Smells Good Doesn't Mean Tastes Great!

The Longer We Spend Outside The Safe Fold

The Shorter Will Be Our Time To Knowingly Enjoy 

The Goodness And Grace Of The Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

We Are Called To Soul Salvation 

And

We Need To Climb Up Higher On The Upward Way: 

Why Waste Time With Useless Things 

When We May Draw Closer To The Living God 

Each And Every Day!?! 

Know The Facts ...

All That Glitters Is Not Gold! 

Smell Good Doesn't Mean Taste Great! 

Beautiful Often Means Rotten 

And

Those Who Encourage You To Join Them In Bold Sin 

Cannot And Will Not Save You! 

Jesus Christ, The Forever Friend 

And 

Faithful Companion To Life's End

Calls, Cares, Keeps, Cleans, Comforts, Carries

And 

Consoles! 

He Asks, Answers

And

Accepts! 

He Loves, Leads

And 

Lifts! 

He Shepherds, Seeks, Saves, Sanctifies

And 

Seals! 

Be Comforted ...

Jesus Christ Died To Deliver Us From Death And Hell 

And

He Is Calling Us To Himself! 

Jesus Christ Is Everything We Need

All That We Desire 

And

More Than We Can Ever Think To Dream Of Or Acquire! 

Brethren, Beloved

Our Dear Savior Loves You Personally ... Intimately

With An Everlasting Love: 

Nothing ... Material Or Spirit 

Can Ever Separate You From His Everlasting Love! 

I Beseech Us All 

Please Do Not Permit What Presently Is 

To Deny You The Blessed Pleasure Of Certain Hope!

 

Let's Boldly Walk In 

And

Work Our Daily Gift Of Unfailing Faith 

And

Look Up To Rise Up 

To Meet Our Dear And Soon-Coming Lord In The Air!

The Trumpet Shall Sound! 

MAN MUST MAKE HIS OWN DECISION: The Trumpet Shall Sound And ...!

Every Man, Woman, Child

Must His Own Decision Make!

We ... Of The Household Of Faith

We're Listening For The Lord Of Life's Lone Trumpet! 

True, But Most Of The Nations' People Are Listening 

To The Enthralling, Encompassing, Orchestral Arrangement Of 

The Lost And Dying World!

We Do Not Dress, Walk
Or The Same Language Speak
For Their Customs And Practices Of 

Satan's Stench

Does Overwhelmingly Reek!

The Lord Said: 

"Don't!" 
Satan Says: 

"Do!"

The Lord Says: 

"Sanctify Yourself!" 
Satan Says: 

"Satisfy The Royal We!"

The Lord Says: 

"Confess, And Of Known Sin, Repent!" 
Satan Says: 

"Fornicate, Adulterate, Abominate
For You Will Soon Have Another Lent!"

The Lord Says: 

"Guard Your Heart!" 
Satan Says: 

"Let Everyone His Own Heart Regard!"

The Lord Says: 

"Invite The Holy Spirit
Your Daily Life To Lead!"
Satan Says: 

"Ingest The Spirits 

And As A Profligate You Will Succeed!"

The Lord Says: 

"Look Up And Live!" 
Satan Says: 

"Look Around And Live It Up!"

The Lord Says: 

"Have Faith!" 
Satan Says: 

"Have Faith, Fanny, Felicia

Felicity, Frank, Francis And Felix!"

The Lord Says: 

"Come Before Me 

And Worship And Bow Down!"
Satan Says: 

"Worship Before Me! Bow And Come Down!"

The Word Of The Lord
Is
Plain And Straight!
The Word Of Satan 

Is 

Ambiguous
And
Follows The Path Of The Accursed Snake!

The Word Of The Lord
Is
The Truth
And
Is The Light That Gives Life!

The Word Of Satan
Is
The Lie That Benights
And
Always Embroils One In Sure
And
Damnable Strife!

The Lord Jesus Christ Lives Forever!
Satan Shall Die Forever!

The Lord Jesus Christ Offers Glory
For Me And For Thee!
Satan Promulgates Heresy That 

Damns Himself
And 

Every Believing-As-He-Does Body!

Jesus Christ The Lord ... Always Saves
And
Always Will
Those Repentant Ones Who To Him
Their Broken Lives Give!

Satan The Piercing Serpent Cannot, Will Not, Save
And
He Takes His Perverse Pleasure 

From Knowing That He Wantonly Hope Kills!
He Always, Always, The Unwary Soul Destroys!

Choices, Chances
Fate Or Faith
Doubt, Disbelief, Trust:
We Need Truth So That With This Life 

We May Hope To Cope!

Man Must Make His Decision
For Good ... For Life
Or For Self ... To Live In Sin

And
It Is Certain That

Not Almighty God On Heaven's Throne
Nor Satan Bound For Hell
Can Stay Nor Steer The Decision!

The Bottom Line ...

Choosing Life Everlasting
Or
Everlasting Separation From Almighty God
Is 

The Known Sinner's  

Private, Personal, Uncoerced, Decision!

A NEW SONG: In The Cross Of Christ I Glory!

In The Cross Of Christ, I Glory! 
In His Blessed Hand, I Am Inscribed! 
I Shall Walk The Walk Of Faith As One Victorious 
Because 
I Know That I'm In His Heart 
And 
Am The Apple Of His Eye!

In The Cross Of Christ, I Glory!
In His Truth, My Heart Knows Peace!
In His Rest, I Know Soul-Comfort
Because
He Is My Hope, My Help
And
My Blessed Relief: To Me, He Will Never Lie!

In My Jesus, The Lovely Jesus
I Am Alive And Soul-Satisfied!
He Is My Healer
My Leader
My Sealer
And
By His Dear Grace
I Shall Not Be Denied!

After God's Trumpet's Last, Loud, Blast
I Shall Stand Amazed, Victorious
On The Sparkling Sea Of Glass!
I Shall Live Forever In The Glorious Presence
Having Been Immortalized
Glorified
Rid, Rid, Finally, Of The Sordid Past!

(Repeat)
In The Cross Of Christ, I Glory! 
In His Blessed Hand, I Am Inscribed! 
I Shall Walk The Walk Of Faith As One Victorious 
Because 
I Know That I'm In His Heart 
And 
Am The Apple Of His Eye!
