CONQUEROR: On The Battle-Field ... Of The Mind!

The Battle Over Sin Is Won
In The Garden Of Prayer 
By Self-Denial
Through Full Cooperation 
With The Holy Spirit Of Truth:

Victory Is Ours
Whether We Are Old, Middling
Small Child Or Stripping Youth!


Jesus Christ Conquered Satan
Not By Cold Steel Or Powerful War-Horse!
Jesus Christ Conquered Satan
By The Living Word 
And
By Prayerful Obedience
With Consuming Love For The Lost
And
We Who Say We Follow Christ
Must Follow Him
In Thought
By Word
And
With Deeds
Starting At The Throne Of Grace
Expressing Love
Confessing Known Sin
Repenting Of The Past
Believing The Living Word
Accepting The Gift Of Life
Trusting The Promises
Following The Lord
Worshipping Wisely
Praising Wholly
Thanking God Gratefully

And

Girded By Gifts Of Infinite Love
From Him Who Is Eternal Love
Working ... By Faith
With Diligence And Endurance
With Our Backs To The Dying World 
And
Our Hearts Fixed Upon Our Master 
Knowing Of A Surety
The Battle Has Already Been Fought
And
With Finality
Won!

But How Can I, Personally, Win A Battle
That I, Personally, Have Not Yet Fought!?!

Beloved,
Our War Is On The Battle-Field Of The Mind!

I Don't Understand What You Mean!




Dear Heart,
When We Keep Our Minds Fixed And Focused 
Upon The Lord Jehovah
Our Hearts Will Truly Be Blessed: He Promised!
We Are In His Holy, Can't-Fail Care!

Understand This ...

Let's Thank The Living God
For Present Great Grace
And 
Soon-Coming Unimaginable Glory!

AMEN!!!

Jesus Christ: S. A. D.

She Said Jesus Christ Is Sad!

He Is!

Why Is He Sad!?!

He Isn't!

Come Again!?!
Either He's Sad Or He Isn't!
He Can't Be Both!

He Is ...!

... He Isn't!

Will Somebody Please Explain To Me
Why Jesus Is Either Sad Or Not!?!

Jesus Christ Is

S avior
A dvocate
D eliverer


So, For Short
Jesus Is S. A. D.!

He Is G.L.A.D.

G od
L ord
A dvocate
D eliverer

He Is A G.L.A.S.S.

A
G racious
L oving
A vailable ... Accessible
S anctifier
S hepherd And Shield

Oh! 
Okay! I'll Remember That!

Now Getting Back To Our Study ...




Psalm 19:7
The Law Of The Lord Is Perfect
Converting ... The Soul!

How Can The Moral Law Of God Be Abolished
When It Is That Which Converts The Soul!?!

It Can't!
Without Moral Law
There Is Only Crime And Chaos Left!

The Holy Spirit God Is Real
And
Is Our Only Defence Against Sinning!
He Teaches!
He Guides!
He Chides
And
He Leads Us Into All Truth
So The Question Must Be Asked:

How Shall We Escape 
If 
We Neglect So Great A Salvation!?!

We Won't!
The Word Of God Is True
And It Stands Eternally
And It Is By That Word
That All Flesh Shall Be ... With Finality
Judged! 

Alrighty, Then!
I Am Almost Persuaded
But I Need A More Convenient Time
To Commit To The Ways Of The Lord
That Will Lead Me Into Soul-Saving Truth!

I Am Praying For You!

Those Words Are The Words 
Used By Governor Felix
And
King Agrippa
And
Neither Of Them "Found" The More Convenient Time
Nor Were Finally Persuaded
And
They Are Both Lost To The Living Kingdom!

Now Is The Acceptable Time!

Now Is The Day Of Salvation!

Be Ye Warned And Armed ...

A Neglected Child Hurts!!
A Neglected Soul Sins
A Neglected Wound Putrifies!
The Neglected Savior Cries!
A Neglected Love Languishes!
A Neglected Salvation Sours!
The Neglected Holy Spirit Leaves
The Soul That Sins, Dies
Because
It Does Not Known-Sin Escry Aka Call-out
Because
Self Is To Self Sacrosanct
Elevated
Praised
And
The Lord Of Life Is Cast Aside
Because
We Refuse To Use The 
"Yes, Lord! Your Servant Is Listening!" 
By Which Means We Can Boldly Defy The Fraud
Satan
The Wannabe God!

Oh, Please!
Satan Is A Lying, Murdering
Deceitful, Snake Of An Ingrate!
Tell That Felicia, Bye, Bye!

Those Few Words Are Easily Spoken
But
Without The Grace Of The Eternal God
The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit
And
The Protection And Good Influence Of
The Holy Angels
We Will All Perish!

Brethren, Beloved

On The Living, Holy, Exalted, Christ Jesus
Let Us Rely!
Soon He Is Coming Back To Earth
And
We Shall Surely Tell Sin, Satan, Sorrow, Sadness
Self, Death, Hell And The Cold Grace
Goodbye!

It Is My Prayer Of Faith ... Nothing Wavering 
That We Shall All Meet In The New Jerusalem
In That Time  
After The Lord Christ Breaches The Eastern Sky!

AMEN!!!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Asher

I Said That There Is No Happiness
Outside Of The Lord Jesus Christ
And
He Said: "Bite Your Tongue!"
And Ever Since Then
He's Been Walking About Like That!

Who Are You Guys Talking About!?! 

Asher! 

What's Wrong With Him!?! 

Why Don't You Ask Him And Find Out For Yourself!?! 

Okay! 
Heyyyy, Asher! 
How Are You Doing!?! 

I'm Happy! 
I Used To Be Happy! 
I Thought I Was Happy! 
I'm Not Happy! 
When Will I Be Happy!?! 
Where Is Happy!?! 
Are You Happy!?! 
Who Is Happy!?! 
You Can't Buy Happy! 
I Thought I Cornered The Market On Happy ...! 

... Ooookay, Asher! 
That's Good To Know ... Hear! 

Merciful Powers! 
What Happened To Asher!?! 
He Sounds Like He Lost Mind! 

Oh, No! 
He's Still There! 
It's Just That He Is Finally Realizing That
Being "Happy" With Things Is ...! 

... Temporal And Temporary!?! 

Well, Yes! 
May I Assume That You Attended This Rodeo Before!?! 

Oooh, Yes! 
And It Was A Doozy
And I Got Thrown From My Horse
And I Got Gored By That Wild Bull Called Sin
And I Got A Deep Dip In A Bath Of Rotten Tomatoes Called Self
And At The End Of It All
I Came To The Realization
The Very Painful Realization That
Being Carnally, Temporally, Happy
Aka Happy Without My Jesus Being The Point Of My Life 
My Living
My Living My Life
My Life Being Made Worth Living
My Loving
Then I Would Never Be Permanently Happy!

That's Bible, Brother!




Asher Is Feeling Pain ... Now
But
He Should Be Glad
Because 





When We Live In Godly Fear
We Have Nothing To Be Afraid Of
Even If We Have No Home, No Family
No Money, No Food
No Friends ... No Earthly Hope!





Asher!?! 
You Listening!?! 

Yes! 
I'm Hearing You! 

I Know You Are Hearing: You're Not Deaf! 
I Want To Know If You're Actively Listening
Aka Internalizing What You're Hearing!?! 

I Don't Want To ... But I Am! 

Good! Good!

That's Very Good! 

What Else You Got!?! 
I'm Convicted! 
I'm Chewing! 
Now Convince Me! 
Show Me Light! 
I Need Something To Swallow! 
I Need Something To Permanently Satisfy My Soul! 
I Am Hungry! 
I Need Meat On These Dry Bones! 

Oh, My! 
He's Been Really Listening! 

Didn't I Tell You That He Was Still In There!?! 

Yes, Indeed, You Did! 

Well, Brethren
We All Heard Him!
He Has Asked For Meat! 

Jesus Christ Is A Plate Of Good Food! 
You, Man
Must Spear A Morsel With Your Fork!
The Holy Spirit
The Cleaver Of Truth
Cuts A Bite-Size Piece For Your Chewing
And You, Man
Must Raise Your Fork To Your Mouth
If ... When 
You Truly Desire Good Eats! 

Asher, This One's For You: 





Asher!?!
You're Crying!

No, I'm Not!

My Eyeballs Are Just Sweating!

Okay! If You Say So!

Can You Tell Us Why Your Eyeballs Are Sweating!?!

Do You Know What My Name Means!?!


Of Course, We Do!

Everybody Knows Your Name Means Happy!

Happy! That's Me!

Do I Look Happy!?!
I Must Be Happy ...!

... In Christ Jesus!

Yes! Yes! 
I Finally Get It! 
Jesus Christ Must Be First, Last And Always! 

Jesus Christ In Our Lives
Is 
For The Best! 

Take A Listen, Again, To The First And Last Verses Of The Text:

KJV Proverbs 3
13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,
and the man that getteth understanding.
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

Wisdom Comes From The Lord God Almighty ... Alone! 
All Who Look For Jesus Christ
- Who Is Now Calling To Man - 
Shall Find Him
And
Wisdom
And
Shall Gain The Understanding 
To Strive For Heavenly Things Which Are Eternal! 

You Need To Let Your Striving 
For The Things Of This Earth Cease
Because
The Lord Has Promised Us An Eternal Home
A New Name
A Crown Of Life
Water From The River Of Water Of Life
Fruit From The Tree Of Life
And 
A Life Ever Close To Him Who Is Life! 
Earthly Riches
- Be They Silver, Gold, Toys, Houses Or Land -
Will All Burn! 

We All Need To Buy The Free Clue
To Rightly Adjust Our Stinking Thinking:
The Streets Of The Beloved City
- The Beautiful City - 
New Jerusalem
Are All Paved With Imperishable Gold
And
The Foundations Of The City Are Precious Stones And...! 

... Don't Forget That
The Twelve Gates Of The City
Are Each A Single Pearl! 

Not To Be Mercenary Or Any Such Thing
But Put Like That
I Know For Sure That I Need To Live For Jesus Christ! 

Brother, 
We All Started With The Mercenary Bit
But
We Love Our Lord Jesus 
Because 
He First Loved Us
And
Everything He Has Promised 
The Things We Can Touch, Taste, Feel, See, Smell
Are All Bonus! 

We Desire His Life! 
His Character! 

We Desire Him
And
We Desire His Heart To Delight
Because
He Brings Us Joy
Aka He Is Our Happy...ness
Our Happiness! 
Jesus Christ Is Our Joy
And
He Will Bring You Joy ... Happiness
If You Will Let Him!

Brothers, Believe Me!
From Here On In
I Am Going To Let Him!
My Way Has Not Worked
Soooo, Having Nothing To Lose
I Am, Indeed, Going To Try
The Jesus Way!

AMEN!!!

HAPPY SABBATH + EVANGELIZE: Elevate The Platform!











The Servants Of The Living God
Should Never Blend In With The Crowd!
They Should Stand Up
And
Stand Out
And
Since They Are Proclaimed
Ambassadors For The Lord Christ
They Should Always Have Something Momentous
Life-Changing
Soul Uplifting
To Joyfully, Urgently, Talk About!


The King Is Coming!
Are You Washed And Ready!?!

Do No Prating!
Do No Berating!
Just Speak The Truth In Righteousness 
Whether It Is In Season Or Out!

The Fact Is
We Have Good Fruit ... Good Food
That The World's Hurting, Hungry, People
Should Thankfully Be Eating
So Do Not Around Wild Bushes Beat About!
Get To The Point ... And Poke The Devil In His Nose!
Truth Is A Fire Hose!

The Truth ...

The Word Of Truth From The Living, Holy, God
As Regards Sin, Sinning And Sinners
Is 
Truly Hard For Known Offenders To Accept
To Take
To Tolerate
But
When The Son-Light Illuminates The Riven Soul
Suddenly ... Understanding Dawns
- By The Working Of The Holy Spirit -
And
Now Newly Convicted Of Sin
And
Convinced Of Righteousness
The Old Sinner Rightly, Wisely, Desires
To Jesus Christ The Savior
With Alacrity To Get Home!
They No Longer With Deceitful Satan
 Desire Anymore Wildly To Roam!

The Elevated Platform ...

One Does Not Place A Burning Candle
Under A Bushel ... A Basket 
To Shine The Bright Light! 
One Places The Burning Candle
Upon A Prominence
So That Those Seeking Light ... To See
Shall Be Served
And
For Grace-Filled Illumination 
Give Praise Most Thankfully!

We Are To Stand Above The Fray
The Chaos 
That Does Darken The God-Given Good Day
And
Tell The Good News With Humility
And
In Power
Denying Wily Satan His Way
To Make Hurting Souls
Before Him In Fear To Cower! 
The Lord Christ Is Man's Strong Tower!

Don't Be Fooled ...

Living For Christ Jesus Requires Sacrifice
And
In Our Living For Jesus
We Cannot With Sin Play Nice
So Stand Tall ... Stand Firm
For It Is Upon The Eternal Rock Of Ages That We Rest
To Give The Warning Trumpet That Certain Sound 
So That All Will Hear The Good News That 
Jesus Christ Saves:
When From Heaven He Came To Earth
It Was Our Soul's Salvation
That He Had Lovingly Brought Down!
Sing The Song! 

Faith Comes By Hearing
Hearing The Living Word Of The Eternal God
And
By The Holy Spirit's Leading
We Must Each Do Our Small Portion
To Help Negate The Nefarious Works Of Satan
The Damned For Eternity God-Fraud! 


The Night Is Coming
When No One Can Work:
Are You Presently At Work
And
Diligently Working
For You Lord!?!

The Lord Has Not Promised ...!

The Lord God Almighty
Has Not Promised Unto Any Man
The Day Called Tomorrow:
Do Not On Satan's Bold Lies Stand!

When The Creator God
Plainly Says:




You Should Buy The Free Clue
And
Recognize That Any Living On A Distant Tomorrow
Is 
One Who Shall Surely Not Have
Even The Ability About It To Sorrow!

 The Lord Also Says:




The Day Given
Is
The Day Blessed
And
Anything Else Anticipated 
Is 
Asking One To Become 
Unnecessarily Stressed!

Today Is A Present
A Gift To Be Unsealed
So Do Yourself A Favor
And
Let It In All Its Heaven-Clad Glory
Be Gratefully, Joyfully, Accepted
As It Is Plainly, Beautifully, Revealed!

Take What The Lord Is Giving
And
Be Blessed To Be A Blessing
For That Is Your Success
Not Hunting And Pecking
And
Indulging In Known Sin
Which Must Then Be Confessed!




Do Not Live Carelessly!
Confess Your Known Sin
And
Repent Each And Every Day!
Do A Daily Debrief!
See For What There Is Or Should Be Grief
And
If In The Night
Or At The Morning's Shining Light
Your Life Is Required Of You
You Shall Go To Your Long Home
Assured Of The Eternal Day
In The Land Where
There Is No More Death
No Crying 
And
No More Sorrow!

Wisdom ...

Be Not As The Unwise
Who Plan For What Is Not Sure
Who Think That Death Is For Everyone Else
When Death Is Knocking At Their Own Door!

If Your Tomorrow
Does Not Include A Life With Christ
Be Ye Warned:
Your Life Is Not One That Can Be Called Blessed
For You Are Living On The Wing
Not The Prayer
And
Your Outcome Is Not One That
The Righteous People Of The Eternal God
Should Embrace Or Cheer!

The Lord Christ Has Given Unto Us 
Promises Preserved In His Innocent Blood
Which He Freely Gave For Our Soul's Salvation!
He Has Promised Us An Eternal Home
And
His Eternal Life
And
He Has Promised Us That He Will Never Again
Destroy The Earth With A Flood!

The World Is Reserved By The Lord
For Destruction With Unquenchable Fire
By His Hand ... Alone
And
All Who Choose Not To Live By His Merits
Shall Find Themselves 
- Along With Satan And His Fallen Angels -
Destroyed By It!

A Word Of Cheer 
For All Who Choose To Believe ...

Satan Is The Father Of Lies
And
His Stated Purpose Is To Deceive
But
The Lord God Of All Grace
Is
Faithful, Just, Loving, Kind And Ever True
And
He Is Calling, Calling, Calling
Pleading With You, Beloved
To Love Him
To Follow Him Faithfully
And
To Him ... Alone
To Be Obedient, Loving And Prayerfully True!

This Is His Sure Word Unto You:

The Lord Has Promised ...!

If I Have To Say It A Thousand Times
I Am Going To Say It:

By God's Great Grace
I Will Not Be Permitting Anyone
To Kill My Hope Tree
Because
I Am Satisfied With My Lord Jesus
And
I Want Nothing More To Do With Those Lying
Carnal-Minded, Self-Satisfied, Agents
Freely, Willingly, Wantonly, Working From Satan
The Known God-Fraud!

I See And Read About People Every Day
Who Have Riches But Are Poor Indeed!
I See And Read About People Every Day
Who Have Nothing Of The World's Goods
But 
They Are Truly Rich Indeed

And

I Well Recognize That
Money, Prestige, Power
Do Not Make Men Healthy, Wealthy Nor Wise
Nor Do Penury, Anonymity
Nor Apparent Weakness ... Incapacity
Make Men Worthy Of Disrespect!

Brethren,

When Jesus Christ Controls Our Lives
We Can Live Near The Devil
And
Not Fall For His Lies
But
When We Walk Wise In Our Own Understanding
Rest Assured That Hell And Damnation
Are Real Prospects That One Is Facing!

If A Person Cannot Give You Bread
Do Not Let Them Take Biscuit From You!
If A Person Cannot Give You A Good Word
The Word Of Truth
The Truth That Brings Life
It Is In Your Best Interest
In Their Companionship Not To Delight!

If You Cannot Accept A Good Word Of Admonition
And
You Are Pig-Headed
Listening Only To Your Lustful Heart's
"Truth" Version
You Should Know That
The Love Of God Does Not Abide In You
And
It Is Time For You To Change Your Walking Shoes!

Please Walk With The Lord Jesus
In The Light Of His Holy Word!
Get Away From The Goat-Herders
And 
The Judas Goats Attired As Sheep
Who Associate With Witches And Wizards That Peep!
You'll Enjoy Sweet And Peaceful Uninterrupted Sleep!

Remember That The Lord Has Promised
A Crown Of Life To The Sin-Overcomer
To The Enduring Faithful
To The Wise Servant
Found Gainfully Employed
Doing As He Was Commissioned
Even Though By Man's Reckoning
The Master's Return Is Called Late!
Live In Anticipation
For In The Time Not Expected
The Master Will Be At The Gate!
Riotous Living Is Not Fit Food
For A Christian's Plate!

Hope Springs Eternal In The Heart Of The Blessed!
Blessed Are Those Children
Who, Of Their Known-Sins, Do Repent!
Repentance 
Is 
A Privilege
A Privilege Which Brings Prestige
The Prestige Of The Child Forgiven
By The Father God Whom He Chooses ... Wisely
Always, In All Ways
Daily ... Moment-By-Moment
To Please!

Sunset Is On The Horizon!
Night Is Falling Fast!
Decisions Are Being Made:
Have You Your Vote For Salvation
For Life With The Lord Christ
For A Forever-Home In Glory
For A Lot In The Land Of The Blessed
For A New Name
For A Crown Of Life
Reverently Cast!?!
