"I Will Go With My Jesus All The Way ... Home!"



Any Person, Any Christian To Be Exact, Who Is Heading Toward 
Hill Zion ... To Sweet Beulah Land
Must Recognize, Understand, And Accept That 
All The Footsteps Taken Will Be Our Very Own Footsteps 
But 
The Pathway ... The Only Way To Get There Safely
Is 
The Way Marked By Our Blessed Jesus ... Alone! 

Dear Ones, 

Be Not Dismayed, Nor Amazed
By Those Who Choose To Walk In Ways Contrary 
To What Says The Lord! 

Lustful Hearts
Itching Ears
Willful Blindness
And 
Deliberate Disobedience By The Self-Willed
The Gurus And The Gainsayers 
Will Always Have Appeal For The Like-Minded! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Jesus Did Not Create Clones 
Nor Does He Shepherd Goats 
Who Go According To Their Own Inclination! 

When We Humbly, Meekly, Follow Our Good Shepherd
The Path Which He Takes Us Along 
Will Always Be The Safe, Best, Most Beneficial, Blessed Path 
And 
We May Whole-Heartedly Commit Our Way To His Leading 
And
Say With The Saints Of All The Ages 
"I Will Go With My Jesus All The Way ... Home!" 
 
Don't Forget That 
Over-Heated Furnaces Become Pleasant Places
Hungry Lions Become Purring Pussy Cats
And 
Boiling Oil Is Rendered Stone Cold! 

We Are Safe In The Arms Of Our Lord Jesus 
And 
Will Enjoy Glorious Feasts In The Presence Of Our Enemies! 

Let Us Give Almighty God His Glory 
And 
Utter Heartfelt Thanks To Him 
For Being A Refuge For Us From The Raging Enemy Of Our Souls! 

Remember, Beloved, That 
Our Dear Savior Ever Shepherds His Saints On Solid Ground! 

Dare And Keep The Holy Faith! 

Peace!

TORN BETWEEN TWO LOVERS: SIN ... self ... SALVATION







If Your Heart 
Is 
Running On The Fuel Self-Willed
Please Rest Assured That 
You Have Already Surrendered Your Self-Control 
To That Fallen Angel, Lucifer Nka Satan
Who Built His Condemned And Damned Kingdom 
On Self-Righteousness! 

If All The Lights In The Room 
Are Spot-Lights Focused On You 
And
All The Words Spoken Are High-Notes For You 
And 
No Notes For The Surrounding Few
You May Want To Take A Good Look 
In The Only Disclosing Mirror Around 
Aka The Good Book Of Almighty God's Wisdom 
Where Saving Truth 
Is 
Readily Available To Be Found! 

Beloved, 

Be Careful When Your Actions 
Are Niceties And Goodies For You Alone 
And
What's Left Are Groans And Nasties 
For Everybody Else! 

Be Warned ...

Satan Built What Cannot Stand 
By "Destroying" What Cannot Fall 
And
By Way Of Necessary Warning
We Would All Do Well To Wisely Remember That 
Heel-Biters Get Crushed Heads! 

The Dead Can't Kill The Living 
And
The Living Can't Raise The Dead 
So Let's Draw Near To The Savior
- The Only One Who Is The Lord Of Life -
To Fix Us So That By Becoming Righteous As He Is
- By Faith -
We May Inherit His Eternal Life! 

Homework ...

Jesus Christ Saves Sinners From Sin! 
Self Is A Willing Sinner! 
Sin Cannot Cure Itself!
Do The Math: It's Easy! 

Peace!

Self-Utilized Backbone Required!




The Newest Growing Trend In Popular Culture 
Is 
To Place The Onus, The Duty, Upon Others 
To Be Your Personal Backbone 
To Stop You 
From Giving In To The Unbridled Lusts Of Your Flesh 
By Depriving Others Of Their Own Rights Of 
Self-Determination! 

Beloved, 

Being Temperate Aka Having Personal Self-Control
Knowing When Enough Is Sufficient 
And
Accepting "Thus Saith The Lord!" 
All Make For The Perfect Deterrent 
No Matter What "Difficulty" We May Face! 

Think About It ...

 Sin Abounds! 
The Moral Law 
And 
The Health Laws Are Available 
And 
We Are Encouraged To Make Good Use Of Them!
 
The Lord Jesus Could Have Removed Sin 
And
Temptation From Our Presence: He Didn't! 

Jesus Christ ... The Righteous Judge ... Simply Says

 
Exercise My Gift To You Of Daily Faith 
And
Use My Commandments For You 
As Your Sure Hedge Of Protection 
And
You Won't Choose To Sin! 

See! 
Self-Utilized Backbone Is Required! 


To Willfully Commit Sin Is Not An Accident!
Living By Sinning Is A Personal Choice!

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

Being Tempted Is Not A Sin!
Yielding To Temptation Is Sin!

Life Is Amazing! 
Self-Deception Is Mind-Boggling! 
Refusing To Take Responsibility 
For Your Own Self-Willed Actions 
Is 
The Mark Of A Lazy Mind In A Self-Absorbed Person! 

Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...

You Alone 
Stand Alone 
Before Christ Alone 
To Answer For Your Own Life 
In The One Judgment! 

One Life To Live Is Your Lot: 
Deal With It! 

Use Your Gift-From-God Tools!


Find Your Peace In The Lord!

WILL-WORSHIP: The Worship Fantasy

 


How Many Times Have You Said: 
"I Will Worship The Lord!" 
And, Instead
Indulged In Will-Worship Wherein Instead Of Worshipping God 
As He Requires His Children So To Do
We Flagrantly "Worship" The Eternal God 
How Our Personal And Known-Disobedient And Selfish Self Dictates!?! 

Will-Worship Aka Man-Made Worship Aka The Worship Fantasy
Is 
Straight-Up Idolatry 
Because 
It Places Us Sinful Creatures Upon The Throne Of Almighty God 
By Our Honoring Our Wicked Desires 
And 
Pet Inclinations! 
Man Can't Decide How Man Is To Worship His Creator!

Oh, The Shame Of It All ...

We Try To Be What We're Not 
And 
Become Less Than What We Were Created To Be! 

Beloved, 

The Human Will
- That Precious Gift To Us From The Almighty God -
Is 
The Most Powerful Weapon On Earth! 
Look Out ... And Be Wise! 
Look Upward ... Not Inward! 

If We Are Truly Wise ... Unto Our Own Soul's Salvation 
And
Truly Humble ... So That Pride Won't Trip Us Up
We Will Turn Over Our Sovereign Will To The Sovereign Lord 
For Him To Mold, Direct, Protect 
And
Use ... As He Wills
For His Holy And Good Pleasure 
And 
Not Use Our Freedom To Choose 
To Use Our Free Will 
To Spiritually, Physically And Emotionally Hurt ... Abuse
Ourselves And Others ... Just Because! 
No Good Will Come Of This Unwise Behavior!

Turn Over A New Page ... 

Be Brave!
Let Us Say To Our Own Souls 
"I Trust In The Name Of The Lord Christ
And I Will Worship The Living God 
In The Beauty Of Holiness 
So That I Won't Fall Prey To Satan, King Fraud
The Wannabe God!
Almighty God ... Mighty And Able To Utterly Save
Will Take Care Of Me!" 

Brethren, Beloved

Dare To And Deny Self: 
Willingly Worship The Lord God As He, Alone, Says! 
Raise Up, Class Up, Your Ideas
And
Be The Beau Idéal!
Jesus Christ Is Perfect!

Peace With Almighty God
Brings Relief
From
The Effects Of The Fall!

Look At Jesus Christ The Lord!


John 1:28-44 KJV - These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where  John was baptizing.



In Order For Our Lord To Show Us Great And Mighty Things
We Must Be With Him
Looking At His Dear And Lovely Face
Walking With Him
Listening To Him
Understanding What He Says
And 
Looking At What He Is Willingly Showing ... Revealing ... To Us! 

The Problem Is That We Indulge Inattention
Lack Of Focus
And 
Resistance To Knowing 
Because 
Receipt Of Divine Knowledge Brings With It 
The Burden Of Required Action
To Change Our Thoughts, Our Words
And 
Our Deeds! 

Knowing Demands Corrective Action 
But 
The Heart Finely Tuned To Self-Will
Self-Service
Self-Aggrandizement 
And 
That Bad 'Un Self-Pitying Selfishness 
- With A Double-Order Of Deadly Pride -
Refuses To Take Even A Single Look At Jesus! 

Jesus Christ
Is
The Way To Glory
The Truth That Is Our Ticket To Walk On The Way
The Light That Guides Our Footsteps 
And
The Life That We Must Live 
If 
We Will Secure Our Hold On Eternal Life! 

Beloved, 

By Beholding, We Become Changed! 

Behold The Man
The Son Of Man
The Son Of God
God In The Flesh
Jesus Christ The Only One Righteous
The Lord
The King ... All-Seeing, All-Knowing, Ever-Present
The God Of Grace Who Is Touched 
With The Feeling Of All That Touches Our Short But Eventful Lives! 

Please Lovingly Look Longingly Upon The Lord 
And 
Live Loyally! 


Peace
Has Been Purchased
For You
Personally!

PATHWAYS: Walking Wise Or Wild

You Can Sing Hymn A Ton
But Anywhere I Can Go
I Am Making The Journey! 
Any Place I Want To Go
I'm Making The Trek! 

No! You Can't! 

Yes, I Can! 

No! You Can't! 

Yes, I Can, And I Will ... I Do! 

Okay! You Win And Lose! 

Excuse Me!?! 

I Did Not Stutter! 
I Plainly Said:

"Okay! You Win And Lose!"

Why Did You Say That!?! 
All I'm Doing Is Having A Good Time
Enjoying My Life ... You Know, Mine
Aka Making Sure My Individual Needs 
Are Exalted, Fulfilled And Thoroughly Enjoyed 
No Matter The Cost! 
It's Alllll About Me! 
You Should Try It! 
It's Absolutely Delicious! 

Wow! And You Call Yourself A Committed Christian!?! 

Indeed I Do! 
I'm All For Jesus! 

Thank You For Clarifying 
Your Personal Vision Of Christ's Christianity
Because
Your Christianity Is Not Christ's! 

Bite Your Tongue ... And Then Explain That Remark! 





This, My Child, Explains You! 
You're Making Paths For Your Own Feet
"Doing What Thou Wilt!" 
Which Is Satan's Version Of
The Law Of Almighty God! 

Every Place That One Can Go
Is Not 
A Place That One Should Go
... Even If You Want To
And Can Go There! 

But Life Is Exciting And Fun
And Unpredictable 
And Exciting And Fun ...! 

... And You're Repeating Yourself! 
Are You Trying To Convince Me Or Yourself!?! 

I Like Fun And Excitement! 

Who Are You Following!?! 

Following!?! 
I Don't Follow People!
People Follow Me
And I'm Doing Me ... All Day, Every Day! 

You Are Following Self
And 
All Spirit-Led ... Holy Spirit-Led Christians 
Know That Self
Is 
A Rabid Sinner! 
You Should Be Following The Savior! 

I Am Not A Sinner! 

You Are A Liar! 

How Dare You!?! 

If You Actually Opened Your King James
You Would Surely Know Why I Dare! 

Oookay! 
Tell Me Why I'm A Liar, Then! 

All Mankind Are Sinners! 
We All Fall Short Of The Glory Of Almighty God! 
We Walk In Our Own Ways
And
Depart From The Lord's Path
Because Of
That Little Sinner Called Self
Which You Apparently ... Obviously 
Are Wittingly Harboring In Your Ample Bosom! 





Self Is A Prostitute
Just Like That Adulterous Woman
King Solomon Warned His Son Against
And
We Are Warned Against Self
Against Walking In Its Ways
Which Are Always Downhill! 

Look! 
I Shall Be Plain:
Take A Page Out Of King David's Prayers
And
You Shall Be Blessed And Saved!
You'll Have All The Fun And Excitement You Want Or Need
And Then Some
Because
A Day With The Lord Cannot, Will Not
Ever Be Boring
And
For The Bonus
Walking With The Lord Is ...! 

Bonus!?! 

Yes, As In Profit
As In Profitable! 

I Like Profit! 

That's Strange Since 
The One You're Blithely Walking With
Is
Decidedly Unprofitable! 

Tell Me NOW! 
Tell Me How! 
Tell Me At Whose Throne I Bow!?! 

Very Well! 
King David, The Sweet Psalmist, Said
To His Lord And His God
His Father In Heaven:





King David Knew From Experience 
Learned With Bitter Tears
That Walking According To Self And Feelings
Always Leads To ...! 

... Death! 

So You Read That Story!?! 

Yes! 
It Was Horribly Sad And Painful! 

In That Case
Let's Walk ... Forward:

There Are Only Two Ways
Two Paths In This Life 
Available For Man To Choose! 

The Paths Of Jesus Christ
Of The Almighty God 
Are Righteousness, Mercy, Truth
And
Peace
And 
All Who Walk Therein Are Safe 
From Walking In The Paths Of Satan, The Destroyer! 

The Paths Of Satan
The Known, Raging, Ravening, Destroyer
Are Darkness And Death 
And 
Destruction 
And 
Everything Contrary To The Holy Word Of 
The Eternal God Of Grace Who Gives Life 
And 
Sheds The Light Of Life That 
Leads To Sure And Secure Soul Salvation 
Dearly Purchased For All Mankind! 

We Who Believe ... I Include You
- Because You Say That You're A Believer -
Accept The Giver ... Jesus Christ The Lord
And 
The Gift: We Are Nearing Home! 

Now Is Not The Time For You To Be Going Your Own Way
Doing Your Own Thing
And
Straying
Like You Have No Anchor For Your Purchased Soul! 

We Must Keep Walking In The Paths Of the Living God
Doing Good
Blessing Others
Pleasing God 
And 
Blessing Ourselves! 

Surpassing Glory Awaits The Enduring, Faithful, Obedient
Who Trust The Ever-Living One
And
His Everlasting Word
And
Are Sincerely Wise Unto Their Own Soul's Salvation!

May I Suggest That
You Tell Self, Sorry, Nor Sorry
I Need My Savior
Not You
Not Satan
Not Sin! 
It's Time For Sacrifice
If You Will To Receive
The Savior's Seal Of Approval! 

Sister, I Say To You, Today:
Done Deal! 

May The Lord In Mercy
By His Sweet Spirit
All Truth ... Present Truth
Lovingly Reveal! 

I Like Seals! 
Everything Is Marked Official 
Is Real, And Is Mine! 

I Like How You Think! 
Let's Pray For The Promised Perfect Peace!

I Know That One:
Jesus Christ Is Our Peace
And He Gives Us His Perfect Peace
Which Is Not As The World Gives!

You Know What!?!

What!?!

I Really Believe That You Are Going To Be All Right 
That You're Going To Make It ...!

... In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!

AMEN!!!

WILLFUL DISOBEDIENCE: Where's The Peace!?!

We Who Call Ourselves The People Of God
Who Swear By Our Parents' Faith
Who Have Found Our Own Faith
Who Dare To Speak ... By Agenda  ... Influencing Others
Would Greatly Benefit Self ... And Others
If
We Would Talk Less And Pray More!

Falling Away ...

I Am Appalled!

One Mommy Said That 
She Gave Up Her Faith In God 
To Protect Her Child In Their Chosen Lifestyle!

One Child Said That 
Her Mother Has More Faith In Her 
Than She Has In Any God!

One Pastor Gave Up His Decades-Long Christian Ministry 
To Be An Ally, An Advocate
A Help For And To His Son In His Preferred Lifestyle!

Several Ministers, Professors In Academia
And 
Several "Christian" Physicians Agreed 
And 
Decided That
The Immutable Word Of God Is Erroneous 
Existing Out Of Touch And Time
And 
Certain Texts
Offensive To Sensitive, Fallen, Man's Sensibilities
"Needed" To Be Erased From The Canon!

Isn't The Creator God Still Seated On His Throne!?!

Aren't We Creatures Still Subject To The Will
The Sovereign Will Of 
The Eternal God ... Alone!?!






 Suprise: No Surprise ...

Our Feet Dance 
To The Rhythm That Our Engaged Heart Beats! 

Doubt In The Goodness, The Blessings
The Benefits 
From Almighty God
 Causes Us To Look Around ... Left, Right, And Behind
To See Who Has What
And
To See Who Is Apparently "Prospering"
Even Though We Know It Is From Known-Evil Activity!

In This Light
We Would Do Well To Remember Lot's Wife
Who Looked Back ... After Having Experienced 
The Visibly-Plain Salvation Of The Lord! 

Mrs. Lot Dearly Cherished What Could Be Replaced
And
Boldly, Willfully, Despised
The Blessing Of God ... Which Makes One Truly Rich
And
As Warned
Perished For Her Gross Folly!
She Is Damned Forever!
She Will Be Consumed In The Lake Of Fire!

Pointed Questions Must Be Asked ...

How Does Enabling Known-Sin 
Benefit The Willful-Sinner And The Complicit Enabler
And
Where Will They Spend Their "Profits!?!"

What Makes This Behavior Different
From What Lucifer The Liar Did In Heaven!?!

Why Would We Even Dare To Believe That
The Almighty God Glorious
Will Handle This Bold Treachery
Any Less Firmly That He Did Lucifer's!?!

Know The Right ...

He Who Is Not Sowing With The Lord Christ
Is
Plucking Up That Which Was Planted!
He Is A Destroyer!

He Who Is Not Willing To Give Up
All Things
- Relationships, Associations
Houses, Lands -
For The Love Of The Lord
Shall Not Enter Into Eternal Life!


We, All, As Regenerated Christians
Must Reach The One-Way Path 
And 
Make The Final Decision
To Commit To The Lord Christ Completely
And
Willingly Let Go Of People
- The Silken Cords Of Affection -
Husbands, Wives, Brothers, Sisters,
Children, Friends, Relations
Well-Wishers And Even Beloved Naysayers
And
Head To Zion ... No Looking Back
No Doubting The Will
Nor The Way
Nor The Ways Of The Lord!

It Is Hard
But
Assuredly Doable
Because
We Will Be Equipped For The Fray!

Do We Desire Sure Salvation For Our Loved Ones!?!

Of Course!

Since We Do
Are We To Be Willing To Give Up Eternal Prosperity
For Fleeting, Temporal, Tawdry, Emotionalism 
And 
Unprofitable Gain!?!

No! A Thousand Times, No!

A Personal Note ...

I Am Encouraging The Child Of My Loins
To Make His Decision For Christ
So That We Will Meet Up In The Eternal City!

I've Also Made It "Rabidly" Plain That
Whether He Chooses To Get To Heaven ... Or Not
I Intend, By God's Grace, To Get There! 

If He Chooses Not To Make The Journey
- It Is A Choice -
I Will Miss Him During That Period Before The Lord
Wipes Away All Tears From Our Eyes
And
After That
"I Don't Want To Be You!"

Brethren,

Every Single, Solitary, Thing, Emotion, Desire
On Planet Earth
That Excludes The Lord Christ
Is 
A Waste Of Time, Talent, Energy, Life
And
Not Worthy Of Our Acceptance!

The Lord Doesn't Sleep
Is Not Blind
Is Not Unfeeling
And
Doesn't Stutter!

The Lord Is Not A Man
And
He Cannot Lie!

The Lord Asks Us To Pray ... Always
- Unceasingly -
And
In The Instant The Need Arises!

You Know Its Name ...

All Lawlessness Is Sin!
All Willful Sin Is Presumptuousness
And
If You, For A Moment, Doubted It
Check Judge Samson, King Saul,
Ananias And Sapphira, Disciple Judas
And Hophni And Phineas!

All Unrepented Of Sin
Is
Sin Unforgiven! 


Disobedience 
Is 
As The Sin Of Witchcraft
And
Witchcraft Is An Abomination
In The Holy Sight Of The Eternal God!

No One Boldly, Willfully, Living An Abominable Lifestyle
Shall See The Lord Christ In Peace
Or Enter Into Eternal Life!

And, Furthermore ...

There Will Not Be Any Immortal Sinners
No Matter Which Religious Denomination 
Deceitfully Dares Say Otherwise!

Immortality Is The Domain Of The Divine God
And
Only Those Who Adhere To His Particulars
Will Enjoy The Gift Promised
To His Faithful, Obedient, Enduring
Aka Self-Denying Children
To Be Given!

Trust God Wholeheartedly
And
Diligently, Importunately, Pray For People
And
Choose To Live By Faith
Not Unholy, Immoral, Changeable
Fickle Eye-Sight!
Omniscience Is Always Better For Us!

I, Praying
Know That We, Willing, Faithful
- Obedient Unto Death -
Shall See Our Jesus In Perfect Peace!
I Pray That You Will See It The Same Way!

REMEMBER:

Anything The Lord Asks Us To Do
Is 
Achievable
Because
He Equips Us With The Means
To Gain Success
Aka The Blessing!

When You Know The Right
You Must Not Neglect
To Do The Will Of God
Or
To Walk In The Ways Of Righteousness
Else
You Become The Same As The One
Who Knew To Do Right
And
Chose To Do Wrong:
Punishment Is Meted Out
For
Sins Of Commission
And
Sins Of Omission
For Willful Sin
And
For Facilitating Sinning!

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

Jesus Christ Cannot Make Mistakes
And
Obedience To His Will
Pays Off Eternally Gloriously!!
