SIGNS OF THE TIMES: The Confab ...!

World History
Current Events
And
KJV Bible Prophecy
Were Indulging In A Big Ole Confab!

Revisionist History Had Been Asked To Vamoose
Because
He Wanted To Eat Fabulously
Whilst The Others Would Have To Pay 

The Unwise Man's Tab!

To Set The Table Fresh
And
Bring You Up To Scratch
I Must Tell You Plain That
Revisionist History Is A Bold-Faced

Long-Winded Liar
And
One Who Has Absolutely No Shame!

World History Is Often Written
From The Perspective Of The Conqueror
And
I Should Make You Very Aware That
Satan Is The Master With Real-Real Ink 

Writing His Version Of Truth In There!

But ...

That Is Not Our Story Today!

No Matter What Happens In This World
The Living Word Prophesied It
And
No Matter What The Devil Does
He Cannot By Angry Strength Or Cutting Wit 

Hide It!

Prophecy ... Simply Put
Is
World History Written In Advance
Because
The Lord God Holy
Leaves Nothing To Chance!

It's Written For Our Warning And Education
Upon Whom The End Of The World Is Come!

Only God Can Tell You
When This Dying Earth
Waxing Old Like A Garment
Is Dead, Dead

And 

Done!

The Lord God Eternal Does Nothing
Without First Telling His Servants The Prophets
And
We All Would Do Well
If We Will Give Heed To Read
The Preserved Writing Of It!

There Is Nothing New Under The Sun!

What Is ... Was
And
What Was ... Shall Be!

Signs Of The Times Are Everywhere
And
If We ... Being Wise
Will Consult The Word Of Truth
And
Trust In
And
Lean On The Lord Of Life
We Shall Know That
We Have Nothing To Fear!
Almighty God Is In Control!

The Prince Of The Power Of The Air
Isn't Going To Be For Much Longer
Taking Up Space
Using Up Good Time
And
Whispering Evil In Unwary Men's Ears!

The Fact Of The Matter ...

Rewriting The Bible
Will Not Render Prophecy Untrue!

Adding And Or Subtracting From The Word
Will Only Cause A Curse From Almighty God
To Land Upon Those Who Did Not
Their Due Diligence Do!

Burning Books Will Not Change History
And
Burning Or Beheading Innocent People 

Will Not Make A Lie True!

Let Your Steps Be Ordered ...

Going To The Savior Redeemer

- The Lord Christ -
Is 

The Only True And Safe Way To Live
Because
He Is The Author Of Life
And
He, It Is
That Will Cause The Martyrs
And
The Faithful Dead Again To Live!

That Is The Sure Word Of Prophecy

The Secure Promise Given!

It Is Often Necessary And Good
To Do A Confab
To See How Time Is Tending
And
In Wisdom
- Freely Given To All So Desiring -
Accept That Jesus Christ The Righteous
Is
The Sacrificed One
Who For Our Soul's Salvation
Already Paid The Living-Dying Man's Tab!

What Are You Eating!?!

Is It The Gospel Truth!?!

What's Eating You!?!

Do You Really Know

That

It's Not A Devilish Lie!?!

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

The Living Word Of Almighty God

Stands Sure ... Forever!!

A Word To The Wise Is Always Sufficient!

A Life Built Solely On Intellectual Greatness

And
Material Wisdom
Leads To A Life Given Over To Idolatry
Which Encourages One To Deify Vice

And
Will Only Lead The Sinful Soul
The Holy Living God To Defy
And
To Daily Indulge Corruptions
And
Abominable Practices
More And More Bold!
The Heart Will Be Gross And Cold!

When One's Eyes Look In
Look Down
And
Look All Around
The Visual Feast Calls
Like Folklore's Bewitching Siren's Sound
And
Satisfying Self Is Made
God On The Heart's Throne
And
Experimental
Experiential Living
Is All That Allegedly Delights
Or Supposedly Uplifts
The Acknowledged And Known Carnal Soul!

Education
Wealth

And
Access To The World's Great Houses
Will Never Satisfy
And
The Continual Sinking Into 

Deeper And Darker Damnable Depravity
Is All That Will Suffice
The Acquisitive Soul's Greedy Eye!

Look Around!
Look Around!
See!
The Greedy Stomach Cannot Be Filled!

Look Around!
Look Around!
Hear!
There Is The Sound Of Debauched Merry-Making!
Hear Also The Cries Of Innocence Destroyed!
Hear Also The Plea Of The Soul
Looking
Longing
For The Dear Place That Is Truly Home!

Drugs!
Alcohol!
"Changing Sex!"
Remaking Self To Be Relevant!
Demands For Popular Attentions!
Seeking Bodily Satisfaction
And
Urging The Self Toward First Place
In The Public Domain
To Cover The Longing Of The Soul
That Needs Its Creator
- Who Is The Holy God -
Will Never Find For That Soul
It's True Fulfillment
With The Offered-Up Fripparies Of
The Base And Damned Fraud!

Friend,
I Implore You:
Seek Christ And His Righteous
If
It Is Your Desire
Into The Living Kingdom To Be Saved!

Deny Self!
Deny Sin!
Deny Satan
And
The Soul's Savior Seek
And
Know Of A Surety That
You Must Be Humble!

You Must Have A Soul Meek!

You Must Not Seek The First Place
Unless It Is Your Heart's Desire
Your Brethren To Serve
And
You Must Not Accrue To Yourself Riches
That To Help Others
Will Never Be Disbursed!

The High And The Lofty
The Proud And The Profane
Nor
The One Who Does Not
His Need Of The Savior See
Will Never Have Peace With Almighty God
And
Will Never Enter
The Saints Promised And Sure
Great And Glorious Reward!

The Earth Is Man's School!
The Second Coming Is Man's Graduation
And
Only Those Who Were

Who Are Diligent
And
By Jesus Christ's Enduring Faith
Faithfully Completed
Their Necessary Earthly Education
May Lay Claim To What The Savior Has Promised
And
Prepared
For Those Willing Sin-Overcomers!

Please, I Beseech You

Seek The Lord Christ Now
While The Door Of Mercy Is Open!!
Accept The Free Salvation Now
While Blessed Grace Is To All, Free!
Pick Up Truth
Which Now Is In The Street Cast Down
And
Stop Exchanging
Calling
Bitter, Sweet
Darkness, Light
Lie, Truth
Wrong, Right
Inordinate Affection, A Delight
And
The Savior Of Mankind

An Enjoyment Of Life Blight!

I Implore You

To Please Take Truth Into Your Inward Parts

And
Repent Of Known Sin
So That You May Be Saved!

Firmly, With A Thus Saith The Lord

Deny The Liar
And
His Smoke And Mirrors Entertainments
And
Choose To Live For And Love
The Lord Jesus Christ
And
You Will Receive
To Forever Enjoy
Heavenly Elevation!

Jesus Christ Saves To The Uttermost!
The Saved Are Sin-Free!
They Speak Without Guile
And
The Savior Is Their Life-Guide!

The Holy Spirit Is Their Comforter
And
The Holy Angels Influence Them For Good
And
They Are Their Protection
And
These Children Of The Great God

Do Not Indulge Themselves
With Inordinate Affections!

Heaven Is Home!
Christ's Followers Never Walk Alone
And
They
- Without Exception -
Realize And Accept
That Jesus Christ For Their Own Sin
Did Completely Atone!

I Encourage You To Please Pray To God The Father
In The Name Of God The Son
Under The Direction Of God The Holy Spirit
For Your Life Of Sin
And
Satisfying Self
To Forever Be Done! 

Please Pray For The Brethren

And
Ask The Lord To Help You To Exercise Daily Faith

And

Fall On The Rock And Broken
And, TherebyAccept Your Reserved-In-Heaven Place!

Turn Away From Idols!
Cultivate A Deep Love For Almighty God's Truth!
Bless Others and Bless The Eternal God
And
In The Fullness Of Time
By Almighty God's Appointing
You Shall Enjoy Eternal Youth!

Remember, Friend
Only Jesus Christ Saves!
Only Jesus Christ Gives The Soul True Peace!
Only Jesus Christ The Soul Satisfies!
Only Jesus Christ Provides Eternal Treasures
And
Those Treasures Without Measure!

Friend,
Be Not Proud And Self-Sufficient!
Humble Yourself Under The Mighty Hand Of Almighty God
And
Accept The Plan Of Salvation
And
Your Own Soul
Save! 

The Sophistries Of Satan Will Surely Fail

But
The Truth Of The Living God Will Forever Stand

And 
You, Alone, Will Decide
Whether You Will Become A Citizen Of
The Heavenly Land!

Thanks Kindly For Listening!
In Jesus Christ's Name
Please Have A Blessed Day!
Peace Be Unto You!

Time For A Think ...!

You Are A God-Fearing Christian!

Have You Considered
The Difference Between

The Worldly ...
"Things Happen!"AND
The Biblical ...

"All Things Work Together For Good...!?"

Have You Considered
The Difference Between
A Life Consecrated To Christ
AND
The Christless Life Dedicated To Vice?

Have You Considered
The Difference Between
A Heart For God
AND
The Heart That Is Its Own God?

Have You Considered
The Difference Between
The Lord Of Life
AND
The Life Of The Lordly?

Have You Considered
The Difference Between
"Go Ye Into All The World And Preach The Gospel ...!"
AND
"Go Around The World And Eat!?"

Have You Really Considered
- Truly Contemplated -
The Difference Between

• Satan And The Savior
• Truth And Error
• Fact And Fiction
• Angels And Demons

AND

• Faith And Doubt?

Do You Realize Or Recognize

That You Been Touched By Grace
AND
Held In The Arms Of Mercy?

What Do Think About ...

Standing In Truth Versus Dying In Error?

Living To Love
Versus
Loving To Live
Versus
Living For Loving
Versus
Loving Living?

Have You Ever Really Thought On:

God Is Good All The Time!
AND
All The Time God Is Good!?
Do We Even Appreciate What Is Good About God
AND
God's Goodness To A Fallen Race
Now Filled With Beyond Wise Ingrates?

Stop For A Moment
And Think On ...

Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor
And Are Heavy Laden
And I Shall Give You Rest!
... Take My Yoke Upon You
And Learn Of Me
And Ye Shall Find Rest
... Unto Your Souls!

Receive Rest For The Body
AND
Find Rest For The Soul!

How Is It Possible
To Get Rest By Carrying A Yoke?

Have You Thought On The Fact
That Learning Of Christ
The Meek And Lowly One In Heart
Causes One To Find ... Rest?!

Have You Thought
Even For A Mere Moment
On The Statements:

"The Lord Jesus Thinks On Me!"

"I Go To Prepare A Place For You ...

I Will Come Again And Receive You Unto Myself

That Where I Am There Ye May Be Also?!

And ...

What Of:

They That Wait Upon The Lord

Shall Renew Their Strength ...

Mount Up With Wings As Eagles ...

Run And Not Be Weary ... Walk And Not Faint?!
AND
I Waited For The Lord And He Inclined Unto Me?!

No Justice - No Peace
AND
The Peace Of God Passes Understanding
AND
Lean Not To Your Own Understanding?!

Have You Considered
What It Means When Christ Said:

 

AND

When Man Says:

He Who Has The Most Toys Win?!

How Do YouLive In The World
AND
Not Be Of The World
IF
You Are In Christ?!

What Is The Difference Between:

Giving Thanks With A Grateful Heart
AND
Politely Saying: "Thanks!"

Fear God!
AND
Do Not Fear!

How Does One Yield To God?

Can Yielding To God

Be Likened To Yielding The Right Of Way

In A Traffic Situation?

Who Is Driving Your Life?

How Is One A Slave To Whom He Obeys
When Jesus Sets The Captive Free
AND
Says:

Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice! 

AND

Disobedience Is As The Sin Of Witchcraft! 

AND

IF You Love Me
Keep My Commandments?

AND

 

Consider That ...

A Worldly Mind Has Objections 
To Every Statement
Every Saying
Every Commandment Of God
For
Being Given Over To A Carnal Mind
He Has No Insight
Into The Things Of God!

Carnal Things
Are Understood Carnally!
Spiritual Things
Are Discerned Spiritually
FOR
The Proof Of This
Is In The Statement Of God:

Come ... Let Us Reason Together!

Which Statement Is Not An Attribute Of The Fraud!

Satan Is Free
To Freely Lie ... Faithfully!

Jesus Christ
- The Living God -
Is Faithful
AND
Offers Eternal Life Free To All
Freely!

Truth Cannot Be Bent
Be Turned
Be Covered
Or
Be Colored!

Truth Stands Up On Its Own Merits! 

Truth Cannot
- By Man Nor Satan -
Be Lowered!

Truth
May Will
Be Cast Down In The Street
BUT
What Does That Change
When He That Is The Truth
Is High And Lifted Up
Settled
Reigning
ANDEnthroned
In Heaven?

What Does It Profit A Man
To Gain The Whole World
AND YET
Lose His Own Soul
When
For A:

"Lord, Save Me!"

He Can Leave Satan 
AND
His Like
To The Good Offices Of Christ Jesus 
The Eternal God!

Why Do We Trust
The Marked-For-Death Dying
When We Can Trust Wholly On Him
Who Conquered Sin And Death
By
- Of His Own Self -
From Death Arising
AND
Rising Up
Glorified
To Receive The Kingdom's Throne
AND
Not Accept The Words Of Those
Who Can't For Their Own Sins
Hope To Atone?

Why Do We Worry When
We Can Wait On Almighty God?

It Must Be Said ...

I Look Forward To The Day
When I Shall
- In Peace -
See My Lord Christ
When
Touch Me!
Handle Me! 

AND
Let Us Break Bread Together!
Will No Longer Be A Hope
BUT
The Thing Faith-To-Face Nice!

I Look To The Day
When Hope Is Realized
When All Self-Denials
Will Be Proved To Have Been Worth
All Of Life's Trials
When With My Own Eyes
In My Own Perfected, Immortalized, Flesh
I Shall Jesus
Who
- For My Salvation -
Took On Man-Death
To Get Me And My Kind
The Christ-Life
Which Is
The Way Back To The Eternal God
AND
Out Of The Decimating Clutches
Of The Evil One
Who Thought That He Could Kill ... God!
Oh, Foolish, Wicked, Satan.

Brethren, Beloved
We Know Of A Surety

That The Eternal God Is Not Mocked

So ...With Faithful Consideration
- By Contemplation -
Answer The Questions!

Do The Comparisons
AND
Of Your Own Life
- For Your Own Soul's Sake -
Take Stock
AND
Take Your Salvation
- Your Gift -
Free From The Living God
AND
Turn Your Eyes
- Fixedly -
Upon Christ Jesus
Who Paid Dearly
- How Much We Shall Never Know -
To Get You Me Us
Out
From Under
Satan, The Fraud!

Jesus Saves ... To The Uttermost!
Come To Jesus Now
AND
In The Great Day
- That Appointed Time -
Join
AND
Be 
A Forever Part Of 
The Heavenly Host!

It Must Also Be Said ...

IF

The God You Presently Serve

Requires You
- For Him It Her Them -
To Be Eyes, Ears, Mouth, Feet
Sustainer
AND
Provider
It Is Time To Trade Up
To The Living Loving God
Who Does Not Sleep
BUT
Loves To Count
AND
Account For
AND
Care For His Sheep!
He Does Them Safely Keep!
I Am ONE Of Them!
Won't You Join Me?!

Praise God!

Bless God!

Deny The Fraud

AND

Accept

The Righteous Man's Reward!

PRAYER: Father, Forgive My Folly!

Father,
Forgive Me My Folly!
For A Moment, Yesterday
In A Fit Of Seeming Madness
I Lived In The Bold Sight Of My Eyes
And
Discontent Near Well Consumed Me!

Please, Won't You Fix 

This Deceitful Man-Heart That Is Mine?

I Am Not Hungry!
I Am Not Naked!
I Have A Sound Roof Over My Head

And
I Have Options:

Eat Don't Eat!
Sleep Don't Sleep!
Walk! 

Run!
Speak To A Brother Sister!
Read A Book!
Do A Stitch!
Feel The Warmth
Of The Sun

And
The Son
And Yet ...!

Father,
I Believe In You!
I Trust You!
I Love You!
I Bless Your Holy Name
And 

I Have The Blessing
Of Your Provision For My Needs
And 

I Know I Serve The Eternal
The Great God Of Grace
Who Has Made
In His Home
For Me A Heavenly Place
And

It Is Only Because Of Your Spirit
That I Realized 

Recognized

What A Mere Moment
Of Inward Focus
Can Create For A Soul!

Lord,
What Happens To Those
Who Have Not Christ
For Their Locus?!

I Have Little
But It Is Enough!
Many Have Much More
But

In The Round Of Daily Discontent
They Desire Great Houses
To Warehouse Their Stores
Of Goods Not Good
Grand Things Not Great
And 

For Satisfaction
To The Devil They Gradually Speed
By Locking You Outside
Their Swollen
Prideful Heart's
Rusting And Locked Gate!

Pity Them!

Pity Us All, Lord!

Let Not Satan 

- By Fraud -

The Faithful Few 

Decimate!

Father,
I Do Not Covet
Another Man's Goods
Nor The Person Of Their Spouse
Their Mechanical Cattle
Their Land
Nor Their House
But 

What I Do Covet 

Is Your Favor
Your Blessing Today
Please, In Mercy
Rid Me Of Those Traits Of Character
- Inherited Or Cultivated -
Those Spirits
Of Discontent
Hate Greed Lust
Faithlessness
Doubt
And
Will To Sin
That Satan May Exploit
To Ride Me Around
Causing Me To Live
In Ungodly Fear
And 

Sinful Doubt!
Lord, Give Them All The Damnation Rout!

I Am Yours, Lord!
Help Me To Guard My Heart
By Not Focusing Inward
But Out And Up
By Doing The Blessed Work Of My Master
And
Offering To Help Another Soul
Be It By Hand Up
Or Help Out!

Father,
The Living Word
Is Daily Being Proven True
And 

With The Working Faith

Of The Forefathers

And 

In The Believing Faith Given By The Holy Jesus
In Whose Name I Make This Plea
Lord,
For My Present Help
- In Humility -
I Look To Thee!
For Your Coming Kingdom

Please Save And Seal Me!
AMEN.

PRAYER : Open My Eyes, Lord!

Oh, Lord,

You Fill My Eyes

And

I Beseech You, Please

To Let Me Not Be Impressed By

The Vaunted Temporal Prosperity

That Causes Its Recipients

To Believe That

They're Godlike

And

True Divinity!

Let Me Not To Be Impressed By

Possession Of Prized Things

That Will Surely Like Thin Paper

Fabulously Burn

And

Help Me, Loving Father

Help Me

Your Blessed Grace

Not To Spurn!

When I Awaken

On The New Day

Help Me Ever To Thank You

For The Blessings

For Which I Cannot Pay!

For The Love That You Bestow

For The Protections

Against The Evil

That I, Facing

Do Not Know!

When I Rest, Lord

Let Me Rest Humbly

Quietly

In Your Fear

Knowing

That The Eternal God

My True Father 

Is Ever Near

And 

Gives Ear To My Prayers!

Help Me Speak My Heart To You

Knowing That You Are Both

God And Friend, True!

Help Me Not To Indulge

In The Useless Thought

That I Can Myself Save

In Life

Nor After Death

In The Arising From The Grave

And

Help Me Not To Fall

For High Flung Base-Born Fallacies

Comforting Myself

With Very Real Lost-Men Lies

And

Denying Eternally Real Saving Truths!

Open My Eyes, Lord

To See My True Condition

And

Help To Understand

And

Accept That

Without Jesus

I'm Facing A Collision

Of

What Is

And

What Almighty God Says Is To Be

And

Help Me To Firmly Decide

In Heavenly Love

Forever To Abide!

Father,

Help Me Not To Be Ashamed

Or

Afraid

To Share My Faith - It's Real

And

Help Me To Stand Up For Truth And Right

Even If My Temporary Temporal Standing

It Does Well And Truly Blight!

You Promised Never To Leave Me

Nor Forsake Me!

I Am Depending On You, Lord!

Father,

You Promised

That You Have For Believers

A Thousand Ways To Save

Ways That We Know Of

And

Thank God

We Know You

And

That Is Enough!

Help Us To Hold Up

So That We May Stand Up!

Help Me And The Brethren

To Hold Fast To The Blessed Hope

And

Help Us By Grace

Through Dear Mercy

With This Life To Daily Cope!

Father,

Gross Wickedness Abounds!

So, As You Have Promised

Let Grace Multiply

And

Help Us Who Truly Believe

To Make Our Calling

And

Election

Sure

So That In The Great Day

Unto Jesus Christ 

We Shall Go

To Live With Him Forevermore!

Grant Us The Victory

Over Sin

So That Through The Pearly Gates

We Shall Have The Right To Walk In!

Save The Beloved

For With These Petitions

In Jesus' Name I Plea!

I Love You, Lord!

AMEN.

CHRISTIAN JOURNEYS: The Songs Of Faith We Sing

Dear Ones,

If We But Take The Time, We Would See That The Great Song Writers Of The Christian Faith Painted Musical Pictures Of The Journey That Is A Christian's Lot! 

I Have Taken The Liberty To Thread A Few Of Those Pictures Together!

I Pray That You Will  Appreciate The Beautiful Scene That Unfolds!

Betty
