Christian In-Name Only And Self Will-Be Hidden Are Brethren Beloved Of The Faith! Both Are Christ Lovers - At Least Both Act That Way - But They Are As Different As Salt And Sugar Salt Fish And Sweetmeats And Salt Of The Earth And Pride Of Life!
Jessie?!
Yes, Graffie?!
You Know That I Ain't Too Bright So Could You Please ... I Begging You Explain That Juxtaposition Between Salt Of The Earth And The Pride Of Life!?!
Yes, Smarty Pants!
It Is Like This ...
Self Will-Be Hidden Is A Meek And Gentle Spirit Against Whom No Law Can Stand! He Walks Softly In The Sanctuary He Does The Lord's Business On The Down-Low And He Knows Who It Is In Whom He Steadfastly Believes!
His Jesus Is Salvation-Real And He Does Not Stand Up And Testify About How Many Where When Why And How He Rendered Service To The Brethren In Need!
He Lives A Poor And Peaceful Life Is Unfailingly Polite And You Will Only Know What He Has Done Because The Recipients' Gratitude
Is Spoken Of By Them To The Congregation!
Self Will-Be Hidden
Is Not Into Bells And Whistles Nor Accolades And Awards!
By Contrast And In Definite Opposition To Self Will-Be Hidden Christian In-Name Only Despises Godly Example And Righteous Course And Completely Studiously Ignores Faithful Instruction!
It's Sad Because These Three Would Have Led Him And His Family And His Servants And Even His Observers To Fear To Love And To Give Due Reverence To The Holy God!
Something Had To Give ... And It Did!
As You All Surely Know Man Cannot Make Mock-Sport At The True And Living Eternal Holy God With Impunity!
Mr. Christian In-Name Only Because He Did Not Love The Living Truth Started Loving The Bold Lie And SoonThat One-Name Demon, Christalignment And The Spirit-Driven Know-It-All, Destiny Card Were Doing Future-Pursuit Love-Ins In The Creator God's Sanctuary!
These Heathens Were Sincerely Bold Helpfully Officious And Tenaciously Persistent In Getting Believers To Join The Backsliding-Heifer Group!
Where, Oh, Where, Is Simple Primitive Faith!?!
Heads-Up, People ...
The Living God Holy
Faithful And True Does Not Like Unkindness Deceit Lies Nor Idolatry And That Backsliding-Heifer Group Sincerely Practiced All Of These!
Christian In-Name Only Church Board Member Gold-Level Coffer Contributor Greedy For Temporal Gain Man Around Town Who Ever Always Has A Listening Air
To The Vibrating Ground Is
An Ace Recruiter For The Area BHG!
He Could Make An Esquimo Buy Ice And Believe Or Not He Doesn't Do Cheap! He Can't Spell Free And The Use Of The Word "Gift" Causes His So-Called Placid Countenance To Do The Wrong-Direction Shift! He Does Not Ever Anyone's Low Spirit Lift!
One Truly Sweet Day Petticoat Lane Goodtime Charlie Toss D. Coin Coin A. Phrase Miller Time Hoochie Mama Rum Still And Mount Gay Descended En masse Uninvited Upon Christian In-Name Only's
Show-Room Residence! There Was A Blow-Out Party In Full Swing!
The Joint Was Jumping!
Truth Be Told ...
Lies Were Being Sold! Alternative Facts Were Being Exchanged! False News Was Not On Hold! Licensed Liar Was In Full Control! Devil Dog Was Being Bold And Grudge Match Was About To Unfold!
Compromising Position - The Instigator Of Many A Palace Coup - Along With Petticoat Lane And Hoochie Mama Were Strategically Draped Over Christian In-Name Only Who Had A Paro In His Right Hand And Mount Gay In His Left Hand!
Unbeknownst To Those Present Photo Graphic Was Manipulating Camera Lens And Thousand-Word Picture - Ever At The Ready - Framed The Scene!
Three Days Later ...
Sunday Times Published The News:
Big-Up Christian In-Name Only
Caught Dishabille: Compromising Position On Display!
As Every Living Body Done Know On The Fourth Day Corruption Sets In And The Body (In Question) Started A Stink!
Caught Dead-To-Rights
Christian In-Name Only Tried
To Bring Down Heaven
The Very Heaven He Had Joyfully Disdained As Recent As 24 Hours Ago!
He Cried Entrapment! He Lambasted Photo Shop! He Derided CGI! He Swore At Green Screen!
He Called For Mercy! He Hollered For Grace! He Prayed For Salvation! He Keened For Truth!
He Wished For Light!
He Considered Flight But ThoughtThat That Would Mean Good Night To All His Beloved Delights Of The Flesh ...
And Realized ...
That Exposed Flesh Had Gotten Him Into His Predicament In The First Place
And
He Decided To Brazen It Out:
Yes, I Did It!
But ... It Was To Prove A Point!
He Didn't Have The Decency To Be Sorry!
And ...
He Was Now Into Covering Up Known Sin ... With Another Known Lie!
Well, Well, Well!
All Of A Sudden - Like Lightning - In The Midst Of His White Castle Whopper Tor Nado Blew In And Lifted Off The Roof Pulled Apart The Walls And Mashed Up All The Pleasant Things That Furnished The Memorial To Gross Vanity!
When The Howling Finally Settled The Only Thing Not Broken Was A Beautifully Inscribed Plaque Which Read:
He Is Faithful To His Promises
So Humble Your Puny Self
Under The Mighty Hand
Of
The Just And Living Holy God
And
He Will Lift You Up
In His Own Time!
Christian In-Name Only
Had Lost Everything Last Thing That
He Had Considered Necessary To His High Life
And Without Preamble
The Vanquished Was Heard Sorrowfully Yet Somehow Joyfully Singing:
Lord, I Want To Be A Christian!
Search My Heart Today!
I Am Delivered!
I Have Come To Praise You Now!
Please Help Me!
I Am Clean!
Draw Me Nearer!
I Am Thine!
I Thirst!
Throw Out A Lifeline!
Fill Me ... Now!
The Irony Of It All Was Not Lost On The Assembled Townspeople!
Self Will-Be Hidden Was The Only Person Who Offered A Helping Hand!
Self Control Is A Road A Vehicle On A Road A Seat In A Vehicle On A Road!
Self Control In A Man Is A Steering Wheel In The Hand Of The Man In A Vehicle On The Road Called Life!
Self-Deceit Sin AND Disaster Are Deep Ruts In The Road Of Life When Man - Any Human - Has No Self Control!
This Man's Vehicle Is Vanity Intemperance ... His Wheels AND His Fuel Is Dirt Cheap Because He Buys It
At Mobile Gas Station I-Feels!
Who ... But A Fool Drives A Vehicle With No Engine Or Sits In A Vehicle That Has No Seat Cushion
AND Whose Brake Line Has No Fluid AND Of Direction Has ... No Notion?!
Who ... But A Fool Will Deign To Have A Feast In A Speeding Vehicle Possessing Neither Wind Shields No Doors?!
Can You Drive A Vehicle That Has No Spark Plug?!
Who ... But A Fool Blindfolded Inebriated
AND Going The Wrong Way Gets On The Expressway Of Life Racing A Vehicle With A Broken Axle?!
Let's Get Real ...
The Man The Woman The Child Without Self Control Is A Weapon Of Mass Destruction Stuck
In Self Destruct Mode Wise
In Its Own Eyes Confident
In Its Own Prowess Sure That Its Cause Is Just Ignorant That It Is Being Purposefully Driven By Lust Of Its Own Eye AND Lust In Its Own Flesh For That That Is The Pride Of Its Own Life!
Let This Be Made Known ...
Self Control Is As A Coal From The Altar In The Temple Of The Living God Retrieved By The Good-Influence Angel AND Carried With Tongs AND Placed With Due Care On The Tongue Of The Blessed The Sanctified One!
Self Control IS The Gift Of God!
Self Control Is The Great Reminder!
DO NOT ACT LIKE:
KING SAUL
Grieving Away The Holy Spirit
GENERAL MOSES
Striking The Rock At The Waters Of Strife
NADAB And ABIHU
Placing Strange Fire On The Holy Altar Of Almighty God
ACHAN
Stealing The Dedicated Things
KING DAVID
Fornicating With Bathsheba
Murdering Uriah
KING SOLOMON
With 700 Wives And 300 Concubines Out Of Known Idolatry
Loose Lips Sink Ships AND A Raging Tongue Will Make One Lose On Eternity Their Grip! The Pointed Red Rag That Slab Of Hot Meat Stuck Behind Two Rows Of Pearls Called Teeth Is Lit On Fire From Hell AND Is Ever Ready To Blast Into A Blazing Conflagration Which No Human Hand Can Quell Though Cold Water On It Is Quickly Cast! I Heard That A Soft Answer Turns Away Wrath! I Heard That Tongue And Teeth Always Have Words And That Teeth Always Is The One Getting The Bath! Well ... I Believe The Word Of God Which Says Be Angry AND Sin Not AND I Am Really Concerned For Those For Whom Self-Control Does Not Mean A Whole Lot! Why Would You Let A Small Tongue Carve For Your Feet A Very Wide Road When For A Deep Breath AND A Silent Prayer The Living God Can Carry The Load? Would You Write AND Issue A $1,000,000 Check When You Have Just 1,000 Pennies In The Bank Just To Show That You Are A Big Man Around Town All The While Knowing That Off To Bad Check Court You Will Go For You Committed An Offense! A Crime?! Come On! That ... Would Be Foolish! Well, A Loose Tongue Acts Just Like That! It's Not What You Say! It Is How You Say It AND Thinking Before Speaking Is Not Carrying A Back-Breaking Load! No Man Can The Hot Tongue Tame So It Stands To Reason That A Wildly Wagging Tongue Is Something About Which One Should Be Ashamed! Look Before You Leap! Think Before You Speak! Pray Before You Flail AND A Sinful Tongue Won't Land You In Sorryman's Jail! Apostle James ...?! Yup! Apostle James! Better To Practice Self Control AND Temperance In Food Thought Word AND Lean On The Lord Instead Of From Life Getting A Red Penalty Card! Think! Look Forward! AND Think Back! AND Don't Be An Abominable Scorner Bent On Always Having Your Own Way! Say Your Prayers AND Let God Lead The Way! That's A Good Way To Play! I Agree! I'm Really Tired Of Saying "Sorry!" For Words That I Can't Take Back! It Is Better That They Should Be Left Unsaid Than To Have Self-Recrimination's Weak AND Roundly Aching Head Because You Regret What Fool Thing You Have Said! Beseech Almighty God For Help AND Then Permit God To Do His Do AND Take Away From You That Wicked Tongue's Fire-Pit Walking Running Shoes! Amen To That!!
Darkness Covers The Earth And Gross Darkness Covers The People With Despair For There Is Compromise Between Christianity And Paganism AND Oppression Is Everywhere! The Word Of The Lord Is Quite Simple: Do! Don't Do! Walk Holy! Trust Me! Believe Not Satan's Lies BUT "Going Along To Get Along!" Is Causing God's People To Practice Artful Compromise Using Bridge-building Lies! If Truth Plus Error Is Error AND Error Plus Truth Is Error How In The Name Of The God Upon Heaven's Throne Can Three-Quarter Truth AND Whole White Lie Plus Wittingly Doth The Living God Defy Equal When We Die We To Bright Heaven Fly?! Why Is It That When Lie Wants To Masquerade As Truth That It Speaks Like An Educated Horse With A Rotten Tooth Whistling Dixie In The Air While Explaining That The Documentary Proofs For God's Light Is Unclear AND THEN Produces A Lost Found Re-Discovered Document Same But Different From Under Grandfather's Aunt's Broken Fixed Mashed Up Technicolor White Rocking Chair?! Come Promise Me Is The Initiator-Compromiser's Best Rule For It Is Outfitted With An Almost Great Gift For Its Jewel BUT When The Non-Negotiation Is All Done It Will Too Late Be Found That The Instigator Has Unfailingly Gained All The Good Solid Ground! Lucifer-Satan Beelzebub Belial Devil Dragon The Son Of Perdition The Opposer Of God Dread Befouler Of Man The Lord Of Destruction Is The Compromiser's Spray Can! Be It Targeted Spray Or Wide-Angle Discharge Mess Is The Medium AND Denial Of Service To God Is Ever The Good Reason! So ... Listen Well, I Tell You Listen Well And Understand Take A Stand For Jesus Stand Firm Even If The Heavens Fall! Stand For Even Though Satan Hates You The Hosts Of Heaven Will Joyously Applaud AND Support You!
Compromise In A Christian Is A Filthy Word For Serving The Lord In His Sanctuary Demands A Constant Committed Soldier Striving - Out Of Love Of Jesus Christ - For Christ's - Not Man's - Reward! Waffling Is For Politicians! Walking Rigidly Non-Compromising Of Truth Is For Workers For The Lord AND Christians Who Preach To Please Others Are Not With The Lord Walking In Accord! A Dog Who Brings A Bone Carries From That House Another And A Bone Carrier Gets Shot By Whomever He Leaves In A Lather! Walk Straight! Talk Right! Live In The Light AND God Will Give Us Might To Be Resolute In Our Convictions For Truth Never Waivers No Matter The Measure Applied To The Sole Of The Righteous Soul Who Stands Constant In Any Weather! If God Be God Worship God! If Baal Be god Worship Baal! For Baal-god And god-Baal Are Abominations AND To Stoop To Such Compromise Leads To Soul Degradation AND Lost Salvation!

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, Have Mercy On Us Who Care!
