HAPPY SABBATH + JESUS CALLS US: Come Dirty And Be Made Clean!

... We Serve The Eternal God 
Who Will Accept Us As We Are!
There Is No Need To Wait For "Preparedness"
So There Is No Excuse!

Unfortunately, 
Satan Has People Believing That
Their Sin Is Too Sinful
And
Our God Is Too Holy
For Him To Accept Them As They Are
So They Must "Get Clean" From Their Sin ... First!

That's Really Sad! 

Indeed it is!

Satan Is And Always Was A Deceiver!

A Person Goes To Jesus Dirty
But He Will Not Remain That Way!

I Really Want To Walk In Faith With Jesus! 

Since That Is The Truth
And
It Is Jesus Christ Who Gives Us Daily Faith
Choose, Choose, Choose To Walk In Faith
In The Your Received Gift Of Daily Faith

And

Choose To Give Over Your Will To The Lord 

Who Gave It To You! 

Beloved, I Can't Stress Enough That
Walking In Faith Is A Choice! 

Understand This ...

Soul Surrender Is Easy And Hard
Because
Your Selfish, Willful, Self
Wants ... Desperately Desires ... To Wear The Crown
And
Sit On The Throne That Is Your Heart
Which Should Only Be For The Residence Of The Lord
By His Holy Spirit! 

There's Work To Be Done ...

You Must Deny Yourself! 

You Must Be Humble ... And Prayerful

And 

Vigorously See To It That
You Don't Look Around At Who Has What

And

Is doing Whatever!

I Hear That!

To Us All, I Say
Choose To Walk With Jesus 

Permitting Him To Lead You

And

To Be Your Unfailing Guide!

Jesus Christ Utterly Loves You 

And 

He Would Have Died To Save You, Me

Even If Any One Of Us 
Was The Only Human On Earth! 

That's Real Sacrificial Love! 

You, Me, We Are Special And Precious 

In The Lord's Holy Eyes And Heart
So, Now, Let's Think About Where That Fact Leaves Us! 

Brethren, 

We Have The Life-Delivered 

Engraved With Innocent-Blood 

Love-For-Fallen-Man Invitation

From The Only Holy Heart! 

Let's, Therefore, Consider 

What The Prophet Isaiah Has Cautioned Us:

 

The Fact That We Are Encouraged 

To Seek The Savior 

While He May Be Found 

Clearly Tells Us That The Day Is Coming 
When Seeking ... Searching ... For Him 
Will Be In Vain! 

Grace, Mercy, Pardon 
And 
Peace 
Are Available Now 

While The Door Of Mercy 
Is 
Open To All Mankind! 

Today ... Is The Day! 

Today Is The Day ... Of Salvation

And 

Right Now Is The Time To Accept 
What Is Available, Accessible

And 

Free! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Let's Not Be Among Those Who Shall Say That 

"The Summer Is Ended And We Are Not Saved!" 

Because

They Were Careless About Saving Their Own Souls! 

Please Do Not Let 
"Too Late!" 
Be Your Last Cry! 

Please Choose Everlasting Life!

Brethren, 

Be Wise Unto Salvation! 

Be Proactive While It Is Possible Today

And 

Be Assured That You Will Be Blessed

By Him Who Calls You

Who Is Ready, Willing, And Able

To Receive You! 

Jesus Christ Is Our Peace!

Please Don't Sell Peace 
To Finance A War That You ... Man ... Cannot Win!

Take Jesus Christ Now

For He Is Light And Life

And

The Only Way To Experience 
Our Father's Promised Heavenly Delights! 

Thank Almighty God, Brethren:
Jesus Christ Saves! 

AMEN!!! 

Stand Faithfully

On

The Unfailing Promises

Of

The Eternal, Holy, God!

 

WORKING FAITH: Seeker-Sensitive Christianity!?!

Better Music
Lower Expectations
And
Shorter Service
Are Denizens Of Seeker-Sensitive Church
You Know
That Happening Congregation
Where People Get High On Life
Expect The Blessings Of The Lord
But
Do Not Desire The Interventional
Transformational, Regenerative, Relationship
That Comes Of Personally, Intimately,
Knowing The Lord Christ!

The All-About-Me Cry 
Causes The Lord Christ Real Shame:

Self Is Not A Sinner!
Sin Is Subjective!
Personal Truth Is Paramount!

The Living Word Of Truth
Is
On The Block Called Dismount!

Surprise And Shock ...

The Question Was Asked
Supposedly Sincerely:

If Almighty God Knows Everything
Why Can't He Set Himself
A Different Standard
A Different Set Of Rules
So That He Doesn't Have To Be Unkind
And, In His Sense Of Justice
Destroy Those Who Choose To Break His Laws!?!

News Flash :

The Handmade Pot

Called Its Maker

Black, Black, Black!

Did Somebody Just Say ... Awwwwkward!?!

The Lord Of Earth And Glory
Is 
Seeking After Us
And
We Should Be Seeking After Him
Not Calling Him To Follow Us!

He Says In The Plain Truth Text
He That Seeks Me
Shall Find Me
When He Seeks After Me
With All Of His Heart!

And

The Question Must Be Asked:

Brethren,

The Living God Holds Our Lives In His Hands
And
He Does Not Rearrange His Schedule
To Suit Our Sinful Proclivities
Or Our Then-Fashionable Felt Needs!

It Is, Indeed, A Presumptuous Sort
Who Dares To Advance The Thought That
The Eternal God Operates ... Or Should Operate
According To Whatever Illuminated Nonsense
Is 
Being Proffered As The Soup De Jour
The Flavor Of The Month
The Trend Of The Hour!

Time To Get Real ...

Get Away, Satan!
Depart! Depart!
You Have No Shares In Me
No Matter If You Sing As The Lark
You Bold Liar Strumming The Lyre!
You Are Damned ... Condemned
And
Your End Is In The Prepared For You Funeral-Pyre
Lake Burning With Brimstone And Fire!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Am Seeking Salvation!

I Am Seeking From Sin To Be Set Free!

I Am Seeking The Lord Christ As My Savior

And

To Be Cleansed Of Known Sin

I'm Using My Prayer Of Confession And Repentance

As The Wash-Water-Bearing Laver!

Please Help Me Your Truth To Savor!

Help Me In The Ripe Fields Of Earth To Labor!

Help Me The Good News Gospel

To Tell My Near And Far-Off Neighbor

And

Help Me Most Of All

Never, Ever, Again

With Known Sin By Caprice

To Blithely Caper! 

I Need You, Lord!

I Love You!

Bless Me To Enjoy The Heavenly Home

In The Time Appointed

For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

That I Humbly, Prayerfully, Plead!

I See My Real Need!

AMEN!

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I Want To Live In Peace With You!

Heavenly Father,

Thank You For My Many Blessings!

With Grateful Heart And Willing Spirit

I Seek Your Face

And

Of Blessings

I Seek Another!

Please Grant Unto Me Spiritual Ears

To Hear

So That I May Heed Your Spirit's Call

So That My Carnal Eyes

Presumptuous

Vain

Willful

Disobedient

Will Not Be Able To Encourage Me To Walk

On Sinful Flesh's Downward Gradient!

I Need No Encouragement To Look Down!

Sinful Self Makes That All Too Easy To Do!

So

I Am Calling, Lord

Unto You

To Help Me To Look Up

And

To Change My Life's Perspective

So That I No Longer Walk In Vanity

But

Choose Boldly

To Accept Dear Mercy

And

Free Grace

And

Paid Pardon

And

Available Salvation

So That I May Forever

Live In Peace

Perfect Peace

In Paradise With You!

I Love You, Lord!

Please Have Mercy And Bless

For

I Ask All In The Great Name

Of

Jesus Christ The Righteous

My Savior, Lord And God!

AMEN!

But ... Not Enough
Is A Sure Fire Way
For The Sin Life
To Grab You By Your Neck The Scruff
UNTIL
As A Washout To Life
You Die
Or For Mercy
To The Living God
In Desperation
You
- In Abject Fear -
Well And Truly Cry!

You're Kind Of A Doom And Gloom

With Lettuce And Tomatoes Burger, Aren't You?!

How About A Little Bitty Ray Of Sunshine?!

Doom And Gloom-
Serves A Purpose
- As Does Sunshine -
In The Life!

Doom And Gloom Warns Us
To Get Up
ANDSunshine Says:

"Look Up!"

The Creator God
- Ever Merciful -
Is The Giver
The Sustainer
Of All Life!

If You Have No Bread, Friend
A Biscuit Will Always Suffice!

If You Have No Friend In Earth
Be Assured
Your Best Friend IS
The Author Of Life!

If You Have On Earth
No Hope
Look To The Lord Christ
In Whom Is Certain Hope
The Hope For Surpassing Glory
The Key To Which
You Will Find
In The Pages Of The Old
Ever New
Good News Story!

If You Have No Clothes To Wear
Jesus Christ Offers
- Straight From The Courts Of Heaven -
The Eternity Garment
Robe Of Righteousness
COLOR: White
Accessorized With
A Handcrafted Gold Crown
- Assured To Be Jeweled -
An Overcomer's Palm
AND
A Golden Harp
For To Play

Victory-Of-The-Redeemed-Ones' Sing-Along Song
AND

To Honor
Worship

ANDPraise
The Holy God
Through Whom

ANDBy Whom
Our Salvation Was Purchased

Was Even An Atom Long!

No Shelter?!

There Is Shelter
Under The Shadow
Of The Eternal's Wings
AND

There Is Always Room
For One More!
Call His Name!
To Him Cling!
Cling
- Like A Limpet -
AND
Under No Circumstance
Provocation

Or
Satanic Manipulation

Or

Demonic Device
Should You Let Go!

Go ... To God
Who Knows All
Who All Sees
Who Has All The Answers
For Which Your Hopeless

Helpless

Hungering

Heart Is Howling

Howling Crying!

Ask The Questions
Be Ye Standing
Sitting
Lying Prostrate
Or On Your Torn Knees!
The Almighty God
Gave His All
To Save Us All
From The Life Of Sin
- The Effect Of The Fall -
AND, SO

I Appeal To Us All
Don't Do A Witch-Run
Like The Very Foolish King Saul!

Become As One Wise

AND

Your End Will Be
Victorious
For You Will
- Before The King Glorious -
In Triumph
On The Great Day Stand!

Grace And Faith!
Love And Mercy!

AND
Hope For New Life In Christ
Gets One From The Blackness Of Darkness
AND
Into The Glorious Light
Of God's Gift
Of Eternal Life

Absent Mortal Strife!

I Shall
In My Mind
Park This ...

New Life ... In Christ

Is The Best Approach

Aka The Only Way

To Get Out

From Under

Satan's Thumb

And

The Sin Life

And

To Get To The Eternal Home!

I've Got Me A Home!

OPEN FOR WORSHIP: The Groves!

2 Kings 23:4-6 King James Version (KJV)

4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Bethel.

5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

6 And he brought out the grove from the house of the Lord, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.


There Is Nothing New
Under The Sun
So
There Is Nothing That I Say Here
That Should Any Body Surprise Or Stun!

The Groves Are Open For Worship!
Ashtoreth And Baal
Are Polished
And Shining Bright
AND
The Temple Prostitutes Are Open For Business
Early Morning
High Noon
And
Dark Night!

Hear The Barkers' Announcement:

Come One! 

Come All!

Get A Girl!

Get A Boy!

Whatever Your Tastes

We Have The Prostitute

In Our Employ

So

Do Not Let Your Self Be Bothered

By Your Gross Proclivity

Our gods Are All Inclusive

And

We Enthusiastically Welcome Every Body!

Dear Lord, 

Have Mercy On Your Faithful People!

"Hello,  There!
Won't You Stop In?
We Offer Great Cheer
And
Good Food
And
Good Drink
And Someone With Whom To Pleasantly Pair!
We Don't Follow The Old Landmarks!
We Feel And We Live!
Right Here And Right Now
Give Your Pledge
And Get Your Blessing
For Our gods Give Sweet Love ... And HOW!!"

"Sorry!
Can't Oblige You!
The Holy God Did Not Change
AND
I Chose To Walk In His Ways
To Achieve His Eternal Blessing
At The End Of All Earth's Days!"

"No!
I Can't Worship The Earth Mother!
No! I Don't Worship The Sun!
No! I Won't Worship The Elements
And I Don't Care If I'm Not Any Fun!"

"I Choose To Believe The Holy Word Of The Heavenly Father!
I Choose To Be Perfect In My Generation
Just Like God Told Noah Of His Generations In His Day
For I Want To Get On Board The Ark Of Salvation
And Not Be Cast Into The Fire And Brimstone Lake
Grave!"

"Get Thee Behind Me,  Satan!
You Can Shine As Brightly As You Want!
Your Truffles And Trifles Don't Impress Me
You Can't Offer Me Anything That I Need Or Want!"

"Jesus Christ Is The Captain
Of This Heart -  My Sailing Ship
And All That I Need Is Provided
For My Master's Tongue Is Not Nimble Glib!"

Thank You, Jesus

For Saving Me!

Thank You, Jesus

For Setting Me Free!

Thank You, Jesus

For Pointing Out The Holy Way

Please Help Me

On The Path True

Ever To Stay!

AMEN.

I'm Satisfied In The Lord Jesus Christ!

VESPERS: At The End Of The Sabbath - God's Eyes + Prayer: Lord, I need Your Blessing!

IF I was a decidedly evil person
I would be very afraid
To know that God's Eyes are watching
Every misdeed that I undertook!

But ...

As it is My Heart's Desire to stay Saved By Grace
By Doing and Being Good and
Walking Right by His Grace
I do not have to be afraid!
I am glad that God's Eyes are everywhere watching!
He is seeing Me, and it is all for My Good!

God's Eyes are indeed Everywhere
Beholding both The Evil and The Good
And because of His Good Record Keeping
He is writing a Story Book for Each and Every One of Us!

Please carefully choose The Book that He is Writing for You -
It will either Bless or Curse You 
For it will show Your Association with The Son or The Devil
When You Stand before God's Judgment Seat on The Great Day!

 PRAYER 

Lord, I need Your Blessing

 I need to Humble Stand

Ready, Willing and Able

To wear the White Robe and Gold Crown of

The Holy Son of Man!

Let Me walk on in Your Fellowship

Led by Your Holy Spirit Divine

AND, at The End of The Ages

Let Me Hear: "Child, Come! You Are Truly Mine!"

Until That Day, Dear Father

Keep Me in Your Care

Let Me Rest in Comfort

Knowing that You, Lord, are Always Near!

I know, Lord, that the Angels of Glory

Are guarding My Dear, Sweet, Rest

I ask that You let Me walk on e'er awakening

Happy, Free, Peaceful, Faithful and Blessed!

AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Iniquity Abounds

Iniquity abounds
Thou knowest that God frowns
Remember that at Noah's time people drowned
This time fire will rain down.

I get very frightened
When I hear people speak dismissively of God
They speak as though God is a Mock-man
And Satan is someone of whom one can be proud.

I feel my skin go clammy
I feel my eyes dilate
I tremble when I hear them speaking of Almighty God
With much disdain and real hate!

Oh, Lord, have mercy upon your people
The Minions of Hell are no more on a secret rampage
For those who should have been teaching Truth to the People
Have sold Believers and Seekers out for desire of food, fame and really high wage!

Lust of the Flesh
Lust of the Eye
The Pride of Life - Real strokes of genius
Tried and true - Satan tried them out on the Lord
Jesus quoted Satan The "It is Written" - he fled
Judas didn't - and he will be eternally dead.

As for me, I'm trying to get God's Holy Word inside this heart and head.

God's People!
Don't give up the Journey to Salvation
Don't lie down and play dead because of a setback that you felt
Was a deal breaker between you and The Great Creator!
God can will save you IF you go to Him in prayer, and confess, and repent.

Pray to God the Father in the Name of The Son - King Jesus
Go to Him under God The Holy Spirit's Agency
This Godhead ever abides
Don't believe Old Satan's lies
For Living Fire will consume those
Who choose Living The High Life instead of Eternal Life
Which comes from accepting Jesus' Sacrifice and not living for feelings, fun and favorite buys!

All told, That Day Coming will be Momentous!
Stupendous!
Glorious!
The Faithful Dead and Living will Rise!
The Not Rising Up will cry and die
After saying: "He IS Real, and we are not saved!"
But it will be ... too late
For
High Flown Knowledge Education cost them Eternal Life -
They chose Satan for their Forever Date Mate.
