Contrition ... Pardon And Peace!?!

... And They're Bold Sinners!

Does That Mean That You're A Timid Sinner!?!

Uhh ... Umm ...!

Listen To Me Carefully, All Of You!

I Am A Sinner!
You Are Sinners!
We Are All Sinners
So Do Not Take Pleasure
In Pointing Out Another's Disgrace ...!

... But ...!

... There Is No But!

The Only Difference Between THOSE Sinners
And
US Sinners
Is
That We Have Chosen To Acknowledge That
We Are Sinners
And
That We Need The Savior

Which Is Something That They Have Not Done!

The Operative Words In All Of This Are
Chosen ... Choice
Acknowledge ... Recognition
And
Need ... Necessity!

One Thing That We Should All Bear
Is
If You Do Not See Or Feel Or Have The Need
Meaning
If You Don't Acknowledge That You Are A Sinner
Meaning
That You Don't Recognize That You Have A Problem
And
Are A Known Condemned Sinner
Needing Saving From - Not In - Sin
You Will Never Choose To Seek After
The Savior ... Our Only Savior
And
- I Can't Overstress This -
Satan, Old Experienced Deceiver Satan
Will Trip You Up
24/7 365 Days A Year
366 Days In A Leap Year!

Lord Almighty!
He Really Doesn't Take A Vacation!

He Can't Take A Vacation!
He Only Has A Short Time To Be The Adversary
The Accuser Of The Brethren
To Do The Dog
To Be The Raging Lion
To Be The Piercing Serpent
To Be The Heel-Biter
Before
- For Once And For All Time -
Jesus Christ The Savior Of Every Man
Turns Out His Light
Crushes His Head
Burns His Vile Body
Until He Is Completely Consumed
Rendering Sin A Thing
Never, Ever, Ever
To Rise Up Again!

I Look Forward To That Day!

It's All Well And Good
To Say You Look Forward To Satan's Demise
But
That Will Only Happen
If
With The Lord Christ
To Eternal Life You Rise!

Do You Truly Know Yourself!?!
Do You Recognize That You Are A Sinner!?!
Do You Acknowledge That Only Jesus Saves!?! 

Do You Know That No Demon
That Not Even Satan Himself
Can Overcome A Sinner-Born

And

Now Repentant, Who

In Child-Like, Simple Trust
Casts Himself, Bodily, Boldly
Upon The Lord Jesus Christ!?!

The Lord Cannot Save ...!

... Anyone Who Is Not An Acknowledged Sinner!

No Sin ... No Salvation!

Better Put
No Acknowledged Sin ... No Required Salvation!

In Short, Brethren
No Contrition ... No Sorrow For Sin
No Pardon
No Peace
No Soul Relief

And

Damnation Going Unto
And 

Coming Up Out Of The Grave!

Oh, Dear!
That Doesn't Sound Healthy At All!

Couldn't Actually Be Healthy Either!

What We All Need
Is
New Mind
New Heart
New Motive
New Life ...!

... Create In Me A Clean Heart, Oh, God ...!

... And Renew ...!

... And Renew A Right Spirit ...!

... People Need The Lord!

Teach Me Thy Way, Oh, Lord!
Lead Me Gently Home!
Feed Me!
Guide Me!
Chide Me, Dear Lord
Because
Dying In Sin
Is 

A Luxury I Cannot Afford!

Do The Math ...

Only A Step To Jesus
Is 

All That It Takes To Be Cleansed!
Only A Step To Jesus
And
The Life Lived In Sin Comes To Its Just End!

Trust And Believe!
Walk Right And Receive!
Cast On Christ Your Sin Today
And
Wing Your Way To Glory
After Enduring All For Him
One Bright And Glorious Soon Coming Great Day!

So, Brethren
What Do We Now Say!?!

Do Not Indulge In Own-Sin Self-Pay!

Get Thee Unto Jesus And Say:

Lord, 

I Come To You Confessing

I Am A Sinner Each And Every Day!

I Sin By Word 

By Thought

By Deed

And I, Contrite

Willingly Acknowledge That

You Are My Savior

And

It Is You

Your Forgiveness

Your Blessing

That I Sincerely Need!

Please Hear My Prayer!

Dear Lord, 

Please Take Me Over! 

AMEN.

Please Express Gratitude

G Is For Gratitude

G Is For Gift

G Is For Grace

G Is For Goodness

G Is For Godly Gain

G Is For Glory

And

G Is For God Almighty

In Whom We Live And Breathe

And

Have Any Being

So

Please Let Us Express Our Great Gratitude To 

The Gracious God
Who Generously Gives Us His Good Gifts:

Truth And Light
Hope Help Healing
Peace And Rest
Righteousness And Life

Mercy And Forgiveness

That Is

Grace, Now

And

If Enduring All For Christ To The End
Glory, Later!

Please Let Your Soul Bless The Lord ...

He Forgives All Your Iniquities:
Your Willful, Planned, Sins!

He Heals All Your Diseases:
Even The Incurable Ones!

He Redeems Your Life From Destruction:
Think About That Second Death From Which
There Is No Return!

He Crowns You With Loving Kindness
And
Tender Mercy:
All Day, All Night, Angels Watch Over You!

He Satisfies Your Mouth With Good Things
And 

Renews Your Youth:
He'll Make You Forever Young!

What Wondrous Love Is This 

Expressed To Us

By The Holy God!
He Gives By Daily Blessing
And

In The Day To Come
The Refreshing! 

Should Not We Trust This Great God
And
Not Through This Life
- Over Trivial Acquisitions -
Be Inordinately Stressing!?!

Think About It ...

All Bases Are Covered!
There Are No Nooks Or Crannies 

Where Things Can Hide From Your View!
Everything That The Lord Says That
He Will Do For You
Is 

In The Open
And
On Full Display!

The One Thing That We Are Not Given To Know
- Yet -
Is 

The Depth, Breadth, Height Of
The Glories He Has Prepared For His Beloved People
But
We Can All Rest Assured That
All Will Be Glorious
And
That ... Exponentially Multiplied
So, We, As True And Faithful Believers
Should Follow After Him ... Gladly
Gratefully
Unfailingly, Wisely, Wittingly, Willingly!

Think About It ...

Do You Realize That Sin Is A Sickness
That Also Makes Us Physically Ill
And
That Is Why Very Often We Read That 

The Master Told The One Ill
Seeking Bodily Healing:

Thy Sin Is Forgiven Thee!

Go And Sin No More

Lest ... Something Worse Befall Thee!?!

Do You Remember That Old Tongue Twister:

How Much Wood Would A Wood-Chuck Chuck

If A Wood-Chuck Would Chuck Wood!?!

How's This Question For A Change:

How Much Sorrow Would A Sinner Save 

If A Sinner Sacrificed Self To The Savior Always!?!

If Only We Knew
That Is, Really, Truly, Believed

That Our Mercy Free Is Freely Available
Easily Accessible
And
Alluringly Attainable!

Man Has A SICKNESS!
His Sickness Is SIN!
He SINS Because He's A Sinner
And
He Will Find Himself In The CESS!
He Involves His KIN In His Sin
Uncaring If They SINK
Into The Depths Of Degradation
Offering Love's KISS To The Devil
And
Away From Free Mercy Walking!

So Much For The Question Oft' Ask:

"What Sin!?!"

But, Thank God

There Is The Savior!

Be Grateful, Brethren ...

There Is The Savior Who Blesses

Who Saves

Who Forgives 

Who Heals

Who Seals

Who Leads

Who Reveals

If, We

- Seeing Our Need -

Will Confess And Repent To The Father

- In Jesus Christ's Holy Name -

All Our Known Sin!

It's Time To Get Out Of Our Messes!

So, Look Up With Love's Eyes!

Lift Up The Weary Hands!
Plod On On Strong Legs!
Jesus Christ Is The Son Of Man
For You ... He Died And Rose Again

And

For You

- Willing Sinner-Saved -

He's Coming To This Earth Again! 

Ooooh, The Unspeakable Gift ...

The Gift Given To Man

Is 

Eternity Wide
Eternity Long

And 

Eternity High
And
All It Costs For You To Achieve It
Is

"I Desire You, Lord! 

Here's My Heart: 

Come Inside And Abide!

I Desire To Walk About Zion

Ever At Your Holy Side!"

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

The Acceptance Of The Gift

Changes

The Tide Of The Sinner's Life!

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

In The Lord Of Life

Please Confide

And

For The Glorious Gift

Express Gratitude!

Change The Tide!

Godliness: Gain

I Must Correct You, Brother!
You Are Speaking A Word That Is Error!

Godliness With Contentment Comes Before Gain!

Gain Is Not The Mark Of Godliness
And
Neither Is Penury The Mark Of Sinfulness!

Excuse Me!?!
I Do Not Recall Giving You Leave To Correct Me!
This Is My Church!
I Am The Pastor Here!
Touch Not The Lord's Anointed!

Yet, Again
I Must Correct You, Brother!
The Building May Be Yours
But 

The Church Belongs To
And
Is Purchased, Protected And Cherished
By Jesus Christ The Lord
And
You Were Not Appointed Or Anointed 

To The Ministry Of The Pure Gospel
To Teach Error To The People Of God!

Sit Down And Be Quiet
Or I Will Have You Forcibly Removed!
You Are A Troubler Of These Simple People!

Am I Now Your Enemy
Because I Choose To Speak The Truth That
The Living God Loves!?!

Am I A Troubler Of These Simple People
- Your Words -
Because 

I Do Not Choose To Countenance
Your Half-Truths Which Are Outright Lies!?!

The Word Of The Living God Is, Yes, Simple
Simple Enough For Simple People
Even Children To Understand
But
You Have No Right
- Nor Authority -
To Encourage The People Of God
To Set Aside The Lord's Truth
For The Lying And Corrupt Words Of
An Unregenerate Christian
A Soul Who Does Not Believe
Nor Is Affected By The Good Word 

Which He Is To Unpolluted Preach!

SILENCE!
Now Be So Bold As To Please 

Leave This Hallowed Chamber
And Do Not Ever Return Again!

As You Desire, Brother
But
Before I Depart
I Shall Shine Light In This Encroaching

Engrossing Darkness:

Brethren, Beloved

Please Listen Unto Me!
The Word Of God 

Is 

Plain
And 

Must Not Be Interpreted By Man
Looking To Gain A Famous Name!

The King James Bible
The Preserved Word Of God
Is 

Its Own Interpreter
And
The Rule Is Simple:

Precept Upon Precept
Precept Upon Precept

Line Upon Line
Line Upon Line
Here A Little, There A Little
And
By Two Or Three Witnesses
Let A Matter Be Established! 

You Must Not Build A Doctrine On One Bible Text!

I Will Have You To Know That
The Lord God Almighty Gave Me An Agile 

And Creative-Thinking Brain 

To Do His Holy Work As I See Fit!

The Lord God Almighty
Did Not Give You An Agile Brain
To Pervert His Words!
You, Sir
Are Changing The Word Of God
And 

That Makes You A Liar
And 

For That Sin
The Lord Rebuke You!

Brethren, Please Read The Bible For Yourself
And
Please Pray For The Holy Spirit's Guidance
When You Read That Living Word!
Let The Everlasting Teacher
- The Spirit Of Truth -
Teach You
And 

You Won't Be Led Astray
By Those Who Are Members Of 

The Disobedient Wild Goat Herd!

Please Do Not Indulge In Sowing Seeds
- That The Lord Did Not Ask You To Sow -
To Wicked Men Who Only See You As Their 

Personal Cash Dispensers!
They Do Not Have Your Eternal Interests At Heart
So
From This Den Of Iniquity
- That Is This Den Raised Upon Planned Sin -
Please See That You Depart!

Please Let The 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Guide You!
See That You Follow The Lord Christ
And
Not The Cult Of Personality Of Fallen Man!

Walk Away From This Hireling Shepherd
This Bold Worker Of Iniquity
Or You Shall Not
On Zion's Table-Land By Right, Stand!

Brethren,

Know This:

1. Jesus Christ, Alone, Saves!
Not The Pastor, Preacher, Pope, President
Prince Nor Parent!

Only Jesus Christ Saves
And 

That According To His Sovereign Will
And
In His Holy Way!
He Will Never Save You In Sin
Nor Save You For You To Keep Sinning!
Jesus Christ Saves You From Your Personal Sin!

2. Do Not Indulge In The Sin Of Presumption!
Indulging In Accepting 

And 

Performing Based On A Known Lie 

Is 

Bold Sin
And
The Lord Will Not Bless You 

While You Are Willfully Sinning!

I Offer You A Note Of Caution:

There Are Many "Blessed" People 

Who Don't Even Recognize That 

Their Cherished Blessing
Is 

The Means Through Which They Shall Be Cursed!

Please Keep Your Eyes 

Fixed And Focused On Judge Jesus
And
Your Hands In The Hands Of The Able Savior Jesus!

3. The Holy Bible Is No Good For You
If
What Is In The Holy Bible Is Not Inside Of You!

Do Not Just Be A Hearer Of The Living Word!

Do Those Things Which Will Ever Please The Lord!

Serve The Lord In Righteousness

And

Remember That The Hand Of Man

Is 

A Very Poor Thing In The Day Of Battle!

I Will Pray For The Light Of Life

To Illuminate The Way Of Grace For All Of You!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: ANXIETY!?!

Do Not Use The Cover Of
Physical Anxiety
To Indulge In Sin!
Your Life Is Not Blessed Thereby
And
You Shall Not Be Permitted To Live
In The Beautiful Land
Beyond The Sky!

Why Are You So Easily Discouraged!?!
Why Are Your Feelings So Easily Hurt!?!
Don't You Understand That In Getting Home To Jesus
We Shall Have Trials
Tribulations
Tests Of Faith!?!

It Is Not A Cake-Walk!
It's A Gauntlet
And
We Must Cooperate With The Holy Spirit
If 
We Are To See The Accomplishment
- By The Holy God Faithful -
Of The Good Work!

We Are Not To Walk Like Unbelievers
Nor Dress As They Do
And
Talk
Of Looking Back
Going Back
Giving Up
Running Away
When We Have The Holy God
And
All Heaven
Rooting For And Working Unstintingly
To Help Us Achieve ... In Flying Colors
The Promised And Great Reward!

Know The Right ...

You Have The Preserved Word: Prayerfully Read It!
You Have The Access Of Prayer: Enter In Without Fear!
You Have The Holy Spirit's Comfort: Rest Easy In Peace!
You Have Holy Angels For Companions:
Pick Up Your Heels!
These Excellent
Excelling In Strength Companions
Will Not Your Side Leave!

And Never Forget ...

You Have Gifts Of
Mercy, Grace And Faith
Each According To The Day That You Will Meet!

Get Up!
Stand Up ... And Be Counted For Christ!
Do Not Let Your Life Be Wasted!
Give Your Anxiety To Jesus!
Do Not In Sorrow Indulge In Vain Sleep!
Give Your Anxiety To Jesus
And
He Will Give You Calming Peace
Forever To Keep!

Get Thee Hence

Unto

Christ Jesus

And

Your Daily Rations Reap!

HAPPY SABBATH + RISE UP: Descend Into Prayer! + PRAYER: I Come To You, Dear Father ...!

Repair Unto Prayer
Each And Every Day!
Moment By Moment
Rest Assured
That He Who Made And Sustains You
Does For Your Purchased Soul Care!

Do Not Fret About Your Problems!
Do Not Fret Because Of Your Foes!
Do Not Fret Because By Satan You're Bedevilled!
Almighty God Is In Control!
The Gifts Of Grace And Mercy Are Fully Yours!

Believe And Trust The Lord!
There Is Power In Prayer!
The Prayer Of Faith Will Move Your Mountains
According To His Will
And
Always In His Way!

Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget:

The Prayer Of Faith
Unselfish, Heartfelt
Is 

Always Answered
Even If The Answer
Is
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Not Yet!"

And, Also

Remember The Journey Of Paul

Saint, Apostle
Champion For The Holy God
Whose Received Answer
To His Heart's Sincere Prayer Was 

"Do Not Ask Again!

My Grace Is Sufficient For You!"

So, Brethren, Beloved
If The Answer Received
Is Not The Answer You Want
Remember That He Who Loves You
Did Not Withdraw From His Only Begotten Son
The Vile
The Bitter Cup!

Jesus Christ Emerged From Hell
Victorious
And
Rose To Heaven
Triumphantly
Leaving Behind For Us Who Trust
Honor
Worship And Obey His Voice
The Perfect Example To Follow!

Read Your Holy Bible And ... Pray!
Pray And Walk Upright
On The Holy Way
And
No Matter What Life Throws In Your Pathway
Live Victoriously In Christ Jesus!
Lift Yourself Up By God's Available Grace!
Always Wholeheartedly Descend Into Prayer
Which Always Rises Up To Him
Who, For You ... Me, Too
Does Sacrificially Care!

Did You Pray The Prayer Of Faith Today!?!

What Are You Waiting For!?!

Go On!

Bless The Lord With A Prayer!

PRAYER:

Father,

I Come Because I Know You Love Me

And Because You Said

Come Boldly To The Throne Of Grace

To Find Help In The Time Of Need!

I Love You, Father

And

We Need Help!

Lives Are Being Taken Like Free Candy!

The Rulers Seem To Be The Young!

The Leaders Are Eating For Drunkenness

And Not For Strength

And

Constant Chaos Is The Beverage Of Choice 

In The Nations All Around!

Love Approved Is Eros!

Agape Love Is Known Vain!

Love Of Money Is Amazingly Bold!

Everybody And His Mother Wants Gold

And

Truth May Be Purchased

On The Stock Brokers' Exchange

And

Money-Men Have Hearts Known Cold!

What Is Right Is Wrong!

What Is Wrong Is Strong!

What Is Weak Is Disposable

And

The Defense Of The Unborn

Is Considered Execrable!

To The Learned, The Enlightened

The Hireling Shepherds Amongst Us

Jesus Christ Is Not The Answer At All

And

Those Amongst That Are The Faithful

Are Being Looked Upon As Incorrigible

And 

The Dominion Of The Damned One

Is Seeking Already

Innocents Lives To Do Away!

Oh, Lord

Please Hear My Cry, My Prayer!

How Long, Dear God 

Before From This Shambles We Will Fly Away!?!

I Know Your Word Is True!

I Know That What You Say You Will Do

You Will Do!

I Know That You Are The On-Time God

And

That You Have Already Sealed The Fate Of 

Satan The Wannabe God!

Father,

Please, As You Have Promised

Correct Us!

Direct Us!

Protect Us Through The Strife

And

Bless Us With All Blessing To Take Hold

- Unbreakable Hold -

On The Purchased Eternal Life!

Father,

We Are Of Mortal Frame, Corruptible

Deceitful Of Heart

And

Our Sin-Nature Is Bold!

Please Help Us, In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

To Remain Sheltered In The Safe Sheep Fold!

Please Help Us Not To Doubt

Not To Lose Faith

Not To Trust Our Eyes! 

Help Us, I Beseech You

Not To Fall For Satan's Bold Lies!

Please Help Us To Think Always On Jesus!

Help Us To Honor Him Gladly

Worship Him Faithfully

And 

With Alacrity

The Still Small Voice To Obey

And

Help Us To Be Fearless, Bold

To Sound The Battle Cry

Alerting All To The Fact That

The Enemy Is Around

And

Within The Camp!

Please Help Us

The Hand Of The Majesty Of Heaven

Wittingly, Wisely

Wantonly To Take Hold!

We Know The King Is Coming!

Oh, That The Church Militant

Would Fulfil The Commission

And

Tear Down The Strongholds Of The Enemy

Who Is Dressed And Speaks As A Friend

When His Sole Desire Is To Destroy Souls

Without Measure

Without End!

Father,

I Have This Hope

As I Walk The Lonesome Road

As I Take The Narrow Path Known Strait:

Jesus Christ Saves ... To The Uttermost!

Jesus Christ Is My One Hope For Glory!

Jesus Christ Is My Only Savior Redeemer King!

Jesus Christ Has Already Won The Battle

And

The War

And

The Proof Of His Victory

Is

His Touchable Marred Head Hands Feet

And His Pierced-Side Scar!

Jesus Christ Is Alive!

I Need You, Father!

We Need You, Blessed God!

Help Us To Stand Firm

Unmoveable

In The Faith Of Christ Jesus!

We Long With You To Forever Abide!

Our Hands Are Extended

Eager To Receive The Promised

Enduring-Saints' Reward

So, Please Come For Us Soon, Dear Father!

We Ask These Few Blessings

In The Great Name

Of

Your Beloved Only Begotten Son

Jesus Christ The King!

AMEN.

I Am Redeemed!

Even In The Midst Of Trials
The Peace Of God
- The Peace Of The Living God -
Makes Even Sorrow A Song!

Well, You May Ask
How Can I Sing
When Hope And My Heart Are Shattered!?!

When Faith Is Trembling!?!

When Courage Is Wandering!?!

I Sing, Dear Friend
Because
To The Cross Of Christ, I Cling
Knowing
That When He Comes Again
With Him ... To Heaven
He Will Be Carrying Me Along!

So, In Child-Like Trust, I Sing A Zion Song!

I Will Not Look Down
At The Shards Of Disappointment!
I Will Not Look In
And 

Dwell On Those Things That Were My Shame!

I Shall Look Up To My King ... Lifted Up
High
In His Glory
And
I Shall Plod On ... In Faith

- Mustard Seed Faith -
Nothing Wavering
Reading The Living Word
Watching
Waiting
Working Out My Own Soul's Salvation
As Told
In The Good News
The Gospel Story!

Happy In Jesus!
Repentant Over Sin!
Glad Over Forgiveness
In Truth Now Walking
Blessed
Abiding
Confiding
Grateful
Free
I Choose To Trust And Obey
And
Hope For Coming Glory
Having Stepped Away From Living 

The Base Life Of The Willful Wicked
And
The Presumptuous Ungodly!

I Sing
Because 

Jesus Christ Saves ... Me!
I Love
Because 

Jesus Christ Loves ... Me!
I Bend Now So As Not To Be Crushed Later
And
I Worship
Because
Jesus Christ The Righteous

Is 

My Judge

My Lord, God, King

My Provider

My Sustainer

My Hope

My Help

And
My Only Savior

And

With His Shed Blood, Innocent

I Am Redeemed!
