YOLO Is A Rabbit-Hole To Sure Destruction!

If We Would Choose To See 

And

Recognize Our Value 

Through The Eyes Of The Living God

We Would Never Use The Expression 

YOLO Aka "You Only Live Once!" 

To Encourage Ourselves And Others 

To Live In The Realm Of Sense And Self 

Which Is The Rabbit-Hole To Sure Destruction! 

Look At Lucifer The Light-Bearer: 

Behold Satan, The Adversary ... The Damned! 

Beloved, 

Living For Self And By Sense 

Is 

To Live The Life Of A Drug Addict 

Who Must Get A Fix Of More And Stronger 

To Attain Minimal Satisfaction! 

Drug Use Starts Cheap To Get You Hooked 

And 

Then Costs Everything Up To And Including One's Liberty 

And 

Life! 

Dear Ones, 

There's A Better Way: 

A Life Lived In And For Jesus Christ

A Life Lived On The Upward Way That Leads To Beulah Land 

Where One Lives Eternally! 

To Get There

Change Must Start Here! 

We Must Discard The Old Man, That Sinful Self

And 

We Must Put On Christ

Our Creator Who Made And Remakes Us

Our Savior Who Died So That We, Willing, May Live Again

And 

Our Redeemer Who Bought Us Back From Sure Damnation 

And

Invites Us To Embrace Sure Salvation! 

What A Gift! 

We Have Today ... A Present! 

Unwrap Your Gift! 

It's Priceless! 

Peace!

Sin Is Fire!

De Fire Burning! 

To Extinguish An Uncontrollable Desire 

Aka Fire

Someone With Control, Ability, Knowledge, And Experience 

Aka CAKE

Ignites A Strategic Fire With The Expectation That 

It Will Extinguish The Old Fire 

And

Itself! 

If Someone Lacking The Knowledge Of 

And 

Experience With Fire 

Lights Fire To Extinguish A Fire

We End Up With Unintended Consequences 

Aka More Destruction 

And

Death! 

Of Course, There Are Pyromaniacs 

Aka Malicious Fire-Setters Amongst Us 

Who Just Love To Kill And Destroy! 

Beloved, 

Sin Is Fire! 

Willing Sinning Is Raging Fire! 

The Supreme Pyromaniac Of This Life 

Is 

Satan: 

His Minions, Those Who Will Encourage Us To Sin

To Set Ablaze Fire In Our Lives

Are The Little Fire-Setters Aka Instigators To Sin! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous

Is 

The Excellent Fire Chief 

Who Gave Of Himself To Save Us All Willing To Be Saved 

By His Holy Hand ... His Life

Through The Cross Upon Which He Was Raised Up 

As The Sinless One Accursed For Us 

Aka Our Only Savior! 

Save Yourself! 

Separate From Sinful-Self

Known Sin

Other Known And Bold Sinners

And 

Satan 

And

Seek The Solution Aka The Savior! 

Out De Fire: 

Kneel At The Cross! 

Peace!

Using The L.O.D.E: Changing Hurry Into Hurray!

When Man-Generated Hope Is Gone

Christ-Gifted Holy Faith Working 

And

Enduring 

Allows Us To Change 

"Please Hurry, Lord!" 

To "Thank You, Lord! Hurray!" 

Beloved, 

Our Depending Upon Self In Matters Of Faith 

Is 

Akin To Running Behind A Fuel-Less, Driver-Less

Engine-Less, Moth-Balled Vehicle! 

It Ain't Going Nowhere And Neither Are We! 

Our God Alive, The Lord Jesus Christ

Is 

The True Strong-Hold

Our Impenetrable Shelter

Our Perfect Refuge 

And

He Gives To Each Of Us 

A Measure Of His Faith Each And Every Day 

To Use To Trust Him At His Eternal Aka Can't-Fail Word! 

Dear Ones, 

The Day That We Truly Understand That Self 

Is 

A Willing Sinner 

And

Accept With Unadulterated Joy That 

Jesus Christ The King 

Is 

Our Only Savior 

Is

The Day That There Shall Be Our Joyful Celebration 

In Recognition Of The Fact That 

It Is Indeed The Mighty God That We Serve! 

All Of Us Who Choose To Trust The Lord 

And

Wait Upon Him 

Shall Surely Renew Our Strength! 

We Will Be Like Those Who

- With Prayer And Supplication With Thanksgiving - 

Will Light The Fire

And 

Place A Pot Of Water On To Simmer 

With The Full Expectation That 

Soon The Ingredients Necessary To Cook A Substantial Meal 

Which Will Do A Body Good 

Shall Surely Appear! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

Sinful-Self Is Destructively Used By Satan

But

The Faith-Fuelled Saint Aka Sinner-Saved 

Willingly, Wisely, Serves The Eternal God 

Lovingly, Obediently, Devotedly, And  Enduringly! 

Let Us Daringly Endeavor Today 

To Fully Let Jesus Christ's Gift Of Unfailing Faith 

Lubricate Our Lives! 

Peace!

Almighty God Winked ... When We Were Ignorant!

Is Your Christianity Just A Cloak 

Or Is It Functional ... Functioning

And

You Are A Functionary

A Doer Of The Will Of God

And

Not Just A Indifferent Hearer Of The Word!?! 

How Far Are You Willing To Go To Get Your Own Way!?! 

Are You Willing To Sin To Have That 

Self-Deceived Sense Of Personal Satisfaction 

No. Matter. What!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Very, Very, Careful! 

Tread Softly In The Presence Of Almighty God! 

As Jesus Christ's Followers 

And 

Personally Appointed 

And 

Commissioned And Equipped Ambassadors 

Who Are Required To Live To The Higher Standard 

And

Speak The Truth In Righteousness

And

Walk Blameless Before Our Lord And King

- The Judge Of All Flesh - 

We Cannot Speak Of Salvation From 

And 

Victory Over Sin 

And Then

Live Lavishly For Your Known Sinful Self

And

Willingly, Boldly, Brazenly Commit Known Sin! 

When We Knew Not The Lord Of Life

The King Of Glory

He Winked At Our Ignorance! 

We Were Given A Free Pass 

Because 

We Didn't Know Better! 

But ... 

Because We Have Been Made Aware Of The Truth

Aware Of What Is Good And Right 

Because

We Have Either Opened The Good Book For Ourselves 

And

Have Seen Or Been Shown The Truth 

Or Have Been Made Aware Through Our Ears 

By A Talk From Parent, Teacher, Pastor

Priest, Friend Or Well-Wisher

We Are Now Responsible For Our Behavior 

And

Guilty Before Almighty God 

When We Deliberately Sin 

By Walking Contrary To The Light Received

The Truth Obvious! 

Brethren, Beloved

Jesus Christ Personally Died 

For The Specific Sins That 

You Personally Committed 

In Your Very Own Flesh! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Don't Scorn The Unspeakable Gift 

By Indulging In Planned Wickedness: 

You Will Personally Pay For Your Own Sins If You Do! 

Dare To And Do Good!

 

Do Not Harden Your Heart

And

Become A Reprobate! 

 

Don't Rob Yourself!

Who Are You!?! 

Are You A One-Talent

Two-Talent 

Or A Five-Talent Servant In The Service Of Our King!?! 

Are You ... Like The One-Talent Servant

Not Even Trying To Work 

But

Are Condemning Your Lord 

And 

Burying Your Talent In The Cold Earth Like It's A Dead Rat!?! 

Are You Like The Two And Five-Talent Servants 

Who Multiply Their Talents 

By Willing Service 

And

Giving To Their Lord Double His Investment Upon His Return!?! 

Are You Being Wise And Faithful 

And

Being Blessed For Having Trust In Your Lord 

And

Embracing The Confidence That He Reposed In You 

By Doing Well In Your Work For Him!?! 

Beloved, 

None Of Our Lord's Workers 

Should Be An Unprofitable Servant! 

The Lord Our God ... Our Creator

Who Knows Us Each Better Than We Know Our Own Selves

Gives Us Talents According To Our Ability 

So Don't Look, Or Stop Looking, At What Others Have 

And

Stop Judging The Living God 

By Your Corrupt Thinking And Innate Laziness:

We All Suffer From The Same Disease!

 We Are Free Agents With Freedom 

And 

Free Will! 

We Know Right And Wrong: 

Because Of Sin We Know Good And Evil! 

Please Don't Short-Change Aka Rob Yourself! 

Please Deny Sinful-Self 

And

Choose To Be A Saint Of God In This Age 

Using Your Gifts, Talents, For Our Lord! 

The Fields Are Ripe For Harvest

But

The Available Workers Are Few!

Be Warned ... 

Like It ... Or Not

Accept It ... Or Not

Whatever Talent We Receive From Our Lord

- Improved Or Not - 

Must Be Accounted For In The Judgment

So Do Yourself ... Your Soul ... A Favor

And

Willingly Choose To Know Your Gifts

And

Use And Improve ... Increase ... Them 

In The Service Of The Great King Blessed Forever! 

I Beseech Us All, Brethren

Dare To Work Wise Until Jesus Christ Comes! 

The "Well Done Good And Faithful Servant!" 

Awaits You, And Me, Too! 

Every Child Of Almighty God

Every Servant Of Almighty God

Has A Work To Do For Almighty God!

SINFUL SELF: Leeches Have No Future!

Jesus Christ 

Is 

Our Good Shepherd

Our Peace, Rest, Light, Way 

And 

Life 

And

All Who Love, Trust, Honor

Worship 

And

Faithfully, Enduringly, Obey Him 

Shall Be Called Up To Live With Him On High! 

In Between Us 

And 

Our Lord, God, Savior, Redeemer

Healer, Sealer 

And 

Forever Friend

Separating Us From Sweet Fellowship

Is

A Blood/Life-Sucking Leech Called Sinful-Self 

Who Needlessly Suffers From Willful Blindness 

And 

Tunnel Vision

The Free Gifts From Satan The Damned

Our Adversary-Accuser

The Piercing Serpent

The Leech Writ Large! 

Beloved, 

Leeches Do Not Have A Future! 

Left Unchecked

They Drain Away The Life Of 

Whomever They're Feeding Upon 

And

When Their Host Miserably Dies 

For Lack Of Wisdom, Knowledge And Understanding 

And

The Health And Cure Offered 

By Our Great Physician, Jesus, 

The Leech Dies Forever As Well! 

Brethren, Beloved

Be Ye Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation!

Dare To Cut Out The Chaos:  

Come Straight To Christ!

 

Choose Life: 

Apply Humble, Earnest, Prayer! 

Exercise Faith: 

Receive Grace And Mercy!

 

Trust Truth: 

Deny The Liar! 

Don't Be Willful: 

Do Right! 

Come Out Of Darkness: 

Jesus Christ Is Living Light ... Consuming Fire

Which Kills All Leeches! 

Our Great Physician Is On Call! 

Reach For Peace!

Putrid Pride Perverts Good Character!

Are You Like The Pharisees Who Spoke And Fasted With Pride 

Or

Are You Like Christ Jesus Who Spoke Peace 

And 

Ate His Food With Humility

Willingly Choosing To Be With The Sinners Who Saw 

And 

Expressed Their Personal Need Of 

Their Personal Savior!?! 

Lest We Forget

The Lord Asks Us To Humble Ourselves 

Under His Mighty Hand 

And

In His Own Time He Will Lift Us Up! 

Pride ... Putrid Pride ...  Perverts Good Character

And 

We Ought To Constantly Remember That 

It Was Putrid Pride That 

Caused Satan's Fall From Saving Grace! 

We Should Never Forget That It Is False Pride That 

Causes Us To Elevate Our Sinful Self 

Before We Spectacularly Fall 

And 

Our Shame Is Exposed! 

We Have Nothing About Which To Practice Pride 

Save Jesus Christ The Lord ... Our Lord

So Let Us Be Wise And Consider, Understand

And 

Remember That 

The Only Thing That We Take From This World 

Is 

Our Name ... Our Character 

Good, Bad, Ugly Or Indifferent! 

Beloved, 

The Only Character That Will Enter Heaven 

Is 

The One That Is Totally Like Christ's 

So, Please, I Beseech Us All

By The Grace Of God 

And 

With An Obedient, Willing Spirit

Get Rid Of The Unholy Habits 

And 

Ugly, Offensive, Prideful Attitudes: 

Jesus Christ Cleans And Saves! 

Powerfully Pursue Peace!

HABITS: What Crop Are You Raising!?!

Everything That We Do Serves A Purpose

Even If It Is The Purpose That

We Are Sure That We Didn't Intend It To Be!

It's A Fact ...

Mind: Muscle: Product 
Aka What Is In Your Mind 
And 
That Upon Which You Expend Energy To Master 
Will Give You The Product Expected! 

A Liar Is Never Known Truthful!

A Cheater Is Never Known The Winner!

A Complainer Is Never Known Contented!

A Murderer Is Not Known The Life-Giver

And

A Faithless Person Will Never Be Known Faithful

Aka

Habits Make The Man, Woman And Child!

Whatever You Practice Diligently
Conscientiously 
And 
Carefully
Is 
The Skill That You Will Acquire 
Even If It Is A Bad Really Terrible Habit! 

Beloved, 

We Are Thinking Beings
And 
We Have Free Will 
And 
Free Choice 
And
The Freedom To Learn What We Desire
Practice What We Want To Perfect
And
Introduce The World To Our Personally Branded 
And 
Personally Produced Products! 

What Are You Thinking About!?! 
What Are You Consistently Practicing!?! 
What Have You Perfected!?!

And The Big Question

With What Are You Blessing 
Or
Blasting The World Around You!?! 

Study The Life Of The Lord

And

Live According To The Example

To Show Yourself Approved! 

Will Our Lord Christ Be Pleased With Our Personal Products!?! 
Will He Smile Affectionately Upon Us In The Day Of Reckoning 
Or
Will He Frown Severely Upon Us 
And 
Say With Terminal Tone: 

Depart From Me

Ye Who Work Iniquity!?! 

Please Study The Eternal Word ... As Given 
And
Don't Try To Make It Say What Your Sinful Self Wants! 

The Lord Doesn't Change 
And 
Neither Will His Word! 


Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...

The Word Of Truth Will Never Conform To Our Desires:
We Must ... By The Working Of The Spirit Of Truth
Allow Our Selves To Be Conformed To The Word That Is Life!
Cultivate Good, Known-Profitable, Habits
Because
Like It Or Not
We Will Eventually "Eat" What We Grow! 

PRAYER: Father, You Have Given Me Freedom!

Father, 
You Have Given Me The Freedom
To Choose To Follow You In Faithfulness 
Or To Allow My Sinful Self To Be My Leader
And The Free Will To Make My Own Decisions
For Or Against You! 

Despite My Straying And Often Disobedience
You Hear My Feeble Cries Of Distress 
And You Still Answer Me When I Call: 
Thank You For Your Loving Faithfulness! 

Father, I Once Walked The Broad Way To Destruction 
And Through Bitter Experience
I Now Safely And In Confidence Say:
"I Repent Of My Past!"
Because I Now Understand, Accept And Appreciate That 
Your Word And Your Ways Bless And Prosper Me! 

With All Humility, Father
I Truly Acknowledge And Finally Trust You Totally
At Your Holy Word: Whatever I Do That Pleases You 
Will Always Bless Me! 

I Have Made My Choice: 
By Your Sweet Spirit
With The Protection Of The Holy Angels
In The Name Of My Jesus, Christ The King
The Lord Of Glory
I Am Walking With You As Life Is Spared
Wherever, Whenever And However You Shall Lead Me! 

My Life Is Yours: Use It! 
My Will Is Yours: Make Your Will Mine! 
My Way Is Yours: Refashion My Feet To Walk In Your Holy Ways
And Comfort Me 
And Wipe My Tears Away As I Negotiate The Crucible That 
Recreates Me In Your Image Today! 
Have Mercy, Lord, On Me! 
AMEN!

Stand Strong ... In Jesus Christ The Lord!

There Is No Child Of The Eternal God 
Who Should Ever Have Cause To Say With A Straight Face
Or Firm Conviction
That They Feel ... Or Know 
That They Have Been Forsaken 
By Our Lord Christ! 

To Say Such 
Is 
To Co-Sign The Gross Lie Of 
The Damned-For-All-Eternity Devil! 

As Christians Called To Walk By Faith 
And 
Not By The Lying Sight Of Fallen-Man Carnal Eyes
We Are Not To Trust 
What We See, Hear Or Feel! 

We Are To Faithfully
Enduringly, Wisely, Confidently Trust 
In The Living Word Of The All-Knowing God 
Whose Name
Whose Character
Is 
The Truth! 

Don't You Know ...

The Truth Cannot Be A Lie 
No Matter How Many Times And Ways 
You Slice And Dice It 
For A Man-Made Devil-Inspired Road-To-Hell Salad! 

Beloved, 

We Are Living In Strange, Wonderful
And, Yes
Painful Times
At The Cross-Road Of Time And Eternity
But
Now Is Not The Time 
To Let Loose Sinful Self-Absorbed Self To Studiedly Sing
"Oh, Woe Is Me!"
"Nobody Loves Me!"
"I Am Sooo Alone!"
And
The No. #1 Song On The Pity-Party Hit Parade:

"Why Me, Lord!?!"

Please Don't Look Down And Around 
And 
Focusing Inwardly
Dwell Morbidly Upon Your Current Circumstances! 
Please Look Up To 
Rely Upon
And 
Press Into The Lord Of Life 
Who Calls You To Come To His Side ... By Faith! 

The Lord Equips The Called: Believe In The Lord
And 
Passionately Pray On
Ardently Expecting Something Good To Happen! 

Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...

We Are Neither Forgotten 
Nor Forsaken 
Because 
We Are Sacrificially Loved: 
Our Names Are Engraved In Our Jesus Christ's Hands!
Find Your Perfect Peace In The Life Of The Lord
The Lord Of Life! 

Disgrace Satan Today:

Stand Strong In Jesus!
