What Looks Good On The Devil's Rack ...!

 

At The Blessed Storehouse Of The Ages 
Owned And Operated 
Maintained And Sustained By Jesus Cares
Cost-You-Less And More-For-Less 
Are Not Labels Accepted Or Displayed Among 
What Are Known As  Great Goods For One Solitary Reason: 
Satan Is The Manufacturer
His "Dummy" Corporation Is Called Sin
And 
Destruction Is His To-Die-For Brand! 

Dear Ones, 

Sin Does Not Give Second Chances: 
Salvation Does! 

The Way Out Of Sin 
Is
Through The Door Called Faith Works
And 
It Is Those Who Choose To Walk Simply
Kindly, Justly, Obediently, And Enduringly 
Who Will, By Free Grace, Turn The Handle Called 
Available Mercy
And 
Walk On Through The Door To Eternal Life! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Let Us Remember Today That 
What Looks Good On The Devil's Rack 
Does Not Look Good ... Or Wear Well
On Your Christ-Died-For-You Back! 

Jesus Cares Is Good For You Now And For Always! 

Live For The Life-Giver: 
Know Your Value In Christ Jesus! 

Peace!

Walk Wise!






Empty Vessels Make The Most Noise! 
A Broken Bulb Sheds No Light! 
An Unopened Bible Cannot Teach! 
An Unasked Question Cannot Be Answered! 
Neglecting Talking To The Lord 
Is 
To Refuse The Choicest Of Blessings!

 Beloved, 

Why Would You Sit Down With Those Who Scorn The Gospel
Those Who Are As Broken Cisterns Holding A Bit Of Tainted Water
Those Who Are Like White-Washed Tombs 
Holding The Remains Of The Dead 
Aka The Putrid Purrings Lies, Conceits And Deceits Of Satan 
When You Are Invited To Walk With The Lord
In The Living Holy Light Of His Blessed Word!?! 

We Are Individuals, Unique, Precious, Loved, Desired, Called! 
Jesus Christ The Righteous 
Is 
The Anchor For Our Souls 
And 
We Are Invited To Dock Our Ships 
In The Sheltered Berth That He Has Provided! 

We Are Invited To Experience His Gift To Us Of The New Birth
The New Life
By Permitting Him To Get Rid Of Our Old Man
Our Old Life
Our Known Unprofitable Ways! 

We Are Nothing Without The Lord Christ! 
We Are Everything When We Are Buried In Him: 
He Is Life! 

Be Encouraged! 
Resurrection Day Is Just Up Ahead! 

I Sincerely Pray The Lord That 
We Shall See Each Other Robed In White 
On That Great And Glorious Day! 

Brethren Beloved,

Deny Self! 
Reject Sin! 
Walk Wise! 
Embrace Truth! 
Be Faithful! 
Pray Without Ceasing! 
Live For Jesus!
 
Peace!

Godly Understanding Is A Free Gift From Almighty God!







Are The Eyes Of Your Understanding Sighted Or Blinded!?! 

What Do You Want To Understand!?! 

What Do You Want To See!?! 

What Are You Choosing To Cast A Blind Eye Toward!?! 

Why Would Any Christian Choose Willful Ignorance 
Over Illuminated Understanding!?! 

Beloved, 

We Live In A World Where Having An Understanding Heart
And
Being Able To See Another's Point Of View 
Without Anger And Hatred 
And
Choosing To Stand Firm In The Faith Of Jesus Christ 
Makes One A Pariah ... An Outcast
And 
An Enemy To The Multitude 
But
It Is No Reason To Deny Your Faith ... The Most Holy Faith
Nor Ignore 
And 
Denigrate Your Father In Heaven! 

With The Wisdom Of The Living God 
Comes Understanding To Use The Knowledge That 
The Lord Has Generously Placed At Our Disposal 
To Bless Ourselves 
And 
Most Definitely Others! 

Think About It ... 

Understanding To Do Evil Is Useless
But
Understanding To Do Good And Right 
Aka The Things Of Jesus Christ The Lord 
Is 
Perfectly Priceless! 

Godly Understanding 
Is 
A Good And Perfect Free Gift From Our Almighty God 
So Don't Bastardize It By Shutting Out The Light Of Life 
To Willfully Do Evil! 

Please Understand That 
Once You Are Made Aware Of Truth 
And
You Choose To Ignore Truth 
In Order To Indulge Error
You Are Guilty Of Sin! 

Godly Understanding Is Infinitely Free 
But 
Willful Ignorance 
Is 
Grossly Expensive! 

I Encourage Us All
To Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Free Salvation! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Wedded Bliss ... In Christ Jesus!

Today Is The Day That
Clear Thoughts And Receptive Heart
Become Engaged!
The Wedding Will Immediately Follow!

The Journey To Truth Has Been Long
And
The Road To Righteousness Hard! 
They Had Been Running With The Big Dogs
Serious Doubts
Superficial Knowledge 
Clear Contradictions
And
Questions On Scriptural Harmony

Until 

They Met Willing To Try
Searching The Scriptures
And
Hidden Treasure!

They Had Struck Gold
And
Had Found Pearls Of Wisdom
Truth For Today
Courage For The Way
Blessings Innumerable
And
Prayer Is The Way!

They Had Then Received 
The Living Word In Faith
And
No Surprise
It Gave Them Power To Obey
Because
They Desired Christ
And
They Desired To Follow Jesus
Wherever He Would Lead Them:
They Are At The Foot Of The Cross
And
Are Blessed By The Crimson Stream!




Stumbling Blocks Abound ...

The Way Is Not Easy
And
The Detractors Are Not Kind
But
The Blessings Are Immeasurable ... Innumerable 
Because
Their Now-Master 
Is 
The Holy God Divine! 




  
The Testimony ... 

We Were Once Amongst The Unwise
But
We, For Love
With Hope
In Faith
And
Desiring Spiritual Prosperity
Chose ... Choose 
The Life Of Jesus Christ! 

The Lofty, Worldly, Knowledge 
And 
Base Understanding Beloved Of Fallen Man 
Is 
Foolishness To God 
Because 
It Causes Us ... Unwisely
Not To Fear Our Maker
Aka Hold The Almighty In Godly Fear!

The Word Of God, Alone, Is Wise 
And 
That Wisdom Leads The Willing
The Obedient
The Faithful
To Eternal Life In And With The Lord Christ! 

Having Godly Fear ... Awe
Protects Us From Saying 
With The "Understanding" Of The Fool: 

"There Is No God!" 

Brethren, 

We Urge All To Believe Plain Truth! 
We Urge Us All To Be Wise Unto Salvation! 
Be Faithful Until Death
And
Most Assuredly 
You Shall Be Eternally Blessed! 

Remember, Beloved, 
Gainsaying Is For Gulls! 
Gluttony For Punishment Is For Goats! 
Blessings Belong To Believers
And
Loving The Trinkets Of Sin
Is 
Like The Black Bird Benefiting From 
His Stolen Bright Beads And Baubles:
He Can't Eat Them
But
To Let Them Go He Is Loathe! 

Please Pay Attention... 

Doing The Lord's Bidding Always Pays! 

The Palm 
And
The Cedar
Are Metaphors For The Christian Life!

The Palm Survives In The Desert ... Of Sin
By Sending Forth Deep, Deep, Roots
Into The Water Of Life
In The Desert Sand Beneath Him!

The Cedar ... Fragrant
Loves Water
Lives In Rock
Wedged There By Roots Deep
Unmoveable
Unshakeable
Not Uprootable
Despite The Allurements
Around About
Despite The Sounds
The Laughter Of ... The Merry Man

Who Raucously Shouts!

Harpies Howl
And
Devils Deceive
But
These Two Trees
Do Not Congregate With Salvation Thieves
Shallow, Hollow
Shifty, Uncertain!

They Know That This Life
Has The Last Day
Last Show Curtain!

These Two Trees Stand Against The Odds
Because
The Life Of Christ
- Their Life In Christ -
Is 
The Sin-Break
Their Shelter
And
Against Sin 
The Block-Out Curtain:
With Jesus Christ
Eternal Life Is Certain!

Palm Trees Produce Bread And Oil
And
Mark Where In The Desert Is Life!
Cedar Repels Vermin
And
Provides Shelter For All Who Will Believe
And
Follow The Master
Away From Damnation's Disaster!

Brethren, 

Our True Friend Is Jesus!
Our Hope Is In Christ The Lord!
Take The Step Of Trust
On The Walk Of Faith
And
Let Grace Extend The Hand Of Mercy
As You Choose To Live According To The Instructions 
In The Good News Gospel Story! 
For Enduring Faith
You Shall Surely Share In The Master's Glory!

Believe The Word! 
Trust The Sacrifice! 
Bask In The Love! 
Endure All Things! 
Live With Hope
And
Rest In Jesus Christ's Peace
And Soon
We, Working, Watching, Waiting, Faithful
Shall Be At Home With Him
In His Realm
In Eternity! 

Brethren, 

From Sin, Flee
And
Jesus Christ
By The Holy Spirit Of Truth
The Comforter
Our True Teacher
Will Succor Thee
And
The Holy Angels
Excelling In Strength
And
Providing Good Influence
Will Always Protect Thee!
Salvation Is Free!
