Stop Helping Satan The Damned Feel Good!

Many Of Us Are Not Wise! 

Have You Considered That 

Our Dear Lord Tells Us To Do Good 

And 

Good Will Attend Us 

And 

To Consider Our Ways ... And ... Be Wise

For A Reason!?! 

Beloved, 

If Doing Good Causes Good To Attend Us Aka Take Care Of Us

Then It Stands To Reason That 

When We Do Bad, Down-Right Corrupt Evil Things

Then Bad, Down-Right Corrupt Evil Things 

Will Assuredly Take Up Residence 

In Our Comfy Chair And Nice Bed 

To Make Sure That We Reap What We Sow 

And

With Bitterness And Sorrow

Eat What We Maliciously Caused To Abundantly Grow! 

Think ... 

Would You Enjoy Manufacturing A Weapon That You Know 

Is 

Definitely Going To Be Used To Execute You!?! 

Obviously, The Answer Is A Resounding "No!" 

Since This Is So

Then Why Are We Who Know Right From Wrong 

And

Good From Evil

Indulging In Idiocy To Help Satan The Damned 

Feel Good About His Day's Work 

Against Our Striving For The Lord Of Glory's 

"Well Done, Good And Faithful Servant!" 

Priceless Commendation!?! 

The Plain Truth ...

Satan Can't Go Back Home To Heaven! 

We, By Enduring Faith And Obedience, Can! 

Please, I Beseech Us All 

Let Us Examine Ourselves 

And 

Discover Aka Expose Our Rank Motives 

For Indulging In Lawlessness Aka Sin! 

Let Us Choose To Daily Die To Sin And Selfishness 

So That We Will Live For Salvation 

And

With Charity Aka Love For All Mankind!

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

Unimpeachable, Indestructible, Records Are Being Kept!

Be Wise For Your Own Self 

And 

Boldly Decide To Ever Do What Is Good And Right! 

Peace!

Committing Sin Is Natural:

No Effort Is Required! 

Doing What Is Good And Right

Requires

A Free-Will

Firm

Faithful To The Lord Christ

Bold 

Conscious Decision! 

There Are Consequences To Either Act:

Choose Wisely! 

FAITH AND HOPE: Self-Exaltation Versus Self-Examination + PRAYER: Remind Us To Always Pray, Dear Father!

It Came To Pass On A Certain Day 
In The Midst Of The Congregation That

Self-Examination Was Attacked By Self-Exaltation

Who Had Self-Sufficiency

And

Self-Indulgence 

Both Standing Close By

One On The Left Hand And The Other At His Right Hand!

For His Part ... In His Right Hand

Self-Examination Was Gently Holding 
Constant, Heartfelt, Prayer!

It Was An Uneven Match-Up From The Get-Go

And

Know-It-All Self-Exaltation

Did Not Fear ... Nor Neglect

To Tell Self-Examination So!

You Can't Even Think For Yourself!
You Are A Loser!

Look At Those Cheap Shoes On Your Feet! 

You're A Loser Always Having To "The Savior" To Creep! 

Self-Examination

In The Quiet Of His Heart

Said To Himself:

There But For Your Grace, My Lord, I Go! 

Help Me, Dear Father
My-Wise-In-His-Own-Eyes Brother To Reach! 

Please Lay On My Heart Words Of Consideration

So That I Do Not Get Into A Tongue And Teeth Collision
And Send Him Off, Indignant, To The Wily King Fraud! 

To Self-Exaltation
Self-Examination Calmly, Carefully, Deliberately, Said:

Self-Exaltation, 

I'm Sorry That You Feel That Way

But I Creep To My Lord And Savior Boldly 

So That I Do Not Indulge In Own-Sin Self-Pay! 

I Accept The Lord's Checks And Balances

And I Pray Constantly As Protection Against The Known Foe

And I Invite You To Get To Know Him Personally

So That Of Willing Sinning

You Will Choose To Let Go! 

I Was Born A Sinner

But In Sin, I Shall Not Die

Because Jesus Christ My Savior ... For Me, Personally 

On Mount Calvary Did Die! 

We Walk Together Because With Him I Do Agree

And I Choose To Humble Myself Before Him

Instead Of Exalting My Self

And Pretending To The World At Large

That I'm What, Without Him, I Can Never Be! 

I'm A Child, A Student

A Servant And A Saint! 

I've Taken Jesus Christ As My Captain

So That In The Road To Mount Zion

I Shall Not Hunger, Get Lost

Or Under The Buffeting Of The Adversary

Ignominiously Faint!

The Lord Is My Shepherd

My Rock And My Sure Refuge

And By My Following Him Faithfully

Enduringly

I Have Heaven To Gain 

And The Burning Hell To Refuse!

Every One Of Us

Be Ye Self-Exalting

Or Self-Examining

Will Have An Account To Settle

Which Will Clearly Show Our Mettle!

Your Works Will Either Stand And Prosper

Or They Will Fall To The Ground And Perish

And I Tell You Truly

The Reward Of All You Self-Indulgent Ones

Is Not Something That I Would Relish Or Cherish!

I Pray For You With All Sincerity!

I Speak To With Love ... In Christian Charity 

And Beg You, Please

Reform Your Ways Because Before Very Long

We Shall Stand Before The Lord, The King

The Ancient Of Days

Who Knows, Who Sees, Who Feels

And Is In All Things!
We Created Beings ... His Creatures

Cannot Hide From Him

A Single, Solitary Thing!

I Examine Myself

To Know My Every Weakness

And I Repair Unto Him

Who Strengthens Me To Be Like He Is!

I Cannot Be Like You

For I Choose To Be Like

Who Is The Author And Finisher Of My Faith

And The Very One Who Forgives My Sin

And Who Showers Me With Unmerited Favor 

Which Is His Gift Of Moment By Moment

Free Grace!

Remember This, My Misguided Friend 

When You Love The Lord Of Life

You Truly Love Your Self! 

When You Put Your Self 

Before The Lord Of Life 

You Are Your Own God 

And You Earn For Your Own Self

The False God's Reward! 

Worship The Living, Holy, God! 

Humble Your Self

And Stop Being Proud! 

Satan Is Proud! 

Satan Loves Self! 

Satan Is The Father Of Lies! 

Get Him Out Of Your Bosom 

And Get Off Of His Reserved-For-Damnation Shelf! 

Reach For The Extended Hand Of Hope

And Stop Letting Satan Choke You

With Your Own Self-Made Cherished-Sin Rope!

Self-Exaltation Could Not Utter
A Single, Solitary, Note! 

To Strike While The Iron Was Still Hot
Self-Examination Then Said:

 

Self-Exaltation,
Please Take Comfort In The Lord Jesus Christ

The Lord Of Life And Light 
Who Promises Us His Fatness ... His Abundant Blessings 

Both Now And Forevermore! 

To The Gathered Brethren, He Said:
 
Brethren,

What We See With Our Blind Eyes 

Is 

Narrow And Finite 

So Let Us By The Strength Of Faith 

And 

The Courage Of The Blessed Hope

Take Jesus At His Living Word 

So That We Will Enjoy All That Is In 

His River Of Pleasure! 

Trust, Obey, Pray

Give Praise

Do Good

Endure Through The Fight Of Faith

Be Faithful

Learn All Things From The Lord Jesus

And

We Can All Be Sure That We Will Be Gloriously Blessed! 

Eternity Awaits Us!

PRAYER:

Dear Father,

Please Grant Me

The Strength Of Faith

And
The Courage Of Hope!!

Increase Our Love For Our Lord Jesus

And
Bless Us To Be Tied Up

In Salvation

So That The Life's Work
That Is Sanctification
Does Not Become For Us

A Wink And A Nod

Popular Conversational Trope!

Remind Us Always, Father
That Men Should Pray
And
Not Faint
And
Keep Us In Your Holy Care!

Please Bless Us To Continually Hear
The Sweet Spirit Of Truth
And
To Obey The Gospel Call
So That We Shall Indeed Be Blessed
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
That We Sincerely Pray And Humbly Plead!
Please Come For Us Soon!
AMEN!

 

COLLEGE OF THE ROAD: Carnal Man vs. Earnest Examination O. Self

Earnest Examination O. Self
Was Expelled From Carnal Man's Class!

It Happened This Way ...

Carnal Man Is A Tenured Professor At

This IS The Way

College Of The Road

- Growing Up Campus -

On The First Full Day Of Classes
By Way Of Challenge
AND
To Pay Off A Debt To No-Ah DeFlood
Professor Man Had Given A Semester-Long Assignment 

To Read King James' Psalms
Take A Position
AND
Defend It ... To The Death!

Long Story Short ...

He Had Effectively
AND
With Seeming Efficiency
Opened
The Can Of Warfare!

This is A Lil' Background ...

Earnest Examination O. Self
Had Previously Lovingly Enjoyed
The Pleasures Of Sin
BUT
The Season Of Sinful Enjoyment
Did Not Last
OR
At Least It Did
UNTIL
His Lot
Upon The Deliverer
He Had Cast!

Being A Willing And Disciplined Student

He Had Started At The Beginning Of The Psalms

AND

Had Quickly Found ... Wisdom:

BLESSED Is The Man That Delights

In The Law! 

Whatsoever He Doeth Shall Prosper! 

Thou Art My Son! 

Be Wise Now!

Salvation Belongeth Unto The Lord!

Stand In Awe And Sin Not!

Transfixed By Truth
He Said In His Heart:

Lead Me, Lord, In Thy Righteousness!

Have Mercy On Me For I Am Weak!

But, Then, He Considered The Statement ...

God Is Angry With The Wicked Every Day!

... And Thought It Reasonable

To Pose A Direct Question To Almighty God:

What Is Man That Thou Art Mindful Of Him?!

With His Soul Satisfied With Truth's Plain Response

He Shouted:

I Will Praise Thee, O Lord, With My Whole Heart!

When He Went To Bed That Night
The Song In His Heart Was:

The Lord Is King For Ever And Ever!

In The Middle Of His First Class The Next Morning
He Was Given No Other Choice But To Ask Carnal Man:

If The Foundations Be Destroyed

What Can The Righteous Do?!

Not Long Thereafter
Things Got Acid Real Fast
AND
Carnal Man Roared At Him
Saying:

Our Lips Are Our Own!

Who Is Lord Over Us?!

After Taking A Thorough Beating At School That Day
AND

Becoming Very Discouraged
He Went To Bed Praying That Night:

Consider And Hear Me, O LORD My God:

Lighten Mine Eyes

Lest I Sleep The Sleep Of Death!

Before He Closed His Eyes
To Rest In Sleep
He Wrote On His Notepad:

The Fool Hath Said In His Heart

There Is No God!!!!!

He Awakened The Next Morning
Totally Refreshed
AND
Wrote A Whole Chapter About

He Wrote For Its Conclusion:

I Will Bless The Lord

Who Hath Given Me Counsel! 

Hold Up My Goings In Thy Paths

That My Footsteps Slip Not! 

Hide Me Under The Shadow Of Thy Wings!

The Semester Was All Of Three Weeks

Three Days

Three Hours And Fifty-Four Minutes Old

When Hellen Damnation Showed Up ... UNANNOUNCED!

Before Long
It Became Very Apparent
To All Persons Present That
A Certain Somebody Was Going To Have Their Guts
Turned To Garters
All Because Of ...!

Well ... 

Earnest Had Brought The Lord To Class
- For Real -
AND
When He Was Forcefully Challenged
- In His Newly Acquired Faith -
He Had Boldly Stated:

I Will Call Upon The LORD

Who Is Worthy To Be Praised:

So Shall I Be Saved From Mine Enemies!

Just So You Know ...

In That Very Instant
De Big Dog Up And Dead!

Hellen Damnation Totally Lost Her Tiny Mind
AND
Professor Carnal Man Got On Like A Pop Kite
In A Fierce Easter-Holiday Wind
AND
Bedlam And Ruckus
Elegantly Came Out Of Darkman Closet!

When The Commotion Was Finally

Administratively
Concluded
Earnest Examination O. Self
Was Summarily Expelled From Carnal Man's Class
For. Cause!

If You Had Seen His Departure
You Would Have Been Mommy-Daddy-Proud ...

He Left With His Head Raised
His Shoulders Squared
His Back Ramrod Straight
His Faith Strong
His Hope For Heaven High
His Comforter In His Heart
His Very Best Friend Beside Him
His Angel Watching Over Him
AND
Confident
That His God
His Personal Savior
His King
His Redeemer
AND
His Present Help
The God Of Creation
IS
Esconced On Heaven's Glorious Throne!

These Were His Final Words
Before The Witnesses:

The LORD Is My Rock

And My Fortress

And My Deliverer; 

My God

My Strength

In Whom I Will Trust;

My Buckler

And The Horn Of My Salvation

And My High Tower!

I Shall Not Be Moved!

His Soon-To-Be-Former Classmates
Stood Up
AND
Cheered
BUT
Carnal Man
- Forgetting Where He Was -
Vividly Swore!

From That Day Forward
Earnest Examination O. Self
Earnestly Chose To Unashamedly Trust God
AND
Went After Sin No More!

For The Record ...

The Master
- Our Coming King -
Is Well Pleased!
His Soul Is Satisfied
AND
There Is Rejoicing Up In Heaven
For The Lost One Returned To The Safe Fold!

As For Carnal Man
AND
Hellen Damnation
It Was Revealed
- Publicly Revealed -
That They Were Involved
In An Extracurricular Activity
Or More Particularly
Intimately Involved
In An Affaire De Coeur!

When All The Dirty Linen Was
Thoroughly Aired
It Revealed Something Long Suspected
BUT
Never Vocally Identified:

Carnal Man
Carnal Professor Man
Is A Hit Man For The Goat Clan
AND
Specifically
The Goat-Herder Himself
God Wannabe!

When, Eventually
Earnest Examination O. Self Received The Polo
Declaring The News

He Replied:

Saved By Grace!

Saved By Grace! 

Thank God Almighty

I Was

I Am

Saved By Grace!

Earnest Examination O. Self

To This Very Day

Glorifies Almighty God
AND
Gives Jesus Christ
Total Praise!
