Walk The Talk The Walk!

 



The Perfect Love That Our Dear Savior Has For Us 
Will Never Allow Him To Overlook Our Sin 
And 
Permit Us To Indulge In Selfishness And Unkindness! 

Our Growing Love For Our Dear Savior 
Will Never Permit Us To Willingly Practice Sin 
And 
Be Participants In Acts Which Are Decidedly Unholy 
And 
A Straight Departure From His Divine Character Of Grace
Mercy, Goodness, Truth, Gentleness, Kindness
And 
Righteousness! 

Beloved, 

"Christian" Talk Is Cheap! 

Wearing A Christian's Garb 
Is 
Cheap And Convenient! 

"Speaking" The Christian's Language 
By Repeating Buzz-Words 
Does Not Give One Agility 
Or Facility To Treat To The Unexpected 
Or The Unfamiliar 
Or The Curve-Ball Of Catastrophe! 

We Have To Walk The Talk The Walk!

The Lord's Commitment To Our Growth Through Grace 
And 
Our Commitment To Him Through Willing Obedience 
And
The Bold, Even Aggressive, Exercise Of 
Our Daily Gift Of His Faith 
Requires Us To Walk In Accord With His Will 
And 
His Ways 
And
Under His Billowing Banner Of 
Living, Unchanging, Truth! 

Self-Deception Leads To Self-Destruction 
But 
Loving The Living Truth Leads To The Light That 
Is 
The Life Of Every Man! 

We Can't Be Dirty In The Dark! 

Jesus Christ 
Is 
The Lover Of Your Soul 
And
It Is By Him, Alone, That You Are Remade 
To Stand Clean Before The Great White Throne! 

Hold On To Your Blessings: 
Live In ... Live For ... Live Through ... The Truth! 

Peace!

LET YOUR SLEEP BE SWEET: Ears Are Not Cosmetic!





All Who Are Not Deaf Can Hear! 
All Who Are Attentive Will Listen To Understand! 
All Who Are Obedient 
Because 
Of Faith 
And 
Trust In Jesus Christ The Lord 
Will Regard Aka Give Heed To The Instructions Given 
And 
Walk Wisely In The Sight Of The Lord! 

Beloved, 

Liars Have To Play Hide And Seek With Memory 
To Always Remember Their Latest Fiction! 

Thieves Always Invest In Metal Bars, Locks And Bolts 
But
The Righteous, The Honest
The True To Almighty God
Speak Truth
Do Right
Are Loving, Kind, Giving
Given To Hospitality
And 
Have That Meek And Gentle Spirit 
Against Which There Is No Law! 

Along With That
Because 
The Lord Of Life
The King Of Glory
The Good Shepherd
Is 
Their Guardian, Guide And Protection
Their Sleep Is Sweet
Their Heart Is At Rest
Their Thoughts Are In And Of Heaven 
And
All Is Well In Their World 
Even Though The Earth Is Heaving
And 
The Sky Is Falling! 

We Are Blessed, Sheltered, Provided For 
And 
Protected 
When We Trust In Our Lord With All Our Strength 
And 
Walk Enduringly ... Faithfully
In The Will Of Our Father 
Who Is On His Great White Throne In Heaven! 

Let Us Be Truly Wise
Even Unto The Saving Of Our Soul
And
Let Us Entrust The Care 
And 
Keeping Of Our Hearts To God 
So That All Is Well With Our Souls! 
Perfect Love Casts Out Fear: 
Love The Lord Wholly!

STOP SHOWING YOUR GOAT-PARTS: Don't Compromise Truth!







Why Settle For Cheap, Temporary Infatuation 
When You Can Bask, Bathe, In Everlasting Love
Blessed, Proved, Sure, Secure!?!

Why Accept A Pound Of Gold 
When You Can Have Streets Of Gold
A Home Built On Twelve Foundations Of Stones Most Precious 
And 
The Love Of The Pure And Holy Heart Of Him Who Died 
To Give Us His Everlasting Life!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Honest And Believe That You Are Personally Blessed! 
Be Faithful 
And 
Remember All The Times When Hope Was Gone
Despair Was Raging 
And 
All That Was Left In Your Head Was The Word Of Love:


"The Lord Is My Shepherd
A Stronghold In Time Of Trouble
My Hope, Help And Salvation 
My Refuge And My Strength!"
 

You Heard The Voice Of Jesus Saying:

"Come Unto Me And Rest!" 

And 
You Did! 

You Rested 
And 
You Were Refreshed! 

You Touched Love
Felt Love 
And
Returned Love
And
Embraced Perfect Peace! 

Jesus Christ, Alone, Saves: 
Don't Cheat! 

Jesus Christ Loves You
Individually, Personally ... Passionately: 
Don't Compromise Truth

And

Stop Showing Your Goat Parts! 

Stop Butting! 
Stop Bleating About 
But, Can't
If, Why
When, Where And How 
And
Start Enjoying ... Really Enjoying
The Perfect Love That Won't Let You Go 
And 
The Loving-Kindness That Won't Fail You ... Ever!

 

There Is No Peace
Without
Christ Jesus!

HAPPY SABBATH + Scrubbing Brushes, Chisels, Hammers, Cross-Cut And Rip-Cut Saws And Sand-Paper!





The Lord Our God 
Does Not Make Idle Promises About 
Neither Sin Nor Salvation
Blessing Nor Rebuke
Heaven Nor Hell
And 
We Of The Household Of Faith 
Must Not Minimize Or Place A Gloss Over 
The Plain Word That 
Proceeds From The Mouth Of The Almighty God 
By Indulging Doubt, Disbelief 
And 
Disobedience! 

Let's Consider A Baby! 

A Baby Knows The Voice
The Taste
The Touch
The Smell 
And 
The Rhythm Of The Heart Of Its Mother
And 
In The Chaos Of The Noisy World 
Or Its Own Household
Baby Will Seek For 
And 
Find Care, Comfort, Rest
Refreshing 
And 
Peace 
In Its Mother's Arms! 

So, With That Said
What's Our Problem!?! 

The Lord Our God 
Is 
Our Creator 
Aka Father And Mother 
Who Cannot Forget Us 
Because 
Of The Richness Of His Infinite Grace
And 
Eternal Love! 

Jesus Christ's Innocent, Precious, Blood 
Purchased Our Redemption 
And 
We Are Called To Saving Faith 
- By His Daily Gift To Each Of Us Of 
A Measure Of His Faith -
By The Plain Truth 
To Willingly, Eagerly, Wholly,  Trust 
The Holy God Of Grace 
To Get Us Safely Home To Unending Glory! 

This World 
Is Not 
Our Forever Home
And
Our Problems Are But Scrubbing Brushes
Chisels, Hammers
Cross-Cut And Rip-Cut Saws And Sand-Paper:
We Must Be Clean And Righteous Before Our Lord ... The Judge!

Beloved, 

We Have Free Will And Free Choice
So Let Us ... As Children Of The Great King
Choose To Walk In Enduring Faith 
And 
By Almighty God's Great Grace
Do Not Deny His Personally-Shown
Perfect Love For You!

The Lord Cannot Forget
His Very Own
Greatly-Beloved Children!

Book-It ...
 
Walking In The Truth Brings Peace: 
Be Comforted In Christ Jesus
Shiloh
The Prince Of Peace
Who Is Our Haven Of Rest!


Rejoice In The Lord ... Of Life!

Choices, Chances, Changes!




Psalms 37:37 KJV - Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the  end of that man is peace.



Teach The Living Word To Others 
And 
Better Learning Of The Word For Yourself 
Is 
The Result! 

Those Who Live By The Faith Of Jesus 
Cause Their Gift Of Faith To Be Seated Deeper 
And 
Take Up More Space In Their Lives: 
What We Use Grows
And 
What We Refuse We Lose! 

We Can't Have Faith Unless We Believe That He Is Real
And
We Can't Please The Lord Without Working Our Faith!

Beloved, 

Life With The Lord Christ 
Is Not 
Complicated! 
He Has Made It Plain: 
We Will Be Hated By Evil People For His Sake: 
We Will Be Rewarded By Almighty God ... By Christ Himself
Who Is Bringing His Rewards With Him 
For Our Total Faithfulness To Him! 

Question Is ...
Will We Be Traitors ... To Our Creator And Savior 
To Achieve Temporary Peace With His Enemies 
Or 
Will We Be Loyal To Him For Life
Live In His Perfect Love
Endure The Temporary Hate
And 
Live With Him In Eternal Peace 
At The Time Of His Appointing!?! 

Choices, Chances, Changes ...

Loving God 
Is 
A Personal, Private, Heart-Engaged Decision! 
If We Desire To Live With The Lord Christ
We Must Live Like Jesus Christ Did 
When He Walked Amongst Us! 
Perfection Is Our Goal

So Remember That 

We Come To The Lord Dirty 
But
We Cannot Remain That Way! 
Our Lives, Loves, Attitudes, Desires 
And 
Decision-Making  
Must Change! 

Faith In Jesus Christ The King
Is 
Our Firm Foundation 
And 
Love For Him 
And 
Obedience To Him 
Is 
The Cement That Keeps It All Together! 

Jesus Always Saves: 
Trust Him And Be Truly Blessed! 

Let's Make Peace With Our Father Who Is In Heaven!

The Bald Question!



Psalm 60:4 You have given a banner to them that fear you, that it ...



The Banner Of The Lord Over His People 
Is 
Love ... The Holy Love Of The Eternal God: 
Love Prospers In Truth! 

The Question That Needs To Be Baldly Asked 
And 
Honestly Answered Is: 


Are We ... As Committed Christians
Living In Perfect Love 
And
Absolute Truth
As They Proceed
From The Heart Of Our God 
Who, Himself, Is Love And Truth!?! 


Will You Take Your Personal Stand For Living Truth 
And Live By, Stand On, And Die For Perfect Love!?! 

Is Your Love Situational ... Conditional!?! 

Is Truth, For You, Transactional ... Negotiable!?!

Will Your Life Stand "The Sniff Test" Before The Judge Of All Flesh!?! 

Beloved, 

Let's Think Long And Hard 
Not About What We Must Give Up 
But 
About What We Need To Hold Near And Dear 
If 
Our Heart's Desire 
Is 
Heaven At The Last Trumpet! 

There Is No Love Without Truth 
So Let Us Know It
Tell It
Live It
Share It
Walk In It 
And, Yes
If Needs Be
Die For The Truth! 

Jesus Christ 
Is
The Truth 
And
The Love Of Almighty God Exemplified 
Aka Personified ... Made Real 
And 
No One Gets Into The Father's House Without Jesus 
... The Character Of Jesus ... 
Without The Love Of God
Without The Truth! 

Heaven! 
Hell! 
Where Are You Headed!?! 


How Much Preferred Stock
Do You Have In Saving Truth 
And 
Heavenly Love!?!

PRESENT TRUTH: The Commandments Of Almighty God



The Commandments ... The Word Of God
The Always Present Present-Truth 
For This Age In Which We Live
Are A Firm Foundation For Our Feet
An Unbreachable Roof Over Our Heads
And 
A Hedge Of Protection Around Us 
From Our Known-Rabid Enemy! 

Our Jesus Christ ... The Living Of God
Is 
Not A Mercenary For Hire In A Foreign Legion
- Off To Make His Fortune 
Off The Blood And Guts Of Our Enemies - 
Who Tried And Failed To Overcome! 

Our Jesus ... Our Champion
Is 
God Almighty, King Forever
Conqueror ... Battle-Scarred: Victorious! 
He Has Given To Us His Unfailing Word To Read 
And 
Believe
To Trust ... And Daily Use As Our Defence! 

"Thus Saith The Lord...!" 
Is 
The Word For Our Own Blessing 
And
The Curse 
To Heap Upon The Damned-For-Eternity Head Of Satan
Our Published Enemy! 

Beloved, 

Cheer Your Heart With A Song Of Zion
And 
Bless Your Life By Knowing 
The Eternal Word Of Truth That Always Saves! 

Hide The Word ... Hide Jesus, In Your Heart 
And 
Live Safely As A Saint Of God 
In His Perfect Love Which Casts Out Fear! 
Be Faithful ... And Be At Peace!


Satan Is The Liar
The Father Of Truth-Reversed!
His Words Are Filled
With The Poison Called Known-Sin
And
All Who Follow Him
End Up Being Blighted And Cursed!


Leadership In The House of God. “And if it seem evil unto you to ...

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Great Motivators!

The Conference Is In Session
And
The Great Motivators Themselves Are There:

 Fear Is There For The Clan Of Live Evil
And
Perfect Love Is There For The Clan Of The Good Shepherd
He To Whom His People Are Dear!

You Should Know That That Conference
Is 
Attended For Two Reasons:

One To Rescue
And
One To Destroy 
And
All The Attendees Employ 
The Methods Of Their Respective Leaders
And
Do It For Love And With Joy!

The Clan Of Live Evil
Live To Do Evil
To Be Vile
And
To Cause Unimaginable Pain!

To Instill Fear In Others
Is 
Their Reason For Being
And
Every Day They Swear That
No One That They Put Their Claws Into
Will Be Getting Away!

Vain Words Is What I Call Them
Because
Perfect Love Always Casts Out Fear
Who Dares To Try To Steal Man's Hope
Leaving Him Naked
And
Without Any Way In His Life
With Things To Cope!

Perfect Love
Is
Born Of The Shepherd Of Rest
The Savior Of Man
The Son Of Almighty God Begotten
The Redeemer
Who From Satan's Temptations 
Gave No Quarter
And
In Fear
From Him Did Not Run!

The Good Shepherd
The Savior
The Redeemer 
The Forever Friend
Loves Sacrificially
And
Leaves No Loose Ends
For One To Trip Over
Or To Become Entangled
Or To Become Frayed
Causing One To Be A Castaway!

He, Being Ever Obedient 
Doing What Does His Father Please
Engenders In His People's Heart
The Comfort That Brings To The Human Spirit 
- From The Sweet Spirit Of Truth -
What Gives Ease And Relief, And Release!

By Contrast
Fear Brings Up The Past
Denies The Present
And
Rejects The Future!

Fear Undermines
Redefines
And
Maliciously Crosses Solid Yellow Lines! 

Fear Contradicts
Castigates
And
Thoroughly Humiliates!

Fear Wonders
Worries
Wanders
And
Vindictively Wastes!

Fear Does Not Know How Perfect Loves Tastes
Until The Soul ... Thoroughly Oppressed
And
Expressing Need Of Salvation
Opens Up Their Heart
And
Perfect Love ... Naked
Unashamed
Unafraid
Unerringly Extends That Gentle Hand
Providing Sure Healing
Compliments Of The Son Of God
Compliments The Soon-Returning To Earth
Son Of Man!

Perfect Love Heals Hurts!
He Soothes Sorrows!
He Makes Human Hearts Glad!
He Gives Help For Today 
And
Graciously Provides Hope For Tomorrow!

Perfect Love Gives Energy Like The Shining Sun!
He Gives Calm Like The Glow Of A Harvest Moon!
He Gives Continual Sparks Of Joy Like The Twinkling Star
And
From His Hand Of Help
One Is Never, Ever, Far!

You Hurt!?! 
He Hurts!

You Cry!?!
He Cries!

You Lie!?!
He Doesn't 
Because
His Heart Is Pure
And
Against Every Known, Practiced
Promulgated, Putrid, Sin 
He Is The Cure
And
That Is Why The Clan Of Evil Hates Him!
To Escape Them
He Is The Only Door!

Every Day Is A Conference!
Every Day Provides Another Opportunity Of Escape!
The Clan Of Evil Cares Not For Those Whom They Overcome:
They're More Interested That Prince Shiloh
The Good Shepherd
Should Not Have A Victory!
No! Not One! 
His Presence Relieves Them Of Their Fun!

Brethren,

The Good Shepherd Gives Good Gifts To Men!
The Gifts Are Free
And
On His Strong Arm
We May All With Assurance Depend
So Do Not Be A Merchandising Snob
And
Deny That Anything Gotten For Free Is A Waste
Because
This Is One Freeness That
All Mankind Should Seek To Apprehend
To Take
To Taste!
It Cost Jesus Christ His Blood!

We All Have Personal Choices To Make
And
The Choice Between Perfect Love
And
Fear
Must Be By Self Made!

Fear Will Tie You Up In Gordian Knots
But
The Sword Of Perfect Love
Will Free You
With One Clean And Clear Chop!

Be Wise
Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation
And
Give Satan
And
His Decimating Fear
The Grace Of Almighty God Blot!

HAPPY SABBATH + So, What: Lover Of Sin!?!





Don't Understand
Don't See
Don't Care
And
So What
Are Discussing The Issue Of Sin
And
They Were Each Taking The Popular Positions
Beloved Of The Sin-Loving
Discipline-Despising
Christian Character-Minimizing
Self-Aggrandizing Populace
Who Are All Professionally Diagnosed With "I" Problems!

They Had Just Told Off It's A Lost Cause
Who Had Adamantly Declared That
Being A Lover Of Sin Was A Lost Cause
Because
The Lover Of Sin Would Be Lost To The Lord Christ 
Because 
His Cherished Cause Will Never Be Found
Ever. Again.
In The Heavenly Realm!

For The Record ...

These Are The Positions Held 
And
Boisterously Stated:

Don't Understand Doesn't Understand Why Sin Is A Problem!
Don't See Doesn't See Sin As A Problem!
Don't Care Doesn't Care Who Has A Sin Problem!
And
So What, Unphased By The Displays Of Emotion, Said:

So, What!?! We're All Gonna Die Anyway!


The Bases Are LOAAAADED!!

Converted Christian Is Pitching: 

  • Sin Is The Transgression Of God's Law
  • Sinners Need Salvation
  • Jesus Christ Saves
  • Almighty God's Mercy Is Free
  • Confession Of Sin Relieves The Heavy Load
  • Repentance Is Good For The Riven Soul

So What Is Royally Ticked Off
By The "Sermonette"
And
Tries To Dig Out Converted Christian's Cleansed Eyes!

Converted Christian
Shielded By Grace
Enclosed By Faith
And
Made Prosperous By Mercy, Responded:

True Prosperity Depends On Piety!

Suddenly,
Marvellous Grace Entered The Fray
And
Like A Thunder-Bolt, Proclaimed:

Our God Is A Consuming Fire

And No Sinner Unrepentant

Can Survive In His Holy Presence!



Repent Of Your Sin

And You Shall Be Bountifully Blessed!


Don't Understand, Trembling In Fear
At The Can't-Be-Ignored Statement, Squeaked:

I Don't Understand!
Is My Mind Weak!?!

Faith For Today Chimed In:

Those Who Cast Off The Government Of God
- That Is The Laws And Precepts Of God -
Are Those Who First Cast Aside Man's Gift Of Understanding!

Pretended Ignorance Is An Insult To Our Creator
Who Gave Every Man Certain Gifts
Amongst Them
The Ability To Understand Right From Wrong!

Being Self-Willed And Own-Way Are Not Spiritual Blessings!
They Are Pillars
- Even Foundation Stones -
Whereon The Sin Life Is Built!

Don't Understand Replied: 

Dear Lord, Have Mercy On Me!
I See My Need
And I Here And Now Acknowledge That
I Am Carnal-Minded And Sold Out To Sin!

To Which Truth, Holding Mercy's Extended Hand, Replied:


Behold The Lamb Of God
Who Takes Away The Sin Of The World!


Following This Declaration
And
For The Record
This Is The Charge That Don't Understand Then Received:



Be Instant
Be Constant In Prayer!
Do Not Let The World Bend You To Its Will!
Do Not Live In Fear!


The Lord Says:
Come Boldly To The Throne Of Grace!
For You, I Have Made The Way!
Stand Up And Be Counted For The Kingdom!
I Shall Not Turn You Away!


Ask ... When You Believe!
Seek ... Do Not Steal!
Knock: Heaven's Storehouses Are Open

And
You Will Your Request By Faith Receive!


The Devil
Old Satan Is The Liar!
His Soon Rest Is In The Lake Of Fire!
Do Not Follow Him Like A Tame Dog
He Cannot Save You Nor Himself
So
Go Straight To The Lord Of Life
And
The Lord Always Willing
You Will Survive The Mortal Strife
And
From The Hand Of The Lord Christ
You Will Receive Eternal Life!


Remember! Remember!
Don't Ever Forget:
Perfect Love Casts Out Fear!
This Is The Sure Word!
It Is Not A Whim Nor A Dare!
Trust The Word Of The Promise Giver
Who Is Also The Promise Keeper
Whether You Live Long
Or Become A Long-Home Sleeper!


Trust The Creator!
Trust The Lord Kind!
Trust The Shepherd Of Your Rest
Because
He Won't Cast You Aside
Or
Leave His Faithful Child Behind!
Don't Doubt The Lord: It Is A Sin
A Known Crime!
