WRONGED: Make Amends!?!

How You Feel About Me
Does Not Determine How I Should Feel About You!
I Am A Child Of The Living God Holy
And
I Refuse To Submit To The Ways Of The Fraud!

One Hand Cannot Clap

And It Takes Two To Tango Aka Tangle!

I Am Human
And
You Are Likewise
But
Our Difference Is Determined By
Which One Of Us Walks In Truth
And
Which One Of Us Lives By Lies!

A Lie Started War In Heaven

And A Lie Caused A Perfect Man And Woman

And A Perfect Creation To Live To Die!

I Choose The Way Of The Master!
I Choose The Way Of The Living God!
I Choose To Be And To Live Like My Jesus
And
I Will Not Behave Like A Minion Of
The Wanna-Be God-Fraud!

Deceit Will Never Bless Nor Satisfy!

You Hate!
I Appreciate!
You Tempt "Fate!"
I Have With Soul Salvation A Firm Date!

Soul Salvation Is Not Something

To Be Trifled With!

Don't Indulge Hate, Envy, Greed, And Lust!

Look!
This Argument Is Pointless!
I Am Not Going Where You Lead!
I Am Living For My Jesus
And
I Refuse To Ride Satan's Hell-Bound Steed!

You May Hate Me All You Want: Your Choice!
I Will Love You: I Have To ... I Must
And
If There Is Ever Anything That 
I May Do To Assist You In Your Journey
Have No Fear To Call Me
Because
In Jesus Christ's Holy Faith
To Your Side I Shall Surely Rush!

Just Because You Have Free Will

It Does Not Mean That You Should

Use Your Free Will To Be Unkind!

Ask Me For A Glass Of Water!
Rest Assured That It Will Be Clean!
Ask Me For A Meal Of Food For Your Saving
And
Be Convinced That It Shall Be A Clean Meal
Fit For A King, A Queen
Because
I Serve The Living God Holy!
I Serve The God Of Grace Who Sacrificially Loves
And
I Believe The Words Of The Oracle Of Almighty God
Which Plainly Says Firmly:

Whatsoever A Man Sows
That Shall He Also Reap!

And

Anything That I Do For The Least Of The Brethren
I Have Done Unto The Living God!

The Lord Does Not Play Favorites

And He Keeps Faithful Records Of

All We Think, Say And Do

And He Does Not Short-Pay Nor Over-Pay!

Friend,
Jesus Christ Looks Beyond My Faults
And
He Sees My Need
So I Shall Look Beyond Our Faults
- Yes, I Have Mine -
And 
For My Soul Salvation
To You ... I Shall Endeavor Always To Be Kind!

Compassion Is Always Kind!

Compassion Is King!

Jesus Christ Died To Save You!
Jesus Christ Died To Save Me!
Jesus Christ Is All-Seeing, All-Knowing, Ever-Present
All-Feeling
And
My Pray For Us Both
Is
That We Shall See Him On The Great And Glorious Day
In Joy And Perfect Peace
Because
Our Personal, Inherited, And Cultivated
Defects Of Character Will Have ... By His Saving Grace
Been Cleansed
Been Remedied!

The Joy Of The Lord Is Your Strength!

I Am Grateful For The Lord's Present Grace
And
I Am Thankful For Coming Glory
And So
I Bid You God-Speed And A Blessed Day!
May The Lord Grant You His Sweet Peace!

Keep A Zion Song In Your Heart

And With Faithful Endurance

Go On Almighty God's Errands!

THE STAGE CALLED LIFE: Couples Ministry!?!

They Were All Around:

Doubt And Disobedience
Light And Life
Truth And Righteousness
Confession And Repentance
Mercy And Grace
Peace And Rest
Love And Trust
Hell And Damnation
Sin And Self
Death And Destruction
Test And Trial
Blessing And Obedience
And, As Always
Doubt And Disobedience
Were Giving The Session
Their Warped Version Of The Good Life!

Goodness, As Usual, Sat Alone!
Evil, As Usual, Was On His Smart Phone!
Sweet Temptation Was On A Fishing Expedition

And
Red Torment Was Coordinating His Positions!

Salvation Had Been From Heaven Brought Down!

Forgiveness Was Turning Man Away

From Being Satan And Known Sin's Slave!

Bread And Water Assured Walked In The Open Door
Even As Strange Fire Sought To Make  

Mercy And Grace OutTo Be Bold Liars

Or Ineffective Clones!

They Were Not Alone! 

Kindness And Bliss Rested Calmly
Totally, Totally
Ignoring That Serpent's Hiss
Even As The Dragon Flailed About
And
The Lion Raging, Roared
As He Marked An Upcoming Score!

This Is The Stage Called Life!
The Life Of Man Is Fraught With Strife!
The Strife Is Necessary To Overcome
If 
Man Will Rise Up To The Realm Of
Him Who Left The Good Example
For Striving Man To Walk In!

There Is No Need

- Man Afraid -

To Walk Alone On The Edge Of The Sharp Knife!

In The Faith Of Jesus Christ

Pick The Way-To-Eternal-Life Side!

He Will, With You

By His Holy Spirit ... Abide!

From Sin, Self And Satan

Turn Aside! Turn Aside!
And
In The God Of All Graces
Humbly Abide!
The Holy Spirit Of Truth
Will Comfort You As Well As Chide!
In The Savior Jesus, Brethren
Let's All Confidently Confide!

HAPPY SABBATH: Deal!?! No Deal!

Future Good
And
Momentary Indulgence
Were Squaring Off!

At Stake ...

A Mess Of Red Bean Stew
Against The First Born's Birth-Right!

The Struggle Was Real ...

Physical Hunger ... Against Spiritual Longing! 
Love Of Almighty God ... Against Self-Love! 
Rush To Idolatry ... Against Walk To Salvation!

The Result Of The Tussle
Will ... Forever
Change The Earth!
The Struggle Is Still Going On!

The King Of Love
The Good Shepherd
- The Lord Of Life - 

The Angel Of The Covenant

The High Priest Of Our Profession

The Creator

The Redeemer 

Our True Friend  Was Watching!
He Is Still Watching ... Today!

Imagine ... If You Will

Twins!

One, Smooth Studious
Careful Caring Devoted
- A Homebody Farmer Shepherd - 
Longing For The Priesthood!

The Other, Irreligious
Hairy Wild
Reckless Indisciplined
Interested Only In Wealth 

Power
And
Unrestrained Freedom!
There Is Nothing New Under The Sun!

Theirs Is A Collison Of ... Ideals
With
Eternal Implications!

Somebody Is Going To Cry Crocodile Tears
And
Somebody Is Going To Have To Run

Far, Far, Away!

Sin Does Not Pay! 

Jacob Was Righteous: He Loved The Son Of Man! 

Esau Was Wicked: He Loved Mammon!

Jacob Wanted To Serve The Lord For Heavenly Reward! 

Esau Wanted To Be The Lord Who Rewards! 

Jacob

- By Deceit -

Tried To Help The Lord

And

Ended Up Running Away

His Life To Keep!

For 20 Years

He Looked After Greedy Uncle Laban's Goats And Sheep! 

Esau Tried To Help Himself

By Trivializing His Birth-Right

And

In So Doing

He Brought Forth The Idea Of Planned Fratricide

To Regain What He Had Held 
With A Careless Hand Light!

Be Ye Warned ... 

We Do Not Help God

By Doing Wrong To Gain The Right! 

All We Get For Our Base Endeavors

Is 
Upon Our Prosperity A Blight

And

All Who Will To Serve The Almighty

Should Take This Revelation To Heart

And

Trust The Eternal God  ... In His Providence

His Timely Blessing To Impart!

Believe It ...

The Lord's Ways Are Right! 

His Timing Is Never Late! 

Carnality Can Never Bless Divinity

So Do Not In That Diabolical Play 

Choose To Participate! 

Heads Up ...

Those Who Are The Blessed Of God

The Heirs Of His Sure Salvation

Will

Must

Wrestle With The Lord

In The Dark Night Of Despair

If

It Is Their Soul's Desire

To Meet The King Of Love In The Air!

Repentance Is A Blessing ... 

We Must Confess All Our Known Sin! 

We Must Repent Of The Sordid Past! 

We Must Accept And Stand On The Promises Given 

And

Declare Our Allegiance To The Promise-Keeper

And

Being Humble

- Of A Contrite Spirit -

Deliver Up A Broken Heart

And

Command The Blessing

From The Now Christ-Regenerated Heart!

Brethren, 

We Must Not From Right Paths Ever Depart! 

Be Ye Warned ...

Please Don't Be An Esau

Living Like A Louse

Doing What You Will

Of Earthly Power Being Carnally Jealous! 

Seek After The Things Of God

Trusting Him For You To Do

And

Don't Be Licorish For

The Readily Available For The Asking

But Oh, So, Pricey

Delicious-Smelling

Sure-To-Be-Tasty

Red-Bean Stew

That Will Your Birth-Right Cost You! 

What A Savior ... 

Let The Lord Lead! 

Carnal Lust 
Is 
Satan's Prized Steed! 

Please Do Not This Race Horse Feed

And

You Shall Not The Prayer Of Remorse Need! 

Let The Lord Of Glory Lead!
His Back Is Broad!
His Shoulders Strong!
His Blood Efficacious!
His Wisdom Eternity Long!
His Promise Is Certain!
His Faithfulness Sure!
Victory Over Sin Is The Promise
And
His Way Is Certain
Because
He Has The Cure!
He Is The Door!
