Nothing Can Separate Us From The Love Of The Eternal God!

Beloved, 

Since The Totality Of The Things Possible To Embitter Our Lives 
Cannot Separate Us From The Love Of God
From Jesus Christ Our Creator ... Our King
Why In The Name Of This Same Jesus 
Are We Permitting The Trivialities
The Pettiness
The Mosquito Annoyances
The Plague Rats
The Rabid Dogs 
And 
The Thieving Cats That Visit Us In Our Daily Lives 
To Cause Us To Doubt That Our God Holy, Giving, Forgiving
Blessing, Leading, Guiding
And
Teaching
Is 
Preparing 
And
Positioning Us For Our Journey Home
To Our Heavenly Father's House Of Love, Joy 
And
Eternal Peace!?! 

Let's Get Real ...

There Is Nothing That Happens To The Obedient Child Of God 
That Is Accidental For Us 
Or
A Shock To Our God Almighty
Mighty To Save Each And Every One Of Us
Who Is Willing To Be Saved! 

We Are Being Regenerated 
And 
The Rust ... The Sin
The Bad Habits
The Noxious Attitudes
And 
The Unhealthy Desires 
Are Being Purged From Our Lives! 

Please Let Us Allow The Circumstances In Our Lives 
To Be Only What They Truly Are: Teachers! 

Be Bright Sparks ...

Let's Learn The Lesson Taught 
The First Time It Appears 
So That We Won't Have To Repeat It Time And Again!

Just So You Know ...

Every Lesson That We Must Relearn
Is
Presented Differently
And
The Exam Is Infinitely Harder!

School Is In Session: 
Choose To Be Alert 
And 
Freely Dare To Learn! 

Pardon Me
But Are You Saying That Nothing
Or No One Can Separate The Born-Again Believer
From The Love Of God!?!
Seriously!?!

You Are Pardoned
And
I Did Not Stutter: 
No Thing 
And 
No One 
Can Separate The Obedient Child Of God 
From His Maker, God And King! 

If You Are Aware Of Someone ... Or Something 
That Shall Be Able To Accomplish The Impossible
Please Feel Free To Document Same For My Study: 
I Am Willing To Be Taught 
And 
Ever Willing To Learn!

What About The Disobedient Child!?!

For Example, Me!?!

Disobey ... And Repent! 
The Lord Remembers That We Are Dust 
And
Weak
And
Need Him! 

The Price That Was Paid For Your Salvation 
Is 
Infinite Love! 
Live Up To The Price Paid ... You Can't 
And 
Believe 
And 
Trust 
And
Enduringly Obey! 

You Appear Before Him A Sinner 
But
A Presumptuous Sinner You Cannot Remain!
Believe The Living Word!
Live By The "Thus Saith The Lord ...!" 
And 
Walk In Holy Light ... Giving Up Self 
And 
Choosing The Savior ... No Matter What 
Even If You Don't Fully Understand! 

Beloved,

The God Of Grace ... For Me, For You
Is 
Not A Liar
So Stop Striving Against The Holy God Who Loves You Best
And

Rest Easy ... In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!

Since You Put That Way
I Willingly Yield!

Peace Be Upon You!

AMEN!!!

The Green Olive Tree

 

To Be A Green Olive Tree 

Is 

To Be Something Precious ... Beautiful

Bearing Good Fruit

Abundantly Fruitful

And 

Immensely Useful! 

Such Is The Lot

The Call

The Mission

The Duty Of All Who Will To Be Evergreen Christians 

In The House Of The Lord Of Life! 

The Lord Prunes Those Whom He Uses! 

Those Whom He Uses 
Are Equipped By The Lord ... Himself

To Do The Work That 
He Has Ordained To Be Accomplished! 

Those Whom The Lord Uses 
Unfailingly Put Their Trust In Him 

And 

Rest Under The Shadow Of His Wings 
Until The Terrors Of Life Are Passed 
And We

In The Fullness Of God's Timing

Stand In The Open

In The Glorious Kingdom

In His Glorious Presence ... Forevermore! 

Beloved, 

We Have A Work To Do For Our Lord Christ 

And 

Faith, Trust

And 

Enduring Obedience Are Required! 

Let's Take As The Lord Feeds Us By His Holy Spirit 

And 

Let Us Feed The World 
Known Hungry For Saving Truth! 

Let's Feed Others 
From Our Plate Of Good Food From God 

So That We May Receive 
More Good Food From God! 

The Lord Feeds The Green Olive Tree 
And 

The Green Olive Tree Feeds The World With The Golden Olive Oil

The Holy Spirit, Within! 

Talk Is Cheap: 

Get Up And Do A Good Work For Almighty God! 

Heaven At Any Personal Cost 
Is 
Cheap! 

Peace!

PRIDE: Purgative And Preventative

The Soul That Is Inflated With Putrid Pride 
Will Never, Ever ... Without The Holy Spirit's Aid
Be Humble, Meek Or Needy Enough 
To Lower Itself In Prayer 
To Ask For Necessary Help And Comfort 
Or Saving Grace! 

Pride Did Not Profit Satan!

Beloved, 

Pride Is A Purgative 
And
A Preventative 
Which Has No Place At All In The Character 
Or Clothes Closet 
Or Medicine Cabinet Of The True Christian 
Committed To Jesus Christ 
And 
His Holy Cause! 

As A Purgative
Pride Washes Out ... Cancels ... Faith! 

Without Faith

It Is Impossible

To Please The Living God!

As A Preventative
Pride Prevents Us From Humbling Ourselves 
Under The Mighty Hand Of Almighty God 
Who Will Lift Up All Of Us ... Who Are Willing
To The Heights Of His Glory 
In His Time! 

A Humble Heart Displays

A Teachable Spirit:

The Lord Can Work With Such!

Truth Sets A Soul Free ...

Pride Sees Self And Not The Savior 
And
If You Can't See Your Savior
You Won't Seek To Become Like Him! 

Brethren,

We Need Jesus Christ ... The Love Of God
And 
When We Rid Ourselves Of Foolish Pride 
By The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Because Of Saving Grace
We Will ... With Humility ... Pray With Healthy Hearts 
For The Protection, Provision
Peace 
And
Purity Provided To Us By The Prince Of Peace 
Who Is Our Only 
And 
Perfect Peace! 

Pride Presses Us Down To Hell! 
Humility Hoists Us Up To Heaven! 
Learn The Difference
Choose The Right Path ... To Glory
Be Humble ... Like Jesus
And 
Be Forever Blessed! 

No Jesus, No Peace!

Know Jesus, Know Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Hold Fast To The Truth!

 

Brethren,

Going To Heaven With The Lord Christ 
Is
Your Personal Choice
And
Going To Hell With Satan The Adversary
Is
Your Personal Choice!

Please Remember That There Is No Default Position
And
Keep In The Forefront Of Your Mind That
Neither Jesus Christ Nor Satan
Can Force You To Accompany Them
To Their Place Of Abode:
Jesus Christ Won't
And
Satan Can't!

Please Pay Attention ...

For All Of Us Who Hope To See Jesus Christ In Perfect Peace 

And 

Share In His Everlasting Glory

Let Us Remember How Abhorrent Lying 
Is 
To The Lord Of Life 

And 

Choose To Have A Firm Hold On Truth, Honesty And Integrity! 

Satan's Lying Decimated Heaven Of One-Third Of Its Citizens 

And 

Booked A Place For Them All In The Lake Of Fire Aka Hell 

From Which There Is No Appeal 

And 

No Escape! 

The Thought Of Being An Abomination

In The Sight Of The Holy God 

Should Scare Us Mightily 

And 

Greatly Encourage Us To Choose Life In The Light Of Eternity 

And 

Walk Straight On The Narrow Path To Our Heavenly Home! 

Lies Kill! 

Liars Are Murderers! 

Murderers Are Condemned
And
Condemned Murderers Are Destroyed

Because

No Murderer Shall Enter The Gates Of Glory 

So Please, I Beseech Us All
Don't Tell Lies

White Lies

Lies In Jest

Convenient Lies

Lies To Get Ahead
Lies For A Conversation

Or Lies To Save Your Skin: 
Almighty God Does Not Approve! 

Beloved, 

Truth 
Is 
An Always Open Rich Bank 
With You As Your Own Personal Teller! 

Lies Are A Lasso ... A Hangman's Noose

And 

The Liar 
Is 
The Eager, Known-Ghoulish, Hangman! 

Be Ye Warned And Armed ... By The Truth! 

Please Choose Truth! 

Please Choose Life

And

Please Choose The Holy Way

And

Be Blessed To Be A Blessing Today! 

Lovingly Embrace Truth!  

Unswervingly Follow Truth! 

Conscientiously Embrace 

And 

Enduringly Follow Christ Jesus ... By Faith

For He Is The Truth

The Shepherd Of Rest

The Light Of Every Man

The Rock Of Our Salvation

The Way To Life

And

The Only Open Door To The Heavenly Home! 

Fervently Pray ... And Press On! 

Peace Be Upon You!

Please The Almighty God

And

Be At Peace With The Lord

And

Live In Peace With Your Fellowman! 

There is No Sanctification Without The Holy Spirit!

Never Follow The Multitude

To Hear Evil

To See Evil

Or

To Do Evil!

Sanctification ... Our Setting Apart
Our Being Made Holy 
Is 
The Work Of One's Lifetime 
And 
Is Accomplished By All The Members Of The Godhead 
Who Said In The Beginning: 

"Let Us Make Man In Our Own Image

After Our Own Likeness!" 

Our Sanctification 
Is 
By God The Father
In Jesus Christ 
And 
Through The Holy Spirit Of Truth
By Whom We Are Sealed Against The Day Of Judgment 
When All Of Our Works
- Our Doings In The Flesh -
Shall Be Revealed 
Whether They Commend Us To God And Glory 
Or 
Condemn Us To Hell's Damnation! 

Beloved, 

Let Us Not Join With Those Who Lift Up The Father
Denigrate The Son 
And 
Deny The Holy Spirit 
By Calling Him "It" 
And 
Rejecting His Personhood By Making Him An "Essence!?!" 

Almighty God

Cannot

Deny Himself!

Creation Made It Clear That 
The Holy Spirit Moves 
And 
Works! 

Father God Made It Clear That 
Without The Spirit's Indwelling 
Men Become Vessels For Satan's Use And Abuse!

The Holy Spirit Came On Jesus As A Dove
And 
Jesus Christ Made It Clear That 
It Is By His Father's And His Own Desire That 
The Holy Spirit Was Sent To Dwell In And Amongst Us 
As Comforter, Teacher, Guide 
And 
Corrector! 

The Rubber Is About To Meet The Road
And
Now Is Not The Time To Be Unsure
Or Ignorant Of Who Is The Lord God Almighty
Holy, Just, Kind, Loving, Giving And Forgiving!

Let Us Not Deny Almighty God By Denying The Holy Spirit! 
Father, Son And Holy Spirit All Participate In Our Salvation
Participated In Our Creation
And
Shall Participate In The Day Of Our Final Redemption
At Jesus Christ's Second Coming!

We Need The Father,
The Son 
And 
The Holy Spirit! 
The House Belongs To The Father!
The Son Is The Door
And 
The Holy Spirit 
Is 
The Key In The Door Of The House! 

Remember ...

Godhead Three 
And 
All-Life-We 
   In Total Cooperation
      As Enduring Faithful Christians! 
We Shall Be Sanctified 
For We Shall Be Like Our Jesus 
Who Bought Us Back From Sin!

We Are Going Home To Our Father God 
And 
The Holy Spirit Is Here Helping Us 
To Get There Safely! 
Cooperate!

Give Thanks Anyhow

It Is Not Easy

To Give Thanks In A Storm! 

It Is Not Easy To Give Thanks

When One's Heart Is Torn

But

The Father Has Given Instruction

For Us To Give Thanks ... Anyhow 

And

If We Are Going To Be Obedient Children Of God 

Students Of The School Of Jesus Christ

And

Servants Of The Master

It Is Become Imperative That

We Start Giving Thanks

And

Doing So Right Now!

 

In All Things Give Thanks! 

Give Thanks With A Grateful Heart! 
There Is None Good But God! 

God Be Merciful To Me ... A Sinner! 

Beloved, 

Our Good God Is Gracious

A Stronghold In The Time Of Trouble 
And 

A Pleasance

A Good And Peaceful Place Wherein To Dwell At All Times! 

This Same Good And Gracious God 
Bestows Mercy ... Enduring Mercy ... Upon Us All 
Whether We Are Faithful Or Doubtful

Thankful Or Ungrateful

Planning For Heaven 

Or 
Booked For Hell! 

Get A Grip ...

Hold On

- Against Common-Sense Or Apparent Evidence - 

To The Living Word

To The Holy God

To Truth Everlasting! 

The Fact Remains ...

Anything That Endures, Lasts
And 

Anyone Who Endures All For Christ 
- To The End Of Mortal Life -

Shall Live Again To Live The Enduring Life Everlasting 

In The Land Of The Forever Blessed! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Hold On To Your Hope With Faithful Hands
Because

Our God's Mercy Shown To Us 

Can Never Fail To Bless Us! 

Dare To Choose To Trust, Obey

And Hope

And Endure 

Through Your Journey To Life: 
Enduring Mercy ... Jesus Christ The Lord The King

Is 

With Us 

And

For Us! 

Encourage Yourself ...

Pray! 

Give Thanks! 

Sing The Songs Of Zion! 

Rest On The Merciful Jesus 

And 

Know Of A Surety That
You Shall Be Forever Blessed! 

Jesus Christ's Gift Of Peace

Is

The Only Peace That Lasts

And

Almighty God's Free Mercy Endures Forever

So ... In The Name Blessed Forever

The Name Of Jesus Christ Our Lord The King:

"Peace Be Upon You

As You Experience

Almighty God's

Free-To-All Mercy

Today!" 

COMMITTED TO CHRIST: The "As For Me ..." Moment

Every Committed Christian Has An "As For Me!" Moment 
When Against The Backdrop Of 
Common Sense, Temporal Prosperity
Familial Opposition
And 
Occupational Security 
They Will Say With The Conviction Of Working Faith
And 
Concrete Trust: 

"The Lord Is My Shepherd

My Portion, My Peace! 

I Will Walk In His Ways! 

Whatever Befalls Me

I Shall Ever Give Him

My True And Heartfelt Praise! 

I Do Not Pray To A False God! 

I Pray To The King Of Kings! 

I Lean On The God Eternal 

And

It Is By His Grace Available

His Mercy Free

That I Choose His Blessed Way

Through This Life 

To Enduringly Go Walking!" 

Beloved, 

I Pray For Us Strength For Our Journey
And 
Courage For The Way On Which We Must Travel! 

Only The Lord Christ 
Can Cause Us To Arrive Safely At The Heavenly Home 
So Choose To Behold Him Now ... In His Word
And
Be Satisfied With His Provision And Protection Now 
And
Having Declared Your Commitment To Him And His Cause
Embrace His Righteousness 
Through His Daily Gift To You Of Faith For The Day
Whilst Being Ever Obedient To Live Companionably With Truth 
And
Know Of A Surety That You Shall Rise Up 
To Go Up To His Glory 
Bearing His Likeness In Your Then-Glorified Body! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Stand Up For The Lord Jesus
Even If It Means That
You Stand Alone For Him! 
His Great Glory Awaits His Faithful Children!

Point To Ponder:

To Smell The Wonderful Scent Of The Beautiful Rose
One Risks Being Stung By A Honey Bee
Nestled In Its Velvety-Soft Folds!

To Cut And Possess One Fragrant And Beautiful Bloom
One Risks Being Scratched By Or Hooked Upon A Thorn:
We Take The Risk ... For The Known Reward!

There Is Risk With A Rose:
There Is No Risk Involved In Trusting The Lord Jesus!

The Lord Tells Us In His Word
What He Has Done For Us!
What He Is Doing For Us
And
What He Will Be Doing For Us!

We Have Full Disclosure
And
The Guarantee Of Performance
Is
Written With Innocent Blood
So That We May Safely Walk Courageously
Encouraged By The Faith That He Daily Gives Us
Until The Great Day Dawns
And
Our Tested Mortal Faith Becomes Approved Immortal Eyesight!

Faith In Jesus Christ

Is

Its Own Reward!

KNOWING: Heaven With Jesus Christ Is Our Home!

We Who Hold The Almighty God In Godly Fear ... In Awe

Trust The Unerring, Infallible, Word Of 
This Great And Glorious, Giving, Blessing, Holy God 

Whose Ways Are Perfect 

And 

Whose Promises Cannot Fail To Be Performed! 

In This God ... Our Jesus Christ

We Have The Lively Promise Of A Known End: 
Heaven With Him When The Last Trumpet Shall Sound

Plus Immortality ... We Shall Live Forever

And 

Incorruptibility ... We Can't Die Or Ever Sin Again! 

In The Realm Of The Flesh, We Die And We Sin: 

In The Realm Of The Spirit Of The Holy God

We Have The Good Life To Look Forward To 

And 

We May Taste This Future Life Now 

By Living With Active Faith

Cherishing Willing Obedience

And 

Walking Wise In The Certain Knowledge That 

Our Jesus Has A Home For Each One Of Us Personally! 

Beloved, 

It Is Appointed, Once, For Man To Die

But

The One Who Dies Having Lived In The Holy Faith 
Given To The Saints Of God And Christ

Will Die Secure In The Knowledge Of 
The Gift Of Eternal Life With Christ! 

Heaven Is Home: 

Let No Created Being ... Fallen Angel Or Wicked Human

Kill Your Hope Tree! 

Brethren,

Live Like You Intend To Inhabit 
Your God-Built House And Eternal Home!
I Pray To See You All In The Beautiful City!

The Lord Knows That I'm Trying!

The Lord Knows That I Often Fail Miserably 
But I'm Never Gonna Stop Or Give Up!

We Are Made of Dust 
With The Breath Of The Living God Added
Which Makes Us Living Souls! 
We All Are Born In Sin
And
We All Have Sinful Natures
But
The Word Of The Lord Nurtures Us
To Do The Good And The Right
So That We, Willing, May All Be Saved!

Please Refuse To Look At Your Mistakes
After You Have Willingly Confessed 
And 
Sincerely Repented Of Them To Our Loving Lord!

Choose, Instead
To Look At Jesus Christ Through The Lens Of The Living Word
And 
Choose To Believe That 
The Good Work That Jesus Christ Has Started In You
He Is Utterly Going To Finish! 

Our God ... Your God
Is 
Bigger Than Your Sin
So Please Keep Your Faith Fixed 
And 
Your Eyes Focused On Christ Jesus! 

We Are All Sinners!
Those Who Choose To Believe The Word
Like Us ... Like You
Are Sinners ... Saved!
Jesus Christ Is Your Personal Savior:
Believe It And Live With Joy In Jesus! 

Remember ...

Almighty God See Our Tears
Hears Our Prayers
And
Is Never Indifferent To Our Pains, Fears Or Uncertainties!
Keep Praying!
Keep Trusting
And
Keep Maintaining Your Focus On The Lord Christ
And
His Gift To Us Of Eternal Life!
Jesus Christ, Alone, Saves!

AMEN!!!
