I Know ... I Accept ... I Am Glad!

I Know That I'm A Sinner!

I Accept That I Cannot Save Myself!

I Am Glad That Jesus Christ Loves Me!

I Know That I Need A Savior!

Leads To My Worn Crown! 

Jesus Christ Loves Me!

He Calls Me To Sure Salvation 

And

By Doing His Holy Will

Jesus Christ Does Not Indulge In Fraud

Brethren, 

It Is Only When We Choose To Align Ourselves

- Yielding Our Will And Our Way - 

To Jesus Christ That We Can Successfully Guard Our Hearts 

Against The Siren Song Of Sin That 

Leads The Careless And Contrary Soul To Destruction! 

Rude Mouths Write Bad Checks! 

Rigid Backs Bear Unnecessary Blows 

And 

The Unrepentant Soul 

Is 

Marked For Destruction 

Because 

He Refuses To Be Corrected Or Guided! 

See The Difference ...

Consider Satan! 

Consider King Saul

And Then

Consider Our Savior, Christ Jesus

Who Acceded To His Father's Wishes

And

By His Willing Obedience

Died To Save Us All Resident On The Blue Ball! 

Beloved, 

Do Not Be Hard-Headed Nor Hard-Hearted 

For Willful Disobedience Yields An Inedible Harvest! 

Please Take Heed To The Cautions Of The Living Word
And

Choose To Be Humble And Obedient

And 

Humbly Open Your Hand ... Your Attached-To-Christ-Heart

To Receive Sure Promises 
And 
Always Rich Blessings! 

Never Forget, Brethren

Jesus Christ Is Our Only Peace!
Jesus Christ Utterly Saves Us From Sin!

Almighty God Is Particular And Specific!

We Know Of A Surety ...

The Wages Of Sin = DEATH
The Gift Of Almighty God = ETERNAL LIFE

What You Reap = WHAT YOU SOWED
Give = GET BACK

Sow The Wind = REAP ... THE WHIRLWIND

Honor Your Father and Mother = LONG LIFE IN THE LAND 
Do Good = GOOD ATTENDS YOU

Confess Your Sin = ALMIGHTY GOD WILL FORGIVE
Repent = BE BAPTIZED

Walk by Faith = DON'T TRUST YOUR EYESIGHT
Know Jesus Christ The Lord = KNOW FATHER GOD

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

I Awakened Early One Sabbath Morning 
Only To Hear An Older Woman's Voice 
Coming Through The Bedroom Window Cheerily Singing:

Trust And Don't Pay!

Thief And Don't Care!

Huh!?!

And She Sang It Again! 
And Again! 
... And Again!

Yup!
It Was Real
And She Had Obviously Lost Her Mind! 
... Or Had She?

She Did Not Sound Inebriated! 
She Sounded ... Well ... Normal!

I Was Stunned Out Of My Gourd!

Let's Do Some Math ...

Older Woman = Elder Statesperson

Yup!
This Was An Elder Statesperson
Singing Aloud Some Really Bad Advice
As Though She Was On A Mission!

Could I Assume She Had Not Gotten The Memo

And

Was Headed

- Lacking Living Truth -

To A Collison!?!

Or, Perhaps

She Was A Change Agent For The Fraud

And

Earning Her Daily Pay!

She Was Singing Like She Didn't Care!

Whatever Her Reason

She Wasn't Working For The Holy God

And

It Is Certain That Her Siren Song

Would Land A Foolish One ... Thinking Flawed

In The Clutches Of The Law!

Facts Rule ...

Man, Broken
- Financially, Spiritually, Emotionally -

Cares Not Who He Breaks Down

And

This Is As It Has Been

From The Time Of The Beginning

When Big Brother Cain Wanted Baby Brother Abel

To Indulge In Rebellion
Against The "Thus Saith The Lord!"

And

Because Abel Refused To Indulge
In Willful Disobedience

He Killed Him! 

Just Like Satan

Cain Was A Card-Holding Hellion!

But ... 

Be Ye Warned, Brethren In The Truth:

Almighty God
The Eternal One
The God Of All Graces
Is 
Particular And Specific
And
Decidedly Not Wildly Capricious

Running His Business As Does The Loose Goose!

Almighty God Is The God Of Order

And

He Does Not Make Mistakes
And

Under No Circumstance
Will Almighty God
Wickedness And Rebellion Tolerate

So

If You Hear One Of The Elders
- Be It Mother Father Uncle Auntie
Neighbor Brother Sister Friend
Preacher Pastor Employer Town Ruler
Prophet Priest President Pope King -

Chanting A Fair Ditty

Don't Bite

Because That Fair Ditty Is A Wicked Kitty

That Spits, Scratches And Tears

Though Its Purrs Sound

Oh, So Witty!

Don't Brush That Kitty

But
- Of Necessity -

Esteem The Holy One With Godly Fear!
