VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Sharp Turn Around!

One-Eighty And Three-Sixty Were Running Through The Town! 

Repentance Took One-Eighty And

Three-Sixty Valiantly Tried To Get Repentance 

To Do A Hard Rebound!

Three-Sixty Loved Anything Circular!

He Loved Anything Fat And Round

But 

He Sincerely Hated That One-Eighty 

Who Had A Knack For Making All Sinners With Repentance

Do A Sharp Turn-Around! 

Three-Sixty Loved The Status Quo! 

He Loved No Need To Change! 

He Worked For Beelzebub, That Dragon

Who Loved To Keep Born Sinners In Locked And Heavy Chains! 

You May Well Ask Yourself The Question:

One-Eighty Or Three-Sixty, Who Cares!?! 

So Let Me Tell Me You What Love-Dove Peace Told Me 

And 

You May Decide If It Does Anything Explain! 

Sinners Are By Nature Born

But When They Seek And Find The Lord Christ 

They Cannot Willing-Sinners Remain! 

Encountering Christ Convicts Of Sin 

And Causes The Desire To Change! 

That Change Is Called Repentance, My Friend, 

Which Means That One Must Wheel And Come Again! 

Repentance Is A You-Turn Even On The Crooked Road Straight! 

A You-Turn Is A One-Eighty, You See

But 

Beelzebub Has People Convinced That 

Repentance Is A Full Three-Sixty! 

Lord, Have 'is Mercy! 

I U-sed To Think That The Three-Sixty Was The Deal 

But I Is Now Understand That 

That Three-Sixty Does Lef' Me In The Round-About Land 

Without The Off-Ramp! 

Bingo, Beloved! 

You Done Got De Thing! 

Doing That Three-Sixty 

Does Left We With De Bull-Cow Brass Nose Ring 

With Beelzebub, That Satan, That Deceiver, Bearing The Hook 

And Dragging We Helter Skelter 

As He Waiting Fuh We Goose To Get Cooked! 

You Speak Truth, My Friend! 

I Know The Real Friend 

Who Encourages Us To Embrace Real Repentance 

So That We May Rightfully Enter The House Of 

The Dear One Who Was Born To Be The Everlasting King! 

His Name Is Truth! 

His Way Is Peace! 

He Gives Wisdom And Understanding

And 

As Regards Our Shackles

It Is He Who Does Our Chains And Locks Release! 

I Like That One-Eighty Repentance! 

Three-Sixty Is Free To Go To Hell! 

I Will Trust The Truth That Matters 

And Depart From The Lies That Splatter! 

The Final Word ... Perfect Love Gives Free Grace 

But 

Strict Justice Terminates Available Mercy! 

Please Think Of These In Real-World Terms

And 

You Will Not Your Pick For Heaven 

Carelessly, Callously, Spurn! 

Peace! 

Stop Chasing Perfection Of The Man-Made Sort!

 

It Must Be Said: 

We Really Need To Stop Chasing Perfection Of The Man-Made Sort 

Pleasure Derived By Ungodly Means

And 

Prominence To Be Seen And Heard And Cooed Over

And 

Start Studiously Seeking The Savior 

Who Sanctifies Aka Sets Us Apart

And 

Seals And Secures Us To Be Able To Stand Before Him 

In The Heavenly Sanctuary! 

There Is No Profit In Pride! 

Man's Approval Isn't The Same As The Lord's 

And

Man's Arm Is A Poor Weapon In Battle! 

Beloved, 

Self-Serving Sinners May Become Working Saints 

And 

Be Saved 

But

Serving Saints Who Again Become Willing Sinners 

Seeking All-About-Me Success And Temporal Security 

Will Assuredly Be Damned! 

Dear Ones, 

Anyone May Make A Mistake 

But 

When A Mistake Becomes A Deliberate 

And 

Turns Into A Way Of Life

That Is When It Shall Be Said: 

"Christian, We Have A Problem!" 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Do Not Allow The Prideful Idea Of Self-Made 

To Become Your Ideal 

And 

Turn You Into A Cast-Off Cast-Away From The City Of God! 

Pretty Isn't Always Beautiful

Pleasure Isn't Always Sweet

And 

Prominence Isn't Ever Perfection!

Every Man After The Eternal God Should Avidly Seek! 

Our Perfection Comes From Jesus Christ The Lord, Our King! 

Peace!

OUR DEBT IS PAID: Know The LORD Jesus Christ!

Instead Of Being Sold-Out To Sin

We Need To Seriously Seek-Out Our Savior! 

We Need To Make A Donation Of All Known Sin 

-  Inherited, Cultivated, Or That Sin That So Easily Besets Us - 

To Our Blessed Lord Jesus Who Already Paid For It 

So That We No Longer Need To Be Burdened With It! 

We Seriously Need To Keep Ourselves Unspotted By The World 

And 

Not Conformed To Its Destructive And Spiritually-Defiling Ways 

And, Instead

Be Transformed By The Renewing Of Our Minds 

By Searching The Words Of Life 

As We Dig For Its Hidden Treasure! 

We Definitely Need To Discard All Bad Habits 

Since Habits Build Character 

And 

Our Character Determines Our Destiny

Our Final Destination! 

Most Of All, Dear Ones, 

Let Us Discard Self Who Loves To Have The Preeminence 

Aka The Lead In Our Lives

And 

Desires To Inhabit The Throne That Is Our Heart 

Which Should Be Occupied Only By Our Kind King Jesus! 

Let Us Remember That

Self Is A Willing Sinner 

Who Indulges Unseemly Thoughts 

Which Encourage Unkind Words 

Which Stimulate Unholy Deeds 

Which Seed An Ungodly Character 

Which Sends Us To An Unprofitable Destination 

Aka Outer Darkness From Which There Is No Return! 

Dare To Declutter Your Life: 

Let The Word Dwell In You Richly! 

Jesus Christ Is Knocking: 

Open The Door! 

Peace! 

Tolerating Sin Interferes With Soul Salvation

Old Wisdom:

If Someone Can't Give You A Biscuit

Don't Let Them

Take Bread Out Of Your Mouth! 

Question! 

How Is It That Known Evil-Doers

Be They Priestly, Political

Entertainers, Sportsmen

Financiers And The Like

Are Permitted To Maintain 

And 

Broadcast 

And

Promote Their "Deeply Held" Wicked

Blasphemous

Idolatrous Beliefs And Practices 

But

Devoted-To-Christ Christians 

Are Castigated, Excoriated, Pilloried

Punished And Canceled 

For Telling The World And His Brother That 

Jesus Christ The King Saves 

And

That He Loves Us All ... Sinner And Saint

To Death And Back 

And

On Up To Glory!?! 

If We Christians Are Being "Made" To Accept 

And 

Tolerate Willing Sinners' Embracing Their Pet Sins

Why Aren't The Wrong-Doers Satisfied To Leave Us Alone 

To Embrace Our Lord Christ 

And

Enjoy Our Personal Serving Of His Free-To-All Salvation 

And

Not Attempt To Force Us To Give Up Our Saving Faith 

And 

Sure Salvation!?! 

Is It Because Clean Living Accuses Them!?! 

Beloved, 

Good Accuses Evil 

Because 

Evil Knows It Is Not, Nor Can Ever Be, Good! 

When Good No Longer Offends Evil

The Day Of Goodness Ceases 

And

All Hope For Help And Healing Is Lost! 

Please Be True To The Lord Christ

And

Do Not Allow Anyone

Poor, Powerful

Fat, Foolish

Wise, Weak

Thin Or Trifling 

To Turn You Away From The Light That 

Leads To Life Everlasting! 

Dare To Stand Firm: 

Saving Faith Can't Fail! 

Only Jesus Christ ... The Creator ... Saves! 

Remember, Remember 

Don't Ever Forget ... 

Only Jesus Christ Can Give To Mankind

The Non-Perishable Bread ... Of Life! 

Peace!

Moths And Cockroaches

Look In The Mirror!
    Look At Your Self!
        Look At Your Life!
Now I Ask You Quite Plain: 

Who Are You!?!

Who Are You Planning To Be!?!

Is Your Practice

Following The Master's Plan!?!

Are You A Child Of The Day!?!

Who Will You Be

On The Day That Has No Night!?!

When The Lord Christ Shall Come
There Will Only Be Two Types Of Persons On This Planet: 
Condemned Unbelieving Cockroaches 
And
Commended Believing Moths! 

Jesus Christ Is The Light Of Life
The Light Of The World 
And
The Enduring Faithful
The Saints Of God And Christ 
- The Moths Who Love And Gravitate Towards Light -
Will Ascend To His Glorious Side! 

By Contrast
Those Willing Sinners Who, Like Cockroaches, Despise Light
And 
Especially Adore The Darkness 
Because 
The Darkness Covers Up Their Nefarious Deeds
Will Run Away From The Lord To The Rocks And Hills 
Pleading For Shelter 
To Hide Them From His Disclosing-Deeds Light: 
It Ain't Gonna Work! 

Beloved, 

We Must Be Born Again! 
We Must Put Away  All 
Habits
Inclination
Deeds
Desires
Entanglements
And 
Nocturnal Practices 
That Shall Surely Cause The Great King To Say To Us:

"Depart From Me! 

I Never Knew You!" 

Beloved, 

Be Sure Of This One Thing: 
What Is Done In The Darkness Will Come To Light! 

All Hidden Sins Will Be Found Out
So, Please, I Beseech Us All
Stop Rubbing Cockroach Legs In The Darkness 
And
Choose To Flutter A Moth's Wings In The Light Of Jesus Christ 
Who Is Soon Coming For His Faithful Children! 

No Jesus: No Peace!

Know Jesus: Know Peace!
