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!

Grasshoppers And Giants + PRAYER: Lead Me Gently Home, Father!

I Don't Know About You
But
The Problems Of This World
Seem To Take Me For A Grasshopper
AND
Are Trying To Make Me Out To Be
A Grasshopper In My Own Eyes
BUT
Praise Jesus
I've Got Me That Little Ration Of
Daily Faith
AND
I Don't Intend to Let
Any Lying Goliath
Turn Me Into A Faithless Disgrace!

I Believe The Word Of God
That:

• The Living Word IS Sharper Than Any Two-Edged Sword
• The Living God IS The Same Yesterday Today AND Forever
• All Who Go To The Eternal God MUST Believe That He IS AND That He IS A Rewarder Of Them That Diligently Seek Him
• All Things Are Possible To Him Who Believes
• Faith Without Works IS Dead
• My Faith In Christ The Lord Will Make Me Whole
• Almighty God's Grace Is Always Sufficient ... For Me
• The Race Is Not To The Swift NOR The Battle To The Strong, And
• He Who Endures To The End Shall Be ... Saved!

PRAYER:

Lord,

I'm Being Tempted

But Not Beyond Endurance! 

I'm Being Sorely Tested

But Your Grace Is Sufficient! 

I'm Being Severely Tried

But

In The Name Of Christ Jesus

I Will Never Your Being Deny!

  

I Beseech You Also, Father

In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

To Help Me Never Ever

My Love

My Worship

My Faith

My Service

To You

To Deny!

Lord, 

I Deny The Liar

And

His Workmen

Doubt And Despair

Impatience And Self-Will

And

Living Without Godly Fear!

Oh, Lord, 

My Father In Heaven

My Beginning

My End

Please, I Beseech You

- Who Is My Daily Support -

Against The Wiles Of The Devil

My Soul, Defend!

Forgive Me My Trespasses! 

Teach Me Your Ways! 

Correct My Wayward Walking! 

Remake Me So That

For My Own Sin

I Will Not Have To Pay!

I Pledge Allegiance To The Lamb!

On The Rock Of My Salvation

I Humbly Stand!

Shelter Me Under Your Mighty Wings

For 

I Am Your Child To Lead

And 

Your Loyal Servant To Instruct!

I Give Unto You

Your Honor As My Heavenly Father! 

I Give Unto You

My Fear: You Are Almighty God!

I Accept Your Sovereignty

Over My Life

And

I Look Toward The Last Day

And

The Coming Of The Glorious King

And

No More Mortal Strife!

Lead Me Gently Home 

To The Haven Of Rest

And

Bless Me

In My Living

Your Holy Name Ever To Laud

Ever To Bless

For

I Desire Your Best Blessing!

Let Not The Hollow Giants Of This World

Be Anything Over Which I Shall Stress Myself

And

Grant Unto Me

Your Grace

Your Peace

Your Rest

So That At Your Holy Hand, Lord

I Shall Always

Be Royally Blessed

For

I Ask All In Faith

And

In The Glorious Name Of

The Holy Jesus!

I Love You, Lord! 

AMEN!

From Head Knowledge To Living Wisdom!

Okay, Guys!
Let's Chew On This For A While:

What Are You Hearing, Seeing, Understanding?!

Well ...
The Text Speaks For Itself
And It Tells Its Own Story!

To My Mind
It Is A Stairway
To Surpassing Glory!

Go On!
Tell Us More!

Very Well!
It Is Like This:

If Something Is True
It Will Be Honest!

If Something Is Honest
It Should Also Be Just!

Just IS Justice IS Just!
It Must Contain Elemental Fairness!

When Something Is Just
It Will Also Be Pure!

Purity Contains No Taint!
It's Wholesome, Clean!

AND ...

Because Something Is Pure
It Is Ever Lovely!
Think Pure And Undefiled
As In ...

Something That Is God-Given Lovely
Is Worth My Speaking aka Reporting On It!

If Something Is Worth Speaking About
There Must Be Virtue ie., Strength And Power Behind It!
Think Of Jesus And The Woman With
The Issue Of Blood!

I Like That!

Very Good Point!

And, Finally ...

Because Praise
- Blessing -
Comes Of The Holy God
For Right Doing
Right Living
Right Thinking
Right Speaking
Righteousness
We Should Think Aka Dwell Upon
These Few Things
Which Will Hail Us Before The King
Who Is
Creator Sustainer
Savior Redeemer
Help Hope
Teacher Guide!

This Word Is Strong!
This Word Is True
AND
As Touching Christ Jesus
It Takes Virtue ie., Strength And Power
From Him
AND
Imparts Hoped-For-Healing
To Me And To You!

Well Done!
I Have Nothing To Add To That!
May Our Almighty God

Grant
That Knowledge Turns To Understanding
And Understanding To Wisdom
So That We

May Indeed Be Wise
Unto Sure Salvation!

AMEN!!

That Was Really Nice!

Indeed!

The Bible Explained
- Explains -
Itself!!

Lord, Keep My Mind ...!

Jesus Christ The Righteous
Took Our Sinful Flesh
To Give Unto Us
His Holy Spirit
So That We May Be Reconciled Unto
Our Father God
AND
To Attain Holy Heaven
To Live Eternally At Rest
Where Love Has No Limit!

Oh, Perfect Love!
My Human Thought Is Transcended
AND
In Your Blessed Faith
I Faithfully Kneel Before Your Throne!

I Look Ahead
To The Day When My Eyes Shall See Clearly
AND, I- In Perfect Peace -
Am Satisfied
AND

At Home
With All The Redeemed
The Perfectly Blessed!

My Eyes Have Not Yet Seen
Nor Have My Ears Ever Heard
The Joys That The Holy God
Has Prepared
To Bless The Flock Of The Safe Fold
AND, YETIn My Heart
- Believing Trusting
Loving Knowing -
I Live In Joyful Celebration
That The Lord Christ's Atonement
Bought For Me
Tried Gold Precious
AND
A Personal Space
In The Heavenly Home!

Lord,

I Can Wait!

Lord,

Help Me To Wait

To Bodily Hold

The Gift That Was Given

- Purchased With Innocent Blood -

That Dark Day

On Mount Calvary!

Lord, 

Keep My Heart!

Lord,

Please Keep My Mind

Stayed On The Rock

My Savior

My Redeemer, Kind

Whom I Do See With My Own Eyes

Now No Longer

By Sin

Made Blind!

Lord,

Draw Me Nearer

And

Please Help Me

To Keep The Faith

For

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

I Humbly Pray And Plead!

AMEN. 

Drinking And Enjoying The Cup ... Of Blessing!

All Who Depart From Sound Doctrine
Will Drink The Bitter Cup
Served
Without The "Honey" Of The Cup Of Blessing
That Is Held To The Lips Of The Obedient Faithful
By The Loving Hand Of Jesus Christ The Lord!

All Who Will Live Godly Lives
Will Suffer Persecution
AND
All Who Will Surrender Their Will
To The Lord Jesus Christ
Will See The Dominion Of Darkness
Vigorously
Committedly
Unremittingly Try
To Make Christ's Followers
The Way Of Truth Deny!

The Child That Walks Under The Banner Of Christ
Will Have
"Do What Thou Wilt!"
As The Panacea Against Doing God's Will
Hailed Before Their Face
BUT

KJV Romans 8 - Faith's Manifesto - Which Says

38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Is In The Blessed Cup Of Blessing
AND
Nothing
- Because Of Jesus Christ's Saving Faith
AND
God's Great Grace
AND
Mercy Free -
Will Make The Soul-Surrendered

Willing
Obedient
Serving Child Of God
- Baptised Into Christ's Sufferings - 
Turn Away From Truth
Unto Fabulous Lies
The Known Demonic Device!  

Self And Will

Collide With Faith
AND
Only One Will Stand
So
Choose You This Day
Whom Ye Will Serve
AND
Follow Your Lord's Command!

If The Living God 
IS 
The Eternal God
Serve Almighty God As King!

If Wayward Self And Wandering Will 
IS
Your God
Then Prostrate Before Them
As King Of Everything
Remembering
That You Are Slave
To Whom You Obey
AND
You Get The Perks Of The Kingdom
In Which You Pray And Play!

The Kingdom Of Christ
IS
Truth, Love, Light
AND
Eternal Life!

The Kingdom Of Satan
IS
Deceit, Darkness, Corruption
AND
Damnation!

The Kingdoms Are Two! 
The Destinations Are Two! 
The Leaders Are Two
BUT
Only One Is Everlasting
AND
Eternally True!

The One God Who Is True
IS
Jesus Christ The Lord! 
His Kingdom Is Light
AND
There
There Is No Night!

Thoughtfully Consider That ...

The Pleasures Of The Glorious Kingdom
Are Peace Love Righteousness
AND
Blessings
AND THAT
Almighty God, Himself
Is The Source Of  True Giving
AND 
Immortal Living!

Amazing, It Is
What The Cup Of Blessing Will Do
For
The Soul Of The Saint
Who Practices Obedience
Who Walks As One Holy
Who Does The Lord's Will
Who Permits His Soul
By The Holy Spirit To Be Filled
Who Leans On The Love Of The Eternal God
Who Trusts The Living Word
Who Thirsts For Sure Salvation
Who Turns Away From The Goat Herd
AND
Confidently Walks
With Obedient Sheep
Following The Known Voice Of
The Shepherd Of Rest Who
Takes Them To The Safe Fold Where

The Overcomers Rejoice

In Victory
With Joy
In Gladness
By Grace
Knowing, Yes, Knowing
AND
Beholding

The Lovely Face Of The Redeemer
He, Alone, Who

Shall Stand
At The Head Of The Van
As The Saints Of God
Ingress
Heaven's Table Land
To Live Love And Laugh
Shuck Of The Liar
AND
To Worship Pray
Praise And Sing
To The King Eternal

Forever! 

Heaven

At Any Price

Is Cheap!

**-*-**-*-**-*-**

Hell At Any Price

Has The Cost

That Is

Too Steep!

Love Hopes!!

Hope O'Reward
AND
Fear O'Punishment
Both Serve The Living God...!

... Somehow I Doubt That!

I'm With You On That
Because
What They Are Doing
Makes Them No Different
From An Open Idolater!

Them's Strong Words!!

You'd Better Believe Them!

Who Is The Living God?!

The Living God Is Love!

What Is Man?!

Man Is A Sinner
Separated From The Living God!

What Is Sin?!

Transgression Of The Living God's Law!

Lawlessness!

So What Is Love?!

Love Does!

Love Hopes!
Love Helps!
Love Gives!
Love Does Not Give To Get!
Love Does Not Hope It Will Help!
Love Does Not Fear!

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear!

Love Is Not Covetous!

The Living God Desires Our Love!

AND
Anything Less Is Contemptible!

We Love Almighty God 

Because Almighty God Loves Us, First
AND
We
- Seeing The Blessed Love Work In Our Behalf -
Love The Eternal God ... In Return
Without Thinking About What We Will Get Next

AND
Without Fear Of What We Will Lose
If The Love Is Not Adequately Returned!

Almighty God's Love
- Like Almighty God's Grace -
Is Ever Sufficient
AND
Because That Love, IS
We Rest In It
Being Joyful
Being Comforted
Being Blessed
Being Eager To Please
Wanting To Bless
Knowing Always That Everlasting Love Cares
That True Love Never Leaves The Beloved
Lonely Forsaken Afraid ... Alone!

I Agree!

What He Just Said!!

Understand This ...

Reward And Love Never Marry!
Love And Hope Don't Carry
Fear
Which Loves To Tarry
Putting One In The Position Of Having 

To Parry
The Thrusts And Blows Of Misguided Affection
Which Have Not Time To Note Direction
BUT

Walks Wild

AND
Thinks Vain
Offering Up Gifts Like Cain
AND

Thinking Nothing Of Destroying
The Pure Of Heart
Because
Their Offering Of Love
Makes You
- Of Your Offering -
Regrettably ... Ashamed!

What He Just Said!!

I Agree!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Love Of The Eternal God ... Lasts!

How Do You Spell Love?!
What Does Your Love Mean?!
Is Your Love Holy
Or
Is Your Version Of Love Burdensome
Enchaining
Unclean?! 

Let's Look At Love!!

L is For  Love       Life       Liar                Line
O is For   Open      Over      Opportunity    Oil
V is For     Victory    Vice       Venture          Vacate
E is For       Escape    Error      End                  Endure

The Lord Of Life Who IS Love
Keeps The Liar In Line!
He Keeps The Way Of Salvation Open
So That We Have A Way Over Sin
That Is An Opportunity 

To Get The Anointing Oil Of The Divine!

The Lord Of Love
IS
Our Victory Over Vice
That Venture Which We Need To Vacate
AND
He
- By His Sacrifice On Calvary's Cross -
IS
Our Escape
From The Error Of Sin
For
He Is Our Beginning
Our Hope For Everlasting Life
IF
The Trials Of The Sojourner's Life ... With Faith
We Endure
To Mortal Man's Known End!

When We Believe The Lord Of Love
AND
Not The Liar A La Mode
We Have All Opportunity 
His Venture To Suspend
AND
End
AND
To Wear Christ's Righteousness
The Clean And White Linen Robes!

We Do Not Have To Let The Liar Profundo
Gag And Tie Us
Blind And Abuse Us
Because
We Have The Lord Of Love
- By Working Faith -
Above And Before Us
Beside And Inside Us
Ready Willing And Able Always
To Protect Provide
Teach Lead And Guide Us!

True Love Is Never Blind!
True Love Always Sees!
True Love  Loves And Works
True Love Blesses The Brethren
That Is, You And Me!

True Love Does Not Have The Gear Reverse!

True Love Conquered
Death Hell
The Liar
The Cold Grave
When
On The First Day Of The Week
- After The Sabbath Rest -
He Got Up
AND
Bridged
Earth And Heaven
Forever After Denying The Liar Brave
The Glue
That Would Make Men
Forever To The Lost Cause
Helpless Slaves!

The Holy Love Of The Living God Lasts
AND
The Great Liar
Into The Lake
That Burneth With Fire And Brimstone
Will Be Assuredly Cast!

The Lord Of Life's Love

Is

Eternally Vast!

The Lord Of Love's Life

Is

Everlastingly Vast! 

Get Ye Yonder To Him!

Let Your Lot For Him Be Cast

And

The Stench Of Sin

Will Be A Thing

Of

Your Willful, Sinful, Carnal Past!

HAPPY SABBATH + Cat's Miaow To Dog Botsi?!?

How Does One Go From
Being The Cat's Miaow
To Living Like A Dog's Botsi
From Grazing In Green Grass
To Living Off Weed
From Walking Straight
To Living Bent
To Having Given Up Sin
BUT
Only For The Season
That Is Popularly Called Lent?!

How Do You Worship God
But Only When Convenient?
How Do You Serve God
But Only When Expedient?
How Do You Praise God
But Only When There Is An Audience
AND
Deny God 

Because To Admit It
Would Mean That You Are Subservient?!

How Can We Progress
If We Live By Excess?
How Can We Be Adjudged Innocent
By God
If We Don't Our Known Sins Confess?
How Can We Be Blessed
When We Revel In Sin's Curse
Taking Pleasure In Hope-Killing
AND
Running After The Tricked-Out Hearse?!

Let It Made Known That ...

Without Jesus Christ
Man Twice Dies

BUT
With Jesus Christ
Man Shall Surely Fly
Without Need Of Rocket Fuel
Protective Garments
AND
Telecommunications' Tools

Because

He Has Peace With The Eternal God

AND
The Eternal Crown Is The Coveted Jewel!

Please ... 

Don't Fall For Satan's Fatal Lies

AND

Eternally Die
When, Instead

By Living In Faith In Jesus Christ

- Based On The Preserved Word Of Truth -
You Will One Day Soon
Range The Open Skies!

Trust Jesus!
Bless God!
Curse The Devil!
Learn From The Holy Spirit

AND
Be Protected By Holy Angels

Because
God's Love Can Never Lie!
God's Love Will Never Die!

For Your Own Soul's Sole Salvation
Do Not Your Soul's Savior

Decry

Defy

OR
Deny!
