TOMORROW, TOMORROW: Today!





I Was In The Popular Station Of Life!
The Get Away Platform Was Crowded For Sure!
Everybody I Observed Had Their Tickets Waving
Including That Big Man Named Gully Boar!

PIS Aka The Passenger Information System Was Whirring!
Myriad Transports To Tomorrow Were Scheduled
And
All Were Plainly Noted 
To Be Exactly On Time!

More And More People Were Arriving
But
Only Those For Living For Jesus
Salvation Way
Jesus Christ Saves
Final Generation
Today's The Day
And
Gateway To Tomorrow
Were Departing!

Grumbling Was Starting!
It Soon Became A Dull Roar!
Security Wasn't Bothered It Was Said
Because
They'd Seen It All Before!

Step Back A Bit ...

The Station Of Life
Is
An Ever-Moving Turn-Table!
Destinations Are Marked Plainly
And
Boldly Underscored!

Travellers ... Having Free Will
And
Free Choice
- No Coercion, No Bumping Up Nor Down -
Choose Their Preferred Destination
And
By Confidence In Self
In Satan
In Sin
In Salvation
In The Savior
In Grace And Mercy
In Temporal ... Or Eternal Security
They Decide If At Living
They Win Or The Lose!

Life Is Spent ...

Tired Of Wandering
I Paused To Wonder
And
Without Preamble
A Beautiful White Dove Landed On My Shoulder
- I Wasn't Startled Or Afraid -
And
Whispered Sweetly In My Ear:

Tomorrow Is Not Promised To Mortal Man!
Only Those Who Choose Life Eternal
With The Blessed Son Of Man
Shall Arrive At The Day
That Surely Will Not End!

They Will Arrive At The Day Where Life Is Eternal
Where He Who Made Time For Man
Extends His Welcoming Hand
To Those Who Worship Gladly And Believe Boldly
Who Trust The Word And Obey Despite Discomfort
Who Walk Wise And Pray Persistently
Who Look Up And Practice Godly Fear
Who Confess Sin And Repent Humbly
Who Love The Lord And Listen To The Spirit's Still Voice
Who Seek Righteous And Don't Trust Their Own Understanding

Who Reflect On God's Goodness And Rest By His Grace
Who Hope With Certainly And Endure Faithfully

And
Reach Out To The Lord Christ 
The Cure For All That Ails Fallen Man
Who Made Blessed Provision For His Children
Who Is Touched By Your Infirmities
Who Was Tried, Tested, Tortured And Died
Who Overcame So That You Can
Who Is Calling, Ever Calling
Extending His Sure, Steady, Strong, Unshakeable, Helping Hand!


Grow Where You Are Planted!
Live Triumphantly In His Name Where You Are
And
Bless Others While You Can

For There Is No Life
And
No Love
In The Grave Where Thou Goest!
Book Your Berth For Surpassing Glory Now!
The Best Day Is Today!


Choose Christ In This Now-Acceptable Time
And
You Shall Enjoy The Glorious New Birth!

Dying, Dying, Slowly Dying
Are The Unprofitable Things Of This Earth!

My Head Felt Light!
My Eyes Flared!
My Ears Tingled!
Doubt Departed!
Hope Appeared!
Grace Smile!
Mercy Spread Her Arms Wide!
Love Exploded!
Truth Stood Up
And
Deceitful, Murdering-Hope Satan Ferociously Cried!

No Bragging Allowed ...

I Am Free: So Very Free! 
I Am Free Indeed!
I Am Touched By The Crimson Flow
Which I Had Not Known I Needed
Until I Had Encountered
The One Called The Door!

I Have No Desire To Wrestle With The Impossible
The Tomorrow Touted
By The One Whose Time Is Short
The One Who Encourages Us
Our Babies, Our Future
Our Certain Hope To Abort
And
To Store Up Lust-Driven Experiences
And
Things
- Supposed Treasures -
Which Will Not Consuming-Fire Survive
Which Will Not Survive The Journey
The Journey To Eternal Life!

The Facts Remain ...

No Matter How Much Weight
How Much Money 
You Gain Or Lose
The Mortal Strife Is Fought Today!

Repentance For Sin Must Be Rendered Today
And
The Decision For The Lord Christ Must Be Made Today
For That That Is Promised To Man
- Known Resident In The Vale Of Tears -
Will Not Be Available Tomorrow
Because
By The Sovereign Will Of The Eternal Holy God
It Is Only Available
Accessible
Usable
Today, Today
No Matter What The Adversary Says!

Man's Day
Man's Hour
Man's Moment In The Sun
To Know The Son
Is
Always Today!

Be Wise:
Carpe Diem!

HAPPY SABBATH + Going To Jesus Christ For Refuge! + PRAYER: Keep Us Faithful, Lord!




The Repentant Sinner Turned Christian 
Is 
A Refugee
Running From The World Of Sin
Unto Jesus Christ's Sure Salvation!
He Who Was Once A Sinner Bold
Runs To The Lord Christ 
- The Lord Of Life -
For Refuge
AND
He Does Not Continue In Willful Sinning
If
He Desires To Save His Own Soul
AND
The Battle Against Sin
To Win!

That Is A Whole Sermon You Just Preached!

Indeed It Was
And If He Asked For An Offering
I Would Give It Freely!

To Live For, By And In Constant Sin
Is A Matter Of Convenience
Is A Matter Of Choice
Is A Matter Of Wearing A Well-Worn Shoe
BUT
It Gains One No Benefit
No Blessing
In The Walk With The Lord!

Our Going To Jesus Christ For Refuge
Does Not Mean That
We Can Take Over The Lord's House!
It Does Not Mean That
We Can Carry And Maintain Our Cherished Bad Habits
AND
Believe That Jesus Christ Will Permit Us
To Remain In Condition The Same
Just To Make Us Feel Comfortable
AND
By So Doing
Cause His Holy House
His Holy Name
To Be Profaned!

In The Lord's House ...

Is Peace
Rest
Truth
Goodness
Light
Holy Sight!
There Is Faith
Grace
Blessing
Mercy
AND
Correction
AND
Direction
AND
All Who Live In The House
Must Abide By The Conditions
AND
The Rules For Walking 
On The Straight And Narrow Road
OR
They Will Be Cast Out
Into Outer Darkness
Forever Separated From Him Who 
Is 
The Way
The Truth
The Light That Gives Life!

Their Decision Is By Choice
To Walk Wild On The Edge Of A Razor-Sharp Knife!

Those Who Find Refuge In Jesus
Find Peace With Our Father God ...!

...And Live Life Truly Abundantly
Trusting In The Ways Of Our Lord!

We Must Do The Will Of Him Who Calls Us
And Sends Us!

Indeed!
We Must Walk In The Light Of His Life!
We Must Live According To His Desire For Our Lives
AND
We Must Faithfully Look To Him For Our Salvation
Our Only Way Out  Of The Carnal Strife!

Thankfully, There Is Blessing 
For All To Trust In The Lord Jesus!

AMEN!

There Is Hope Of Sure Reward
AND
There Is Pleasant Daily Work
To Keep Our Hands Out Of 
The Damned Devil's Workshop
AND
There's Food And Drink
That Can Only Come For The Holy God!

All Refugees From Sin
Who Run To Jesus Christ The Lord
Will Be Saved Into The Kingdom Of Light
As Long As They Stand Firm
AND
Endure All Things To The End
In The Faith Of Jesus
AND
Not Turn Again To Folly
AND
Living The Life Of A Known Disgrace!

Praise God!

They Will Be 
Enlivened
Immortalized
Crowned
Applauded
Lauded
AND
Feasted
On The Glorious Day
When Only Those
Who Obediently Walked And Talked
AND
Lived And Loved
As Their Master Did
Will Hear His

"Well Done, Faithful Servant!
Enter Into The Joy Of Thy Lord!"

Jesus Christ 
Is
The Rock Of Our Salvation!
The Shepherd Of Our Rest!
Our Strong Tower!
The Prince Of Peace!
The Lord In Whom Is Everlasting Strength!
The Rock Of Ages!
The Life-Giver!
The Creator!
AND
Our Blessedness!

Thank God For Sin-Relief And Death-Release!!


PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,
You Are Our Refuge And Strength
And
Our Ever-Present Help
In Our Times Of Trouble!
Thank You For
The Always Available Grace
Mercy
Faith
Hope
Help
And
Healing!
Thank You For
The Immeasurable Sacrifice
And
The Blessing That Sees Us
Entering Into Your Rest!

Father,
We Come To You
Because You Love Us And Bless Us
And
Because We Willingly Return Your Love
And
Seek To Live In Your Will!
Please Keep Us In Your Care
And
Bless Us To Become What You Have
In Your Wisdom
Ordained Us To Become!

We Repose Our Free Will
And
Our Free Choice
Into Your Safe-Keeping
And
Will To Let You Be
The Sovereign Lord Of Our Lives!

Thank You For The Victory Over Sin
For The Many Blessings
For Which We Did Not Ask
For The Treasures
You Are Helping Us
To Lay Up In Heaven
And For
Our Daily Walking With
Christ The Lord!

Please Keep Us Faithful
And
May The Holy Spirit Ever Abide
And
The Holy Angels Influence Us For Good
And
Ever Protect As We Choose
To Walk In Righteousness
And
Heavenly Wisdom!

Please Bless Us To See Our Jesus Christ
In Sweet Peace
Is Our Hearts' Plea!
Come Soon!
AMEN.

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Almighty God Rules ... In The Affairs Of Men!

There Is An Old Adage:

Look For Trouble
And It You Shall Surely Find!

And

The Bible States:

If The Almighty God Says 
"Speak To The Rock!"Don't Bash It Repeatedly
When Anger Is In Your Spine!

If The Almighty God Says
"Walk!"That Is What You Must Do!
Do Not Mind What Others Are Doing
For
The Almighty God Says
Obedience Causes Him
To More Lovingly Care For You!

The Almighty God Raises Up Kings
AND
He Takes Kings Away!
Some Are Anointed
AND
Appointed To Bless
AND
Others Are Appointed For Our Chastisement
When From The Holy God's Tenets
We Boldly Go Astray
Willfully Sinning
Seeing Nothing About Sin To Confess!

Just Think Of King Jeroboam
Used By The Lord
With The Promise:

Obedience By You Will Be Blessed!


Look, Again, At Jeroboam
And SeeFlagrant Disobedience
After
He Started To Buy Into His Own Press!
He Considered Himself A Great Success!

Understand That ...

Any Person Willing
May Be Used ... Valiantly
In The Cause Of God
BUT
Watch The Blessing
Turned Into Cursing
When Pride
Causes A Vile Linkup
With The Wily Fraud!

The Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar
Was Appointed To Be Blessed!
He Conquered The World
And Then AssumedThat All His Glories
Were By His Own Prowess!

But, Now ...

Look ... At His Punishment
View ... His Repentance
Applaud ... His Reappointment By God
AND
Know
Understand
Appreciate
Accept
See That
There. Is. No. Blessing.
In Less-Counting The Holy God!

Chastisement Is A Faithful Rod!

Almighty God Rules
In The Affairs Of Men!
For Good Or For Ill
He Can Appoint Even The Basest Of Men! 

A Base Man May Be Low-Born
Or
A High-Born Man Who Is Mind Is Base
AND
In Beholding Such A Circumstance
You Will Recognize That The Almighty God
Is
Sovereign
AND
You Will Know
To Keep Your Eyes Steadfastly Fixed Upon Him!

Please ...

Let Us Pray For Our Leaders
That They Permit Themselves 
To Be Used For Good
AND
By The Holy God
AND
Let Us Also Pray For Yourselves
That We Do Not Look Up To Mere Men
As We Should Look To The Saving God!

Don't ...

Pray Ill For Any Man
Because
There Is No Blessing In That!
Just Pray In Faith
For Healing!
For Heeding! 
AND
Do The Works Of Him Who Sends You
AND
Trust
AND
Obey The Lord Christ Jesus
Who Is Our Guide
Until Our Own Lives
Or
This Mortal Life Ends!

Almighty God 
Is 
Ever Always In Perfect Control
And

He Does Not Share His Glory
With False Gods
False Prophets
Beast Powers
Nor
That Dragon
Satan The Fraud

So
Look Unto Jesus Christ
Learn From Jesus Christ 
Lean Upon Jesus Christ
The Author
And
Finisher Of Your Most Holy Faith
Because
He Will Not Ever
Let You Down!

He, Alone, Wears
The Eternal Crown!

Notes For A Sermon: - Living With Comfortable Lies!


Dear Ones:

Here Is A Framework For A Sermon Which I Wish I Could Preach!

Opening Hymn: Great Is Thy Faithfulness


1 Timothy 6:19-21King James Version (KJV)

19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

There Is Nothing, Nobody, And No News More Important Than The Word That We Are To Fix The Issue Of Acquiring Our Own Soul's Salvation, And Getting Right With God Through The Saving Grace Provided To Us BECAUSE Jesus Died That We May Really Live!


John 10:10King James Version (KJV)

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

There Is Nothing On This Earth That Truly Shines Save Those Sanctified ie., Set Apart,  And Those Justified ie., Made Right By And In Jesus Christ, And Faithfully WAITING To Be Glorified On The Great Day!

Man Has Broken The DNA Code! That Is Shocking News And A Profound Development, And Shows Us Truly, That We Are Indeed Living In The Last Days!

Man Is Promising To Render Religion And By Extension, God, Obsolete, By 2019 For They Believe That They Can Give Man ... Immortality!!

Nevertheless, If Truth Is Told, 262,000 Pages With 3,000,000,000 Characters Of DNA Code Does No Give Fallen Man, Juiced Up Scientists And That Damned Satan The Ability To Make An Immortal And Perfect Human Being, Even Though They Believe That They Can!

If God Does Not Finish The Game Of Circus That Human Beings Are Playing, He Will Have To Resurrect The Pre-Flood World,  AND Apologize!

Do You, Do I, Do We Really Want Our Best Life Now, And Out Of A Bottle?

God Almighty Says, Quite Plainly:






Aren't You Glad For An Unchangeable - Solid Rock - God?


He Also Says, Again, Quite Plainly,


Jeremiah 32:27King James Version (KJV)

27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

ALL That The Journey Into Madness Does Is Expose Satan's Hand And Confirm The Word Of God AND Bible PROPHECY That There Is Nothing New Under The Sun!

Man Has Been Busy Playing God From Time Immemorial, And You Can See The Grubby Finger Prints Of The Master Con-Man At The Center Of It All!

So, With That Said, How About Believing The Word Of The God Who Can, And Not The Lying Words Of The Also-Ran?

How About Trusting Your Care To Your Creator?


Proverbs 3:5-6King James Version (KJV)

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

How About Letting God Feed Your Soul And Not Let The Liar Cause You To Be Left Off Of Heaven's Citizenship Roll?


Philippians 3:20-21King James Version (KJV)

20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

God Is Not Dead No Matter What Satan-Influenced Men Say!

God Is Not Dying! Satan - The Lord Of The Dung - Is, And Soon To Be Forever Dead! Praise The Glorious Day! 

God - Father, Son AND Holy Spirit - Alone,  Is Immortal, And Eternally Wise!


1 John 5:7King James Version (KJV)

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Jesus Christ Is The Word! And The Words Of The Word Are The Words That We NEED To, And Must, Trust!
Search The Scriptures, The King James Bible And Not The Corrupted Bibles That Speak Comfortably Of Sin And Denigrate Jesus Christ, Our Only Creator, Savior, And Redeemer - Our Only Hope! There Is Hidden Treasure For The Soul!

Any Bible That Permits Us To Call Sin By Any Other Name Is Not The Preserved Word Of God!


Psalm 119:89King James Version (KJV)

89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
Who Is Going To Go Up Into Heaven And Change God's Settled Word?
Can God Lie?

Numbers 23:19King James Version (KJV)

19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

Despite The Popular Lie
You Can Indeed Know That You Are Saved!

Despite The Popular Lie
You, Me, We Will NOT Be Saved In Sin!

Despite The Popular Lie
We Can Indeed Live A Sinless Life!

Despite The Popular Lie
We Can Indeed Put Satan Under Our Feet
If
We Have 
AND
Hold Fast
The Faith Of Jesus Christ!

Despite The Popular Lie
Satan 
CANNOT 
Make Us Sin 
BUT 
He Can Tempt Us 
BUT NOT 
Beyond Our Endurance 
For God - Because Of Jesus Christ's Sacrifice -
Will - With The Temptation -
Provide A Way Of Escape!


1 Corinthians 10:13King James Version (KJV)

13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

COMBATTING SIN:

Sin Will Come Up To Us 
BUT
That Does Not Mean That We Are Powerless 
AND
That We Have To Go With It Where It Leads!


We Have A Very Private
Yet Public

Personal - Not Secret - 
Weapon
At Our Right Hand 
That Is Encoded As Prayer 
Which Manifests 
Into The Always Available
Ever-Saving ... JESUS!

Jesus Is Here There, And Everywhere 
For Those Who Choose To Believe
Who Choose To Love Him
Who Choose To Trust Him At His Word
Who Choose To Obey
AND
Do What He Says
AND
Do It When He Says It Is To Be Done!

Beloved, Believe ... And Live!

Pray To The Father
In Jesus Christ The Son's Name
AND
Under The Agency  Of The Holy Spirit
Permitting Him To Take Control Of Our Prayers
Because We Do Not Know Of Our Own Selves 
How We Should Really Pray!
The Spirit Intercedes For Us!


Romans 8:26King James Version (KJV)

26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

When Your Need
My Need
- By Heartfelt Prayer -
Is In Accordance
With The Sovereign Will Of Almighty God For Us
We Will Be Blessed!

Take A Moment Right Now,  And Humbly Approach Almighty God, Confessing And Repenting Of All Your Known Sin, And Inquire - As A Greatly Beloved Child - What Is Your Father's Will For Your Life In This Day.

Altar Call:  I Can Hear My Savior Calling!

Thought For The Days Ahead:



The Savior Is Calling!
If You Choose To Listen To Him
You Will Hear
What He Has
For You To Do!

When You Hear The Lord
Obey And Do!
Do Not Hesitate!
Trust And Move!

The Living God
- Who Sends You -
Whom You Choose
To Let Lead Out In Your Life
Will Ever Always
Take Care Of You!


Hymn Of Praise: We Are Marching To Zion!

I Pray That You Are Blessed With The Truth That Is The Gospel, And That You Will Walk - Faithfully - Unto Salvation!
