Win At Salvation By Failing At Sin!








Obedience, Trust, And Surrender 
Are Three Of The Hardest Concepts For Us To Wrap Our Minds Around 
And
Put Into Action On A Consistent Basis 
To Make A Real, Visible, Difference In Our Lives! 

Beloved, 

To Obey Our Lord Christ
We Must First Trust Him 
And
In Order To Trust Him And Obey
We Must Surrender Ourselves 
And
Our Sin 
Before 
We Are Willing To Walk In His Holy Way! 

We Often Hear That "Hallelujah!" 
Is 
The Highest Praise! 

Well, Obedience 
Is 
The Highest Form Of Worship! 

We Often Hear That Imitation 
Is 
The Highest Form Of Flattery! 

Well, Living For And Like Jesus Christ 
Is 
Letting The Whole World Know That 
We Are On The Lord's Side 
And That 
We Have Taken Him For Our Everlasting Portion! 
This Is Love ... Not Flattery! 

Be Warned! 

There Is No Everlasting Portion For 
Disobedient, Distrustful
Battling-Against-Truth Sinners! 

Please Do Not Be Fooled 
By The Antics And Rhetoric Of The Worldly-Wise! 

Surrendering Sin And Self To The Savior 
Is Not 
The Sweet Treat For Sappy Saints Seeking Salvation! 

Surrendering To Jesus Christ 
Is 
The Boldest, Most Courageous
Most Beneficial Act Of Winning Warfare That 
Any Of Us Will Ever Perform On This Side Of Glory! 

People Who Think That They Are Important 
May Call You Sottish Aka Foolish: 
Let Them! 

Please Choose To Surrender, Obey
And 
Unerringly, Enduringly Trust The Lord 
And
Be Perfectly Sure That 
You Will Spend The Eternity Of Bliss In The Great Reward 
With Jesus Christ The King! 

The Trusting, Faithful, Obedient, Enduring
Surrendered Saints 
Win At Salvation By Failing At Sin! 

Peace!

Faithful Man?!




In The Tribe Called Mankind
In The Family Called Friend
In The Household Called Christian
In The Man Called Faithful
Was Sin!
Bold Sin
Willful Sin
Death-Dealing Sin
AND
All Without Justification!

Come On!
There Is Never Any Justification For Sin!

You Know That 
And I Know That
BUT
There Is A Point To Be Made Here!

Okay. I Await Edification!

Those Old Hebrews
- The Christian Family Of Today -
Had A Work To Do
AND
They Were Given Instructions Most Clear:

Go To Jericho
The Abominable Estate
Where Gross Challenge
To The Eternal God
Is Wittingly Exercised
AND
Level It!
Level It!
Level It To The Ground!
And Don't Mess Around!

Only Rahab 
The God-Believing Helpful Harlot
- For True-Hearted Help -
AND
Her Family In Her House
Would Could
Walk Through Safety's Promised Door!

Everything Else Breathing
Was Marked For Death!
Everything Else Was Marked 
For Burning's Hot Breath
AND
What Could Not Be Burned
- Gold Silver Copper Iron -
Was To Be Dedicated
To The Use Of God's Temple
As A Sacrifice To The Holy God!
In Short,
No Man Shall Grease His Own Palm!
Yes! That Was The Specified Plan!

But ...

As We Too Often Hear And See
Some Greedy Gus
Is Always Stealing
And Hiding The Loot Under Stuff
Inside And Under The Floor Of His Canopy
AND
Causing The Apparently Innocent
To Pay For The Temporarily Concealed
Guilty!

But Know This ...

The Living God
Is The Keeper
Of ALL Doors!
AND
You
Me
Nor We 
Can Build A Sound House
With Level Floors
IF
We Are Building On That Other Foundation
That The Living God Will Not Secure!

So Much To Do! 

So Little Time! 

If Man Will Take In Wisdom's Education
Life On This Earth
Following The Faithful Shepherd
The Holy God
Will Be Perfectly Sublime! 

But ...

What Is Your Point, Again!

Go Bold
AND
Do As YOU Are Told!
No Arms In Disobedience Should YOU Fold!
No Steps Taken
Should Be Other Than Those Prescribed
AND
YOU Will Achieve Heaven's Tried Gold!

I Feel You, Man!
I Feel You!
Give Me Your Hand!

Wrong Doing
May Be Hidden From Man ... For A Time!
BUT
The All-Seeing Ever-Present God
Sees What You Are Doing 
Every Single Time!
