HAPPY SABBATH + Refuse To Be Refuse!

 

Jesus Christ, The One Holy And Therefore Righteous

The God Wise And Therefore Just

The Forever Friend Who Is Therefore Faithful

Our Only Savior And Thus The Truth

Our Creator-God And Only Redeemer

Calls Us To His Side Via Confession And Repentance Of Sin! 

The Call Of Jesus Christ Gives Us Hope

And 

Our Walk With Jesus To The Father's House Of Joy And Peace 

In The Glorious Kingdom 

Is 

A Transformative One 

Because 

It Is Sanctifying ... Setting Us Apart

Changing Us Throughout Our Lives

For His Holy Use! 

Beloved, 

Since We Are Warned To Test The Spirits

And 

Also Cautioned About The Other Jesus 

And 

That Other Gospel

The Question Must Be Boldly Asked And Honestly Answered: 

"Is The Life That You Are Leading 

With The One You Call Savior, Lord, And God

Transforming You From A Sinner Bound For Hell 

Into A Saint Bound For Almighty God's Glory 

... Or ... 

Are You Being Affirmed

- Made Comfortable - 

In Your Cherished And Very Satisfying-To-The-Sense Sin

And 

Are Being Bamboozled Into Being A Self-Satisfied Fat Frog In Cold Water 

Scented With All Your Chosen Aromatics Of Forbidden Pleasure

In An Always Deep Pasta Pot Over A Gentle Flame!?!" 

Dear Ones, 

Never Follow The Prevailing Winds Of Change 

Nor The Always-Wrong Multitude! 

Do Not Move The Old Landmarks 

To Make Your Desired Building Fit Your Coveted Landscape! 

Stand In And For 

The Uncomfortable But Needful, Necessary Transformative Grace Of God 

And 

Refuse To Be Made Refuse 

By The Trendy Affirmative Action Of The Accuser Of The Brethren

The Adversary Of Souls 

Who Has No Good Place To Call Home 

And

Has Your Eternal Destruction 

As His Soon-To-Be-Obliterated-Life Goal! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ... 

Low Riders Don't Like High Roads! 

Affirming Sin Aids In Self-Destruction! 

Be Transformed By The Renewing Of Your Mind! 

Walk With The Lord Jesus In The Light Of Life ... In Truth! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Be Transformed ... By Truth!

 

I Stand Before You A Sinner ... Reformed

A Liar ... Transformed

A Sinner Turned Saint Of God

A Child Reborn! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Allow Yourself To Be Fooled! 

All Men Are Liars ... There Is No Dispute

For That Is The Word Of Almighty God

Shiloh - Prince Of Peace

The Light Of Life

The Way To The Father's House

The Living, Holy, Unchanging, Unchangeable Truth! 

Dear Ones, 

We Are Man, Mortal, Malleable, Movable

Miserable, Misguided ... Sad Truth 

But

In The Hands Of The Great Physician

The God Of Grace

The King Of Glory

We Make Peace With Almighty God 

And Then Our Fellowman

And

Walk Wisely In, For, And With Saving Truth

To Enter The Holy Land! 

Beloved, 

Truth Is! 

Truth Is Transformative! 

We, You And I, Are Transformable

So Let Your Mind, By Holy, Saving, Truth

Be Daily Renewed! 

Let The  Holy Spirit Lead So That 

You May Enduringly Stand Up For Christ Jesus With Zeal

And Thereafter

In The Appointed Hour

By The Holy Spirit Of Truth

- Who Leads Us Into All Truth - 

Be Eternally Sealed! 

Moment By Moment Aggressively Use 

Your Daily Gift Of Faith In Almighty God! 

Peace!

Join The Clean-Heart Club!

We Keep A Clean House 

But 

Have Dirty Minds! 

We Display Beautiful Faces 

But 

Practice Ugly Habits! 

We War With Each Other 

But 

With The Devil ... Not So Much!

We Decry Bad Behavior In Others 

But 

Excuse It In Ourselves! 

We Elevate Known Wickedness In Our Favorites As Self-Expression 

And

Denigrate Faithful Christians As Holy-Rollers And Jesus-Freaks! 

Beloved, 

Upside-Down Back-To-Front "Wisdom" 

Is 

Worthless, Useless, And Pointless 

For Both Seller And Buyer 

And

Believing That Satan Is Your Friend 

Because 

He Says Do What You Desire

And That 

Wrong Is Right 

Is 

Going To Book You A Berth In The Lake Of Fire! 

We Cannot Paint Truth Black 

And 

Color Lies White 

In The Belief That It Will Change Their Character: 

It Won't! 

Let's Just Accept That The Word Of God 

Is 

Ever True 

And 

Is Good To Fix What Ails Me And You! 

Join The Clean-Heart Club: 

Look Up To 

And

Put On Jesus Christ 

And 

Really Live! 

Peace!

TRANSFORMED: Unmasking The Masked!

Is Your Mask On!?! 

Is Your Facial Expression Shellacked In Place!?! 

Does Anyone Know The Real You 

Or Are They Just Looking At The Someone That 

Time And Circumstance Grew!?! 

Beloved, 

We Have All Worn Masks Of One Kind Or Another 

At One Time Or Another 

But

As Children Of The Father

As The-Bought With The Blood Of The Son

As Those Comforted By The Holy Spirit

We, By Faith, May Set Aside The False Image 

And 

By The Love Of Jesus Christ ... The Great Physician

Display The True Me ... The True You! 

Our Savior Could Not Lie 

And 

Let Us Die Lost! 

He Had To Live The Truth 

And 

Die The Death 

So That We, Convicted Of Sin And Of Righteousness

May Ultimately In The Father's House Of Joy And Peace 

Eternally Live! 

Masks Cast Shadows Which Hide The True 

And 

Highlight The False: 

This Behavior Practiced By Satan 

Placed Our Lord Upon Calvary's Cruel, Accursed, Cross! 

Today Is The Day Of Salvation 

When We Must Throw Off The Mask Of Sin 

And 

Let The Light That Is The Life Of Our King Jesus 

Shine In Our Eyes 

Revealing Our New Lives! 

Nothing That Defiles May Enter The Glorious City 

And So 

I Beseech Us All To Get Rid Of Anything And Everything 

Which Will Stop Grace And Mercy 

From Transforming Our Lives! 

The Death-Mask Of Sin Is For A Time: 

Nothing That Bears The Stench Of Finite-Time 

Will Enter Eternity! 

Be Transformed: 

Renew Your Mind! 

Let The World See Jesus Christ In You! 

Smile: 

Drop Sin And Self 

And 

Keep Salvation 

And

Recognize That We Are At The Last Mile Marker 

On The Road To Home! 

Be Real! 

Get Ready! 

Be Redeemed! 

Peace!

DAMNED BY DESIRE: Your Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste!

 

What The Human Mind Can Conceive

The Human Hand Will Achieve! 

Your Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste Plotting 

And

Executing Evil 

Which Our Lord And God Plainly, Clearly, Says 

Has No Future! 

Satan Is Evil! 

Satan Is Angry ... And Raging

Because 

He Knows Of The Prophecy That Clearly States That 

He Has But A Short Time To Build His Damned Kingdom 

By Deceit, Deviltry, And Destruction! 

Satan Knows That 

He Has Already Placed His Metal Fork 

Into The Live, High-Voltage, Electrical Socket 

And 

The Direct Current 

Is

Flowing In His Direction! 

Soon The Power Surge 

Is 

Going To Strike His Already Condemned-For-Eternity Carcass 

And

When The Current Is Finally No Longer Running

He Will Have Been Thoroughly Consumed 

And 

Be Dust Under The Feet Of The Faithful Saints Of God! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Permit Your Face

Your Friends

Your Faults 

Or Your Feelings 

To Purchase You A One-Way Ticket To Damnation 

On Easy-Evil Express! 

Not A Single Soul 

Is 

Returning From That 

Excursion To Unbridled Fire And Fury! 

The Facts Remain ... 

The Ways Of The World Do Not Look Good On

Professing, Practicing, Praying Christians: 

Resist Temptation!

There Is No Sin In Being Tempted! 

Sin Comes

By

Submitting To Temptation! 

Resist The Already-Damned Devil: 

Almighty God Is Watching Over 

And 

Protecting 

And

Providing For You! 

All Temptations

That

You Personally Face

Are Common

To All Mankind!

 

Jesus Christ ... Our Lord And God

Was Cruelly Tempted

But

He Overcame That Vile Tempter With 

"It Is Written!" 

Aka

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Jesus Christ ... The King

Is 

Our Perfect Example:

Follow Him Faithfully ... Enduringly

And

Be Well

Blessed

And

Eternally Saved! 

Our Peace-Speaker

Is

The Promise-Keeper!

Be Transformed!

 

Pride Goes Before The Ignominious Fall ... From Grace
And 
The Unpleasantly Painful Broken Butt-Bone! 

Pride 

Is 

The Uniform Worn By All Who Choose To Be In 
The Satan Brigade

Keeping A Lot Of Ungodly Noise

And 

Celebrating The Party Line That Says

"We Do What We Want

And

We Belong Together!" 

Beloved, 

The Word Of God Is Truth! 

Truth Brings Light! 

Light Is Life 

And 

There Is No Life
No Light
And
No Truth In Anyone Who Walks In Pride

And 

Is Conformed To The Ways Of This Dying World! 

As Christians Committed To The Lord Christ

It Is Our Loving Duty To See To It

- By The Guidance 
And 
Correction Of The Holy Spirit 
Who Leads Us Into All Truth -

That We Permit The Light 
- The Word, Of The Living, Holy God -

To Change Us Into New Creatures 
With Gentle Speech - No Bitter Words
Kindly Deeds - No Public Broadcasting
Helping Hands - No Reminding People Of What We've Done For Them 

And

Living A Life That Says To The World That 

"Christ The King

Is

In Residence Here!" 

Thoughts Lead To Words!

Words Lead To Actions!

Actions Lead To A Character 

And

The Chosen Character 
Leads To The Personally-Chosen Final Destination! 

Brethren,

Let Us Permit Godly Thoughts To Lead Us 
To The King Of Glory 

Who Will Lead Us 
Through The Gates Of Heaven ... Our Real Home! 

Be Wary Of The Clamoring World 

And 

Be Wise Unto Salvation! 

Remember ...

Jesus Christ 
Is 
Our Only And True Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + EVANGELIZE: Elevate The Platform!

The Servants Of The Living God

Should Never Blend In With The Crowd!

They Should Stand Up
And
Stand Out

And

Since They Are Proclaimed
Ambassadors For The Lord Christ

They Should Always Have Something Momentous
Life-Changing
Soul Uplifting

To Joyfully, Urgently, Talk About!

The King Is Coming!

Are You Washed And Ready!?!

Do No Prating!

Do No Berating!

Just Speak The Truth In Righteousness 

Whether It Is In Season Or Out!

The Fact Is

We Have Good Fruit ... Good Food

That The World's Hurting, Hungry, People

Should Thankfully Be Eating
So Do Not Around Wild Bushes Beat About!
Get To The Point ... And Poke The Devil In His Nose!
Truth Is A Fire Hose!

The Truth ...

The Word Of Truth From The Living, Holy, God

As Regards Sin, Sinning And Sinners

Is 
Truly Hard For Known Offenders To Accept
To Take
To Tolerate

But

When The Son-Light Illuminates The Riven Soul

Suddenly ... Understanding Dawns
- By The Working Of The Holy Spirit -

And
Now Newly Convicted Of Sin

And

Convinced Of Righteousness

The Old Sinner Rightly, Wisely, Desires

To Jesus Christ The Savior
With Alacrity To Get Home!
They No Longer With Deceitful Satan
 Desire Anymore Wildly To Roam!

The Elevated Platform ...

One Does Not Place A Burning Candle

Under A Bushel ... A Basket 
To Shine The Bright Light! 

One Places The Burning Candle

Upon A Prominence

So That Those Seeking Light ... To See

Shall Be Served

And

For Grace-Filled Illumination 

Give Praise Most Thankfully!

We Are To Stand Above The Fray

The Chaos 
That Does Darken The God-Given Good Day

And

Tell The Good News With Humility

And

In Power

Denying Wily Satan His Way

To Make Hurting Souls

Before Him In Fear To Cower! 
The Lord Christ Is Man's Strong Tower!

Don't Be Fooled ...

Living For Christ Jesus Requires Sacrifice
And
In Our Living For Jesus

We Cannot With Sin Play Nice

So Stand Tall ... Stand Firm
For It Is Upon The Eternal Rock Of Ages That We Rest

To Give The Warning Trumpet That Certain Sound 

So That All Will Hear The Good News That 
Jesus Christ Saves:

When From Heaven He Came To Earth

It Was Our Soul's Salvation

That He Had Lovingly Brought Down!
Sing The Song! 

Faith Comes By Hearing

Hearing The Living Word Of The Eternal God

And

By The Holy Spirit's Leading

We Must Each Do Our Small Portion

To Help Negate The Nefarious Works Of Satan

The Damned For Eternity God-Fraud! 

The Night Is Coming

When No One Can Work:

Are You Presently At Work

And

Diligently Working

For You Lord!?!

HAPPY SABBATH + FACT: Man Cannot Change Almighty God's Word!

Man May Write A Book

And

Call It The Bible

BUT

He Cannot Change

The Sealed And Settled

Eternal Word

Of

Almighty God!

There Are A Few Absolutes
In The Way Of Man
- As Prescribed In The Preserved Word Of Truth -

For His Correction, Direction And Protection

AND

So That He Cannot Say That
He Was Not So Informed!

By Putting Away Those Things

That Surely Blight The Soul! 

Let's Cast Our Care Upon Christ Jesus!

Let's Give Unto Him All Our Sin!

Let's Lift Up Our Hearts To Him In Contrition

AND

Receive From His Hand

The New Start

To Really, Really, Start Living! 

N eeding To Walk In

W isdom, Let Us Honestly
S tudy The Bible And
T rust Almighty God To Guide Us As We
A sk Him For The Blessing To Help Us To
R esist The Devil, And Valiantly
T ake Hold Of Sure Salvation!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Some And Piece Cannot Make One Whole!

Some O'This
AND
Piece A'Dat
Are Patchwork Christians
AND
Proud To Be

"Willing Workers For Our Lord
Praise His Holy Name
Come For Your World, Jesus!"

Prob ... LEM!!!

These Two
Are Selfish
Self-Righteous
Self-Centered
AND
To Top It All Off
They Put Their Personal Interests

AND
Personal Prosperity
Up Front And Way Before
The Interests Of The Heavenly But Soon Coming King
AND
DEEEMAND
That All The Other Brethren
In All That They Do
Or Contemplate Doing
Must Put God
AND
Others
First!

Their Behavior Is Appalling!

Their Hubris Lacks Shame!
Their Consciences Were Prickless
AND
They Think Simple Christians
Are Vain!

They Are Completely Useless
To Be Honest
But
No One Will Tell Them That
Because
Telling Ain't Hearing
AND
Of Understanding 

They Show Lack!

Don't Get Me Wrong ...

They Are Useful ...
When They Are Sleeping!
They Are Useful ...
When You Can See Their Backs
For Then
The Business Of The Kingdom
Proceeds Apace
When Some O'This
AND
Piece A'Dat
Are Not Around
To Give Willing Workers Flack!

This State Of Affairs Is Dreadful
BUT

It Does Not Have To Be So!
Patchwork Christians Are An Abomination
Misrepresenting The Lord Christ
With Their Acts Wholly Ungodly

AND

To The World

Putting On The Fine Show!

Christ Is Not Selfish!
Christ Jesus
For The Welfare Of Others
Does Daily Work
BUT
Patchworkers
Are All Over The Place
Leaning Into
Whatever Wherever
Whoever
AND
Whenever
If It Will Cause Them

To The Public
To Show Their Face!

Christ In Us
The Hope Of Glory
Is
To Them
A Phrase
Not The Way To Life!
AND
New Wine In New Bottles
Seems To Be A Trigger
Not The Call To New Life!

Old Man - Sinful Self
Old Wine - Unrighteous Doctrines And Philosophies
Old Bottles - Old Ways Of Being Seeing Doing

In These
They See No Wrong
For

To Please Themselves
Creed Is Speed

AND

They Know Therewith

They Can Do No Wrong

For

The Money Keeps Rolling Along!

They See No Reason To Change!
They Love The Status Quo!
Up With Self

AND

Down With

Down Upon 

Others
Is The Only Way To Grow

ANDTo Show
You're In The Know!

Those Are The Seeds They Sow!

Disgraceful!

Don't They Know ...

Put Off Self!
Throw Away Old Habits!
Dismiss Old Thoughts!
Put On Christ!
Take In His Light!
Walk In His Way

AND
Then The Devil You Can Fight!?

If You Look At A Patchwork Quilt
You'll See Lots Of Disparate Pieces
Cobbled

Sewn

Stuck Together!
They Come From Different Garments
Have Different Histories Of Use
AND
Color Persuasions
AND
Many Of The Pieces
Have Fraught History

AND

Often Unbeknownst To The Cobbler

Have Suffered 

Dreadful 

Damaging

Abuse!

To Keep The Disparate Together
One Must Make Many Seams!
One Must Provide A Backing Plain

AND
Faces Together
Patch AND Back
Are Joined Together
BUT

One Must Leave A Hole
For
Once Joined On The Four Sides
Back And Patch
Must Be Turned Out
To Show
A Different Face To The World!

BUT, And Still ...

The Transformation Is Not Finished!

Patch Must Be Irrevocably Tied
To Whatever Is His Back
AND
A Cobweb Of A Million Stitches
Going Every Which Way But Loose
Draws
Paints
Ascribes A New Persona
That Only God
Through Christ Jesus
Can Make New

AND
Suitable
For Heaven's Use!

As In The World
So In The Church!

If You Follow Jesus

You Must Give Up Self
In All Its Iterations
For
You Cannot Save Your Self!

Self Is A Bold Sinner
AND
Will Never Be A Saint!

The Saint Has Given Self
To The Savior
AND
Has Been Purged Of
Sinful Self's Taint!

If You Desire Salvation
Give The Patch And Back The Boot!
Jesus Will Give You
The Treatment
- His Cleansing -
AND
You Will Be Made Brand New!

Don't Settle For
Some O'This

AND
Piece O'That
When In Christ Jesus
You Can Have All
Of What Heaven Provides
For Those Who Will
From Death Arise

Because

They Have Accepted

The Salvation Call!

Come To Jesus Now!

He Negates The Effects Of The Fall!
