Confess Your Sins To Who!?!

 

James 5:16 Clearly, Plainly, Unambiguously Says To Us Readers

- Competent Or Otherwise - 

To Confess Our Faults One To Another 

But

Lo And Behold

We Are Swallowing Wicked Men's Commands

- As Dictated By Satan - 

To Confess Our Sins One To Another! 

Lord, Have Mercy! 

Beloved, 

Sin Is The Transgression Of Almighty God's Laws 

So, Pray Tell

Why Would You Be Confessing Your Sins To A Man, A Woman

A Created Being!?! 

Did They Die For You!?! 

Are They Faithful And Just To Forgive You Of Your Sin 

And 

Able To Cleanse You From All Unrighteousness!?! 

Dear Ones, 

It Is Time To Get Off Gullible-Man Bus 

And 

Turn To The Wisdom Of The Only Wise God 

And 

Do Exactly What He Commands! 

Go To The Father In The Name Of The Son Who, Alone, Saves! 

Brethren, 

Those Who Change The Word Of The Lord 

Are Agents Of The Devil Who Desire To Know Your Secrets 

So That They May Hold Them Over Your Head 

And 

Bend You To Their Will ... And

For Their Profit! 

The Lord Jesus Christ Calls Us To Confess Our Sin 

For Our Own Personal Purification, Peace, And Profit ... Prosperity! 

We Are To Have Faith In Jesus 

And 

Offer Our Repentance To The Father! 

When You Do The Man-Command And Confess Sin To A Man

To Whom Are You Offering Your Repentance!?! 

Are You Even Repentant!?! 

A Glove Without A Hand In It 

Is Just Fabric With A Fancy Name! 

Confessing Sin To A Sinner 

Is 

Selling Out The Savior 

And 

Elevating A Living Dead Man 

Whose Input Can't Even Rent You A Look-See Into Glory! 

Don't Waste Your Time! 

Stick With The Lord Of Life Who Gives Salvation 

Which Saves In The Day Of Strife! 

Men Are Profiteers! 

Jesus Christ Is Profitable! 

The Holy Hand Of Help Holding Healing Marks The Difference! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Prayer: Lord, I Am Yours Three Times!

 

PRAYER:

Lord, 

I Am Yours Three Times

And My Heart Is Made Glad!

I Am Blessed And I Know It!

I Am Yours Because You Said That When I Pray

That I Should Say:

"Our Father Which Art In Heaven!" 

I Am Your Child!

I Am Yours Because You Said

"Trust In The Lord With All Your Strength

And Lean Not On Your Own Understanding ...!

 I Am An Eager Student In The School Of Jesus!

I Am Yours Because You Asked:

"Whom Shall I Send And Who Will Go For Us!?!"

I Am Your Willing Servant Ready For Duty

And Awaiting Your Equipping For Service!

I Am Yours Because I Know That

You Are The Creator God Who Made Me In Your Own Image

After Your Own Likeness!

 I Am Yours Because You Sent Your Only Son

Jesus Christ The Lord Of Life

To Die The Death Of The Accursed

So That I May Be Redeemed From Sin

To Return To Your House, My Father's House

Cleansed, Accepted, Made Incorruptible

And Immortalized

To Live The Life Of The Eternally Blessed

I Am Yours Because I Cried:

"Oh, Wretched Man That I Am!

Who Shall Deliver Me From The Body Of This Death!?!"

And You Answered And Said:

"Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor And Are Heavy Laden

And I Will Give You Rest!

I Am The Way, The Truth, And The Life!"

I Am A Sinner By Nature And By Long Practice

And Knowing That My Life Condemned Me To Death

I Cried Unto You

And You Brought Me Up To Your Level

As I Prayed For Deliverance

And You Ever So Gently Said By The Messenger: 

"If We Confess Our Sin

He Is Faithful And Just To Forgive Us Our Sin

And To Cleanse Us From All Unrighteousness!" 

I Humbly Confessed And You Drew Me To Your Side! 

I Started To Cry And In You, I Did Humbly Confide!

Lord,

There Are No Secrets Between Us!

All That I Need To Know, And Do

You Teach Me Day By Day!

All The Work Necessary To Be Performed

I Strive And, By Grace, Do It Willingly:

New-Day Faith Is Pay! 

By Your Living Word

To The Throne Of Grace I, Moment By Moment, Go

Because I Do Not Choose To Know Life

As The Sinning World Knows It!

I Choose To Use The Gifts You Have Given To Me

And My Free Choice, My Free Will, I Give To You, My King

My Father, My Lord, My God, My Savior, And My Friend

Who Has Chosen To Love And Keep Me In Your Holy Care

So That I May Have The Record Clear

The Character Without Blemish

And The Lot With No Lease

Because You, Being Ever Kind

Have Made Me Your Responsibility!

Soon, Very Soon

My Faithful Endurance

Shall See Me Crossing The Separating Line

So That I Shall Know As I Am Known

And See As I Am Seen

And I Shall Forever Behold Your Face

The Face Of My Beloved, My God Holy Divine!

You Are The Bread Of Life!

You Are The Water Of Life!

You Are The Oil Of Gladness!

You Are Giving Me Beauty For Ashes

So, Please, I Beseech You

Pour Out Of Your Holy Spirit Into This Jar Of Clay

Because You Are My All And All

And I Worship You!

I Love You

And I Sing Your Praises

And I Pray All These Things In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

The Dear Name Blessed Forever!

Please Come For Us Soon!

AMEN!

There Is No Death In Righteousness!

The Way Is Jesus Christ: 

He Is The One Righteous! 

The Pathway Is That Marked By Jesus Christ Himself! 

The Pathway Of Righteousness 

Is 

That Path For One's Feet 

Where It Is Impossible For One To Go Astray 

When One Moment-By-Moment Chooses 

To Faithfully Follow In The Footsteps Of Our Savior 

Doing What He Did

Speaking As He Spoke

Loving As He Loves

And 

Choosing To Let Your Conscience 

As Directed By The Holy Spirit Who Leads One Into All Truth 

Be The Sole Guide For Your Life In This Vale Of Tears! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Expect To Hear The Still Small Voice Of God 

In The Whirlwind

In The Earthquake

In The Fire

Or In The Multitudinous Voices Of The Self-Serving Sort! 

Dear Ones, 

When We Long For The Sights And Sounds Of 

Those Seeking Distraction From Sorry Self And Sordid Sin

The Clamor They Make Gives One The Impression That All Is Well! 

These Dear Souls

Purchased At Infinite Price With The Innocent Blood

Find No Peace In Quietness 

And As Such

See No Point To Being Still! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Learn As King Solomon Learnt That 

A Life Lived By The Senses 

Is 

No Life At All 

But 

Vanity And A Vexation Of One's Spirit! 

Learn From The Prophet Elijah That 

It Is In The Stillness That 

We Will Hear The Lord  Speak! 

There Is No Life In Unrighteousness

And

There Is No Death In Righteousness! 

The Life Lived For Christ Has No End! 

Let's Live For King Jesus! 

Peace!

We Have The Word Of The God Who Is The Truth!

Ask In Saving Faith 

And 

It Shall Be Given! 

Seek With Enduring Faith 

And 

It Will Be Found! 

Knock On The Door In Child-Like Trust Aka Unfailing Faith 

And 

It Shall Surely Be Opened Unto You! 

Beloved, 

Would You Give Up Promised, Sure And Secure 

But

Presently Unseen Everlasting Riches And The Weight Of Glory Divine 

For Seen And Unsecure, Unprofitable Riches Of Unrighteousness 

Because Of 

Your Unwarranted Envy Of Those Who Are Rich, Rude, Ruthless

Ungovernable

Unafraid Of The Frowning Judge And The Wrath To Come

And 

Unshamed Of Their Ungodly Deeds 

Which Grant Them The Life Of Ease And Excess Because Of Access!?! 

Brethren, Beloved 

We Have The Word Of Him Who Is The Truth 

Who Cannot Lie 

And

Did Not Lie To Save His Own Skin 

But

Told The Truth To Save Our Lives 

And 

Lost His Own! 

We Have A Guarantee, In Blood, Of A Life Of Bliss

Beauty, Benefits, And Brotherhood 

If

We Will Choose To Believe It 

And

Hold The Given Promise In Our Hearts 

As We Hold Our Lord Jesus Christ's Unchanging Hand! 

Think, Dear Ones! 

No Earthly Portion Or Profit Or Peace Is Everlasting! 

When We Choose, By Faith, To Make Jesus Our Choice

Our Life In Time ... Though Often Bitter

Is 

Made Better, Sweeter

Because 

The Best Of Almighty God's Great Gifts To Us 

Is 

Just Up Ahead, Around Bend, And Across The River! 

We, With Patient Faith, Rest In Peace In The Gospel Truth

The Living Truth

So Choose To Trust In

And 

Look Up To Almighty God To Go Up ... To Glory! 

Peace! 

HEAVENLY WARNINGS: Scornful Dogs Eat Dirty Pudding!

No Matter What Is Happening In Your Life 

Never, Ever, Stoop So Low 

As To Walk Anywhere 

On The Advice Of The Known Ungodly! 

Do Not Ever Be Caught Standing On The Streets With 

Or Lounging In The Hidey-Holes Of Known Sinners

And 

In The Name Of The Living God

Do  Not Be Found In The Comfy Chairs Of 

Those Who Are Scornful Of Goodness, Righteousness

Kindness, Fairness 

And 

Faithfulness

And

Never Forget That 

Scornful Dogs Always Eat Dirty Pudding! 

Beloved, 

Every Gift That The Lord Of Glory ... In Mercy ... Gives To Us 

Is 

For Our Blessing 

And

Every Warning That The Lord Of Life Issues To Us 

Is 

For Our Education

Enlightenment 

And 

Upliftment! 

The First Division Of The Book Of The Psalms 

Is 

Just Such A Treasure 

And 

We Would All Do Well To Commit It To Memory 

As It Clearly States Plainly 

The Lot

The Final Condition

The Status

The Standing Of Both The Righteous And The Wicked! 

King Solomon ... King David's Son

Later Went On To Warn Us 

To Neither Be Overly Wicked 

And

Foolish 

And 

Die Before Our Time 

Or 

Be Overly Righteous 

And 

Overly Wise 

And 

Destroy Ourselves!

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

Boundaries Are Marked As Warnings 

And

Warnings Are Issued To Declare Boundaries! 

Dare To Be Different 

And 

Choose To Walk Wisely In The Will Of Almighty God

As The Good Lord Personally And Lovingly Leads! 

Justice, Judgment, Mercy, Truth: 

Hold Them Close: 

Don't Be Aloof! 

Peace!

NEED Versus WANT: Christ And Chocolate

 

If We Don't Call Upon The Lord By Praying

He Cannot Answer Us! 

If We Do Not Ask For Forgiveness For Known Sin By Confession 

And

Repentance

The Lord ... God Almighty ... Cannot Forgive Us Our Sins 

And 

Cleanse Us From All Of Our Known Acts Of Unrighteousness! 

The Lord Instructs Us To Ask Of Him 

To Receive From Him: 

Don't Be Proud And Foolish! 

Beloved, 

Today Is The Day Of Salvation 

And

Salvation Is For Us Who Know 

And 

Readily Acknowledge That 

We Are Sinners Needing Saving: 

Never Mix Up Your Needs For Your Wants! 

Know The Right ...

We Need Christ! 

We Want Chocolate! 

We Need Faith And Forgiveness! 

We Want Fame And Fortune! 

We Need To Speak Truth And Exhibit Trust! 

We Want Toys And Trinkets! 

Brethren, Beloved, 

The Lord Desires Us To Come Home To Him

 By Walking In The Light 

And 

Doing The Good 

And  

The Right

Because

It Is Right! 

Let Us, Therefore, Rejoice That Our Jesus Christ 

Is 

King Forever 

And 

Dare To Trust The Living Word 

And 

Fall Upon The Mercy That Is Offered To Us Free 

And 

Bask In The Grace, Freely Given, That 

Is 

Available, Sufficient 

And 

Enough ... Today

For All Of Our Needs! 

Let's Take All That Concerns Us To Our Blessed Lord Jesus

In Heartfelt Prayer

In Faith

For Love 

With Hope:

Remember To Give Him Your Thanks And Praise As Well! 

Peace

Is Not

A Merchantable Commodity!

Peace

Is

The Free Gift

Known Freely-Given To Us

By

Shiloh, The Prince Of Peace

The Light Of The World

The Certain Hope

Of

Every Man, Woman And Child!

Enough Sufficient And Then Some ... With Prayer

The Conversation ...
That Conversation
Was Causing Serious Problems
For All Its Participants
Because
Every Time A Person
Waxed Emphatic
A Voice Was Heard
Denying The Truth Of The Person's Word!

Things Were In Turmoil!

I'll Give You An Example ...

Horace Said:
I Trust God!Voice Said:
Not Enough!
When It Is Convenient!

Heather Said:
I Walk With The Lord!Voice Said:
Not Always!
When It Is Comfortable!

Stephanie Said:
I Believe God's Word!Voice Said:
Not Enough!

When It Is Convenient!
When It Is In Compatible Company!

Nola Said:
I Thank God For His Grace!
Voice Asked:
Not Always!

Why Aren't You Walking In It?

Sanjeev Said:
I Live For The Lord!Voice Asked:

Not Always!

Who Knows It?
Where Is Your Light?

Phenola Said:
I Witness For The Lord!Voice Asked:

Not Always!
With Whose Words?
With What Spirit?

You Will Be Surprised
To Know
That In The Conversation ...
That Conversation
The Participants Were
Only One
Plus
A Conscience
- Compliments Of The Holy Spirit -
Which Was
Which Is

Often Denied!

The Bible AsksAND

Speaks:

AND
I Ask:

Who Better
To Call Us Plain Liars
Than The Conscience
Attached To Us
By God's Cord?!

For Truth's Sake

I Will Accuse My Self
In The Conversation ... 

My Conversation
AND SAY:

I Don't Love God ... Enough!
AND
I Don't Trust God ... Enough!OR
Walk With Him Close ... Enough!AND
I Don't Believe In God ...Enough!

AND

Let Him Lead Me ... Enough!AND

Then I Will Exclaim 

With Much Sorrow
That

I Am Crying Out To God In ...

PRAYER:

Oh, Lord

Grant Me

Of

Love Hope

Faith Truth 

Trust

And

Belief

Enough

Sufficient And Then Some

So That I Do Not End Up With

None

For

I Desire To Walk

And Live For

And With You

And Without These

I Know That I Cannot

A Victorious Race Run!

Grant Me, Lord

The Redeemed Soul's Sense

To Get Out Of Sin's Torrential Rain

Using The Umbrella Of Jesus Christ's Faith

And

Grant Me The Contrite Heart's Willingness

To Let You Break

- With Finality -

Old Besetting Sin's Chain!

Father,

Grant The Courage

To Speak Your Truth

Without Being Vain

And

Please, Lord

Help Me

Neither In Thought

Word Or Deed

Your Holy Name

To Profane!

Lord, 

Let Me Not Shine The Black Light

Of That Other Jesus!

Let Me Not Spread

The Delusional Gospel

Of That Other Word

That Is Widely Being Heard

But

Let Me Be A Faithful Witness

To The Living Gospel

Of Christ The King's Truth

And

Let Me Do It Lovingly

By Holy Faith

And In

And With 

The Same Incorruptible Truth!

Let My Light So Shine

That Men May See

Christ Jesus

Living In Me!

Help Me To Live Such A Life

As Is Called Godly!

Let Me Plant Seeds

That Will Become A Harvestable Crop

To Provide Wheat

For The Holy God's Garner

And

Lord, Please

Let It Be A Lot!

Forgive, Lord

And

Cleanse Me From All Unrighteousness!

I Love You, Lord

And

In Jesus' Name I Plead!

AMEN.

Guard Your Tongue!

Speech 
Is A Talent!
A Gift!
A Blessing!
A Curse!
Speech Is A Great Power
Used For Either
The Devil
Or For
The Heavenly Lord!

Speech Is Split
Into Two Categories
Righteousness
AND
Unrighteousness
AND
Speech
Spoken As The Words Of The Lord
Can Cause Sorrow For Sin
AND
Also Cause The Now-Repentant One
Hence Forth To Walk In Righteousness
Giving Up Living In Sleaze!

The Devil Has His Speechifiers
Who Work With Ill Effect
Taking Great Pleasure
In Causing Gross Destruction
Whilst Being Hopeful 
Of Digging Forever-Graves
For Those Who 
Are Almighty God's Blessed Elect!
It Can't Happen!

Nevertheless ...

Please Keep
Your Mind
AND
Your Mouth
Out Of The Devil's Darkly Dismal Domain
AND
Plead With Christ Jesus
To Refine You
So That The Devil's Peculiars
Can Not You Enchain!

A Soft Answer
Turns Away Wrath!
A Word Of Love 
AND
Kindness
Can Warm
Against The Coldest Draft!
A Kind Word Of Help
Can The Grandest Load Half
AND
The Word Of The Lord
Fitly Spoken
Can
- To Struggling Man -
Become
A Sturdy Walking Staff!

When You Brush Your Teeth
Brush Your Own Tongue
Removing The Gross Debris Of Yesterday
AND
Gargle With A Living Song Of
The Father In Heaven
The Son Who For Love Died  - Yet Lives
The Holy Spirit Comforter
AND
The Guardian Angel
Influencers For Good
AND
Sing Of The Rock Of Ages
Who
In The Breach For Us
Stood!

Speak Of Love!
AND
Sing Of Love!
For
Love Is The Goal!
AND
Please Don't Let A Bad Word
Cause You
To Sin Against Your Own Soul!

Spit Into The Gutter The Disgusting!
Loft Into The Air God's Grace!
Lift Your Voice In Thanksgiving
AND
For The Blessings Of Heaven
Grandly Cheer!

STSHSESTSOSNSGSUSES!

PRAYER: Lord, We Believe Your Word!

Oh, Lord

Great And Glorious

We Come Before You

Hearts Heavy

At The Plight Of Our Nation's People!

Lord, What Is To Become

Of This Prodigal People

Who Relish A Diet Of Pig Swill

And Reject The Lush Banquet

Arrayed On Zion's Hill;

Who Studiously Walk By Blind Sight;

Who Consider The Faith Of Jesus A Pox And A Blight;

Who Wallow In Flights Of Fantasy;

Who Enjoy Playing Pat-A-Cake

In The Whispy Web Of The Fabled Spider Anansi;

Who Thrill At The Experiencing Of The Mind-numbing Pill

And Laugh Uproariously

At All That Is Worthy A Toilet To Fill;

Who Play With The Fraud

And Believe Themselves To Be God;

And Who Consider The Confessed Children Of The Living God

To Be Kin To Demon Frogs?

Lord, Have Mercy Upon Them In Their Distress!

Oh, Lord

We Who Love And Believe In Your Beloved Son

Are Denigrated

And Denied

And Despised

And Abused

And Accused

Because:

We Don't Indulge In Thrills And Spills For Fun;

We Refuse To Play Russian Roulette With The Known Loaded Gun;

We Acknowledge That Sin Has No Degrees

No Matter Its Color

And That It Separates Us From The Holy God

We Daily Seek To Please;

We Know That An Elevating Love Of Self Is No Green Grass

And That It Puts Us In The Position

Of Requiring Your Sending Unto Us A Balaam's Talking Ass;

We Recognize That Self-Medication

Puts Us Up High On A Rotten Tree Limb;

We Refuse To Live To Experience Fleeting Thrills That Will Ultimately Kill;

We Choose To Accept And Know The Creator God Who Lives

Who Loves Us And Who Causes Us To Grow;

And Because

We Choose To Live By The Intangible Faith Of Jesus Christ The King

And Sing Praises To Him As We Look With Great Hope 

For The Sky Break Heralding His Returning!

Father,

Give Unto Us Strength For Our Journey

And Courage For The Way We Must Walk

Even In The Face Of Gross Opposition

To Humbly Keep The Holy Faith

To Be Able To Disagree

And Not Be Disagreeable

As We Share The Truths Of Heavenly Light

And Freely Available Salvation Unto Eternal Life!

Let Not The Spirit Of Fear Overcome Us!

Father,

Pity Us By Your Mercy

Comfort Us With Your Grace

And Let The Indwelling Holy Spirit

Direct Correct And Chide Us

And The Holy Angels Protect Us

Until The Day When In This Fleeting Life

We Have No More A Place!

Oh, Father,

Let Our Love For You Be Not Fair Weather

Neither Let It Be Wasted On The Accursed Other!

Bless Our Faith With Holy Sight

Unto The Day When There Shall Be

No More Night!

And, Lord

In That Day Of The Trumpet Of God

Call Us Forth From Death

Unto Eternal Life

For We Believe Your Holy Promises

And We Trust You To Honor Your Promise

To Get Us Home Safely

Through Jacob's Time Of Trouble

The Coming Prophesied Strife!

Oh, Lord

We Love You Indeed

And In The Name Of Jesus Christ The Righteous

With These Petitions We Plead.

Oh, Lord, Hear!

Oh, Lord, Do For Us What Only The Holy God Can Do!

AMEN.

Oh, That Men Would Praise

The Eternal God Of Love

The Giver Of True Life!
