HAPPY SABBATH + Anchors And Sails! + PRAYER: Help Me Never To Deny You, Lord!




Brethren,

There Is A Challenge In These Phrases:

  • But, God ...!
  • And Yet ...!
  • Surely ...!
  • Wait ...!
  • Think ...!
  • Whatsoever ...!
  • Come Boldly ...!
  • Come Unto Me ...!
  • If Any Man ...!
  • The Lord Is ...!
  • And The Lord ...!
  • Call On Me ...!
  • Harden Not Your Heart ...!
  • Believe ...!
  • Love ...!
  • Trust ...!
  • Hope Thou ...!
  • Blessed Is The Man ...!
AND

The Challenge Is Issued By The Eternal God
In Christ Jesus
To All Who Will To Walk With Him
AND
Not Permit Self To Cause One
To Drink The World's Swill!

Think On These Things
AND
Reason With Your Maker
AND
Convinced
Convicted
Converted
Let Him Of Your Heart
Be The Enthroned King!

**-**-**-**

I Am Putting Forth A Thesis
Predicated Upon
The Anchor
"But, God!"

AND


The Sail

"Blessed Is The Man!"

I Shall Show Where It Is Tending
AND PROVE
That With Jesus Christ As Lord
The Believing, Regenerated
Man Woman Of God
Cannot
Of Entry Into Heaven
Fail!

Our Anchor Is ...





The Man Who Is Sailing
Must Have Good Sails
AND
I Say Unto You, Brethren
That 




Holds Up
Whole
In All Kinds Of Weather!
This Blessing, Dear Ones
Cannot Ever Fail!
Without This Truth
Do Not Set Sail!

There Is An Anchor
AND
There Is A Sail
Soooo ...
There Must Be A Boat
AND
That Without Fail
For
A Man
Unconveyed
Yet Feet Anchored
AND
Head Sailed
Is A Man
Marked For Death
Dying
Not Knowing
That At Life
He Has Well And Truly
AND
Miserably
Failed!

Look For And Find Your Conveyance In ...





Anchor Weighed!
Sails Unfurled!
Jesus Christ Saves
ANYONE
And
EVERYONE
Who Chooses To Follow Him
In Obedience
By Departing
That Cold Harbor
Called
The Ways Of The World!

PRAYER:

Father In Heaven
Blessing God Above
Thank You For Your Mercy
Your Saving Grace
Your Unfailing Love!

I Accept The Conveyance
The Anchor
The Sail
And
I Beseech You
To Convey Me Safely
To The Shores
Of
The Promised Land
Where All Is Joy
Peace
Rest
And
Everlasting Love!

I Am A Pilgrim In The Earth!
I Am A Stranger Here
But
Seeking The Home Above!
Please Grant Unto Me
Your Loving Favor
And
Bless Me, Lord,
Bless Me
To Share Your Love
As I Walk
The Straight And Narrow Way
Looking
Neither Left Nor Right
Never Tasting
The Dainties Of The Devil
Never Drinking
The Babylonian Wine Of Confusion
Nor Wearing
Sin's Sparkling
Ignore-Jesus Gloves!

Help Me To Honor You, Lord
With Willing Worship!
Help Me To Praise You, Lord
With Unfeigned Praise!
Help Me To Pray, Lord
Without Ceasing
Until The Day Is Done
And
I Enter Sleep
And
Am Laid In The Cold Grave!

You Have Promised
The Resurrection Of The Just
Who Live By Jesus' Faith
And
I Beseech You
To Help Me, Lord
So That I May Be Raised Up
To Rise Up
And
Go Up
And
Enter In
The Pearly Gates
With The Ransomed-People Flood!

You Are My God
The Lord Faithful And True
And
I Beseech You
Help Me To Never Deny You!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
I Pray, And I Plead!
AMEN.

HOLD ON TO JESUS CHRIST: Conversation For Two!

Myra Major
AND
Myrna Minor
Had A Conversation
Every Day
At The Same Time
Rain Or Shine
Hot Or Cold
Sick Or Well
Happy Or Sad
In Plenty Or In Need
In Company Or Alone
They Talked On Their Cellular Phones!

In Their Eyes
It Served A Blessed Purpose:

It Helped To Cheer A Pilgrim
In Their Walk On The Lonesome Way
Because
They Believed That In A Little While
We Were All
- The Faithful Few, That Is -
Going Home
AND
An Uplift For The Spirit Which Is Just The Thing!

They Never Said "Hello!"
- Too Pedestrian!
Their Conversations Never Lasted Five Minutes!
- Get In! Get Out! Move On!
AND
They Never Indulged In That
"Too Blessed To Be Stressed!" Nonsense!
- Stress Makes One Seek Out God!

They Had Developed A Seeming Shorthand
That Speaks Volumes!
Have Yourself A Gander!

RiiingggG!!!

God Is Light!
No Darkness At All!

God Is Truth!T
rust Him: You Can't Fall!

God Gives Grace!
His Grace Is Greater Than Our Sin!

God Loves The Sinner!
He Hates The Sinner's Sin!

Jesus Christ Sets Free!
In Him, I'm Free Indeed!

Jesus Christ IS The Great Physician!
He'll Heal My Sin-Sick Soul, I Must Reveal!

Jesus Christ IS The Only Way To Heaven!
Heaven Is My Soul's Only Goal!

Jesus Christ Paid It All!
My Sins Racked Up The Bill!

Jesus Christ To You Is Calling! 
My Faith In Him Is Answering!

The Holy Spirit Gives Us Wisdom!
Understanding To Use The Knowledge Is Not Lacking!

The Holy Spirit Guides And Chides! 
I Am Blessed When In Him I Abide And Confide!

God Is Faithful!
Jesus Saves!

Jesus Christ IS Pleading With And For Us!
The Holy Spirit Leads Us Into All Truth!

Holy Angels Watch Over Us!
Holy Angels Influence Us To Do The Right And The Good!

Do Good! 
Live Right!

Trust God! 
Sleep In Peace At Night!

Love In Hope!
Hope In The God Of Love!

I Pray For God's Mercy! 
Let Us Walk In Jesus Christ Today!

I Pray God's Grace Will Bless Us To Fly Through The Sky! 
Must Remain Faithful Until We Die!

The Lord Christ Reigns! 
In The Great Day He Rules!

Tomorrow?! 
Today ... When It Comes!

Same Time?!
No Other Time Will Suffice For This Play!

I Pray God Your Footsteps Do Not Slip!
Jesus Christ Is Walking With Me On The Trip!

Hold On! 
Don't Let Go!

CLiCK!

The Cross Of Christ






How Is It
That Pre-Jesus
The Roman Cross
WAS
Just An Instrument Of Torture
AND
Death
BUT
Present-Jesus
- The Life ... Of The World -
It Is A Lamp-Post
- Shedding Eternal Light -
To Those Who Will
To Be Blessed?!

The Cross Of Christ
IS
A Transport
A Transport Of Delight
Lifting High
The Repentant Sinner
Sending Him
Into The Land Of Truth
Beauty
AND
Right!

The Wood
Is Not The Thing Important!
The Man Who Hung There
Was A Body Veiling
Divinity!
Divinity
Which Chose Fallen Man's Position
So That In Life's Death
Satan - He Who Is Death To Human Life -
- Thenceforth -
Would Be In His Own 
Certain
Unremitting Death Throes!
No More Woes!

Life Died To Overcome Death!
Life Arose
To Give His Life
To Man - The True Walking Dead!
Life Willingly Laid Down For Us
His Life
AND
To Give New Life To Men
His Life
He Surely Took Up Again!
He Reigns!

Life Won In The Bitter Strife!
Because Of Life's Death
I Have A Way To Go To The Father!
Because Life Lives
I Can
- One-On-One -
Talk To My Father God!
Because Life Reigns
I Can Walk Through
The Gates Of Glory
For
It Is My Right
Because
The Life Enlightens
AND
Enlivens
The New-In-Christ Life
I Gained!

I Rejoice
In Life's Death
Because
- In Acceptance -
I Get Life's Life
As He Took My Sure Death!

I View The Cross
As The Sign Post
Of Salvation
AND
I Rejoice
For
By Its Light
I Can See The Way
The Way 
To Get Back Home
Today!
It Is The Only Way There!

I Thank God
For Grace And Glory!
I Thank God
For Truth And Light!
I Thank God
For The Faith
That Believes The Gospel
The Good News Story
AND The Mercy
That Removes Me
From The State Of Disgrace
To The Glorious Place!

The Cross Of The Word
The Life Of The World
Is The Light To My Path
The Lamp To My Feet
The Lifter Up Of My Head!
I Will Not Deny The Lord
Who Died To Save Me
BUT
I Will Lift Him Up Daily
As I Do My Own Cross
AND
Follow Him
As I Am Led 
To Safety!


Taking The Holy Life
For A Sinner's Life
Leads To Eternal Life
For The Repentant Sinner
Who To Willful-Sin
Is Now Cold!

Continue Committing
Christ-Killed-Afresh Crimes Called Sin!
