The Law And The Prophets Preach The Gospel! + PRAYER: Lord, I Desire The Gift Of Life ...!


The Law Was To Man Strict Justice!
The Prophets Told Man's History In Advance
AND
The Gospels Tell The Good News Of
Man's Purchased Salvation
AND
The Free Grace
Given Unto The Fallen Race
By The Son Of God
The Son Of Man
Who Took Unto Himself ... Our Flesh
So That By Faith
With Love ... And Obedience
Trust And Heartfelt Worship
We Will Receive Of His Holy Spirit!
Of His Love To Us, There Is No Limit!

Don't You Know That ...

Those Who Love The Lord
Do Not Obey The Law To Be Saved!
They Obey The Law
Because 
They Are Saved
AND
Being Unwilling
To Crucify The Loving Savior Afresh
They Choose Not To Be Led By Their Flesh!

There Is Law At The Beginning!
AND
There Is Grace At The End
But 
Neither Cancels Out The Other
Because 
The Living God Changes Not
AND, THEREFOREHis Righteous Law Cannot
So
To Meet God
We Have To Be Raised Up
Or Be Forever Lost!

Note Well ...

History Foretold That
The Deliverer Would Come
AND
The Gospels Plainly Speak
Telling Of His Life
His Unfailing Love For Man
His Never-Ending Blessing Upon Man
His Priceless Gift To Man
His Accursed Death Because Of Man
His Stunning Resurrection To Save Man
AND
His Visible Ascension
AND
High-Priestly Intercession For Man
AND
His Soon Coming To Earth Again
To Claim His Own
Out Of The Hand Of Satan
The Snare Of Every Man!
Satan Is Damned!

From Genesis To Revelation
Is 
Jesus Christ All The Way
AND
One Without The Other
To Give Man Short Pay
For
All The Books Of The Testament Old
AND
The Testament New
Meet
In The Book Of Revelation At The End
AND
Finish The Whole Story Of How 
The Life Of Man Shall End
When He Makes Almighty God's Son
The Creator God
- The Savior -
His Redeemer
Who Offers
- Who Gives -
Life
AND
That Without End!

It Is Time, Brethren
For Us, Sincerely
The Life With Jesus Christ
To Humbly
Unceasingly Defend!

Jesus Christ Bore His Cross!
Our Sin Made The Cross Members!
He Asks Us
To Take Up Our Cross
- Daily -
And
Follow Him!

PRAYER:

Father,
I Willingly Take Up My Cross Today!
I Will Bear It
For
I Know That You Carry Me
Every Single Day!

I Know That Sometimes
My Heart At The Burden
Is Not Well Pleased
But
Be It Kicking Or Screaming
Crying And Complaining
I Will To Follow
Where You Lead
And
I Beseech You, Lord
To Keep Me On The Right Path
Until I Fully
Finally
Accept
That You Know Best
And
I, By Your Daily Grace
With My Gift Of Daily Faith
Choose To Calmly, Peacefully
Faithfully
Unreservedly
Follow My Lord Christ
To The Eternal City
Wherein Is Everlasting Life!

Lord,
Please Help Me To Keep The Faith
And
Stay The Course
For
I Desire The Gift Of Life
And
That Without End
With
My Jesus
My Forever Friend
In Whose Holy Name
I, Believing
Loving, Trusting
Worshipping
Pray!
I Love You, Lord!
AMEN.

Man's Favorite Pursuits



Man's Favorite Pursuits



She is ever the sensualist
He lives by all his greed
They are so very ambitious
And very proud indeed!


She is ever so puffed up
He is a stuffed-shirt by his creed
They complement each other
Love of money is their speed!


She's selfish, he's miserly
Both dishonest to boot
They fear no law nor justice
Will not fear to shoot!


Prayer? Bible? Believer? Jesus who?
When did you say we were introduced?
Then Put Him on the speed dial
We'll call Him if we need a boost!


Pride! Greed! Gluttony! Sloth!
Lust! Envy! And Wrath!
They indulge in them all
And, yes! Then they laugh!


Who cares what others think!?
We live for ourselves!
Why must you always butt in?
Who let you through our chain link?


They lived their lives like hedonists
Nothing to recommend them
But like the rich man with Lazarus
They're only fit to condemn!


It was only when in review
Their lives looked back in
That they recognized with horror
How foolish they'd been!


Those that they'd ill-treated
Those they'd robbed blind
Those they'd had wrongly punished
They now begged to be kind!


Alas, it's too late
You're no friend of ours
You despised us and you cursed the Lord!
Yes! THAT King Jesus!


No! We cannot help you!
There's enmity, there is envy, no love between
You sinners and the Savior
Oh, look! The opening scene!


The sky is unfurling
Rolling back as a scroll
Look! There! Upon a white horse,
With many crowns, is the Lord!


The graves are opening wide
Saints alive with the dead-in-Christ rise high
To meet our Savior in the sky!
Sinners, prepare to die!
I'm sorry!
Goodbye! **BJC**


Dear Friends:
Lest you think that Christians will gloat at the loss of the wicked, think again!


The Lord has said in His Word that it is not His wish that any should perish. So, far be it from the truth for us as HIS children – who choose to obey – to rejoice over those who are, or will be, lost. Let us, therefore, redouble our efforts to help prepare a people to meet the King.


Let us, if we can't preach, pray for, cook, feed, clothe, visit,
and love our brothers and sisters into the Kingdom.
