MAN MUST MAKE HIS OWN DECISION: The Trumpet Shall Sound And ...!

Every Man, Woman, Child

Must His Own Decision Make!

We ... Of The Household Of Faith

We're Listening For The Lord Of Life's Lone Trumpet! 

True, But Most Of The Nations' People Are Listening 

To The Enthralling, Encompassing, Orchestral Arrangement Of 

The Lost And Dying World!

We Do Not Dress, Walk
Or The Same Language Speak
For Their Customs And Practices Of 

Satan's Stench

Does Overwhelmingly Reek!

The Lord Said: 

"Don't!" 
Satan Says: 

"Do!"

The Lord Says: 

"Sanctify Yourself!" 
Satan Says: 

"Satisfy The Royal We!"

The Lord Says: 

"Confess, And Of Known Sin, Repent!" 
Satan Says: 

"Fornicate, Adulterate, Abominate
For You Will Soon Have Another Lent!"

The Lord Says: 

"Guard Your Heart!" 
Satan Says: 

"Let Everyone His Own Heart Regard!"

The Lord Says: 

"Invite The Holy Spirit
Your Daily Life To Lead!"
Satan Says: 

"Ingest The Spirits 

And As A Profligate You Will Succeed!"

The Lord Says: 

"Look Up And Live!" 
Satan Says: 

"Look Around And Live It Up!"

The Lord Says: 

"Have Faith!" 
Satan Says: 

"Have Faith, Fanny, Felicia

Felicity, Frank, Francis And Felix!"

The Lord Says: 

"Come Before Me 

And Worship And Bow Down!"
Satan Says: 

"Worship Before Me! Bow And Come Down!"

The Word Of The Lord
Is
Plain And Straight!
The Word Of Satan 

Is 

Ambiguous
And
Follows The Path Of The Accursed Snake!

The Word Of The Lord
Is
The Truth
And
Is The Light That Gives Life!

The Word Of Satan
Is
The Lie That Benights
And
Always Embroils One In Sure
And
Damnable Strife!

The Lord Jesus Christ Lives Forever!
Satan Shall Die Forever!

The Lord Jesus Christ Offers Glory
For Me And For Thee!
Satan Promulgates Heresy That 

Damns Himself
And 

Every Believing-As-He-Does Body!

Jesus Christ The Lord ... Always Saves
And
Always Will
Those Repentant Ones Who To Him
Their Broken Lives Give!

Satan The Piercing Serpent Cannot, Will Not, Save
And
He Takes His Perverse Pleasure 

From Knowing That He Wantonly Hope Kills!
He Always, Always, The Unwary Soul Destroys!

Choices, Chances
Fate Or Faith
Doubt, Disbelief, Trust:
We Need Truth So That With This Life 

We May Hope To Cope!

Man Must Make His Decision
For Good ... For Life
Or For Self ... To Live In Sin

And
It Is Certain That

Not Almighty God On Heaven's Throne
Nor Satan Bound For Hell
Can Stay Nor Steer The Decision!

The Bottom Line ...

Choosing Life Everlasting
Or
Everlasting Separation From Almighty God
Is 

The Known Sinner's  

Private, Personal, Uncoerced, Decision!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Dollar Bill Owned Man And Land!?!

Dollar Bill Owned People
And
Dollar Bill Owned All The Land
And
Often You'd See Him
With A Man Or Two In Either Hand
And
If He Was Feeling Truly Irate
Or 
Had Had A Successful Late-Night Date
You Might Find A Man Or Two
On His Always Too-Full Breakfast Plate!

Dollar Bill
- For A Dollar Bill Or Two -
Will Cheerfully Sell A Mother
A Grandmother
A Sister Or Brother
And
A Homeless Father
Got No Discount In His Moment Of Disaster
For Dollar Loves His Bills
And
If A Lil' Fish Stole One
Dollar Wouldn't Hesitate
To Cut Out His Gills
For
In His Eyesight Wrong Is Ever Right
And
That Is How That Dollar Bill
Gets His Jollies And Cheap Thrills!

For Them
His Belly Is Never Filled!

Can You Feel The "But" Coming On?! 

But ... 

Dollar Bill Has An Adversary

- A Man He Cannot Stand -

Whose Name Is Entire Dependence

Who Leans Wholly

On The High And Holy Hand! 

Entire Dependence

Is

Completely Consecrated

To The Cause Of The Lord Jesus Christ

And

He Does Not

- Even For A Single Minute -

Contemplate Using The Demonic Device 
Be It

Greed And Gain

One-Upmanship

Rob A Brother

Or

Throwing Around The Word Profane!

Entire Dependence
Believes The Holy Word In Its Entirety

And

He Has Jesus Christ The Righteous

As His Surety

And

His Security

And 

He Does Not Practice Lies!

The Heat Was On ... 

Dollar Bill Tried Everything

To Get Entire Dependence 

To His Warped Way Of Thinking

To Come Around! 

He Offered Him Silver And Gold
And

Even A One-Off Minted Gold Crown

But

Entire Dependence

Had Taken For His Example

The Life That Jesus Christ Had Led

And

For Victory Over Sin

In Every Battle For The Mind

Through Heartfelt Prayer

He Was ... By The Holy Spirit Of Truth

Good Food Fed!

He Walked With God ...

Entire Dependence Would Not

Could Not
And
Refused To

Walk By Himself!

Entire Dependence Leaned
Leans On

And

Walks With ... King Jesus
The Joy Of Every Soul! 

Turning The Screws ...

Dollar Bill Set Traps! 

Trips! 

Tests!

Dollar Bill Told Bold Lies!

Dollar Bill Designed Gross Cheats
And
For A Dose Of Overkill
Dollar Bill Ordered Up Sensory Overloading 
Aka Brain-Busting 
Mind-Blowing
Tempting-To-Touch Treats!

Almighty God Is Strength ...

All The Evils Things 
Were Thrown At Entire Dependence

But

By Kneeling 
Bowing 
Bending 
And
Prostrating Himself Before Almighty God
And
Clinging To The Words Of Truth And Life

In The War Against Dollar Bill And Sin

Entire Dependence Kept Walking 

On Sure And Steady Feet!

Listen To Him
Before The Lord Of Life, Weep ... 

Bless The Lord, Oh, My Soul! 

Trust The Lord And You Will Live! 

Almighty God Is Gracious

Blessing Giving

And

His Faithful Children Who Depend On Him

Shall With Him In Peace

Enjoy Eternal Living!

Lord,

To You, Alone

My Soul, I Am Giving! 

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

I Am Thine, Oh, Lord! 

Draw Me Nearer! 

Lead Me Gently, Safely, Home! 

Suffer Me Never

To Walk Through This Life Alone!

Jesus Christ

For My Sin

Did Atone!

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

I Need You, Lord! 

I Need You Now! 

Remove From My Presence, Lord

Rutting Sin

Behaving Like A Wild Range Sow!

I Know No Other Master!

I Sing A Glad Refrain!

I Trust You, Lord!

You Are My God!

Take From My Soul

Sin's Stain And Shame!

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

Have Thine Own Way, Lord!

Bless Me

To Walk The Straight And Narrow Way! 

I Desire To Enter Into Thy Holy Presence

So

Cleanse Me Of The Vile Urge To Sin

So That In The Glad Day

- By Right -

I Shall Through The Gates Of The Eternal City

With Gladness

Walk In!

Lord, I Desire The Purchased Win!

It Is In Christ Jesus

That

Daily I Am Trusting And Believing!

Never Give Up On Jesus ...

Dollar Valiantly Tried And Failed

And

Bill, Cursing, Died

And

Was Fabulously Displayed
- Nobody Cried -

But

Ever And Always To His God
- The Living Holy Redeeming Faithful True Eternal God -

Entire Dependence

- To This Day - 

Continually Faithfully
Hope-Filled
Enduringly Relies!

Is There A Moral To All This?!

There Is A Moral ... 

Dollar Bills Come!
And 

Dollar Bills Go

And

Property Passes On To Another 

But

Entire Dependence ... On The Living God 

Causes A Regenerated Christian

With The Lord Christ

To Live Happily ... And Forever!

Living In Sin

And

Causing Others To Sin

Does Not Make

Either

A Rich Man

A Poor Man

A Beggar Man

Nor

A Wily Thief

Wise Or Clever!

Trust In Christ Jesus

And

Do All Things

According To His Will

And

Live Righteously Now

And

In The Fullness Of Time

Triumphantly

And

Forever! 

Living In Sin: It's An Illusion ...!

When You Pick Up A Weapon
It Is Never By Mistake!
When You Boldly Walk The Path Of Sin
You Have
- By Choice -
Determined Your Own Fate!

You've Unlocked Damnation's Gate!

Sin ... Is A Weapon
Wielded
By The Wily Foe!
Sin Is A Weapon
That Says You Know
What - Unrestrained - In Life You Want To Do
And
Where, After Death, You Want To Go!

There Is No Mistake
When We "Fall" Into Sin
Because We
By Taking Thought
Have Marked A "Payth"
For Our Own Feet ... Fettered
To Merrily Go A-walking ... Wild!

What's A "Payth"!?

Do You Like My Word?!

Can't Say As Yet!
What Does It Mean?!

A "Payth" Is A Road
That A Sinner Constructs!
The Foundation Is Dug When
Of Sin
By Thought
You Take A Touch!

It Is Followed By Words For Filler
AndDeed Is The Tarmac
When, You, Knowing More Than Your Maker
Walk Thereon With Speed
Deciding
That At The Toll-Bridge Of Life
You
Will Pay Your Own Fees!

Maaan, There's Always A Toll-Bridge
Even If You Ignore The Charge!

There Is Always A Watcher
And
Man Is Never Permitted
To Be A Permanent Scofflaw:

You May Escape Payment ... Today!
You May Escape Payment ... Tomorrow!

You May Have Even Gotten Away ... Yesterday ...!

... I Hear A But!

Indeed You Did

So Just  Remember That

Jesus Christ The Sinless One
Arose On The Third Day Avoiding Corruption
But, You
Base Bold Sinner
Borrowing Dinner
From Beelzebub The Brazen
Are Going To End Up In A World Of Sorrow
And
Abject Horror!

What Do You Mean By That?!

I Am Saying Plainly That

Sin Is A Cage

And

The Sinner Is In A Grudge Match

But
Salvation Is A Rugged Path

- Against A Stunning Vista -

With Pure Water To Sustain Life
And 

A Shepherd Director Healer Sealer Savior
Making The Way
Marking The Path
Leading Souls Safely

And 
Feeding The Souls Fit Food

As They Willingly Walk
Wisely

Ever Climbing To Eternal Life!

How Can Sin Be A Cage
When I See Bold And Aggressive Sinners 

Living Large With Gay Abandon
And In Visible And Outlandish Prosperity!?!

What, May I Ask, Do You Call Prosperity?!

Money, More Money And More Money
To Do What You Want
When You Want
With Whomever You Want
Wherever You Want
Just Because You Want
To Make Yourself Happy!

You Poor Thing!
You're Still Young! 

You'll Soon Learn!

All That Money Does

Is Make One Financially Secure!

It Is Jesus Christ Who Makes You Spiritually Rich
And
Eternally Prosperous!

I Never Heard That Before!

I'm Curious!
Can You Back Up A Bit And
Expand On How Sin Is A Cage!

When You Watch The World

You Hear ...

S alvation
I sn't A
N ecessity!

And You Are Encouraged

To Always Think Of ...

S elf
I n
N eed!

But ...

S elf Is A Sinner
I gnoring The Pleading Of Our Savior God Whilst
N eeding To Be In Control As It
N udges Away Restraint And
E dges Out Truth And
R ushes Toward Damnation!

Whoa, Momma!!

And, Then

There Is The Gilded ... Cage ...

• Do What You Want
• Take What You Desire
• Set Aside Restraint
• Believe That Feeling Is Appealing

And Fool Yourself That

• Death Is All That Is At The Great Journey's End!

Looks Are Deceiving, Friend!

The Truth ...

Take What You Want
And
Pay ... At The End Of The Path
For It!

I Get It!

Pay ... Path ... Payth!

Every Path ... Has A Payment!
Each Man ... Has A Choice:

Live A Life Of Restrain In Christ Jesus
Or
A Life Of License With King Lost!

I Like It! I Like It!

Neither Path Is As It Appears!
One Must Follow The Leader!

Problem Is
Only One Leader Cares!
The Other Is A Bottom Feeder!

Jesus Cares!
Satan Dares!
Dare To Care About Jesus!
Dare To Send Satan Far Away!
He's At The End Of His Day!
Do Not Fear!

Living In Sin Is An Illusion! 

Salvation Is Not A Lie

So

Trust The Lord Of Life

The King Of Creation

Who

For Love Of You

On Calvary 

Suffered Bled And Died!
