VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Christian Code-Switchers!?!













Who Would Have Thought That 
There Would Be Known Practicing Christians 
Who Indulge In Code-Switching!?! 

Huh!?! 

They Are Christians With Their Christian Friends And Associates 
And 
Rabid Sinners With Their Willfully Sinning Friends, You Know, To Fit In! 

Huh!?! 

Yup! 
You Heard It Right! 

Beloved, 

As Children Of The Heavenly Father
Why, Why, Why Would We Feel The Need To Be Switch-Hitters!?! 

Do We Not Remember The Statement Of Truth Which Says That 
A Friend Of The World Is The Enemy Of Almighty God!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Do You Know, Accept, Understand, And Act 
According To Your Calling In Christ Jesus!?! 

If You Are, Don't You Believe That Constancy And Consistency
Faithfulness
And 
Enduring All Things For Our Lord Christ 
Should See You Standing Firm And Deep In The Savior's Love 
No Matter In Whose Company You Should Find Yourself!?! 

Brethren, 

Please Know That There Is No Fence Riding
No Fence Riders
No A Lil' Bit O' This
And 
A Scrumptious Helping O' That 
In The Kingdom Of The Forever Blessed! 

With Jesus Christ The King
You're Either With Him Or Against Him! 

How Are You Standing In And With The Forever Blessed One!?! 

Are You Permitting Him To Hold Your Hand 
To Lead You Gently Safely Home!?! 

The Lord Jesus Is The Light That Leads To Everlasting Life! 
He's Everything To And For Us: 
Think On And Pray About It! 

Peace!

Of Hearts And Treasures!




When The Worldly-Wise Hear True-To-The-Class Christians Say That 
There Is Treasure Laid Up For Us In Heaven
They Look At Us As Though We Have Sprouted Extra Heads! 

Beloved, 

There Is Nothing Wrong With Being Rich 
Unless You Forget The Living God 
And 
Your Wealth Becomes Your God! 
There is Something Wrong With Us And Our Wealth 
If 
It Is Gotten By Fraud And Through Robbing The Poor! 

Dear Ones, 

We, As Practicing Christians, Should Tremble 
And 
Be In Fear Aka In Awe Of The Lord 
When We Read The Scripture Warning Us That 
Our Hearts Follow Our Treasures! 

We Should Remember The Story Of 
The Rich Young Ruler Who Knew The Scriptures
Obeyed The Law Of The Lord
But 
Chose His Numerous Visible Things Over His Lord Christ 
Who Offered Him Treasure Unknown And Unimaginable
In The Future Day Of God's Appointing! 

We Should Also Consider Abraham, Job, And Jacob 
Who Looked Forward To The Better Treasure 
While Being Liberal With What They Possessed! 

We May Also Learn Harsh Lessons From The Lives Of 
Prophet Balaam
Disciple Judas Iscariot
And 
Ananias And His Wife Sapphira 
Whose Hearts Were Totally Corrupted! 

They Lost Their Lives Twice 
Since They Will Not Be Participants In The Receipt Of 
The Gift Of Everlasting Life! 

Is Your Heart Right With God!?! 

Do You Recognize That Treasure Aka Wealth 
Is 
Just A Purpose-Built Tool 
Which Carves Out A Living 
But 
Cannot Give, Retain, Or Restore Life!?! 

Is Jesus Christ Really Your Everlasting Portion!?! 

Think About It! 

Peace!

Happiness Is To Know King Jesus!



What "Makes" You Happy!?! 
Are You Happy!?! 

If Something Or Someone Could Make You Happy
What Or Who Would It Be!?! 

Beloved, 

Unhappy People Don't Like Happy People! 
Angry People Don't Like Calm People! 
Proud People Don't Like Humble People
And
Sinners Don't Like Practicing Christians 
And Yet
All Claim To Be Happy In Their Present Condition: 
Who Is Right!?! 

NEWS FLASH: --

Happiness Via Acquiring Things 
And Using Things To Draw People To Your Side 
Is Not Happiness! 

Just Doing Things To Be Happy
Mouthing Affirmations To Feel Happy
And 
Doing Service Projects To Show That We Are Happy 
Cannot And Will Not Make Us Happy 
When All Of Our Outward Acts To Fill An Inward Need 
Are Stripped Away! 

Think About It ...

Could You ... An Innocent Person
Be "Happy" Locked Away In A Dank, Dismal, Dirty Dungeon 
When All Of Your Sayings, Doables, 
And 
Feelings Of Happiness 
Are Stripped Away!?! 

Dear Ones, 

There Is No True And Lasting Happiness 
And
Contentment 
Outside Of Or Without Being Contented In Christ 
Or Happy In Jesus! 

When Your Roof Flies Off
The Engine Drops Out Of Your Conveyance
And 
Your Withdrawals Ain't Got No Deposits 
But
You're Standing On The Promises Knowing That 
Almighty God Will Provide 
Because
You Have Decided To Follow Jesus ... No Turning Back
You Can Sleep On Rocks 
And 
Eat Grass
And 
Smile Peacefully 
Because 
Jesus Christ The King Has You Sheltered Under His Wings! 

Lashes, Lies, And Loss Have No Leverage 
Against One Who Lovingly Trusts 
The Lord Of Life, Our Creator! 

Wisdom Helps Us To Decide To Be Happy ... In Jesus!  

Peace!
