Up Sensory Overloading 
Aka Brain-Busting 
Mind-Blowing
Tempting-To-Touch Treats!

Almighty God Is Strength ...

All The Evils Things 
Were Thrown At Entire Dependence

But

By Kneeling 
Bowing 
Bending 
And
Prostrating Himself Before Almighty God
And
Clinging To The Words Of Truth And Life

In The War Against Dollar Bill And Sin

Entire Dependence Kept Walking 

On Sure And Steady Feet!

Listen To Him
Before The Lord Of Life, Weep ... 

Bless The Lord, Oh, My Soul! 

Trust The Lord And You Will Live! 

Almighty God Is Gracious

Blessing Giving

And

His Faithful Children Who Depend On Him

Shall With Him In Peace

Enjoy Eternal Living!

Lord,

To You, Alone

My Soul, I Am Giving! 

**--**--**--**--**

I Am Thine, Oh, Lord! 

Draw Me Nearer! 

Lead Me Gently, Safely, Home! 

Suffer Me Never

To Walk Through This Life Alone!

Jesus Christ

For My Sin

Did Atone!

**--**--**--**--**

I Need You, Lord! 

I Need You Now! 

Remove From My Presence, Lord

Rutting Sin

Behaving Like A Wild Range Sow!

I Know No Other Master!

I Sing A Glad Refrain!

I Trust You, Lord!

You Are My God!

Take From My Soul

Sin's Stain And Shame!

**--**--**--**--**

Have Thine Own Way, Lord!

Bless Me

To Walk The Straight And Narrow Way! 

I Desire To Enter Into Thy Holy Presence

So

Cleanse Me Of The Vile Urge To Sin

So That In The Glad Day

- By Right -

I Shall Through The Gates Of The Eternal City

With Gladness

Walk In!

Lord, I Desire The Purchased Win!

It Is In Christ Jesus

That

Daily I Am Trusting And Believing!

Never Give Up On Jesus ...

Dollar Valiantly Tried And Failed

And

Bill, Cursing, Died

And

Was Fabulously Displayed
- Nobody Cried -

But

Ever And Always To His God
- The Living Holy Redeeming Faithful True Eternal God -

Entire Dependence

- To This Day - 

Continually Faithfully
Hope-Filled
Enduringly Relies!

Is There A Moral To All This?!

There Is A Moral ... 

Dollar Bills Come!
And 

Dollar Bills Go

And

Property Passes On To Another 

But

Entire Dependence ... On The Living God 

Causes A Regenerated Christian

With The Lord Christ

To Live Happily ... And Forever!

Living In Sin

And

Causing Others To Sin

Does Not Make

Either

A Rich Man

A Poor Man

A Beggar Man

Nor

A Wily Thief

Wise Or Clever!

Trust In Christ Jesus

And

Do All Things

According To His Will

And

Live Righteously Now

And

In The Fullness Of Time

Triumphantly

And

Forever! 

CHRISTIAN: Name Or Performance + PRAYER: Father, You Know Each Heart ...!

I'm A Christian!
He's A Christian!
We Are All Christians!

Name Or Character!?!
Leaves Or Fruit!?!

Pardon Me!?!

Simple Enough Question!
Are You A Christian In Name Only
Or A Christian By Performance?!

Who Are You To Judge Me!?!

Oh, Boy!
Things Are About To Get Hot Up In Here!!

You Know You're Right!

Ms. Nioka, Since When Is A Question Asked, A Judgment?!
If You Are A Christian In Name Only
You Will Want To Change Unless
Living A Lie Is Good Enough For You!

Nioka, You Are Married To William, Right?!

Yes, Of Course!

Do You Believe That He Will Be Pleased With You
If A Child He Thinks Is His
Actually Belongs To Grantley, Here!?!

That Will Never Happen!

Let's Just Say It Did!
What Will William Say?!
What Will William Do?!

Somehow, I Refuse To Think About That!

Not "Thinking" About It 
Won't Change The Outcome!
You Dishonored Your Vows!
You Shamed Your Husband
AND
Insult To Injury
You Brought Home Proof
Proof Of Wild Fruit
AND
You Disgraced The Good Name
AND
You Basely Denied That The Living God 
Is Your Sovereign Lord!

Baby Girl, You Ain't Straight
And You'd Be A Traitor!

I Don't Like The Sound Of That!
Traitors Get Executed!

Yes, And So Do Christians Called
Who
- At The Judgment -
Are Found Wearing Clothing
Not Issued By The Lord Christ!

Oh, Dear!

Sooo, The Question Remains ...

Are We, You, Me, Christians
By Name Or By Nature!?!
Will Jesus Christ Approve Our Fruit?!
Will Jesus Christ Be Happy To See Us
Or
Will He Cast Us Off
As Lost To The Flock ... Wild Goats
Who Masqueraded As Fluffy Obedient Sheep?!

Oh, Dear!

We All Have Skeletons In Our Closets!
We All Need To Do A Spring-Time Spring-Clean!
We All Need To Trust The Words Of The Father
AND
We All Need To Do Right
If
We Will Before The Living God's Throne
With Loving Favor
Be Seen!

I Know That I Am Base Sinner!
Sometimes I Act Like A Holy Saint
And
I Know That I Need To Come Clean Before The Master
So That He May Clean Me Of Sin's Taint!

You May Fool Man
ButYou Can't Fool Almighty God!

You Are Playing With Fire, My Friend!

We Have A True Friend
In The Person Of Christ Jesus
And
If You Let Him In And Let Him
He Will Your Wild Wayward Waffling Heart Mend!

Be Ye Warned ...

Don't Run With The Goats
And 
Sing Sheep Songs!
Don't Run With The Sheep
And 
Bleat Like A Wily Wild Goat!

You Must Choose
And
The Choice Is Yours
And
Yours Only
But
Know This
Which Ever Flock You Run With
It Has Its Own Hope Of Reward!

I Challenge You ...

If 
Almighty God Is The Lord
Humbly Serve Him!
If 
Satan Is Your Savior
I'm Sorry To Hear
For
I Can't Wish You Good Luck With That!
I Offer You My Condolences!

Jesus Christ The Righteous ... Saves!
Beelzebub The Bold ... Enslaves
And
Only Jesus
- Lowly Jesus -
Can Prepare For You
In Heaven
A Beautiful Place!
Please Seek After Jesus Christ By Faith!

Brethren Beloved,

Please Don't Believe 
The Vacuous Words Of The Devil
That Good Or Bad
Kind Or Evil
Heaven Is The Home Of All Men!
This Lie Will See You Facing Sure Damnation!
This Lie Will See Your Soul Lost
When Mortal Life Shall ... At Last 
Forever, Forever, End!
On This Truth, You Can Depend!

Heaven Awaits The Faithful!
Heaven Is The Home Of The Redeemed!
Heaven Is Where Almighty God's Throne Is
And, There
Nothing Resides That Is Unclean!

Out Of Abject Darkness
And 
Into Marvellous Light
Is 
The Word Of Our Heavenly Father!
Do Not Cast Away Your Confidence
For Rotting Burnable Recompense!
The Eternal God's Gifts
Are As He Is ... Eternal
And
All Who Accept The Gifts
And
Do Faithfully His Bidding
Will Live With Him In Peaceful Bliss ... Eternally!
This Not A Cause For Debate Nor Suspense!

PRAYER:

Father,

You Know The Heart Of Every Man

Woman And Child!

You Are Our Creator, Sustainer, Provider
And

In You, We Have Daily Life!

Please, I Beseech You

Come Into Our Hearts!

We Have Unlocked The Door

And

We Desire 

In You

By You

For You

To Live And To Do

That Which Is Holy, Right!

Forgive Us This Day Our Trespasses!

Lord,

There Are Many And Close!

We Repent Of The Past

And

We Need Your Help

To Stay In The Hopeful Class

And

We Ask You, Please

Our Sins Into The Sea of Your Forgetfulness

To Cast!

Lead Us Day By Day!

Walk With Us!

Show Us How To Live The Holy Way
And

Bless Us To Ever Do Your Will!

You Are God!

You Are Lord!

You Are Our Help From Ages Past

And

We Bow Before You

For

We Desire To Enter Heaven

After

The Last Trumpet's Loud Blast!

Please Hear Our Prayer

Uttered From Unfeigned Lips

And

Bless Us

For We Ask These Few Mercies

In The Matchless Name Of

Jesus Christ The Righteous!

We Love You, Lord!
Come Soon!

AMEN!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Recreants?! + PRAYER: Save Us, Lord, Through The Strife!

Russ?!
What's A $10.00 Word For Coward?!

APOSTATE.

Thank You Very Much!
Can You Add $15.00 To It
And Give Me A $25.00 Special?!

RECREANT!

Actually ...

That's A Really Good Word
For Christians Who Are ... Not!

Oh, Dear!

How Can You Say That?!

I Can Because It's True!

I'm Listening!

What Does RECREANT Sound Like To You?!

It's Sounds Almost Like RECREATE!

Soooo, What Happens
When You Recreate Something?!

You Change It
From What It Is ... To Something Else!

Soooo, What Happens
When Jesus Christ
- By The Indwelling Holy Spirit -
Changes Us To Become Like Him?!

What Was Old Is New ... A New Creation!

And What Happens
When The Once-Old Now-New
Turns Aside To Fables
Because Of Situational Occurrences
Popular Sentiment
AND
Self ... Satisfaction
Aka Personal Gain?!

Do You Mean Like

By Deserting The Post That

Leads To Certain Eternal Glory
For Momentary Aka Fleeting Gain?!

Yes! Like Selling Gold To Buy Silver!

Ain't That Kinda Foolish
Bordering On Judas-Level Treachery?!

Almighty God Has Not Given Unto Us
The Spirit Of Fear

But Of A Sound Mind!

So That Surely Begs The Question Of

Who Is More Powerful:
My God Eternal Who Is Truth
Or Your Lying Dying Satan?!

Since You Put It Like That ...

Obviously
The God Eternal!

Let Me Put It Another Way!
Who Is Stronger: The Creature Or His Creator?!

I'm Certain It Is The Creator!

So Why Are Christians Celebrating Fables
AND
Following The Weak
When They Can Lean On Jesus
Endure A Little Pain
For ... The Small Season
- Even If They Die -
Since Jesus Promised
To Raise His People Up
So That They, With Him
Shall
Back To Eternity
Fly?!

So, What's The Answer!?!

No Offense, But

"They" Say That

A Promise Is A Comfort For A Fool  ...!

Then I'm A Fool ... For Christ

AND ...!

... They Lack Faith!

They Are Cowards
Walking With The Great Apostate
Who Comes To Kill And Destroy
By Having The Creation
It's Own Creator
Defy! Defy!

AND
Boldly Deny!

Bad Company ...!

... Inevitably Corrupts Good Morals!

PRAYER:

Father,

I've Proved You

O'er And O'er

And

It Is My Heart's Desire

To Dwell With You

On The Beautiful Shore!

I Come To You, Father

Burdened

I Must Confess

For

I Feel Great Sorrow

For My Brethren

Who Have Not 

The Lord Christ's Name Boldly Confessed!

Sin Abounds

But

Your Mercy Abounds More!

Please Help Us, I Beseech You

To Accept Jesus At Our Very Core!

Lift Us Up, Lord!

Guide Us Into All Truth!

Teach Unto Us The Words Of Life

And

Save Us At The Last Day!

Save Us Now Through The Strife!

Help Us Not To Dwell

On Things Dread And Dark

And

Help Us, With Alacrity

To Enter The Provided Salvation Ark!

Lord,

We Bless You

And

We Praise You

And

We Give Unto You All Glory

Honor And Praise

And

We Look With All Longing

To The Great Day

When The Sky At Christ's Coming

Shall With Surpassing Glory

Be Wonderfully Ablaze!

Grant Us The Victory!

The Victory Over Self And Sin

Death, Hell And The Grave

And

Bless Us To Arrive Safely At Home

Where There Is Always

Peace, Love, Joy And Bliss!

Please Accept Our Supplications

And

Grant Unto Us These Few Mercies

For

It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

That We Do Pray 

And

Humbly Plead!

We Love You, Lord!

Please Come Soon!

AMEN.

Who, Really, Is Going To Heaven?!

How Can You Say You Love Jesus
AND
Rabidly Deny The Truth Of His Holy Word!

How Can You Pray Like A Converted Christian
YET
You Live Like A Leading Member Of
The Damned Goat Herd?!

Ahhm, Uhh, Weellll!?!

Thought So!!

I Give You
That "Yes!"
Jesus Christ Loves Everybody
BUT
I Challenge You
To Deny That
He Has A Special Love For His Children
The Ones Who Wear Their Hearts
Filled With Love For Him On Their Sleeve
Choosing To Live For Him
Work For And With Him
Believe And Implicitly Trust Him
Even Die In His Truth
Rather Than To Falsehood Turn Away!

You Do Know That ...

Unconfessed Sin 

Is 

Sin Unforgiven, Right!?!

Sorta, Kinda, I Think So ...!

You Need To Change Your Diet

If All That You Can Come Up With

Sorta, Kinda, I Think So!

Those Who Turn To Jesus Christ

BELIEVE
That He Has Something That They Need!
They Believe ... Wholeheartedly
That
The Holy Jesus 

Will Wholly

Their Dying Souls Save And Feed!

Jesus Christ Said:

Follow Me To Heaven!

AND

He Also Said:

I And The Father Are One!

I Am The Only Way There!

I Am The Truth! 

I Am The Light Which Gives Life!

In Me Is Life!

I Am Life!

I Offer Grace!

Grace Provides Mercy!

Mercy Shares Faith!

Faith Sings Hope!

Hope Gleans Help!

Help Brings Healing!

Healing Carries Salvation!

Know This Of A Surety ...

Salvation 

Is

For Reformed Sinners!

You Must Willingly

Confess The Sin! 

AND
Repent Of The Sin!
BUT
This Is Only Possible
IfThe Savior's Words You Believe

AND

Answer The Holy Spirit's Call
AND, FURTHERMORE
You Have To Believe 

That The Savior 

Is

Real
That The Preserved And Living Word 

Is

A Transcript Of His Holy Character
AND

That It Offers You A Glimpse Behind The Veil!

The Veil Of Sin Separates Us From God!
The Belief In The Word Of God
Reunites Us By Jesus Christ's Faith

Because The Word 

Is 

Almighty God!

Almighty God 

Is 

Jealous For His Name!
His Character 

Is 

Sacrosanct
AND
Disbelief
Doubt
Faithlessness

ANDDenial
Will ... From Heaven
Unrepentant Sinners Keep Out!

I Guess I Have Work To Do!

Don't Guess!

You Must Know And Act!

Jesus Christ Said It: Believe It!
Let It Be Settled And Sealed In Your Heart!

If

You Love Him
Keep His Commandments
AND
From The Ways Of The Damned One
With Alacrity
Depart!

No Unrepentant Sinner
Will See Jesus Christ In Peace

AND
No Regenerated Saint
Will Be With Unconfessed Sin Replete!

The Fact Of The Matter Is Simple ...

Will You Doubt Jesus
And Query:

"Hath God Said!?!"

Or

Will You Believe
Love Trust
Accept
The. Preserved. Word.
AND
Choose
- By Jesus Christ The Righteous -
To Be
To Heaven
- That Eternal City -
Safely Led!?!

I'm Trying Hard To Believe The Whole Word

And To, To, To, Walk Right!

Try Harder!

Jesus Christ Spilled His Own Innocent Blood

Because He Loves You!

I know! I Know!

Please Don't Make This Any Harder For Me!

I Truly Am Not Trying To Do That

BUT

You Must Surely Know That

Truth And Falsity Cannot
- Will Not -

Combine!

Satan And Our Savior Jesus
Cannot
- Do Not -
Will Not
Share A Party Line!

The Choice IS Personal!
The Choice IS Personally Yours!
What Will Your Decision Be:

Grace And Faith
OR
Self And Sin!

Heaven
OR
Hell!

Commendation
OR
Condemnation!

Truth
OR
Lie!

Believe Satan
AND
Almighty God Defy!
Or
Believe Our Savior
Jesus Christ The Lord
AND
For Eternity
Range The Universe
While Living
AND
Worshipping The Blessed Jesus
In The Sweet By And By!

Will You Follow Fashion
AND

The Traditions Of Agenda-ized Men
OrFollow Jesus Christ
AND
Live In Jesus Christ's Faith
Which Gives Victory Over Sin
AND
The World
Death
Hell 

AND

The Grave!?!

Will You Permit Truth, God's Truth
To Speak!?!

Faith Cures Sin-Blindness

So That You Can See

To Follow After Jesus Christ!

Thank You For Speaking Up!

I Really Have Been Blind!

All I Am Asking

Is That You Stop Toeing The Party Line

Buying Into Easy Salvation

No Change Of Heart Or Actions Required!

I Really Appreciate Your Doing This For Me!

Not A Problem!

This Is What True Friends Are For!
