God's Book Of Remembrance




Oh,  Wicked Man
Why Don't You Fear Almighty God?
He Is Your Creator!

Why Won't You Honor God?
He Is The Great I Am!

Why Won't You Bless God?
He Is The True Provider
AND
He Holds Your Days And Years
In The Palm Of His Holy Hand!

Oh, Wicked Man
How Long Do You Believe
You Can Exercise Power Without Limit?
How Long Do You Believe
You Can Indulge In Vice Without Restraint?

Even Though You Refuse To Acknowledge
That There Is God Almighty In The Heavens
You May Rest Assured
That He Has In His Keeping
Your Presumptuous Vile Record!

God's Book Of Remembrance
Holds Records 
Of Each Life's Doings
AND
Priest
Pope
Pastor
President
Prime Minister
Peasant
Rich
Poor
Have
Have Not
Lofty
Lowly
Queen 
King
ALL 
Shall Stand Before God's Judgment Seat
To Give An Accounting
Of Each Life's Work
AND
To Receive Its Justly Earned Reward!

Elevating Oneself
To The Post Position of "God"
Will Never Denigrate The Eternal God 
To The Lowering Standard Of Fallen Man
AND
Listening
Following
AND
Obeying The Voice
Of Him-Whose-Power-Is-Putrid
Will Not Unseat Almighty God
Nor Turn Him Into Offal
At Awful Man's Command Or Tweet!

Oh, Wicked Man
Repent Of Your Ways
For
The Book Of Remembrance Has An Eraser
Willing To Erase
All Sins Against God
For Which Confessing Men Repent!

Please Don't Be Like Lucifer
Now Satan Of Dread Fame
Committed 
AND
Fixed
In Rebellion!
Go To
The Father God
AND
At His Feet
Humbly Repent!

Jesus Christ 
Will Lift You Up
With Hands Scarred
By The Price Of Our Salvation
AND
Hold You To A Heart
Once Broken To Gain Your Return
Clean
At The Eternal Father's Eternal Throne!
Please Don't Cast Away Your Hope!

In God
All Is Good
AND
Eternal
AND
Hope Is Made Real
If Faith In God 
Does Not Fail!

Trust In The Living God
Not The Plaster Saint
Not The Wood Nymph
Nor 
The Other Useless Manufacturings
Of Man's Hands
Those Treasured Idols 
Of Precious Stone 
Gold
Bronze
AND
Silver!

Please Stop Laying Up Treasure 
Which Will Curse You In The Day
When
Jesus Christ Himself 
As Conquering King
- The Judge Of All Flesh -
Shall Appear!

I Beseech You, Brethren
Let Us Lay Up For Ourselves
Treasures In Heaven
Which We Will Receive In The Holy Celebration
AND
Please Resign 
From The Crew Whose End Is Death
Eternal Death
Destroyed
With No Hope
Ever
Of Being By Jesus Christ
Renewed!




It Is Better 
To Bend Now
Worshiping The Living God
Than 
To Burn Later
Because Of Rebellion!

Repentance Is Sin-Erasing Ink!

For
It Is Defense Against Satan Bold!

Child, Call My Name!
Within It Is Grace
Sufficient
For Any And Every Day!
It Is That Whereby Any Trial You May Face!
It Is That Whereby You Will Remove Any Disgrace!
It Is That With Which You Will Live Chaste
Uncompromised!

Child, Call Me
Believing Faithfully In Me
Even When
My Hand You Do Not See!
Just Trust Me
And Walk
Living Right In My Sight!

I AM

My Father Said:

My Child,  Call Me!

I Said:


Father,  You Are In Heaven
I Hallow Your Name
Your Kingdom Is Coming
So
In Me, Let Your Will Be Done!

You Give Me Each Day
Living Bread 
Sufficient For My Need
Some For Sharing
And
Some For The Passersby's Feed!

You Forgive Me My Sins
So
Help Me To Forgive Those 
Who Against Me - Unrepentant - Did And Do Sin!

Father,
I Know That You Will 
With Every Temptation
Provide For Me A Way Of Escape
For
Yours Is The Only Kingdom!
ALL Power Is Yours!
ALL Glory Is Yours
And
I Desire To Live In It
With You
For Ceaseless Ages
Where There Is No End!

Father,
You Are Mine!
You Are My Hallelujah
You Are My All And All!
You Are
Amen.

God Is True!
Every Man Is A Liar!

Looking For And Finding God




I Wanted To Serve God!
My Soul Desired A God To Worship
BUT
I Was In A Quandary!

Where Could I "Find" God?

There Was A Church On The Corner!
There Was A Church In The Middle Of The Block 
On The Corner Of Each Long Short Street
Where All The People Flock!

There Was The Pretty Church
The Proud Church
The Finished Church
AND
The Church - Building Incomplete!
AND
There Was Even The Church
Where You Could Purchase A Velvet Covered Seat!

There Was The Church On Broadway
There Was The Church On The Narrows
There Was The Church Full Of Blessings
AND
There Was The Church Of Bare Laughs!

NOW ...

ALL The Churches
"Had God!"
ALL The Churches 
"Had The Only God!"
AND
ALL The Churches Had
"God -  For Real!"

AND ...

There Was "God Spectacular!"
AND
The "Real God In The Cave!"

I Was In A Pickle!
For 
ALL The Different Churches
ALL Had The Same God Only Different With Specificity a/k/a
"Choose Make Your Own God To Order!"

BY NOW ...

My Pickle Had Pepper Problems!

AFTER SOME SERIOUS THOUGHT ...

I Remembered My Granny Telling Me
When I Was In The Grass Hopper Grade 
- I Was Small -
That:

"Making One's Own God's Idolatry! - Don't Do It!
You Must Worship The Living God!  
You Must Worship The Every Where
Every Day
In Everything
In Who Is Everything
Can't Be Fazed By Your Something
Never Behind On Anything
God 
Who Created You
Who Sustains You
In Whom Is Your Life
Who Will See You Through The Strife
The God In Whom Is Eternal Life
AND NOT
One Who Cavorts
In Pleasure Palaces And Resorts!
God Is Your Friend
BUT
You And God Are Not Company!"


I Could Go On But YOU Get The Drift,  Right?!

The One Thing That Stood Out From Granny's Lecturing Was This:

"God -  Almighty God
The Holy God
Is The God Of Order
The God In Whom There Is No Shadow Of Turning!
His Word Is Who He Is!"

Well ...

That Left Out All The Brand Name Church Gods!

My Granny Had Given Me My King James Bible
When I Reached The Age Of Understanding

So ...

I Prayed 
AND
Daily Read My King James Bible!







After A While ...

Because I Was Sincerely Seeking
The True And Only Holy God
I Received "The Call!"
AND
Accepted A Place 
In The Class Of
"The God Not Popular!"
Who Desires
Self-Denial
Obedience
Confession Of Sin
Repentance
Baptism By Immersion
AND
Standing Up For Jesus!
AND
I Am Happy!

I Walk With The King!
I Walk With The God Eternal!

PERSONAL PUZZLER: CAN You Recognize Falsity From Truth?




How Do You You Know
The False 
From
The True?

Do You Imbibe On The False
Hoping That The Excreta Is The True
OR
Do You
- With Determination -
Dig
Sift
AND
Examine
ALL THINGS
Known To Be The True
So That At Falsity's Appearing
He Won't Pass You Get Through?


If We Know 
The Truth
We Won't Fall 
For 
The Lie!

If We Live 
For 
The Lord
Satan Won't Us Get By!

Live For Your Savior!
Live In His Word!
Live For His Love
AND
The Sheep Blessing
AND
Walk Away From Satan
AND
The Bacchanal 
Beloved Of The Goat Herd!

Can You Recognize Truth From Falsity?

Is The False True
Because Of The Constant Boo-Boo
Which
- In Time -
- By Constant Use -
Became Accepted
As "True Fact?"

Is Your "Truth" 
- Causing Satan To Laugh
AND
Jesus To Cry -
Leaving
You - Like A Turtle -
Stuck
- Vitals Plainly Exposed -
Lying Helpless On Your Back?

How Would You Counter A False-True Attack?

*******

LEARN THE FACTS:

Truth = TRUTH!

Lie = LIE!

3/4-Truth + 1/4-Lie = LIE!

2/3-Lie + 1/3-Truth = LIE!

White Lie a/k/a 1/2-Truth = WHOLE LIE!

Fear Fear!?!





Fear Is Fearsome For Many!
Fear Is Frightfully Fun For Some!
Fear Is Famous For Giving Goosies
And, To Sum
Some Say If You Don't Enjoy Being Frightened
You're Basically Ho Hum!

I Know What I Just Wrote Wrote Is Nonsense
For
God Said He Didn't Give His People
A Spirit Of Fear
So
That Means That Fear Is Of The Devil
AND
No Christian Has Any Reason To Indulge Worldly Fear! 

Fear Frightens!
Fright Gives The Frightened Fellow The Feels!
AND
Feelings Of Fright
Gives Frightened Feet The Legs Of The Motivated Steed!

SO ...

People Of God
Don't You Dare To Be Frightened
When Our God Said: "Do Not!"
Call Satan The Liar What He Is
AND
Give God His Glory 
Not Your Grunts!


Present 
The Aspect 

Of 

Godly Fear

Before 
Almighty God!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Code Of God






Dear Pastor,
I Do Not Know Your Name!

Dear Pastor,
Your Christianity To Me Is Quite Strange!

Dear Pastor,
The Bible Is Not The Book Arcane
AND
Your Preaching Is Foolishness Writ Large!
Can You For Deceived Souls
Before God
Take The Eternal Blame
AND
The Eternal Shame?
Are You Of Heaven - As You Say - Really In Charge?

Philosophy Is Opinion Quite Grand!
Putting God Into It
Doesn't Change It From The Opinion Of Man!
Putting It In Church
Doesn't Bless It By God's Holy Hand
AND
Reviewing It In The Media Doesn't Give It Steady Legs
Upon Which To Grand Stand!

Jesus Saves!
Any Man Can That Understand!
Jesus Saves Man From Sin
Is Knowledge That Blesses
So Don't Hide It From Me
Saying That That Knowledge Is Too High For Me
AND
That It With My Pea-Brain Brain Messes!

Tell God's Truth!
My Brain Is The Same Size As Everybody's
So Don't Sell Me Down The River
Just Because Satan's Filthy Lucre's Wild
And Running
Fast Fit And Loose
To You Thou Fatted Goose!

You Have No Use For Heaven
AND
You Don't Want Me To Get In
So
Tell Me What I Did To You
AND
Why I Am Responsible For Your Sinning?

The Code Of The Living God
Requires My Coming Clean Before Him
Telling The Truth Of My Wicked Past
No Excuses Trivial Making!

God Requires Confession
AND
Repentance
For Our Not Walking In His Right Way
AND
Your Making The Living God A Liar
Is Not Going To Make God's Truth Go Away
Or Keep You Out Of Hell's Unquenchable Fire!

Almighty God Keeps Eternal Records
That You Can't On Your Computer Try To Delete!
You Can't Pay One Of God's Angel's To Change Them
Just Because
You Think That Almighty God Easily Tires and Sleeps!

The Book Of Life Bears The Names
Of All Who Accept Jesus' Sacrifice
Confessed Their Sins
Repented
AND
Received Forgiveness
From The Father For Them
BUT
The Book Of Remembrance Bears Record
Of All The Sins Of Men
Unforsaken
Unforgiven!

Dear Pastor,
I Know You!

Dear Pastor,
I Know Your Name
For
You Are Activated By Profit
AND
You Have No Shame!
The Profit You Covet
At The Cost Of Men's Souls
Will
- If You Don't Repent Of Your Gross Deceptions -
See You Dancing 
With Your Dying god Satan
Amongst The Burning Hot Coals!

P.S.:

Fire-Proof Suits Don't Work In God's Fire Lake
AND
Satan Who Deceives You
Cannot A Drop Of Water Give You
The Burning For To Slake

Sooo ...

Please Take A Page
From The Humble Christians' Ways To Please God Book!

Humble Christians
Who Know They Have Sinned!
Humble Christians 
Know They Need God
AND
They Tell God You're Sorry
For The Holy Way Having At Times Forsaken!

God's Plain Code For Living Life
AND
For Gaining Eternal Life
Is In The Preserved King James Bible
AND
Not In The Bible Written Suitable
For Your Benighted Penchant For Living
The Suite Sweet Life!


Almighty God Is The Eternal God
AND
He Has No Need 
To Constantly Have 
Carnal-minded Men 
Rewrite His Holy Word
To Make It 
Politically Correct
AND
Licentiously Current!

Stop Lying To God's People!





OPEN FOR WORSHIP: The Groves!


2 Kings 23:4-6 King James Version (KJV)

4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Bethel.

5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

6 And he brought out the grove from the house of the Lord, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.


There Is Nothing New
Under The Sun
So
There Is Nothing That I Say Here
That Should Any Body Surprise Or Stun!

The Groves Are Open For Worship!
Ashtoreth And Baal
Are Polished
And Shining Bright
AND
The Temple Prostitutes Are Open For Business
Early Morning
High Noon
And
Dark Night!

Hear The Barkers' Announcement:

Come One! 
Come All!
Get A Girl!
Get A Boy!
Whatever Your Tastes
We Have The Prostitute
In Our Employ
So
Do Not Let Your Self Be Bothered
By Your Gross Proclivity
Our gods Are All Inclusive
And
We Enthusiastically Welcome Every Body!

Dear Lord, 
Have Mercy On Your Faithful People!

"Hello,  There!
Won't You Stop In?
We Offer Great Cheer
And
Good Food
And
Good Drink
And Someone With Whom To Pleasantly Pair!
We Don't Follow The Old Landmarks!
We Feel And We Live!
Right Here And Right Now
Give Your Pledge
And Get Your Blessing
For Our gods Give Sweet Love ... And HOW!!"

"Sorry!
Can't Oblige You!
The Holy God Did Not Change
AND
I Chose To Walk In His Ways
To Achieve His Eternal Blessing
At The End Of All Earth's Days!"

"No!
I Can't Worship The Earth Mother!
No! I Don't Worship The Sun!
No! I Won't Worship The Elements
And I Don't Care If I'm Not Any Fun!"

"I Choose To Believe The Holy Word Of The Heavenly Father!
I Choose To Be Perfect In My Generation
Just Like God Told Noah Of His Generations In His Day
For I Want To Get On Board The Ark Of Salvation
And Not Be Cast Into The Fire And Brimstone Lake
Grave!"

"Get Thee Behind Me,  Satan!
You Can Shine As Brightly As You Want!
Your Truffles And Trifles Don't Impress Me
You Can't Offer Me Anything That I Need Or Want!"

"Jesus Christ Is The Captain
Of This Heart -  My Sailing Ship
And All That I Need Is Provided
For My Master's Tongue Is Not Nimble Glib!"

Thank You, Jesus
For Saving Me!
Thank You, Jesus
For Setting Me Free!
Thank You, Jesus
For Pointing Out The Holy Way
Please Help Me
On The Path True
Ever To Stay!
AMEN.

I'm Satisfied In The Lord Jesus Christ!

HAPPY SABBATH + The Joys Of The Flesh?!








Jesus Offered Me Something!
Something Holy And Good
BUT
Between Me
AND
Heavenly Bliss
The Glittering World Stood
With Glamour 
And Clamor
And Sensual Delights
For I - Enticed -
Boldly In Sin Did Delight!

I Knew By The Master
I Was Greatly Beloved
BUT
Delighting In The Joys Of The Flesh
With Pleasure 
I Entered The Flood
Of
Emotions
Enticements
Flatteries
AND
Flames
AND
Did The Holy Quiet
With Gay Abandon
Disdain

UNTIL ...

The Day When
Worn Out
Dismayed
Tired
Spiritually Bereft
Defenseless
Enchained
I Made Petition To The Father:

"If You Would ...?
If You Could ...?
I Know I Should ...
But ...
You Understand
That I
A Mere Human
Behaved Like Weak Man
And ...
Well ...
My Heart ...
My Head ...
I Am Almost Dead ...!
Would You ...?
Could You ...?
Father, Forgive Me!
I Am Behind Life's Wood Shed
AND
I Can Find No Living Bread!"

"Father, Forgive Me!
I Beseech You, Please!?!
I Know I Did Wrong!
I Have No Excuse!
I Was Enjoying The Siren's Thrilling Song!"

"Temptations Were Tumultuous!

Bad Habits Were Long Ingrained
AND
I Was Never Willing To Fight Them, Lord
AND
Now I Am Securely Enchained
BUT
I Know You Can Help Me!
I Know That You Are Wholly Holy True
Unlike The Other
Who Upon Me Did Ravenously Chew!"

"You Are The One Faithful!
You Are The One Holy God!
You Are The True Shepherd
In Jesus' Name
Please Get Me Away From The Fraud!"

"Give Me A New Heart!
Remove The Scales From My Eyes!
Enshroud Me In Your Clothes
AND
Help Me Not To Listen To The Vile One's Lies
About Liberty
AND
License
AND
Right To Do Wrong
To Mark My Own Pathway
Even If With My Own Life I Did Pay!"

"Oh, Lord
Forgive Me!
Let Your Spirit In Me Abide!
I Desire
Forgiveness Of My Sin
AND
Their Blotting Out
Because In You 
I Here AND Now
Do Confide!"

"Renew Me!
Remake Me!
Render Me 
Clean!
I Will No Longer Walk With The Wanton
By Your Grace, Lord
I Give Up The Sin Scene!"
