Don't Grieve The Holy Spirit!

Are You Angry ... And Sinning!?! 

Are You Permitting The Sun To Go Down On Your Wrath!?! 

Are You Giving Shelter, Comfort And Aid To Satan!?!

 

Are You Starting To Grieve 

Aka Chase Away The Holy Spirit From Your Life 

By Your Behavior, Attitude 

And 

Your Stance In Life? 

Beloved, 

If You Are, May The Living God Have Mercy On You! 

The Facts ...

We Cannot Grieve, Cause Hurt, Sorrow, Or Anger 

In Someone Who Doesn't Love 

And 

Cherish Us In Their Heart! 

The Difference Between Grieving A Human Heart 

And 

Grieving God The Holy Spirit 

Is That

With The Loss Of The Holy Spirit

We Lose Perfect Peace, Rest

Truth, Light, Love 

And 

Eternal Life!

Is Holding On To Anger ... Remember Cain

Jealousy, Hatred

Pride ... Remember Lucifer

Greed ... Remember Judas

Covetousness, Selfishness, 

Bitterness

Lying To God ... Remember Ananias And Sapphira

Grudge, Unforgiveness

Malice

Vile Thoughts And Speech 

And

The Practice Of Witchcraft ... Remember King Saul 

HonestlyWorth The PriceWhich Must 

And 

Will Be Paid!?! 

Be Ye Warned ...

Grieving Away The Holy Spirit 

Is 

A Process ... A Downward Spiral 

To Eternal Separation From Almighty God! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Do Not Permit Petty To Turn Putrid:

All Rotten Things Get Binned And Burned!

 

Do Not Chase Holy Angels Out Of Your Home 

Or The Holy Spirit From Your Life 

When The Humble Prayer Of A Contrite Heart 

Can Turn Sorrow To Joy 

And

Hurt To Healing! 

Be Wise!

Your Personal Salvation Was Purchased At Infinite Cost

With The Blood Of The Innocent Lamb Of God

Jesus Christ The Lord

And

Not With Perishable Gold And Silver! 

Please Consider What The Shedding Of 

The Innocent Blood Of His Only Begotten Meant 

... Still Means ... 

To Our Heavenly Father 

And

Choose To Value Yourself Accordingly! 

The Lord Christ Did Not Make A Mistake 

When He WillinglyChose To Die

To Personally Save You ... And Me, Too! 

Peace With Almighty God

Is

Perfectly Precious! 

Pride Is For Fools!

It Would Do Us All Well To Remember That 

Almighty God Rules In The Affairs Of Man! 

It Would Serve Us All Well To Ask Ourselves: 

"Is What I Am Contemplating Doing 

Pleasing To The Eternal God!?!" 

Before 

We Daringly Step Out On The Rotting Limb That 

Is 

The Carnal Life Of Man! 

Beloved, 

A Fool And His Money Are Easily Parted 

And So, Too

Is Man's Life And Peace 

When We Act As Though We Made Ourselves 

And 

Speak As Though Our Fiery Tongues Are Bibles 

And 

Our Foul Words Are Truth 

Which Must Be CoSigned By The Lord Of Life 

Who, When We Bark Our Desires At Him, Asks: 

"How High!?!" 

Wheel ... And Come Again! 

We Know Nothing! 

We Cannot Do Anything 

Without The Breath Of God In Our Nostrils 

And

It Is Certain That Our Penchant For Sinning 

Does Not Profit Us In Our Decision-Making! 

Please Be Wary Of Willing-Sinner Self 

And

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation 

And 

Stop Denying The Power Of 

And

The Power That 

Is 

Jesus Christ The Lord ... The King ... The Final Judge! 

We Need Our Creator, Savior, Redeemer 

And 

Forever Faithful Friend 

And

High Priest 

And

Advocate Aka Attorney! 

Let's Choose To Call Upon Jesus Christ

So That He Will Teach Us 

And

We, Willing, Will Learn 

Great And Mighty Things About Which 

We Know Not One Thing! 

Putrid Pride 

Is 

For Fools Who Don't Know God: 

Be Humble Aka Humble Yourself

And

The Great God ... In His Way

And

In His Holy Time

Will Assuredly Lift You Up! 

Peace Be Unto You!

The Unimpeachable Truth!

It Is Very Easy To Say: 

"Lord, Lord!" 

And 

Quote The Bible Chapter And Verse

And 

Point At People And Call Them Unclean Spirits 

And

Say That We Know The Living God Personally 

And

Are Blessed Of God 

Because 

We Have Earthly Prosperity! 

Problem Is That 

Many Of Us Who Name The Name 

And 

Have The Possessions 

And 

Point The Fingers 

Unwisely Forget That It Is Jesus Christ The Lord

The Creator Of Us All 

- Who Knows The Inner-Most Workings Of Our Deceitful Hearts - 

Who Is The Judge Of All Flesh 

And Is

The God Who Owns Everything On This Planet! 

We Are Mere Stewards 

And 

We Must Give A Full Accounting To Almighty God Of 

How, Why, When, Where, What 

And 

Upon Whom We Utilized The Resources 

He Entrusted To Us! 

Beloved, 

Talk Is Cheap And Hot Air Blows Dry Dust! 

We May Sing Hymn-A-Ton

Telling Of Our Goodness And Greatness 

But

The Heavenly Record Bears The Unimpeachable Truth! 

Let's Not Be Trifling And Arrogant 

And 

Judge People By Our Self-Made, Cost-Nothing, Yardstick! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

By The Fruit Of Our Doings ... Our Actions

We Are Known 

And

The Lord's Law Of Ten Commandments Condemns Us All! 

A Change Must Come ... 

Let's Elevate Our Standards 

And 

Judge Righteous Judgments 

And

Humbly Start With Our Own Selves!

If We Don't Tell The Truth About Our Own Selves

There Is No Way That

We Will Speak The Truth About Another Person!

Walk Softly Before The Eternal God! 

Perfect Peace

Is

A Present From The Lord Christ

Our High Priest!

REST: Under His Wings!

 

Think About It ... 

We Have Choices To Make 

And

Chances To Make Choices ... Good Or Bad! 

We, Each, Have The Choice To Look Around 

And 

Be Distressed By What Is Going Around Us 

Or To Look Inward 

And 

Be Completely Depressed About Our Soul's Estate 

Or To Look Up To Christ Jesus 

And

Cast Our Every Care

- Inward And Outward -

Upon Him Who Is The Great And Able Burden-Bearer

And 

Be Entirely At Rest 

Experiencing His Perfect Peace! 

You May Well Say ...

"That's Too Simple, Too Easy! 

It Can't, Won't, Shouldn't Work!" 

Beloved, 

It Is Because It Is Too Easy 

And 

Shouldn't Work That 

It Does Work! 

He Who Prescribes This Method 

Is 

The Very One Who Makes It Possible To Work 

By Giving Unto Us Faith To Trust Him 

To Work Things Out ... For Our Best Good! 

Be Ye Warned ... 

When You Give Your Burden To The Lord Christ

Let It Go Completely 

And

Leave It In His Holy Hands! 

The Lord Desires Our Bold

Willing

Unerring Trust In Him! 

Please Dare To Trust The Lord To Take Care Of You 

Because 

It Is He, Alone, Who Makes All Wrong Things Right

Turns Darkness To Light 

And

Makes Beauty Out Of Ashes! 

Only The Creator God Can Make The Impossible Happen! 

Make Your Peace With The God Holy

Lean On The Everlasting Arms

And

Shelter In Our Abiding Place 

Under His Wings! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Keep Close To The Lord Christ!

Worldly Wisdom Says:

 

"Keep Your Friends Close

And

Your Enemies Closer!" 

Jesus Christ 

Is 

Our Forever Friend 

And

Satan

Is 

Our Forever Enemy! 

Jesus Christ Creates, Recreates

Saves, Redeems, Revives

Regenerates, Cleanses, Helps, Heals, Blesses

Uplifts And Elevates! 

Satan Deceives And Destroys! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous Says: 

Draw Near To Me

And

I Will Draw Near To You 

And

Be Your Shepherd

Lord, God And Kind King

And

Lead You Gently Safely Home

To Life Everlasting! 

Satan The Damned Says: 

"You Are As God! 

Do What Feels Good! 

Do You! 

Rest When You're Dead!" 

Beloved, 

Worldly Wisdom 

Is 

Not Wise 

And Is Not

For Anyone Who Has Taken The Hand Of Jesus Christ 

And 

Is Living Under The Banner Of The Blessed Hope! 

The Way Of Our Forever Friend Does Not Include Self

Selfishness

Self-Serving Or Self-Aggrandizement! 

Please Stay Away From Satan

The Enemy Of Your Soul

The Accuser Of Our Brethren

Who Wants You To Be As He Is: 

Homeless, Stateless, Condemned 

And 

Damned! 

Satan Wants You Dead! 

Jesus Christ Purchased Everlasting Life For You 

With Everlasting Love! 

Stick Close To King Jesus 

And 

Live Forever! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Covetous Or Contented!?!

We, Each, Have The Opportunity 

To Fill The Garden Of Our Mind With Goodness 

Or With Gripes And Griefs! 

We May Choose To Be Disinterested In The Things Of God 

And 

Also Totally Ungrateful For The Myriad Blessings That 

We Continually Receive 

Or We May Be Thankful For Grace 

And

Grateful That There Is Glory To Share ... To Come! 

We May Covet The Blessings Which Others Receive 

And

Despise The Great Gifts That The Good Lord Bestows Upon Us 

Or We May Boisterously Bless God 

And 

Grow Up Gracefully! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Who Bids Us To Faithfully Serve Him 

Provides For And Protects Us

Comforts And Corrects Us

And

Teaches And Tests Us

But 

He Never Tempts Us!

Our Dear Lord Leads And Loves Us

But

He Never Lures Us Into Folly 

Or Lulls Us Into A False Sense Of Security: 

We Can Openly Trust His Kind And Giving Heart! 

It's A Fact ... 

We Have No Viable Reason 

To Doubt The Pure And Holy Love Of The Lord Christ

So Dare To Remember Where He Has Brought You From 

And

Never Forget What He Has Done

Is Doing 

And

Will Do For You ... Personally! 

Choices, Chances, Changes ...

Dare To Dig Up The Plantings Of Gripes And Griefs 

And 

Dare To Plant Love, Joy, Hope

Faith, Purity, Peace

Temperance

And 

Goodness! 

Remember, Remember 

Don't Ever Forget ... 

We Eat What We Grow 

And 

We Are What We Eat! 

Do You Know What's Eating You!?! 

Be Wise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation:

Choose To Grow Only What 

Is 

Everlastingly Beneficial! 

Peace Be Unto You!

Liars Are Abomination To God!

A Liar 

Is 

A Covetous False-Oath-Taking Thieving Murdering False God! 

We May Hide Our Valuables From A Common Thief 

But

From A Liar

Only The Living God Can Save Us! 

The Prideful Covetous Liar ... Lucifer

Started War In Heaven! 

The Covetous, Vengeful, Hate-Filled Liar ... Satan

Brought Death To The Human Race! 

The Irredeemable, Condemned, Adversary Of Souls

The Father Of Lies Aka Satan The Damned

Caused Jesus Christ's Death On Calvary 

In The Hope Of Destroying All Of Mankind 

By Destroying Our Only Hope Of Redemption

Of Returning To Our Heavenly Father's House Of Hope, Help And Healing 

Where We ... Made Whole ... Shall Utter "Hallelujah!" 

As Our Greatest Praise! 

Beloved, Be Warned! 

No Liar

No One Who Loves Manufacturing 

And 

Selling Aka Broadcasting Lies

Has Any Portion In The Kingdom Of God! 

Tread Softly

And 

Walk In Wise Ways

And

Do Not With Presumption 

Tell Yourself That 

You Only Tell "White" Lies 

Or Lies To Save Yourself From Bodily Harm! 

If You Are Doing This

Heads Up:

You're A Liar 

And

You Are Harming Your Own Soul 

And 

Doing It Wittingly ... With Knowledge: Stop It! 

Lies Always Dig A Cheap, Shallow, Foundation 

And 

Construct A Wide, Tall And Showy Palace 

Which Always Spectacularly Falls! 

Know The Truth ... 

We Are Blessed Of The Eternal God Who Freely Gives Grace ... Ever Sufficient For Our Needs

And

By Innocent Blood

Promises Surpassing Glory! 

So Dare To Claim The Promise

And

Dare To Be Bold By Faith

And

Dare To Wrap Yourself In Saving Truth 

And 

Never, Ever, Worry About The Disintegrating Tissue Of Lies: 

Liars Die! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Choose To Live By, For 

And 

In Truth That 

Is 

Eternal

And

Be Eternally Blessed!

Peace With The Everlasting Father

Is

Promised ... And Assured! 

You Are Not Your Own!

See!

It Is In Black And White: 

We Are Not Our Own! 

Every One Of Us ... Born Of A Woman 

Must ... At The Appointed Time

Give An Accounting Unto The Eternal God 

Before Jesus Christ The Lord

The King

The Judge! 

Beloved, 

We Have Free-Will 

And

The Freedom To Choose 

How To Live Our Own Lives! 

We May Do Whatever We Want To Do 

But

We Have No Say In How Long We May Do It! 

Jesus Christ Has Asked Us To Choose To Serve Him 

And

He Has Given Unto Us Clear Information 

Telling Us Why It Is To Our Eternal Profit 

To Follow, Serve, Worship, Pray To 

And 

Praise And Love Him! 

Our Dear Savior Has Also Plainly Explained To Us 

Why It Is Not To Our Benefit To Not Serve Him 

But

He Has Left The Decision-Making In Our Hands! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous ... Our Redeemer ... Our Friend

Will Never Force Us To Serve Him 

And

Nobody ... Human Or Malevolent Spirit

Can Force Us To Not Worship Him! 

Be Wise ... 

Anything That We Choose To Do

And 

Actively Do ... Good Or Bad

Is 

Our Own Decision 

So Never Let It Be Said That:

"The Devil Made Me Do It!" 

Or 

"Almighty God

Could Have ... Should Have

Stopped Me From Doing That!" 

Face Facts ...

It Is Your Life To Live

And 

It Is Your Choice As To How To Live Your Life

And

It Is Your Own Personal Decision

On Where Is To Be Your Preferred Final Destination! 

The Choices Are Clear So Please Choose Wisely: 

Destination-Wail In Hell 

Or 

Destination-Rejoice In Heaven!

No One Will Make Your Decision For You! 

Please, I Beseech Us All 

Cooperate With Christ

And

Choose Eternal Life With Christ 

And 

Be Ever Blessed!

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

You Were Not Bought Back From Death

With Either Silver Or Gold

But

With The Innocent Blood Of Jesus Christ

The Lamb Of God

- The Joy And The Hope Of Every Man, Woman And Child -

Who Infinitely Loves Your Personally ... Intimately!

WINDS OF CHANGE: How Firm Is Your Foundation!?!

If You Do Not Have An Anchor For Your Soul

- A Firm Foundation For Your Faith - 

Know Of A Surety That You Cannot Rest

Be At Rest 

Or Rest Easy! 

Think About It ... 

You're In The Stormy Sea Aka Living Your Life 

And 

The Winds Of Change 

- Pushing Every Man-Made Doctrine - 

Are Blowing Some'hing Fierce! 

Your Stomach Is In Your Throat! 

Your Head Is In One Hand! 

Your Ears Are Ringing! 

Your Thoughts Are In A Whirl! 

Your Legs Are Like Jelly! 

Your Feet Are Slipping 

And

Your Empty Hand Can't Find Anything Solid To Hold On To! 

You've Been Dialling The Fleeting-Things Number For Prayer: 

The Line Is Dead 

And

Your Tricked-Out Sea-Faring Conveyance 

Is 

Going Left, Right, Up, Down And Sideways 

But

Not Where You Want To Go! 

Suddenly ... In A Moment Of True Clarity

You Cry Out: 

"Lord Jesus, Please Save Me Now!" 

Beloved, 

Our Anchor Holds Safely In Jesus Christ 

Who Is The Truth

And

Our Safe Harbor ... The Rock Of Ages! 

Times, Attitudes, Desires 

And 

Needs Change 

But

The Word Of God ... The Light Of Life

Stands Forever! 

Brethren, Beloved

I Beseech Us All To Dare To Know 

And

Faithfully Trust Him Who Knows You Intimately

And

Loves You Better Than You Know And Love Yourself 

And

Knows Your End From Your Beginning 

And

All Points In Between! 

You Are Not Your Own

And

You Are Not Alone!

Build On The Rock!

Do Not Do What Lucifer Did!

We Are Not Animals Who Live By Instinct 

Ever Ready To Turn On A Dime 

And 

Attack Others On The Least Provocation! 

We Are Human ... Thinking, Reasoning ... Beings 

Created In The Image Of The Holy God 

And 

Made After His Likeness! 

Beloved, 

We Were Not Created To Ever Know Evil 

But

Here We Are! 

We Were Not Created To Tell Lies

Indulge In Deceit

Hurt Others For Fun And Self-Gratification

Cheat, Steal

Bear False-Witness

Covet

Commit Murder

Worship According To Our Feelings

Dishonor Our Parents

Set Up Idols

Denigrate The Living God 

Or Experience Death 

But

Here We Are! 

Our Lord Christ Has Invited Us

- With A Can't-Be-Canceled Invitation -

To Come And Reason With Him

Petition Him

And

Talk With Him 

At The Throne Of Grace ... Of Unmerited Favor

So That We May Be Taught Of The Almighty God 

To Know, Understand, Accept 

And

Do What Is Good And Right 

And 

Confers Upon Us The Eternal Blessing! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

Do Not Do What Lucifer Did 

And 

Set Up Your Own Kingdom 

In Opposition To The Living God In Your Mind! 

If You Do This Base Thing

You Will Reap What Lucifer-Satan Reaped

Is 

Reaping 

And 

Will Reap ... Eternal Death! 

Let's Learn From Others' Mistakes 

Without Having To Endure Their Experiences

In Our Own Flesh

In Order To "Understand!" 

Be Wise, Brethren

Unto Your Own Soul's Sure 

And 

Secure Salvation:

Time Is Getting Shorter!

The Savior

- By The Holy Spirit Of Truth -

Is

Waiting To Enter Your Heart:

Let Him In!

Ebenezer

When We Look At What Is Happening In Other People's Lives 

And

When We Observe The Hash, The Mess, That 

Some People Are Making Of Their Own Lives

We Would All Do Well To Humbly Say: 

"There ... But For The Grace

Of 

The Living God

I Go!" 

It Is Quite Easy For Us To Go "Tsk, Tsk!" 

And 

Be All High-Minded 

And 

Top-Lofty 

When We Are Looking Down On Others 

But

We Need To Seriously, Thankfully, Consider 

And

Be Grateful For Jesus Christ The Lord 

Who Is Looking Down Upon Us All ... In Love ... All Of The Time! 

Beloved, 

A Saint Of God And Christ

Is 

A Reforming Sinner 

Walking As One Being Sanctified ... Set Apart

Rising Up Higher And Higher 

As He Or She

Is 

Headed Toward Beautiful Beulah Land! 

Let Us All Remember That 

The Journey Is Not For The Swift

The Battle Is Not To The Strong

And 

The Crown Is Not For The Worldly-Wise And Wealthy: 

Life Eternal 

Is 

For The Over-Comer

The Saint Whose Life 

Is 

Lived By, For, And In Jesus Christ! 

Let Us Not Be Proud And Arrogant: 

Be Humble And Wise! 

Let Us Humble Ourselves Under The Mighty Hand Of God 

So That He Will Lift Us Up ... At The Appointed Time! 

Let Us, By Almighty God's Great Grace

Give A Helping Hand To Others 

Even As The Hand Of God 

Is 

Moment By Moment Helping Us! 

We Have Hope, Help, Health, Healing 

And 

A Home In Heaven 

In Him Who Hears And Cares For Us: 

Let Us Pray And Plead

And

Hear And Obey

And

Endure All Things For Christ Jesus ... Until The End 

As We Believe In The Promises That Cannot Fail! 

Let Us Walk In His Light ... The Light Of Life

As He Leads Us To The Land Of No Night! 

Peace Be Upon You

As You Rest In Christ Jesus! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: You-Juice OR True-Juice!?!

 

We Consider Ourselves Capable To Take Care Of Ourselves 

And

Naively Forget That There Is A "But!" 

As Thus Says The Word Of The Living God

We Are Mortal

Made A Little Lower Than The Angels 

And, Therefore

We Have Limitations! 

We Forget That We Are Sinners By Nature 

And, Therefore

Have Spiritual, Physical And Emotional Needs 

And

Because Of Sin

And 

Our Need For Christ's Purchased-For-Us Salvation

We Need To Be Constantly Vigilant 

As Regards Our Surroundings 

And

About Whom We Permit To Be A Part Of Our Circle! 

Beloved, 

Never Forget That 

Jesus Christ Had A Judas In His Circle! 

Also, Please Remember That 

Our Greatest Enemy 

Is 

The Enemy ... Within! 

Self 

Is 

Always A Sinner

And

Self Will Never Be Humble, Faithful, Just

Loving, Kind 

Or True ... To You! 

Self 

Is 

An Agent Of Satan 

And

A Cultivated, Nurtured, Well-Fed Self 

Is

Always Going To Destroy Its Host 

Aka You, Me, We ... Who Refuse To Permit The Savior

- By The Holy Spirit's Working - 

To Renew, Reform

And 

Regenerate Us In His Image

In His Likeness! 

Invite Jesus Christ In

And

Get Rid Of Self

Get Rid Of Sin

And

Be Rid Of Satan!

Self Is You-Juice! 

Salvation Is True-Juice! 

Self Is Death: 

Salvation Is Life! 

Choose Life! 

The Promised Peace of God

Is

Perfect!
