CPA Versus CPR

Close Personal Association 

Faces Off Against

Close Personal Relationship

And

This Is No More Evident In The Bible Than

In The Outcomes Displayed Between 
Judas Iscariot And Jesus Christ

And

Jesus Christ And Simon Peter! 

In One Relationship ... The Servant Acts Like The Leader! 

In The Second Relationship ... The Savior Leads! 

In The Second Relationship

The Savior Does His Blessed Work
And

The Servant ... Given A New Name

Is 
Commissioned To Feed The Lord's Tender Lambs And Sturdy Sheep

And

This Faithful Servant

Enduringly Faithful To His Own Life's End

Has The Memorial Of His Faithfulness
Love And Worship Of His Blessed Lord

Displayed As A Foundation Of The Beautiful City ... Forever! 

The Other Is A Cautionary Tale

To All Who Are Tempted To Follow The Goat

The Devil

Satan

The Piercing Serpent

The Dragon

The Lord Of The Dung Flies! 

Remember, Brethren

CPAs Want Money

But

CPR Leads To Life ... With Our Lord Christ! 

Think About This: 

The Big Question We Have Before Is

How Is It Possible To Be In 

A Close, Intimate, Relationship With Jesus Christ

Holding A Position Of Trust 
Amongst His Trusted Disciples, Apostles

And Yet 
Have Satan Enter In Your Heart!?!

The Plain, Simple, Answer
Is
When We Allow Self To Be King

Greed To Be Master

Presumption To Be Our Motivator

And 

The Lust For Gain And Power To Be Our Propellant! 

You Can't See Your Self

And

Your Savior With Eyes On The Same Level

And

Expect Your Star To Rise! 

That's A Shooting Star! 

That's A Star Flaming ... Out! 

Beloved, 

Beware The Base Boaster

Who Blames Others For Self! 

Beware The Self-Serving Sinner

Who Encourages You To Put Your Saving Relationship

With Jesus Christ Our Lord And God

Upon The What-Not Aka Useless Things Shelf! 

We Cannot Serve Two Masters! 

We Must Love The Lord Christ... Exclusively 

Or We Shall End Up As Judas Did 
Betraying The Lord's Trust

Selling Out To The Call Of The World 
And 
Aligning With Satan
And 
Willingly Betraying The Lord Who, Alone, Saves Us! 

Judas Iscariot

Lost His Life ... His Chariot

Because

His Conveyance Moved On Lies! 

The End Of Judas Was That 

He Went From The Presence Of Jesus 
And

It Was Night ... Literally

And

Night Spiritually! 

There Was No More Light Of Life In His Soul

And 

He Went Out 
And 
Destroyed Himself ... Damned For Eternity

But

Not Before Feeling

And

Knowing

The Separation From Divinity
From The Lord Of Life!

He Knew The Blackness Of Darkness

The Breaking Of The Link ... With Heavenly Love! 

People, 

Presumption Is Knowing Right
And
Deliberately Doing Wrong
And Is
A Sin Like No Other
Because
We Mere Mortals Think We Can Tempt Almighty God!

See That You Don't Indulge In It

And

By The Grace Of Almighty God

Which Is Always Sufficient 

See To It That You Don't Sell Eternal Gold 
To Buy Perishable Silver! 

Faithfully Follow Jesus Christ And Live! 

May The Peace Of God Which Passes Human Understanding

Be Ever Yours!

HAPPY SABBATH + Spiritual Darkness!?! + PRAYER: We Have Hope In You, Lord!

When Darkness Descends Upon Man
It Is Not Because Almighty God's Grace Is Withdrawn!
Truth Is
Darkness Descends Upon Man

Because
He Has Rejected The Living God's Light
AND
That Without Just Cause!

The Eternal God's Light Is Given To All 

Who Will Receive It
While Faithfully Trusting The Giver
Who Is Also Our Maker!

That Light Accepted
Brings The Repentant Sinner
To His Knees
So That The Blessing Of The Grace Of God
- Exuding Mercy -
He May Continually Receive
BecauseIn The Holy God
He Truly Believes!

Accepting The Sovereign God's Light
Requires Man To Accept

AND

To Utilize

Jesus Christ's Holy Faith
The Measure Of Which
Each Day Is In Place

AND
Those Who Avail Themselves Of
The Daily Blessing Freely Shared
Have Nothing Of Soul Salvation
About Which To Be Scared!

Obviously ...

Light ... Lights!

Darkness ... Conceals!

Light
AND
Darkness
Cannot Inhabit The Same Field

AND
Likewise
In The Heart Of Man
Darkness And Light
Cannot
Will Never Hold Hands
AND
All Who Choose
By Almighty God's Grace
To Spread Their Received Light
Shall Be To Our Master
- Our Heavenly Father -
A Truly Blessed

- Hedged In -

Delight!

Brethren, Beloved
I Charge Us All Here

AND

In Plains Words Clear
Please Walk In Jesus Christ's Shed Light
AND
That Without Fear!

He Who Sends Us To Labor 

Is

Almighty!
He Who Feeds Us 

Is

The Creator God
Loving Giving
AND
To Our Hearts Dear
AND
We May Walk Boldly
Humbly
- Without Decimating Pride -
Doing The Lord's Bidding
Until Death
Or
Christ Comes
AND
We 

- The Church Triumphant -

Cross The Great Divide!

Brethren,
Be Bold

AND

Be The Pointed Light Against The Gathering Darkness!
Let The Light Of The Living God
- The Light Of Life Within You -
Shine Forth Until The Day Dawns

For
Then Comes The Great Reward!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,

Hear Our Prayer!

We Are Believing Children

And

We Are Drawing To You, Near!

Bless Us, Lord

To Let Our Lights Brightly Shine

So That We May Tell A Brother

A Sister

A Neighbor

A Dear Friend

That Jesus Christ Is Soon Returning

And

That On Him We May Confidently Depend!

Father,

We Trust You

For

You Are The Living God Eternal

And

You Cannot Lie!

You Are The Blessing God Able

And

By Your Living Word Of Truth

We Can The Adversary Boldly Defy!

Father,

Please Bless Us To Make The Living Word

As Necessary As Our Daily Food

And

Please Lead Us Into All Righteousness

As We Attend The King Of Love's School!

Lord,

Guard Us

Guide Us

Bless Us With Bodily Peace

And

Soul Rest!

Teach Us To Love One another

And

Help Us Our Known Sins To Confess!

Father,

We Truly Need You

For

You Are Our Only God

And

We Approach Unto You

Not Fearful

But Supremely Sure

That You Will Not Turn Us Away!

We Worship You, Dear Father

And

We Bless Your Holy Name!

We Truly Treasure Our Gift

Which Was Your Sacrifice

And

Determinedly Abhor

The Demonic Device!

Lord,

We Will to Do Your Will!

We Long To See Your Face!

We Have Hope For A Grand Tomorrow

And

That Forever

And, As Promised

Without Sorrow!

Lead Us Into All Righteousness

By Your Holy Spirit

And

Protect Us By Your Holy Angels

And

Grant Unto Us These Few Petitions

For

We Ask All In The Only Name Of Him

By Whom

We Are Saved

Jesus Christ

The Lamb Of God!

We Love You, Lord!

AMEN.
