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! 

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!" 

Sin ... And Forgiveness!

Think Deeply About This ...

He Who Had No Sin Became Sin ... For Us!

He Who Is Alive Forever

Died To Give Life To Us

Who Are Dead In Sin And Trespasses!

The Question Is:

How Do We Make The Connection 
To Make The Transaction Real!?! 

Jesus Christ Make The Infinite Deposit

In The Bank Of Eternity: 

We Are Mortal Men, Sinners, Who Live In Time! 

How Are We Going To Make The Needful Withdrawal

So That We May Have Our Necessary Food

And

Directions
Travelling Mercies

Transportation Expenses

Shelter
Protection! 

How Do We Get From Present Living For Hell

To Living To Arrive At The Future Heavenly Home

When There Is Gulf Fixed Betwixt The Two!?!

Lest We Tremble And Fear In Despair 

Let's Remember Jacob's Ladder

The Bridge Between Earth And Glory

The Cross-Bar On The Cross Of Christ

The Benediction Aka It Is Finished

Which Capped The Upper Room Prayer Of Consecration:

Where I Am

There Shall Also My Servants Be! 

Brethren,

We Have A Job Of Work To Do

So Let's Get To Stepping
Because
There Is No Sinner Going To Be Where Jesus Christ Is!
We've Got A House-Cleaning To Accomplish!

All Lawlessness Is Sin! 

All Humans Are Sinners! 

Some Sins Are Natural 
Because 
We Are Born With The Inclination To Sin! 
Some Sins Are Cultivated! 

Some Sins Are Marked As 
Going Where You Shouldn't Go Aka Transgressions

And 

Other Sins Are Called iniquity Aka Planned Sins! 

All Sins Are Forgiven 

... If We Confess ... 

Except For The Sin Of Blasphemy 
Against The Holy Spirit Of Truth 

By Whom We Are Sealed Against The Second Death! 

Forgiveness Is Free!

The Only Person 
Who Doesn't Need Forgiveness For Known Sin 
Is 
Almighty God! 

The Sins That We Do Not Confess Cannot Be Forgiven 

And 

Stay On The Books Of Remembrance In Heaven! 

The Sins That We Humbly Confess 
And 

Repent Aka Turn Away From

Are Cast Into The Sea Of God's Forgetfulness
Never To Be Recalled!

Make The Days Of Your Life Count!

 

Beloved,

We Cannot Climb The Ladder

Cross The Bridge

Escape Time

Or Enter Eternity With The Stench Of 
The Load Of Sin Attached To Our Persons! 

No Escaping The Facts ... 

We Sin By Thought, Word And Deed Daily

So Let's Make It A Habit 
To Confess Are Repent Of Our Sins Daily 

Because 

Tomorrow Is Not Promised To Any Of Us

Our Name Is Not Jesus Christ

And 

Our Tongues Are Not Bibles 
Aka The Preserved Word Of The Eternal God! 

Let's Believe The Living Word

Accept And Gratefully Use Our Gift Of Forgiveness

And 

Be At Peace With And In Our Savior 
And 

Coming King

Jesus Christ The Lord!
Soon, Very Soon, The Last Trumpet Will Sound!

Dead Men

Can't Praise Almighty God

And

Can't Ask

For Forgiveness!

The Putrid Pot Of Peas!

Power

Pride

Presumption

Pleasure

Are Four Peas In A Putrid Pot

Because

They Make Otherwise Wise People Believe That 
The Prince Of Peace
The God Of Grace
The Lord Of Life 

Will Not Ever Call Them Out!

We Are Called Christian

Because

We Faithfully Follow The Lord Christ

Doing As He Did
And

Causing The Father To Behold Us In Delight

But

We Fall Short Of The Glory Of God

By Walking On The Wild Side

Doing As Did Lucifer ... Now Satan

The Adversary Of Souls

He Who Would Take The Worship That

Belongs To The True Living

Giving Blessing Kind Holy Eternal God!

Do Not Think For A Moment That

You Can Separate The Love Of Almighty God

From His Justice!

Do Not Think For A Moment That

Satan Is Punished

And

The Lord Will Let You Slide

Just Because You Name The Name

Say The Prayers

And Give Free-Will Offerings 
And Pay The Owed Tithes

Because 

You Will Be Sadly Mistaken

And

For Gross Folly
Satan Will Willingly, Excitedly ... Pleasurably
Carry You On A One-Way Trip

To Death And Damnation

Which Will Never See You Crossing

The Separation Line!

Jesus Christ Is Power

And Yet

He Was Humble!

Satan Indulged Pride

And

It Saw Him From Heaven Tumble!

Lady Eve, King Saul, King David, Judas Iscariot

All Indulged In The Sin Of Presumption

And

The End Result Involving All

- To A Measurable Degree -

Involved Death:

To King Saul And Judas Iscariot

It Plainly States

To Hill Zion

These Will Never Enter The Pearl Gate!

This Leaves Us With ... Brings Us To

Lady Eve ... The Mother Of All Living

And

King David ... Through Whose Line The Savior Of Man Came! 

Repentance Is Good

For The Human Soul!

Brethren, Beloved 

Confession Of Known Sin

And

Repentance Therefor 

Puts You Outside Of Satan's Damnable Circle

And

Into The Safe Fold Of The Good Shepherd

Jesus Christ Our Lord And God

Who Was Lowly, Gentle, Meek And Mild

Who Indulged Prayerful Communion With
And

Who Walked In The Will And The Ways Of
Our Great Father

The Ancient Of Days! 

If You Love The Lord

Keep His Commandments!

Get Over Your Self ...

Humility Is Not A Put-Down

And

Unchecked Pride Is Not A Lift Up! 

Presumption Is Not Profitable

Unchecked Power Is Not Valuable

And

The Unhinged Pursuit Of Pleasure

For Pleasure's Unholy Sake

Is

A Free-Ride, One-Way, Non-Negotiable

Premium Ticket

Through Hell's Always Smooth, Hot And Wide Entrance

To The Burning With Fire And Brimstone Lake! 

Turn Back, Beloved

Before It Is Too Late! 

Don't Be Like Satan

Who Has Sealed His Own Fate! 

Think About It ...

One Great Difference 
Between The Saint Bound For Glory 
And 
The Sinner Bound For Hell 

Is 
The Inordinate Love For Experiencing Pleasure 
Just For Experiencing Pleasure
That Bold Sinners Find Exceedingly Pleasurable 
To The Rabid Exclusion Of Common Sense
Temporal Safety 
And 
Freely Given And  Presently Available Soul Salvation! 

Our Creator God Plainly Told Us What Is Good 
But 
We Are Allowing A Deceitful, Treacherous
Condemned, Damned, Fallen Cherub 
To Tell Us What Pleasure Is
Because
He Has A Cultured Voice
And
Wonder-Working Powers Of Unholy Persuasion! 

Lady Eve Permitted Satan To Convince Her Of 
What Is Pleasant To The Taste
Beautiful To The Eye
And 
Good To Make One Wise 
And 
We Are Still Paying The Price For That Disobedience!

I Beseech Us All, Brethren
Please Don't Pay With Your Skin 
What Your Soul Can't Afford: 
Earthly Pleasures Fade Fast! 

Let's Be Truly Wise: Listen To The Lord

And 

Be Forever Blessed!

A Pig In Pearls Is Still A Pig

And

A "Christian"

Calling The Name Of Jesus Christ

And

Living The Life Of Riley

And

Playing Footsie With Satan

Is Not Ever

Going To Be A Translated Saint!

Learn The Difference

Between Sinner And Saint

And

Choose According To

Your Preferred Final Destination!

Your Choice Is Your Ticket!

Jesus Christ

The Holy God Glorious

The King Kind

The Judge Righteous

Will Direct You To Your Assigned Gate!

HAPPY SABBATH + THE HEART OF MAN + PRAYER: Lead Kindly Light!

The Heart Of Man Is Desperately Wicked! 
The Fool Says In His Heart That There Is No God! 

Wisdom And The Ability To Walk Come From Our Maker! 

We Are To Trust In The Lord Forever 
For In Him Is Everlasting Strength! 

Man ... Fallen Short Of The Glory Of The Eternal God
Is 
A Sinner! 

Only Jesus Christ Can Provide The Deliverance 
From Sin, Self, Satan, Death, Hell 

And 

The Grave That Man Needs!

Man Needs Jesus Christ ... Almighty God 
Who Alone Is Wise! 

We Are Man: Let's Be Wise ... Unto Salvation! 

Let's Be Humble 

And 

Walk To The Throne Of Grace Boldly 
Where We Are Promised Help 

In Our Time Of Need! 

We Need Help Now! 

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

Please Deliver Us From The Evil That Is Stalking Man! 

Help Us To Trust You Faithfully

And Obey Always, Out Of Love

And For Blessings Untold That 

Await Us Who Are  Faithful To The End! 

Help Us, Dear Lord

To Recognize, Understand And Accept

That We Have The Great Need For Our Only Savior

And

Help Us To Act With Resolve

Calling Upon That Most Worthy Name

Jesus Christ The Righteous

Before Whom Every Knee

In Heaven And Upon The Earth

Shall, With Humility, Bow! 

Oh, Lord

How Long Before We Hear That Glad Sound

Signalling That Our Lord Christ Returns!?! 

However Long, Lord

Help Us To Keep The Faith Of Jesus Christ 

The Faith Of The Father

Our Hope For Surpassing Glory! 

Help Us Not To Look At What Is

But To Look To And Hope In 

Who Is Creator, Sustainer, Redeemer, Almighty God

Able To Heal, Help

Feed And Reveal 

Save And Seal! 

Help Us To Deny That Base Liar, Satan

The Accuser Of The Brethren

Our Known Adversary

Who, As A Roaring Lion

Is Seeking Whom He May Devour! 

Help Us To Resist That Devil 

So That He Will Flee From Us! 

Oh, Father

Help Us To Sing In Our Hearts That Glad Song

"Christ Returneth!" 

To Cheer Us On Our Way

As We Are, Indeed, Nearing Home! 

Help Us To Not Lose Our Hope

Our Grip On Grace! 

Help Us So That No Created Being 

May Disturb Or Destroy

Our Bed Of Belief

Built On The Rock That Shall Destroy The Great Idol

And Shall Fill The Whole Earth Forevermore! 

Help Us, Dear Father

To Ever Remember

And

Always Embrace The Truth That Saves

That Says:

The Lord Jesus Christ Is My Only Shepherd

Therefore I Shall Lack Nothing

Because

He Leads Me, Personally 

Into Green Pastures

And 

Glory Be To The Father

To The Son

And

To The Holy Spirit

By Whom We Are Sealed

Against The Day Of Vengeance

He Lovingly Restores My Soul! 

We Need You, Dear Lord! 

Please Take Us By The Hand

And 

By Your Kindly Light 

Lead Us Safely, Gently

Surely, Securely

To Our Eternal, Heavenly, Home! 

In Jesus Christ Matchless, Holy Name

We Pray And Importunately Plead! 

We Love You! 

Please Come Soon! 

AMEN!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Trouble In The Land!?!

There Was A Famine Coming To Egypt Land:
Jacob-Israel's Son, Prime Minister Joseph
Gathered Grain To Make Good-Eating Bread!
There Is A Famine Coming In This Modern Time:
Dear Christian, 
Gather The Word: It Is Living Bread Not Dead!

Be Wise ...

Above All Else
Become Aware Of Streaming Time
Of Where You Stand
Of Whom You Serve
Of What You Can Do For Your Master
And
Of What He Is Doing ... Has Done
And
Will Surely Do For You
And
What He Had Done And Is Doing
In The Lives Of Myriad Believing Others! 
This Knowledge Will Strengthen You!

The Glorious God Gives Wisdom ...
 

Understand What Needs To Be Done
And
What Needs To Be Done, Personally, By You!

Accept And Believe That He Who Sends You
Will Equip, Lead, Feed
And 
Most Assuredly Protect You!

The Lord Equips The Called!

He Does Not Call The Equipped!

Dare To Unflinchingly Trust 
The Holy Word Of Him Who Calls You

The Living Word Of Him Who Sends You

And

Dispossessing Yourself Of Every Scintilla Of Doubt 

Go Where Your Lord Sends You

Do What He Says

Take No Contrary Instruction From Anyone

Who Is Not The Lord Who Commissioned You To Perform

And

Leave The Outcome In The Hands Of Your Lord And God

Who Cannot

Who Will Not Ever Lie!
Don't Forget That For You, Personally, He Did Bleed And Die!

Understand And Remember, Beloved

That There Are Those Who Allegedly "Work" For Heaven

That Are Sent From 
And
Get Paid At The Gates Of Hell!

Giving Off An Aura Of Light

Does Not Make One An Angel

A Messenger Of Almighty God!

Let No One Deceive You ...

There Are Ministers Of That Other Jesus

Ministers Of That Other Gospel

Who Tell Lies To Almighty God's People ... For Profit

For Prestige

For Fear

For Worldly Acceptance!

Through Heaven's Pearly Gates They Never Gain Entrance!

Everybody Who Says:

"Lord, Lord!"

Shall Not Enter Into 

The Kingdom Of Heaven!

Remember,

Only Jesus Christ Saves
And

Jesus Christ, Alone, Can Create

And

Destroy! 

Beloved,
Fear Him Who Commands The Blessing
And
Worship Him Who Will Raise Us Up From Death
To Meet Him In The Air
When He Breaches The Eastern Sky! 

The Redeemed Faithful
To His Side
On Wings Of Eagles
Shall Surely Fly!

Thought For The Week Ahead:

 

The Highest Form Of Worship 
Is 
Obedience
And

Christians Are Called To Be Doers Of The Word 

And 

Not Just Hearers!

Jesus Christ Says To Us All: 

If You Love Me

Keep My Commandments! 

To Obey Is Better Than To Sacrifice!

Brethren,

We Are Servants 
Who Are Also Sons And Daughters Of
The Eternal God Holy
So, Please, Let Us Who Are Sacrificially Loved

And 

Blessed With Mercy Because Of Grace

Be Obedient To Our Lord ... Unto Death 
Which, For The Saints Of God And Christ

Is 

Sleep From Which He Shall Awaken Us
In The Day Appointed! 

The Dead In Christ Shall Rise First!

The Word Of The Lord Christ
Is
A Sure And Secure Word
So Do All By The Holy Spirit Of Truth
To Believe, Trust, And Obey The Lord Always!

You Most Assuredly Will Be Blessed Always

And Then

Forevermore! 

The Promise Of The Living God
Is 
Written In The Innocent Blood Of Jesus Christ The King
Our Soon-Returning Lord! 

Let Your Answer

To The Lord God Almighty

Always Be

"Yeah!" And "Amen!"
