LUKEWARM CHRISTIANITY: Harmless Chameleon!?!

There Is No Pride In Prayer!
There Is No Desperation In Godly Fear!
There Is To Be No Reluctance In Sorrow For Sin
Nor In Praying And Saying:

Father,
I Need You!
Please Come And Dwell Within!

Neither A Reluctant Worshipper
Nor A Reluctant Worker
Are A Blessing To The Eternal God
AND
Are No Blessing To Themselves
AND
I Say Unto, Brethren
You Make Yourselves Available Playgrounds For Satan
- He Who Desires The Worship Of The Eternal God -
When Lukewarmness Is The Highest Temperature
Evident In Those Who Confess The Lord Christ
AND
Energetically Say To The World:

We Love And Serve The Holy God!

Wait A Minute!
Isn't Lukewarmness The Laiodicean
The Last Christian Church's Backslidden Condition?!

Jesus Is Going To Spit Them Out!

Jesus Don't Like Middling Tea!
They Better Change To Hot
Or Even Cold ...!

... How Can You Even Think To Say "Or Cold?!"

I Did Not Say It First!
Jesus Christ Did!

But, Why?!

Think About It ...

If You're Hot
The World Knows You're Hot!
You're Doing The Lord's Business
And Happy, Truly Happy, About It!

If You're Cold
The World Knows You're Cold!
You're Doing The Devil's Business
And Happy, Truly Happy, About It ...!

... You Need To Bite Your Tongue
On Both Sides
At The Same Time For Say That!

For What?!
For Speaking The Truth?!

Nobody Could Possibly Be Happy
Or As You Said, Truly Happy
Doing The Devil's Business!

Ladye, You Need To Take That Up
With The Lord
For
I Hear And See People Humming ...!

... Singing And Snapping Fingers ...!

... When They're Doing To Unsuspecting Others
Devilishly Dirty Deeds!

I Hear That!

Don't Go So Fast! 

What About The Lukewarm People?!

A Lukewarm Christian
Is 

A Creature Truly, Truly, Truly, Dangerous! 

This Is A Chameleon!

Don't Like Chameleons!

Could You For Once Use A Whole Sentence?!

Sure, I Can!
I Do Not Like Chameleons!
They Are Deceitful Creatures
And A Lukewarm Christian
Is A Creature Likewise
Best To Be Avoided
For
Their "Walk" With God
Is Nothing But A Lie!

Look In The Book!!

Indeed!

Revelation 3:

Rich And Increased With Goods
And Have Need Of Nothing!

Now That Is A Lie
If I Even Know What Constitutes A Lie!

Indeed!

Think About It ...

Who For A Converted Christian
Walking
Waiting
Working
For The All-Seeing
All-Knowing
Ever-Present
All-Feeling God
Could Or Would Ever Say:

"Lord, I Don't Need Anything ... From YOU

My Creator
My Provider
My Sustainer
My Savior
My Redeemer
My One True Friend?!

No One!!

A Lukewarm Christian Is Like
An In-And-Out Burger
A New York Garbage Plate Special ...!

... All De Worl' Up In Dey!

Indeed
AND
That Is Why Jesus Christ Says:

You Are Wretched
Miserable
Poor, Blind
AND
Naked!

All Uh De Business Dun Expose!

And, How!

Brethren,
It's Worse Than You Think!

Things Don't Make A Man Rich
AND
A Lukewarm Christian Is Like
A Manchineel Tree In An Apple Orchard

Strychnine In Drinking Water

A New Penny Covered In Krazy Glue

A Tool Of The Devil!

Indeed!

Frazer?!

Yes, Percy?!

You Got Any Other Word Beside ... Indeed?!

Indeed, I Do! 

If You're Cold

The Lord Can Still Do Something For You!
You May Be Convinced To Cross Over

But If You're One Of Those Bright Lights

Who Don't Need God

- Or Anything From God -

You're Out Of Luck

Because

You Will Have Pyrite ... Fool's Gold

Instead Of Imperishable Gold

And

Habitation In The Everlasting Fold!

Witness!!!

If You're Up

You're Up!

If You're Down

You're Down!

By If You're Only Half Way Down

You're Neither Up Nor Down!

(Childhood Verse)

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

A True Christian

Cannot Reside

In No Man's Land

Between

Faith And Doubt

And

Still Gain Eternal Prosperity!

HAPPY SABBATH + The Light Of Life Delights!

The Omniscient God Of Love 

Is

My Hope

My Help!

The Innocent  Lamb Of God 

Is

My Savior
My Beginning
My End!

The Holy Spirit Of God 

Is

My Teacher

My Comforter
My Guide!

The Holy Angels Are My Companions

My Good Influencers
My Protection! 

The Conquering King

Is

My Redeemer

My Friend
My Lord
AND
My God!

The Word Of God 

Is

My Clean Lamp 

Giving Off Bright And WHite Light
Showing Me Where To Plant My Feet
On The Straight And Narrow Way 

To Eternal Life! 

I Have No Need To Fear Circumstance
For The Eternal God
The Lord Of My Life Is In Control
AND
He Not A Liar
Nor A Purveyor Of Chance Or Happenstance

BUT
The Lord Of Life
The God Of Order
The God Who Made All
Whose Wisdom Is Holy
Not Flawed!

My Shepherd

Is

The Lord Most High

The Shepherd Of Rest In Whom Is No Lie
The Master Of The Winds
The Waves 

The Sea
The God Of My Salvation
The God-Man Who Left Heaven
AND
Lived In Time
To Save A Wretch
A Sinner
Like Me
Like Thee!

I Am A Child Of The Eternal God
Because I Have 

Chosen 

To Forsake The Ways Of The Fraud
Because 

My Teacher, My Guide
The Spirit Of God
Who In Me Now Does Abide
Called Me Out Of Darkness
AND
Into Holy God's Marvelous Light
Having Convicted Me Of My Sin
Having Convinced Me  

Known Sin 

To Confess

AND
To Repent Of The Pass
AND
To Forsake The Unholy Way
Having Converted Me To Truth

AND
Unto Walking On The Straight And Narrow Way!

He Is The Same Spirit Of God

Who Shows Me The Lord Of Love
Who Loves Me Sacrificially
AND
Encourages Me Daily
Moment By Moment
To Love The Lord Knowledgeably
Knowingly
Self-Sacrificially
Completely
Faith Working Actively
Never Complacently
Ever Truthfully
Never Conveniently
AND
To Live In The Light Of Life
AND
Never To Find Life In Gross Darkness A Delight!

The Holy Angels
Excelling In Strength
Are My Influencers For Good
My Protection

As I Walk Towards
The City Of God
Staying
On The Straight And Narrow Way!

They Can't Force Me To Do Good!
They Can't Stop Me From Doing Wrong
BUT
They Will Influence Me Towards

The Good
The Blessed
The Best
BECAUSE
I Have Given To Jesus Christ The Lord

- My Lord -
My Will And My Way
AND THEY- The Workers With A Blessed

Vested

Interested In My Salvation -
Labor Faithfully
To Help Me To Stay Shielded
Hedged In By Truth
Protected From Error
On The King's Highway!

The Glorious Lord

Is

My Light

My Salvation
My Joy
My Song
My Day
My Delight
My Bread
My Water
My Blessing
My Cure
My Hope
My Help
My Way To Heaven
The Door Secure!

The Lord Is My Portion!

The Blessing of The Lord Makes Me Rich
Adds No Sorrow
Makes Me Free
Gives Me Sight
Takes Away Sin's Blight
AND ISTo My Soul

A Constant Delight!

In Jesus Christ
I Am Safe!
I Live Though I Die!
I Sing Though I Cry!
I Rest Even If I Can't Sleep!
I Am Blessed Though I'm By Man Cursed!
I Run The Race For Life Even If I Can't Walk Through Life
I Stand In Truth Even If I Were Bed-Bound
I Live In Light Though Darkness Surrounds!
I Am Safe
In Christ Jesus!

In Jesus Christ
I Am As A Tree
Planted
By The Water!
My Leaves
Shall Not Wither
AND
I Shall Bear Good Fruit
In Season
AND
All That I Do
According To The Will Of The Great I AM
Shall Prosper
Because
He Is Not A Man

AND

He Cannot Lie!

I Have The Spilled Blood Of

The Innocent Guaranteeing It!

My Portion In Eternal Life

Rests ... Rests

Firmly Upon It

AND

I Am Now Loving And Living For Jesus

Because

He Loves Me First

AND

I Desire To Receive And Share

His Eternal Joy

AND

With Him Enjoy It!

Lord,

Keep Me Faithful!

You, Alone, Are Able!

Bless Me To Do Thy Will

And

Not To Fall Away

To Lying Satan's Fables!

In Jesus Christ's Name

Grant Me The Purchased

Over-Sin Victory!

AMEN!

Gratitude Is A Grace!

Happiness Does Not Come From More
AND
Sorrow Does Not Come With Less!
Happiness Is Found In Jesus Christ The Lord
AND
This Is A Realization
That The Human Soul Must Confess!

More Is A Load
That Greedy Men Carry!
Sorrow Is A Load
That The Longing Soul Carries
AND
Both May Be Removed
IF
We Will ALL To The Lord
AND
Get Out From Under
The Canopy Of The Fraud!

PRAYER:

Lord God Almighty

Thou Holy One True

I Am Thankful For My Little Bit

For It Comes From You!

Let Me Not Envy

The Man That Has Much

For That Man's Much

Often Makes His Heart Clutch

With Worry

With Sorrow

With Necessity Not Needed

Because

He, Being His Own God

Has Not Your Eternal Word Heeded!

I Thank You, Lord

For Shelter

For Food

For Clothing

For Rest

And

I Surely Do Thank You For Christ Jesus

In Whose Heart I Am Blessed!

Grant Me The Grace

That Gratitude Brings

So That In The Great Day Coming

I Will My Benefactor's Praises

With All The Blessed Saints

Joyfully

Gratefully Sing!
I Love You, Lord
And
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Plead!

AMEN.

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

Man Has Real Eyes That See
But
True EyeSight
Comes From
Knowing
The Holy God!

Why Did You Do It?! + Prayers

KJV Isaiah 41
God Is With His People 10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
13 For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

Lord,

Have Mercy ... And Help Us!

Help Us To See That We Do Not

As True Believers

Walk Alone! 

Help Us To Trust You

Where We Can't 

With Our Mortal Eyes

Trace You!

Help Us To Unfailingly Love You In Faith

For 

- To Be Saved Into Your Eternal Kingdom -

We Must!

I Have Been Painstakingly Reading The Facebook And Instagram Posts Of A Devout, Kind-Hearted, Christian ... Who Committed Suicide.

I Have Been Reading The Responses To, Tributes About, And Notes Of Regret From Ordinary Friends, School Mates, Co-Workers, Family, And Christian Friends Of A Committed, Active, Working For Christ, Praising, Believing, Trusting, Grateful For Salvation, Hopeful For Redemption Christian Who, Hours After Celebrating Faith In The Lord Christ, And Leading Out In Worship In The Sanctuary, Committed Suicide.

Not One Solitary Soul Saw It Coming.

All Hearts Are Torn And Are Sorrowing.

This Picture Makes My Blood Run Cold Because There Are Too Many Hard Questions That Need Answering ... And No Obvious ... And Soft ... Comfortable Answers Forthcoming.

This Is The Third Time, In The Last 20 Years That I Know Of A Christian Committing Suicide:

Demographics:

One Female, Two Males
One Married, Two Singletons
Two Teachers, One Casual Worker
One Doctor, One Master, One Learner
One Twenties, One Thirties, One Fifties
One With Children, Two Without
Two Professionally Known, One Virtual Unknown
All Believers In The Lord Christ
All Dearly Loved
Not. One. Clue. Given. ... As To What Was To Come.

Legacy:

• Doubt About What Love Can Do
• Doubt In The Love Of God
• Doubt In The Grace Of God
• Doubt In The Salvation Of God
• Doubt As To Whether, Indeed, JESUS PAID IT ALL.

Questions:

• Why?
• Where Was Faith?
• What Is Our - Not God's - Definition Of Faith? 
• Why Were You Leaning On Your Own Understanding?
• Why Was Suicide The Only Option?
• Where Was Our Jesus? 
• Where Was The Holy Spirit? 
• Where Was The Guardian Angel?
• How Did Satan Pull This Off? 
• Why Was Satan Able To Pull This Off?
• Did You Forget To Believe?
• Was Your Problem Bigger Than Your Faith In The Holy God?
• Why Did You Choose To Give Up On Ever-Sufficient Grace?
• Did You Forget, Or Momentarily Disremember, That Forgiveness For Known Sin Is Free By Confession And Repentance?
• Did You Forget That There Is Mercy For Me (You)?
• Did You Forget That Grace Is Bigger Than Sin?
• Were Your Eyes So Clouded With Sorrow For And Over Self That You Willingly Chose To Close Them, And No Longer Be Able To See Christ And His Sacrifice ... Just For You?
• Is There The Almighty God?
• Is Almighty God Really Real To Every Man?
• Is The Almighty God Able?
• Is The Almighty God Capable?
• What Is There That The Almighty God Can't Do?
• What More Could The Almighty God Have Done?

Jesus Christ IS The Only Answer.
What Was Your Question To Him?

How Do Christ's Sacrifice, Purchased Salvation, And The Very Public Actions Of An Assumed Born-Again, Regenerated Sinner Called Christian Turned Suicide, Intersect?

What About The 6th Commandment - Thou Shalt Not Kill? Exodus 20:13

Suicide Is Self-Murder!

What Of No Murderer Getting Into Heaven?

KJV Revelation 22
15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

What Of Murderers' Only Inheritance Being The Second Death?

KJV Revelation 21
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Is There Extenuating Circumstance That Would Permit A Suicide Into Heaven?

Does The Almighty God Change His Word To Suit Our Circumstance, Our Situation, Or
Our Sorrow?

KJV Malachi 3
6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

KJV Hebrews 13
8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Why Do We Doubt When We As Christians Have That Certain Hope?!

Why Does The Bible, The Living Word, The Word Of God, The Transcript Of God's Character Say ... Do Not Doubt?

AND

Warns About The Result Of Doubt?

Do We Not Understand, Or Truly Believe, That Doubt Is A Gross Sin Against The Eternal God Who Gave His All, His Best, So That We May Have ALL - Absolutely Everything -
That We Could Need To Survive, To Spiritually Prosper, In This Vale Of Tears?

When, When, When Will We Start To Believe - As Does A Child - That Our Father's Arms Are Ever Safe, Ever Comforting, Always Comfortable, Always Available, Always Here?

Brethren,

These Are Dread Times In Which We Live.

I Shall Here Utter My Usual Refrain:

Things Are Not What They Appear To Be!

I Shall Here Beseech You:

Do Not Trust Your Carnal Eyes!
Do Not Trust Your Emotions!
Do Not Build Your House On Feelings!
Do Not Walk On The Road Called "What Will People Say!"

Do Not Buy Into The Social Media Garbage Of

Shaming!
Being Shamed!
Feeling Too Ashamed To Live!

AND
Suicide Is A Cure For Life's Hurts!

Sin Is What Exposes Our Nakedness, And Causes Our Shame ... Before Almighty God!

The Living God Doesn't Shame People!
He Calls Us To Salvation!
He Shows Us The Way To Life!
He Desires Us To Drop The Dirt
AND
Carry The Crosses Of Life
To The Christ Of Calvary's Cross
Where There Is Always Room
For One More Sinner
Who Wants To Safely Get Home
Out Of Sin's Decimating Cold!

Please Look Up
AND
Know That
ALL
Of Our Help
Comes From The Lord
The God Of Our Salvation!

Let Us Build Our Hope
On Nothing Less Than Jesus Christ's Blood
AND
His Righteousness!
He Paid The Price
All Our Sin To Cleanse
AND
The Prayer Of Faith
Brings Us To His Home!
He Will Us Defend!

On Christ The Solid Rock
Please, Brethren ... STAND!
Satan Is The Carnal Liar

The Father Of Lies
AND
His Actions Are All Grand Stand!

Satan Is A Toothless Lion!
Christ Did Him Defang
So
Call Him By His Real Name!
He Can't Take You
Out Of Christ's Hand!

Let Us Believe The Living Word
The Truth
The Given Light
The Way Of God
AND
Not The Lost Goat's Twisted Word!

Let Us Love Our Lord Jesus
AND
Trust
AND
WALK
In Our Daily Apportioned Faith! 

Satan Will Roar!
BUT
He Can't Touch You
Unless
You Doubt The Eternal And Almighty God
AND
With The Gross Liar Talk!

Don't Be An Eve! 

Don't Wander Away

AND

Don't Casually Indulge
In Useless Converse
With The Wily Fraud! 

Smoke And Mirrors
Are His Camouflage

So
Get Out Your Hammer Called Christ!
Turn On The Water Of Life!
Call Out The Holy Spirit!
AND
Do A Limpet
AND
Cling To Eternal Life!

Remember ...

The Crown Of Life
Is For Those Who 

Endure 

- To The End -

Carnal Strife
By
Clinging In Faith
To The Lord Christ!

There Is No Second Chance
No Do-Over
At Our One Human Life!

Live In Faith's Expectancy!

KJV Matthew 8
26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

Every Life Will Have Storms And Rough Seas!

TEARS ARE A LANGUAGE

THAT

GOD UNDERSTANDS!!

Finally ...

I Pray God That If I Ever Find Myself
In A Situation So Dire
That I Can't See The Way
That I Will
With My Cherished Mustard Seed Of Faith
My Hope
My Trust
My Belief
My Every Breath
Call Out
Cry Out
Plead
Beseech
Curse The Devil
Bless Christ
Run To The Rock
Shelter Under The Wings
Hold The Fort
Be Influenced By Good Angels
Be Chided By The Holy Spirit
Lean On Jesus
AND
Cast My Every Care On Him
AND RESTIn The Peace Which He Gives
- Which Passes Human Understanding -
To Awaken Refreshed
To See The Shining Sun

AND

Assuredly
The Son Of Righteousness
AND
Carry On
Walking In The Shadow Of The Cross
Praying The Promises
Looking Up To The Christ Of The Cross
So That I May Live Life In Christ Abundantly
AND
Not In The Lying Gospel Of Carnal Prosperity!

There Is No Hope In Death!

Cliche Or Not
Reach Out To Jesus
In Faith
By Faith
For Faith
AND
Live!

He Who Fights Sin 

AND

From The Devil Runs Away
Will Live To Fight In Jesus Christ's Faith
Another Day!

Hold On!
Don't Let Go ... Of Christ Jesus!

PRAYER:

Lord Of Mercy

Lord Of Grace

We, Your Children

Desire To See Your Face! 

The Battle Is Grievous!

The War Bitter!

The Strength Small!

Help Us, We Beseech You

Not To The Wiles

And

Whims Of The Devil

- In Surrender Of Faith - 

Fall!

In Jesus' Name, Save Us

Is Our Heartfelt Plea!

We Choose To Trust You At Your Word! 

AMEN.

AND
He Is Offering Eternity
To Me And To You
