HIDDEN FROM MAN: Open To Almighty God!

Too Doubtful To Dare Have Faith!
Too Faithless To Will To Endure!
Too Worried To Have Trust In God
But
Oh, So Willing
To Embrace The Willful Ways Of
The Fraud Who Wants The Worship
Due To The Eternal God!

Too Proud To Be Humble!
Too Vain To Be Wise
And
Too Wayward And Willful To See 
How Wicked Are Satan's Base And Bold Lies!

Too Sharp-Tongued To Consider
That Man Must Account For His Words!
Too Angry To Consider That
Unchecked Emotions Sharpens Swords!

Too Wasteful To Even Wonder
What Want Is To Those Who Have None!
Too Callous-Minded To Wonder
If Contemplated Actions Are Whispers From
The Evil Mind Of That Devil, Satan!

Too Wild To Exercise Will-Power!
Too Weak-Willed To Deny Self!
Too Selfish To Think Of Others
But
Wantonly Demanding The Satisfaction Of Personal Desire
Even While Knowing That That Desire
Always Leads To Torment's Blazing Fire!

But ... 

There Is A But That Puts A Period To Known Sin
And
All Who Choose To Follow Self
And
Walk In The Shadows ... In The Darkness 
With Him Who Dishonored Almighty God
And
Denigrated And Demeaned
Tormented And Murdered
The Father's Only Begotten Son
And
Sowed The Seeds Of Discontent
Disobedience, Destruction And Death
Jealousy, Envy, Greed, Hate
Murden, Mendacity, Mediocrity
Hedonism, Idolatry
False Oaths, False Witness
Sorrow And Pain
Shall Never Know Jesus Christ's Salvation
Which, Always, Is Eternal Gain!

Rich ... In Trespasses ...

Think And Do ... Wrong!
Do Wrong And Be ... Damned
Damned To Eternal Separation
Permanent Darkness ... Nothingness
Never, Ever, Seeing The Eternal Goodness
The Eternal Light
The Light That Heals And Seals!

Rich ... In Jesus Christ The Lord ...

Think ... And Pray ... And Do ... Right!
Do Right And Be ... Blessed
Blessed To Live For Eternal Ages
Glorified, Immortalized
In Eternal Peace 
With The Holy One Who Is Our Peace
Who Gives Us His Peace
In This Present Evil Age
A Peace That Passes Human Understanding
So That We Do Not With Satan Rage
Disgracing The Holy Name
The Name Above All Names
That Does Not, Cannot, Will Not
Ever Cause The Believer ... The Faithful Saint
To Know Or Feel Ashamed!

Think About The Lord Christ ...

There's Sunlight, Daylight
Twilight, Moonlight 
And 
Electric Light And More
But 
There Is No Light More Necessary 
To The Life Of Man Than The Light Of Life
The Sun Of Righteousness
The Son Of The Living God
Jesus Christ The Lord
The Life Of Every Man! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous
- Into Whose Hands Is Given All Things -
Sees, Knows, And Feels All Things

And 

Is In Everything 

And 

There Is Nothing That We Hide From Man 
That Is Not Known To Him! 

You May Hide And Buy Land

But You Can't Hide And Reap It!

If What You're Doing Must Be Hidden From Man

Then It Is Time To Stop Doing It! 
Jesus Christ Is Our Judge 

And 

He Knows The Answers To All The Questions
That You Will Have To Answer
So You Can't Lie To Him! 

I Beseech You, Brethren,

Do The Good 
And The Right 
And Walk In The Son's Light 
To Be Saved And Blessed! 

Humble Yourself
And 
Live Abundantly ... Now
To Live Gloriously ... Later
And
Forever! 

If Someone Cannot Give You True Bread

Do Not Permit Them To Take

Your Known, Tried And Tested Biscuit

From Almighty God

Out Of Your Needy Mouth!

A Little Bit

Gratefully Received

 From The True And Living God

And

By Faith Eaten ... Utilized

In The True Light

*** With Contentment ***

Is

Pure Gold

When Compared To

The Mountains Of Pyrite

- Fool's Gold -

- The Dust Of Disobedience -

Used To Indulge Sin

Received From The Accursed Hand

Of

Satan The Damned

Who Cannot Create

And

Who Only Destroys!

HAPPY SABBATH + GRACE: Please Take It!

Almighty God's Grace
Day By Day
Moment By Moment
Does Not Cease To Amaze Me!

Most, Most, Most Assuredly ... Mine!

Amazing Grace

Places Me

On

The "To Heaven!" Incline!

I Trust The Giver Of All Precious And Pleasant Gifts
And
I Will Not Be Left Behind
Because
Toward Doubting Truth
I Was Recognizably Swift!

I Choose To Walk With Wisdom
To Be A Willing, Ready, Doer
And 
Not Just a Hearer Of The Word
Because
I Desire To Eternally Inhabit
The Lot Which The Lord Says 
- As An Overcomer -
Is 
Irrevocably Mine!

Almighty God's Grace Gives Me Power
By Prior Proof
     With Current Action
          For Present Blessing
And
Future, Eternal, Gain!

Almighty God's Grace 
Sows Seeds For Salvation
And
I Wittingly, Willingly, Eat Its Sweet Fruit!
It's All Gain ... No Shame!

Grace Let's Me Rest
     Gives Me Hope
          Shores Up My Faith
And
Assures Me Of My Own Soul's Free Gift Of
Eternal Salvation!
I Must Tell The Nation!

Almighty God's Grace

Is

Guiding Light!

Almighty God's Grace Is Food:

Salt ... Tenderizes, Seasons And Sanitizers, Preserves
Wheat ... Makes Good Bread For Leisurely Eating, Says That I Am His, Saved
Oil ... Anoints Me For His Glory And Makes Palatable The Bread Of The Word
Water ... Washes Away Sin, Slakes My Thirst For Truth
Wine ... Good Doctrine In And Out Of Season

Almighty God's Grace 
Is 
Sufficient For Me!
Almighty God's Grace Fills And Satisfies Me!

Believe And Live ...

No One Falling On The Good Lord's Grace 
Will Ever Be Denied
Be Sent Away Empty-Handed
Cast Aside
Cast Out!

All Willing Are Welcome!
For Mercy, By Grace
In Truth For Love
Unto Our Glorious God Importunately Cry!

Grace Is Not A Lie ...

Take Grace Because You Believe It Blesses!
Share The Good News Because You Received Grace 
And 
Are Blessed!
Give Thanks For Your Precious Gift Of Grace
Because
With It, By It, Through It 
Old Satan Cannot Your Oft' Hurting Heart Deceive!

Grace
     Mercy
          Blessing
                Salvation:
                        Justification
                        Ongoing Sanctification
                         Future Glorification!

Almighty God's Grace Is Free
To Me ... To Thee
To Every Single Living Body!
There Is No Storage Fee

And
It Is Available All Day
Daily!

Take Almighty God's Grace
His Undying Love
His Perfect Peace
And
Dare To Live As One Set Apart ... Holy!

Jesus Christ Came Down

And

Lived As One Lowly

So That By Our Acceptance

Of

His Purchased-For-Us Grace

- That Unmerited Favor -

We May Be Raised Up, Regenerated

To The Station Glorious

Zion Beautiful

Graceful

Lofty!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Minus ... Divine Grace!?!

In The Time Of Jesus
High-Minded Men Wanted Jesus Christ's Power

But
Only To Effect Corporeal Change
To Cast Off The Roman Yoke

And
Not The Power To Sin
And
The Evil Cruel Devil To Choke!

These Onlookers Blind
Loved What Their Blind Eyes Could See
And
They Did Not Want Any Changes
To The Status Quo Of
Traditions
Customs
Theories
And
Endless Ceremonies!

If These Men With Power
Had Taken Heed To The Word
Of The Prophets Of Old
Their Hearts Would Not Have Been So Cold
And
They Would Have Been Pleased
To Be Blessed
By The One All-Powerful
And
They Would Not Have Driven Him
To The Place Of The Skull!

It's Terrible
When The Mind By Sin
Is Made Dull!

Today ...

Today ...

Today Is No Different

Because
Long Robes Still Give Long Talks
And 

Take Great Pleasure
In Great Ceremony!

They Espouse False Theories
About Which They Are Quite Loud!
They Are Enshrouded In Dark Customs
And
Lie Down ... Comfortably
On Their Useless Traditions
And
Think Naught
Talk Naught
Believe Naught Of
Divine Grace
And
Do Not Suffer The Lord Christ's Sheep And Lambs
To Know Of Or Experience 

The Precious
Sweet
And
Oh, So, Good Taste!

They Need Some Shame Bush
Because
They Won't Even Express Shame Face!

Almighty God Is Divine!
Almighty God's Grace Is Good
And
Divine Grace Is Available
To All Who Would Stand On The Table-Land
On That Peaceful Shore
To All Who Will Go Humbly To Christ Jesus
The Only One Called The Door!

Let No One Deceive You ...

The Eternal God Is Not Mocked
And
All Who Are His Know His Voice
And
Will Be In The Safe Fold Of The Obedient Flock!

Riches Are Deceitful!
Vanity Is Sin!
Self-Reliance Is A Delusion
And
Unrepentant Sinners Will Never
Ever, Ever
Glorious Heaven
Enter In!

About What, Now, Are You Thinking!?!

HAPPY SABBATH + IDOLATERS: Know God!

Do You Know That
There Is No Idolater
Who Does Not Know Who Jesus Christ Is?!

No! I Don't Know That
And Neither Do You!!

Oh, Really?!

Really!

If YOU Say So!

My King James Says Differently!

You And Your King James!

Seriously!

Show Me!

The Book Of Daniel:

Nebuchadnezzar
Was Biggest Idolater
On The Planet
In His Time
BUT
With Shadrach Meshach Abednego
In The Fiery Furnace
Nebuchadnezzar Knew
That In That Fire
And I Quote:

"...And The Fourth Man
Is Like The Son Of God!"

Nebuchadnezzar Worshipped The Works Of Man's Hands
So He Should Not Have Been Able
To Discern
Identify Recognize
State
Who Jesus Christ Is!

2:

To The Hebrew Worthies:

"Your God Is A God Of Gods
And A Lord Of Kings ...!"

AND

If You Add Matthew:

My Sheep Know My Voice!

AND

Revelation
To The Mix:

Come Out Of Her My People ...!

AND

Don't Forget The Biggie:

I Will Write My Law

On The Table Of Their Heart!

We Have Clear Proof
That All Mankind
Knows
Who Is Their God
Their Creator
AND
Redeemer!

I'll Tell You This ...

An Idolater
Is A Presumptuous Man
Who Lives In The Land Called
Willful Blindness
Content
To Worship However
Whoever
Wherever
His Lying Heart Plans
AND
Through Iniquity
Aka Planned Sin
He Offers The Living God
Scant Or
No Service!

He's A Big Man! 

In The Great Day Of Vengeance
No Man To Jesus Christ Can Say:

Fancy Meeting You Here!
Of Your Truth, I Had No Share!

BUT ...

He
In Self-Condemnation Of His Own Soul
Shall
- In Worshipful Remorse -
Say:

I Foolishly Chose Not To Believe In You!
I Wittingly Chose To Be By Self Deceived!

Truth Be Told ...

Every Man Woman
Girl Boy Child
Shall
Before The End Of Time
Know
The Name
AND
The Character Of
The God-Man Christ
AND
The God-Man's Mission
AND
Each
- No Force
No Accidental Falling Into Fiction -
Will Acknowledge
That They Ate Self-Delusion's Feast
Filled With
Satan's Lying Yeast
Because
The Way Taken
Required Not
Focused Firm Self-Denial
BUT
Did Self-Satisfaction
Self-Aggrandizement
AND
Self-Actualization
Preach!

Men Who Worship Idols
On Sin's Titties Do Leech
BECAUSE
To Do Wrong Requires No Effort
BUT
To Do Right
Requires A Changed Attitude
- Wrought By Reliance Upon Almighty God's Holy Spirit -
A Total Denial Of Self
AND
Full Adherence
To All
Everything
Every Last Iota
That The Good Shepherd Does Teach!

Doing Right Is Hard Work!

Sooo!?!
Just Do It
By God's Great Grace
Until
- With Practice Aka Constant Repetition -
It Becomes A Part Of You!

All I Know, Man
Is That I'm Going To Need
The Helpful Hand!

No Problem!
Jesus Christ Is Always Available
To Those Who Choose To Believe!

Don't Forget
Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God
AND
The Son Of Man
So
You Can Dare To Lean On Him!
He's The Strong Tower!
Depart From Sin
AND
To His Holy Hand
Dare To Cleave!
You Do Not Need Another Creature's
By Your Leave!

Honest Policy!?!

The Age-Old Adage
"Honesty Is The Best Policy!"
ISQuite Frankly
A Straight-up Lie!!

Man, From The Looks Of You
You Drank What You Should Have Anointed Yourself With
Because It Is Running Out Your Mouth
As Bare Ignorance!

Not So Fast, Slow-Poke!
He Is Right!

YOU Have Obviously Had Some Of HIS Libation!

Not At All!
Just Give Us A Hearing!

Simply Put

Honesty

ISYes!
ANDNo!

Policy
Simply Put
IS
Maybe Yes!
Maybe No!
AND
Maybe So!
Probably!
Likely!
Possibility!
To Our Understanding!
By Reason Of ...!
Our Interpretation Is ...!
As A Matter Of Convenience!
Etc. Etc. Etc.

Policy Statements Are Full Of Loop-Holes

Available Only To The Issuer

And Always Leave Room ...!

... For "Improvement!"

... For Escape!

Honesty Do Not Contain Wiggle Room!

Honesty As A Policy Has No Wings
Because
Policy Lacks Honesty
AND
Has Hidden Arrows That Sting!

If Your Honesty Needs A Policy
To Give Your Words Strength
THEN
You, My Brother
My Sister
Will See Almighty God As Your Judge
At Length!

Policy Is All About Craft
Expediency!
Convenience!

Honesty Is Not About Convenience!
Honesty Is Not A Convenience!

Honesty
- Truth -
IS!

So ...

What Do We Really Know?!

We Know That Any "Honest Policy" That Changes

According To Time
Circumstance
Personnel
Administration
Prevailing Conditions
Is A Shifting-Sand Lie!

Honesty Aka Truth
Needs No Color Nor Spin
AND
Policy Masquerading As Honesty
Will Never Get For One
The Everlasting Win!

Remember The Word Of God!

This Is An Honest - Truthful - Statement:

The Lord: The Same Yesterday

Today 

AND 

Forever!

You Should Check Out
The Ten Commandments ...!

... And The Beatitudes!
John 3:16
1 John 1:9
Psalm 23
Psalm 46
Isaiah 55:6-7

And, Then ...

For An "Honest" Comparison
Take A Look At, Oh
I Don't Know ... 

... A Policy Of Insurance!
A Credit Card Agreement
The Tax Code
Your Refrigerator Warranty
Or ...

... The Patient Information Pamphlet 

Distributed With Medicine 

When The Pharmacist "Forgets" To Remove It!

Oh, Dear ...!

When You Put It That Way ... I ... I!

Look At It Like This:

Honesty AND Policy

Can Never
- Will Never -

Cooperate
So 

By Careful Consideration
With Godly Fear
AND
With Jesus Christ As Your Example

Let Strict Honesty
Be The Guide Of Your Life!

Policy

Is

A Convenient Conveyance!

***

Honesty

Is

Precious

Soul-Saving Cargo!

What Does YOUR Life Say

About How YOU Are Living?!

Muscle Memory + PRAYER: I Give You, Lord, My Deceitful Heart!

I Had Lost My Way!

I Applied My Tongue To Cussing
AND
I Became A Curse Bird!

I Applied My Eye To Spying
AND
Became a Tatler:

Would You Like To Hear A Lil' Word?!

I Ran Around
Getting Into Other Men's Matter
Enjoying The Appellation
"Tha' Is De Expert!"
BUT
When The Tables Were Turned On Me
I Ran And Sat Down Righteously
In The Front Pew Of De People Church!

As Is To Be Expected ...

Good Behavior In Me
Di'n Long Last
For Soon
I Was In De Know
In Evahbody Bidness
AND SOON ENOUGH
There Was Bacchanal
For My Flighty Fiery Tongue
Through The Good Offices Of My Eye
Led To A Sold Out Show!

I Had Pledged To Reform!
By Cold Turkey, I Had Quit
BUT

Things In De People Church
Had Been Too Delicious
AND
Before Old Tom ... Cat
Could Lick He Split Ear
I Was In Foremost Lady Cora House
Hauled Up In She Easy Chair!

She Is Such A Dear!

Truth Be Told ...

Things Did Not Work Out
As I Assumed They Should
Because
Cora Was Not Called The Foremost Lady For Nothing
For
I Was Taught a Lesson
That I Will Never Forget
When She Turned The Rough-Table 'Pon Me:

• Do Unto Others
• Think Before You Speak
• Give And It Will Come Back To You Just Not In The Way You Expect 
• Plant Indian Corn: Guinea Corn You Will Not Reap, And
• Preach The Gospel But Not Through Lying Teeth
• What One Practices Is What One Performs
• When One Walks In Broken Shoes One Will Get Corns

Lady Cora Is An Old School Teacher

AND

Her Lecture Was ... Well

You Judge:

When One Practices Folly

Foolish Is What One Becomes
AND
Giving The Red R A G In Your Mouth Gossiping Muscles
Marks One As Just Plain Dumb!

Foolish Gossip Is Double Jeopardy!
Living As A Bone Carrier
Is Simply Foolhardy!
You've Got A Fat Tongue
AND

A Permanent Squint In Your Eye
AND

Your Heart Is Just Plain Rotten!
Don't You Know That Gossipers 

To Almighty God's Heaven Won't Fly?!

After That Oh, So, Calmly Delivered Tongue-Lashing

You Should Have Heard My 

PRAYER:

Dear Lord, 

I Retire From

And

Repent My Participation In

The Gossip Game

And

I Willingly Give To You

My Deceitful Heart

My Itchy Ears

My Lying Eyes

My Seared Conscience

My Fiery Tongue

And

Beseech You

In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

To Keep My Feet

On The Path Of Peace

And

Off Of Satan's Oiled Easy Street!

Help Me, Please

To Mind My Own Business

- The Business Of The Living God

And

Jesus Christ's Soon Return -

So That

In The Great Day Of Vengeance

- Saved As One Enduringly Faithful

By Your Now Available Grace -

I Shall Ascend To The Great Reward!

I Love You, Lord!

Remember Me!

AMEN.

BYPASSING WISDOM: The Stench Of Own-Way!

Defy Logic
AND
Bypass Wisdom
Are Brethren
And Not Cousins
Once Removed!

Defy Logic
AND
Bypass Wisdom
Love! Love! Love!
In Club Wrongdoing
To Groove

They Have A Dastardly Mandate:

Flex Your Muscles
Initiate A Date
AND
Make A Neophyte
To The Things Of Darkness
- New Found -
Relate!

They Know All The Good Rocks
They Know All The Penny Holes
They Know How To Adroitly Vascillate

Who Does The World's Greatest Hit Reel 

Narrate!
They Have Goals!

I Must Here Tell You That ...

Take-No-Prisoners

For

Bounders!

These Broke Merchants
Don't Care
Whom They Break Down!
They Are Bre'k-Down
Tek-Down Merchants
With Their Bulbous Hound-Dog Noses
Practically Stitched To The Damp Ground
Seeking

Scenting
The Sweat Of The One
Stinking Of The Essence Of Own-Way
The Stench Of The One
Who Acts As Though
The Living God Cares Not
When Where How
Finite Man

Works Rests And Plays!

Do Not Be Deceived
When A Wink Sails At You! 

Don't Be Deceived
When A Crooked Smile
Deftly Tries To Tickle You! 

Don't Be Deceived
When Dancing Words
Wind Around Your Ears
AND
Don't! Don't!
Don't Be Deceived
When Known Illogic 

Becomes Apparently Logical
AND
Wisdom Outside The Realm Of Man
Is Presented To You
As Corned Beef In A Sardine Can!
It's All Flim-Flam!
Understand?!

Dogs Bark!
Ducks Quack!
Turkeys Gobble
AND
Whirly Gigs Wobble
AND
When You See Chickens
In Wedding Attire
Walking Down The Church Aisle
- Wing In Wing -
Know Of A Surety
Satan Is Doing What He Does Best
AND
That Is
To Men, Fallen
Lie
Seeking To Make Them Hurt
AND
In Time ... Cry!
In This
He Is Not Shy!

Bypass Defy

The Spirit Of Almighty God Is Wisdom
