VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Holy Spirit's Call

I Bless Myself Every Day ...!

Now, Really!
How Can YOU Bless Yourself
When Blessings Come From The Living God!?!

If You Had Not Cut Me Off, Pretti Pearson
You Would Have Come To Hear Me Say That
I Bless Myself Every Day By My Choosing
To Believe That The God Of Heaven Is God Almighty
That Jesus Christ Is Savior, Lord And King
That His Word Is Alive And Working
That His Promises Are Sure And Secure
And
Are Even Now Performing
And 
That My Life Is His
Because
My Name Is Indelibly Engraved On The Palm Of His Hand!

I Choose To Accept That 
I Live By Him 
And 
I Must Labor For Him!

I Choose To Walk Wise 
And 
Ignore Satan's Bold Lies!

I Choose To Humble Myself
So That The Lord Doesn't Have To Humble Me
And
In Faith
I Choose To Fall Upon The Rock Of Ages To Be Broken
So That By Him I May In His Reckoning
Be Made Eternally Whole!!

It Sure Took You Long Enough To Wise Up!

Time And Seasons, Sweet Girl!
Time And Seasons!

You Know, I Often Wonder About Those
- Like The Procurator Felix -
Who Truly Know The Truth For The Time Now Present ...!

... But Are "Waiting For A More Convenient Season!?!"

I Honestly Believe That Those Are
The Most Dangerous Words
A Human Can Ever Utter In Relation
To His Own Soul's Salvation!

Tomorrow Is Not Promised!

True, But I Believe It Is Worst Than That!

Really!
What Can Be Worst That Dropping Down Dead!?!

Think About This:

We All Know From The Living Word That
Tomorrow, Truly, Is Not Promised
And, Yet 
Wicked Men Seem To Live Forever And A Day
Behaving Like Time
- You Can't Save Time
Or Borrow Time
But You Can Spend Time - 
Is 
On Their Side
And, Presumptuously 
Telling The Lord
- Actually The Spirit Of The Living God -
By Whom They Would Be Sealed 
Against The Great And Dreadful Day
To ... Wait On Them
To Not ... Bother Them At That Time
To Come Back To Them ... Later ...!

.. At The More Convenient Time That Never Comes ...!

... Not Recognizing That
The Most Convenient Time Is Always Now
In The Currently Available Present Moment
When You Are Hearing The Holy Spirit's Gentle Call!

They Don't Understand That 
You Can Only Answer The Holy Spirit
When He Is Calling Out To You
And 
Not When They Feel To Call Out To Him!

I Hope That You Have Scripture To Back That Up!

Isn't That How We Always Roll!?!

Very Well!
Present Your Evidence!

If People Feared The Lord
The Would Answer The Lord's Call
When They Hear Him Calling Them
And
Not As And When They Feel Like It
So Let's Start With Proverbs 1:7:

 
Everybody Has That Terminal Decision To Make:
Answer The Call And Live Forever With Jesus
Or Ignore The Call And Ultimately Perish With Satan

And 

Just So We All Know That
The Almighty God Good Means What He Says
Consider The End Of Israel's First Worldly Ruler
King Saul, The Disobedient
Who Chose Self
Self-Satisfaction 
Self-Aggrandizement
And
The Available
Supposed Convenience Of Accursed Witchcraft 
Over Assuredly Blessed-Forever Obedience
And
Free To All 
And 
Presently Available Soul Salvation!

Oh, My!
You Make A Really Good Point!
His End Was Fearful
And It Was At His Own Appointing!

True, True!
The Lord Laid The Framework For The Good Life!
King Saul Chose Otherwise!

The Lord Calls Us All To Obedience
Because No Man Can Save Himself
No Matter What Satan Tells Him By Practiced Lies!

The Lord Gives Us All A Work To Perform
To Bless Ourselves 
And To Glorify His Holy Name
And All With His Promised, Blessed, Outcome Attached!

These Are All Good Points!
This, In A Nutshell, Then
Is What The Holy, Living, Word Of God Says:

Go Where I Send You!

Do What I Say!

Answer When I Call You!

Seek Ever To Obey!

I Do Not Call You To Annoy You!

I Call You To Bless You And To Save!

I Call You To Make Your Life Holy, Prosperous

And To Remove You From Being

Sin And Self's Slave!

My Call To Man Is Not Indefinite!

Every Day Has Its Appointed End!

Please Answer

In The Hour, The Minute, The Moment:

Do Not Ignore Your Call-To-Salvation Day!

Be Humble!

Be Constant!

Submit To The Holy Spirit!

Be Instant In Pray!

I Will Your Every Burden Bear!
I Am Calling You!

Answer "Yes!", I Beseech You, Beloved!

Answer Your Personal Call To Everlasting Life

Today!

The Bottom Line ...

In The Way Of The World

If You Play With A Kitty

You Will Get Scratched

And

The Pain Of Same Is Unmatched!

In The Way To Heaven

- To Surpassing Glory -

Your Playing

With Your Own Soul's Free Gift Of Salvation

Will See Your Name

** From The Book Of Life Of The Lamb **

Being Scratched!

Christ's Glory

- With Us To Be Shared -

Is Unmatched!

This Is An Indelible, Incontrovertible, Fact!

IT'S DEEP: The Love Of God

Two Gardens
Two Adams
One First ... One Last!
One Test
Two Participants
One An An Abject Failure
The Other A Resplendent Pass!

Eden Garden .. Adam
Garden Gethsemane ... Jesus Christ
Both Were Troubled
By The Demon Not Nice
Lucifer Gone Rogue
Turned Satan
The Mortal Enemy Of Souls!

Adam The First, Assailed
Took The Test And Failed!
Adam The Last, Assaulted
Took The Test
And
At The Ultimate Showdown
Bruised The Head Of
The Snake In The Grass
The Heel Biter
The Piercing Serpent
Leviathan
Behemoth
The Accuser Of The Brethren
The Enemy Of Souls
And
Ascended On High
Triumphant
Having That Death-Dealing Test
Well And Truly Passed!

Satan Has Been, By Truth
Totally, Totally, Outclassed
And
There Is A Non-Refundable 
Inescapable 
Unwanted Burning In His Future
For The Maliciously Evil Things 
He Is Doing In The Time Called Present
And
For What Was Done In Millenia Of His Sordid Past!

The Truth Must Be Told ...

Adam The First Looked At Self
But
Adam The Last Looked At Sin
And
Solemnly Said:

You Shall Not My Children Hold Fast!

I Shall Sacrifice My Self For Their Sin

And

You Shall Become A Thing Of The Past!

Your Inflicted Sorrow Shall Not For Eternity Last

For My Children Shall Upon Me

Their Sin-Burden Cast!

My Love For Them Knows No Bounds

Because

It Is Eternity Vast!

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

Jesus Christ Paid It All!

Brethren, Beloved

We Have In All Of Us

The Nature Of Adam The First

But

Because Of The Love And Sacrifice Of

Adam The Last

And

His Mercy And Grace

And

Our Willing Confession 

And 

Repentance Of Known Sin

We Have The Gift Of Forgiveness

And

The Right To Life

If

We Choose To Believe The Promise Given

In The Shed Blood Of Adam The Last

Aka Jesus Christ The Righteous

The King Of Love

The Lord Of Glory

The Creator Of Heaven And Earth

Our Surety And Security

The Sacrifice That Saves Us

The Redeemer Of The Brethren

Our Hope For Passing Glory

The Only Begotten Of The Father

The Hope Of Every Man

Our Blessedness!

There's Only One Path To Life ...

Please Don't Be Bold In Sin

And

Timid In The Admission

And

Confession And Repentance For Same!

Jesus Christ Saves To The Uttermost

So ...

Believe And Live

Because We Have These Promises  ...

With The Lake Of Fire!
By The Eternal God's Grace

I Shall See His Funeral Pyre!

Eternal Love

Where Sin Shall Arise No More!

Jesus Christ Is The Gift-Giver

And

Jesus Christ Is The Sin Cure

And

In Him

We Are Made Pure

So

On Sin

By Faith

For Love Of Him Who Saves

Let Us Here And Now Shut The Door!

Heaven ... For The Pure

At The Last Trumpet's Sound

Is

Sure!

The Living God Is Not Into Fashion Nor Trends + PRAYER: Father, I See My Need!

The Word Of The Lord
Is
Sealed And Settled In Heaven
So I See No Good Reason Why I Shouldn't
Take The Word Of The Living God Literally!

You Must Be Mad!

Times Change!
People Change ...!

... But The Living God Is The Same
Yesterday
Today And Forever!

The Eternal God 
Is Not 
A Man That He Should Lie
Or Be Fickle
Or Be Driven And Tossed 
According To The Winds Of Change
On A Stormy Sea!

Whatever!
You Need To Wise Up
And Get With The Program! 

Physician!

Heal Thyself! 

The Eternal Word Says In Luke 4:4

And

In Luke 8:11, It Says 

Seeds Can't Change!
An Apple Is An Apple
A Pear Is A Pear
An Ackee Is An Ackee
A Hog Plum Is a Hog Plum! 

Yada, Yada! 

You're Obviously Not Keeping Up With The Times!
I Have A Code Word For You: Genetic Engineering!
Everything ... Including Seeds
Can Be "Fixed"
To Do More
Change Self
Improve Others! 

I'm Very Sorry For You!
Who Needs A Chameleon For A God!?!
Who Needs Fruit Punch For The Gospel!?!

You're Worshipping At The Altar Of Change And Decay

But
We Of The Household Of Faith

Know And Accept That

Change And Decay

Sin And Sinners

And

The Master Chameleon Himself

Are Headed For The Lake Of Fire! 

Simply Put

You Have An Unsettled Mind

And

An Unsettled Mind Is Dangerous To Self And Others
And
The Need For Constant Change
Instant Gratification
Thrills
And
Never Ending Feels
Places You Squarely In Satan's Domain
Primed And Packaged
And
Tied Up In Shiny Chains!

You Say That You Believe
But, Then 

You Model The Fact That
You Have Not Come To
The Conclusion Of The Whole Matter!

If You Truly Believed Almighty God's Living Word
You Would Know Not To Mess With It
Adding And Subtracting From It
To Appease Your Carnal Monster!

You'd Know That There Is A Curse Attached 

To Adding And Subtracting From The Word!

Look, Bayley!

I'm Not Here To Give You A Hard Time!

I Just Wish That You'd Recognize

What A Friend We Have In Jesus

Who Does Our Griefs And Burdens Bear!

I Sincerely Wish That You Will Come To Know

What A Privilege We Have

Because

We Can Take Our Burdens

Our Sins

Our Sorrows

Our Hurts

Our Shame

With Just A Humble Offering

To The Living Lord ... In Prayer!

How Dare You Say That I'm Proud!?!

What!?! 

Excuse Me!?!

All I Said To You Was

Take A Humble Offering Of Prayer To God!

Oh, Never Mind!

Bayley, Pride Got Satan Cast Out Of Heaven! 

Please Don't Let Pride Keep You Out Of Heaven! 

I'm Not Proud! 

I'm Not ... PROUD! 

I Don't Have To Tell You That You're Proud! 

You Know Of A Surety That You're Proud

But

I Am Beseeching You

To Humble Yourself Under The Mighty Hand Of God

So That He Will Lift You Up

In His Time

In His Way

According To His Sovereign Will For You!

There Is No Blessing

- Just A Hard Fall -

For Those With A Proud And Haughty Spirit!

You Know That Our Creator Humbled Himself

Giving Up His Glory

His Honor

His Praise

To Come Down To Our Level

- Your Level - 

To Raise Us Up To His Level
And

We Should Be Able To Humble Ourselves Before Him

Because Of His Sacrifice

And 
Reach Out And Take The Extended Hand

Which Did All The Work

So That We May Reap The Rapturous Sweets!

I Like Sweet Things!

Jesus Christ Is Offering Us 
The Best Kind That We're Told Off

And

Greatest Of All

He Has A Myriad Precious And Sweet Blessings 
Prepared For Us That

Man's Eyes Have Not Yet Seen

Nor Has Man's Ears Ever Heard The Story!

I Like New Things And Different Experiences!

Girl, Let Me Tell You Something! 

If You Truly Want New ... And Exclusive Things

And

Different ... Extraordinary

Life-Changing

Mind-Expanding

Spirit-Ennobling Experiences

Which Lead To That Place Where The Eternal God Resides

- Who Created Us And Painted The Rainbow

Which Stands Above His Throne

In The Land Where Glory Rolls

And

The Streets Are Paved With Purest Gold

And

Gold Crowns Are Every-Day Wear

Where Care Cannot Live There

And

Mansions Are In The Father's House

Where, For Us Who Will Jesus' Joy Share

Are Being Prepared - 

I Implore You To Try Jesus Christ

The Joy Of Living

The Richest And Most Loving Caring

Giving Blessing Friend

You Can Ever Know!

It Will Cost You
But
The Return On The Investment Is Immeasurable!

He Sees Everything! 

He Feels Everything! 

He Knows Everything

And

He's Always Available

Always Present!

I Need A Friend Like That!

So Did I

And

I Found Him

And

So Can You!

Give Him A Call! 

Utter A ... 

... Humble Prayer ...! 

PRAYER:

Father,

I Now Truly See My Need!

I Need You! 

Please Help Me To Humble Myself

So That I May Arrive At That Place

Where I Am Never Alone

Where I Am Blessed And Loved

Where I Am Daily Face To Face

With Christ ... My Savior

In Whose Name

Because Of Present And Available Grace

And

Always Free Mercy

I ... Now Humble ... Do Gladly Plead! 

AMEN. 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Eternal God Loves You, Personally!

Almighty God Loves Me ... Personally!

That's Nice!

He Loves You, Personally, As Well!

Is That Right!?!

Yes, It Is!

How Do You Know That To Be The Truth!?!

John 3:16 In My Trusty Old King James Says It Plainly!

Okay.

You Don't Sound Very Convinced To Me!

I Will Not Tell A Lie!
I'm Not! ... Really!

Let Me Holler At You ...

I Love Peppermint
And
I Have Just One Peppermint!
I Was About To Open It For A Treat!
You Start Coughing And Ask Me If I Have A Peppermint!
I Have A Want!
You Have A Visible Need!
I Make An Informed Call!
I Leave Out Myself And I Give My Only
And
Cherished Peppermint 
To You!

Do I Love You Or Not!?!

That Doesn't Prove A Thing!
You May Have Just Felt Sorry For Me!
You Were Just Being Kind!

That Is Exactly The Attitude Of Ungrateful Humans
To Jesus Christ The Righteous
The Most Precious Given Unto Us
By Almighty God!

Excuse Me!?!

If You Really Saw And Acknowledged Your Need
You Would Realize That Jesus Christ Is The Perfect Gift
Who Keeps On Giving ... For Eternity!

Father God
Did Not Have To Give His Only Son To Save
A Bunch Of Ungrateful Dust Bunnies!
He Is Almighty 
And
He Could Have Wiped The Slate Aka Earth, Clean
But
He Loved, Loves, Us With An Everlasting Love
And
Recognizing That There Was, Is, Nothing Of Ourselves
That Could Remove From Our Persons
The Damning Stain Of Sin
He Chose To Give Of His Everlasting Love
To Save Us From Our Own Sin!

But That's Like The Head Teacher Spanking Himself
For A Beloved Student's Bad Behavior!

I Could Kiss You!
You Are Absolutely Brilliant!

What Was That Verse Again!?!

John 3:16

For God
(From The Beginning)
So Loved The World
(The All-Encompassing Love Is Holy And Divine)
That He Gave
(To The Fallen And Cursed World ... Willingly)
His Only Begotten Son
(There Is No More "Blood" Progeny In God's House)
That Whosoever Believeth On Him
(Every Man's Got To Willingly Choose To Believe That He Is)
Shall Not Perish
(The Wages Of Known Sin Is Certain Death)
But Have Everlasting Life!
(Jesus Christ Bought And Paid For
And Promises Us A Forever Life In His Father's House)!

If That Isn't Love
I Don't Want To Know
I Have No Desire To Know What Else Could Be!

I Never Considered It Like That!

Maybe It's Time That All Of Us Do See It Like That!
If We Don't, We Are In For An Eternity Of Hurt
Aka Eternal Separation From Almighty God!

Indeed!
The Fate Worse Than Death!

I Never Knew That There Was A Fate Worse Than Death!

Well, Brother, You Know Now!

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

The Gift Of Love Is Precious!
The Giver Of The Gift Is Almighty God
Who Gave His Beloved Son To Save Our Souls
From Sin And The Second Death
Which Is Eternal Separation From 
The True And Living Eternal Holy God!

The Gift Of Love Costs Us Nothing!
The Gift Cost Our Father In Heaven 
The Only Begotten Son
And All Who Will To Be Forever Saved
Must Turn To The Righteous Son
In Total Adoration
And Thereby Give That Wicked Old Satan None!

The Holy Gift Is The True Blessing

To All Who Will Believe Holy Truth

And

Deny The Bold Liar

Whose Sworn Task Is To Mankind Deceive

Into Sin And Bold Rebellion

To Hate And Not To Love

So That They Will Be Damned As He Is

Because

They Won't Recognize Until It Is Too Late

That They Will Suffer His Just And Known Fate!

Let No Created Being Deceive You
Nor Rob You Of Your Gift Of Love:
Eternal Life In The Glorious Courts
In Highest Heaven Above!

The Word Of Truth Is Your Road Map!
The Good Shepherd Of Rest Is Your Guide!
The Holy Angels Are Your Strong Guardians
And 
The Holy Spirit Is Your Comforter Inside!

Bless Almighty God, My Brothers And Sisters!
Bless Almighty God Who Thinks On Me And You!
Bless God Who Has An Eternal Home In Glory
And
Bless The Lord Christ Who Preparing A Place There
Just For Me!
Just For You!
