BUYING FORGIVENESS: The Living God Isn't Into Indulgences!

Almighty God's

Gift Of Forgiveness

Is

Free

(For The Asking)

To Me And To Thee!

There Was A Time 

When It Was Real Big Business In The Roman Church 

For People To Purchase An Indulgence Aka Leniency

- Forgiveness ... If You Will -

For Committing The Sin Of Their Choosing! 

Today We Have Those Among Us 

Who Offer Up Prayers Of Repentance 

To Their Idea Of The Living God 

Before

Going Out And Embracing Iniquity 

Aka Planned Sin! 

Neither Course Of Action Helps The Individual 

Nor Pleases Our King

The Judge Of All Flesh! 

Beloved, 

The Living God Is Not A Man Aka A Liar 

And

There Is No Darkness In Him At All That 

He Would Indulge Aka Overlook, Dismiss

And

Be Participant In Our Rank, Sinful, Disrespectful

Condescending, Devilish, Behavior 

As Conceived In Satan's Black Heart 

To Work Our Destruction! 

"Thou Shalt Not ...!" 

Is 

The Yellow Card Of Caution! 

"Thou Shalt Surely Die!" 

Is 

The Red Card Of Death! 

Get Real ...

Playing Truth Or Dare With The All-Seeing

All-Knowing

Ever-Present

Eternal, Holy, God 

Who Is The Truth 

Is 

A Game For Fools 

Who Are Brain-Washed ... By Personal Choice 

Into Believing That Finite Humans 

Can "Play" The Eternal Only Wise God! 

Let's Raise Our Standards ...

Please Commit To Praying 

And 

To Reading The Word Of Saving Truth 

And

To Daily Confessing 

And 

Repenting Of All Known Sin! 

Anything Else 

Is 

A Waste Of Time And Effort 

As It Only Raises One's Personal Stock Of Fuel 

For The Fires Of Hell:

Diligently Seek Almighty God's Goodness, Grace 

And 

Presently Available Mercy! 

Deny The Liar: 

Honor The Lord Jesus Christ! 

Peace!

Sin

Is

A Reproach

To Every People!

DOWN-PAYMENT ON ETERNITY: There's Not Another Like Christ Jesus!

No Committed Christian Can Say

- With The Straight Face Of Truth - 

"I Am Living For The Here And The Now!" 

Beloved, 

If We Are Living 

With Our Every Hope Pinned On The Unending Acquisition Of 

And 

The Constant Anxiety Over Things Temporal Aka Earthly

Then We Might As Well Be Bold Enough 

To Eject Our Dear Savior From Our Lives 

And

Bluntly Invite Satan And His Demons To Set Up Shop 

And 

Take Up Residence In Our Comfy Chair

Our Warm Bed

And 

The Good Seat At The Head Of Our Dinner Table 

Because

Compromise, Rationalizing

Fault-Finding, Lying

Doubt, Treachery

Misery, Witchcraft, Mayhem

And 

Murder Most Foul

Will Become Our Constant Companions! 

Peace ... Expensively Purchased

Will Do A Powder And Blow Away! 

Rest Will Be Non-Existent! 

Beauty Will Be A Dinner-Box At A Horse Race! 

Truth Will Be A Desert ... No Oasis

And

Dear Faith

Provided For Our Daily, Personal, Use 

Will Be As A Still-Birth! 

Living For Jesus Christ 

Is 

Living By Faith In The Future Fulfillment Of 

Promises Made 

And

With The Gift Of Our Comforter

The Holy Spirit Of Truth

Given, Acknowledged, Appreciated 

And

Utilized As The Guaranteed 

And

Received 

And

Accepted Down-Payment! 

Faith Is Not Eye-Sight 

And

Living Now For Now 

Is 

Calling His Evilness, Good Brother! 

We Don't Want To Do That 

Because

There Is Not Another Savior, Brother

Father, Or Friend To The End 

Like Our Sweet Jesus! 

Peace!

Arm-Candy For Satan OR Heart-Home For Jesus Christ!?!

Why Would You Want A "Savior" 

Who "Loves" You Enough To Hurt You 

And 

Desperately Wants To See You Dead 

In Trespasses And Sins!?! 

You Know You Wouldn't! 

Beloved, 

We Should All Whole-Heartedly Desire The Savior

The Lord Jesus Christ

Who So Loves Us That He Went Ahead 

And 

Died The Accursed Death On The Cross Of Calvary

To Save Us From Sin's Damnation! 

Think About The Distinction! 

Who Else Is Saying That They Love You!?! 

To Whom Are You Committing To Eternally Love!?! 

Is This Being The Lover Of Your Soul 

Purchased From Sin, Death, The Grave, And Hell!?! 

Are You Permitting Yourself To Be Arm-Candy For The Fake

The Wannabe God

The God-Fraud

The Father Of Lies 

To Be Suckered, Sullied, Scrambled, And Scorched!?! 

Thieves Come Only To Steal

And

To Joyfully Destroy!

Are You ... Body, Mind, And Spirit

Loved, Sheltered, Protected 

And

Covered By The Innocent Blood

And

Blessedly Headed For The Happy Home 

In Highest Heaven Above!?! 

Home Is Where The Heart Is!

Do You Know How You Are Standing!?! 

Do You Even Care!?! 

Think, Think, Think ...  

Are You "Living" Life With A "Lover" 

Who Holds You Through Doubt And Disbelief

Guilt And Fear

And 

Lack Of Faith In The Holy One!?! 

Are You Loving 

The Lover With The Greatest Love Of All

Who Offers You The Righteous White Robe 

And

The Gold Over-Comer's Crown

The Gold Harp

The New Name

A Place In The Father's House

A Plot Of Land To Build Your Own Country Home

And 

Eagle's Wings ... As Lightning Transport

To Nimbly Get Around The Universe Of God!?! 

Please Choose 

To Take The Eternal God At His Living, Holy, Word 

And

Dare, Boldly Dare, To Test The Spirits 

The Suitors For Your Loving Devotion!

Hurtful Love 

Is 

Burning Hatred! 

Holy Love 

Is 

Perfect Peace! 

Jesus Christ ... The Shepherd Of Rest

Is 

Peace 

Is 

Love 

And

He Always Saves!

 

Jesus Christ ... The King Of Glory

Is 

The Captain Of Our Salvation

And

To Him ... Alone

We Should Our Hearts Release

So That From Sin, Death, The Grave

And

Burning Hell

We Shall Forever Be Relieved!

He Forgets Not His Own!

He Sits High On The Eternal Throne!

His People Do Not Walk Alone!

Soon He Will Take Us To The Heavenly Home! 

Peace! 

THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST: No Immortal Sinners!

When The Almighty God Made The Judgment 

To Drive Man Out Of The Garden Of Eden

It Was Because Adam And Eve Had Gone Against Counsel 

And 

Common Sense 

And

Had Sinfully Eaten Of The Fruit Of The Tree Of 

The Knowledge Of Good And Evil 

Which Gave Them What They Should Never Have Known 

... And ... 

To Stop Them 

From Thereafter Eating From The Tree Of Life 

And

Becoming Immortal Sinners! 

The Lord Jesus ... By Whom We Live And Breathe

And 

Have Our Very Being

Made His Judicial Pronouncement 

And

The Father Of Lies ... Satan The Damned

Made His Deceptive Announcement That 

Man Has An Immortal Soul 

Aka The Flesh Dies 

But 

"The Soul" Lives Forever! 

Beloved, 

Beware Of The Great Deception! 

Our Creator God ... Jesus Christ The Lord

The King

Our Only Savior 

And 

Soon-Returning Redeemer

Breathed Into Adam And Eve's Nostrils

- Their Nose Holes - 

The Breath Of Life From The Living God 

And

They Each Became Living Souls! 

Remove The Breath Of Life From The Eternal God

And 

Man ... Sinner, And Saint ... Dies

      Dead

                Rotten And Forgotten! 

The Gospel Truth ... 

There Is No Little Being That 

Escapes Through Man's Nostrils 

And 

Instantly Heads To Either Heaven Or Hell 

And 

AvoidsJesus Christ's Future Judgment! 

Let No One Fool You ... 

The Lord Jesus Christ 

Is 

Bringing His Rewards With Him 

So Let's Do Ourselves A Solid 

And 

Let Hollywood's Professional Liars

And 

The Lying-For-Profit Churchmen 

Cook In Their Own Stew Of Damnable Deceit! 

Brethren, Beloved, 

According To Your Work Done In Your Flesh

So Shall Be Your Reward Aka Your Pay-Check! 

With That Made Plain Even For The Blind Man

Please Believe The Living Word Of The Holy God

The Giver And Sustainer Of Your Life!

 

Every Human Being Reaps Aka Collects 

The Valid Proof Of His Labor Aka His Efforts! 

The Living God Is Not Mocked

By Either The Rich Or The Poor

The Free Or The Slave

The Prime Minister, President

Prince, Pope, Pastor, Priest, Politician

Or

The Purveyor Of Flesh!

Peace!

Bow The Knee

 

When We Were Children 

And

For Whatever Reason 

We Had Been Caused To Suffer A Chastisement 

And

Showed Our Grand Displeasure At 

"The Injustice Of It All!" 

The Elders Had The Perfect Riposte For Us:

"Fix Your Face

Or I Will Fix It For You!"

Oh, The Horror! 

Now Can You Imagine That We ... Mere Mortals

Have The Temerity To Want To Tell Our Maker

Lord, God, King 

And

Judge 

To Fix His Face When He Has Just Cause 

To Chastise Us For Our Base Folly!?! 

Beloved, 

We Are A Hard-Headed People 

Who Dare To Tempt The Lord! 

Have You Considered What Would Happen To Us 

If 

The Lord Of Life Caused Us To Feel 

The Dread Effects Of His Hot Displeasure!?! 

There Is Nothing That Our Lord Christ Does That 

Is 

Done In Vain! 

The Lord Chastises His Children 

And

If For Some Strange Reason 

You Are Walking Wild And Unfettered

You May Want To Check Your Birth Certificate 

Because 

The Lord Chastises Those Whom He Loves

Aka His Children! 

No Chastisement 

Means You're A Bastard Child 

And

As Such That Means That 

You Have No Inheritance 

Or Right To An Inheritance 

With The Family Of God! 

Dear Ones, 

We Owe The Lord Everything 

So Let Us Be Wise 

And

Permit The Lord Christ To Direct Our Paths!

We Did Not Make Ourselves

And

We Cannot Save Ourselves! 

Humble Pie Tastes Better Than Dirty Pudding! 

Bow The Knee! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: YOUR PICK: The Lamb's Scroll Or The Goat's Roll

The Great Lie Being Sold As The Great Truth 

In This Loosey-Goosey Liberal Age 

In Which We Are Walking 

Is 

That The Exceeding Broad Laws Of Almighty God 

Which Cover Every Aspect Of Our Lives 

Are Too Restrictive 

And 

Can Be Traded In At The Fast-Fashion Store Where 

I-Feel

My-Truth

I-Think

I-Need

I-Want

And 

Do-As-I-Please 

Are The "It" Brands! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Beware

Be Aware

Be Wary 

And 

Be Weary Of The Wisdom Of The Arch-Fiend 

Whose Chronic Case Of The I-Will's 

Led To The First Eviction Case In The Universe! 

The Eye-Full Willfulness Of Satan Deceived Eve 

And

Caused Disobedience In Adam 

And

Led To The First And Only Eviction From Eden

- The Garden Of God - 

Which Led To The Gully-Washer Of The Blowout-Eviction Of 

The Human Race During Noah's Flood 

Where Only The Eight True Believers' Souls Were Preserved 

In The Purpose-Built Ark Of Safety! 

We Are Now Heading Toward 

The Moving Event Of The Ages! 

Are You Getting Ready!?!

The Saints Of God And Christ 

Will Be Moving Up To Glory 

And

The Bold, Unrepentant, Sinners 

Will Be Burnt Out-Dispossessed From Existence! 

How Are You Presently Standing!?!

Will You Dare To Think For Yourself 

And 

Be On The Lamb's Book Of Life Scroll 

And

Wear The White Robe Of Righteousness 

Or

Be Group-Think Fashionable 

And

Be On The Goat's Roll Rolling To Eternal Damnation!?! 

You Are A Free-Will Agent By God-Given Right!

You Have Right To Make Your Own Decision

For Or Against Eternal Life

So Be Truly Wise For Your Own Self: 

The Lord's Truth Is Not Pie In The Sky By And By!

Salvation Is Available Free To Everyone In Every Town! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Lead Us Gently, Dear Savior! + PRAYER: Help Us To Walk Wisely!

We Sing With Relish 

"Savior, Like A Shepherd Lead Us 

Much We Need Thy Tenderest Care ...!" 

Are The Words Real In Our Hearts 

Or 

Are They Just Ink Stains On Nice Paper!?! 

Singing For Singing's Sake

Does Nothing For The Traveller On His Journey Home:

We Are Pilgrims And Strangers In A Strange Land!

We Are To Confidently Sing What We Believe 

And 

We Should Gratefully Give Praise And Thanks That 

Our Dear Savior Marks The Path 

And 

Makes It Plain For Us To Faithfully Follow After Him 

Without Fear 

And 

With Loving Fervor! 

By Contrast

Satan The Damned Slitheringly Follows After Us

Aka Dogs Our Steps 

Wherever We Are Disobediently Going!

 

Goat-Herders Follow 

Aka Chase After Disobedient, Known Own-Way, Goats 

Who Of Themselves Decide 

Where Their Shepherd Will Faithfully Follow After Them! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ ... The Only One Righteous

Is 

Our Shepherd Of Rest! 

Our Blessed Jesus ... Out-Front And Purposeful

Absolutely Knows Where He Is Leading His People

The Blessed Sheep Of His Verdant Pasture! 

Our Beloved Jesus

Is Not 

A Day's-Man Aka A Rent-A-Shepherd 

Who Bails On His Charges When Troubles Come! 

He Makes The Sure Way Safe 

And 

The Safe Way Sure! 

He Forgets Not His Own

Who Follow After Him By Choice!

No Paper Maps With Uncertain Marks Are Needed 

And 

The Every-Which-Way GPS System Of Fallen Man

Is 

Effectively Useless! 

The Only Way Is The Lord's Way To Surpassing Glory!

Our Jesus Christ 

Is 

The Loving Shepherd Who Also Created His Sheep

And

The Perfectly Positive Path For Our Feet

And 

The Perfect Place For Our Eternal Rest

And

We Can Never Go Astray

With Him Leading Us Gently On Our Way! 

PRAYER:

Lead Us, Heavenly Father

For

We Come In Faith, Nothing Wavering!

We Need Your Perfect Peace

And

Restorative Rest 

Your Sure Direction

Your Ready Provision

Your Able Protection

And 

Your Saving Correction! 

We Need You Now, Today!

You, Dear Lord

Are The Living Light That

Leads All Of Us Willing

To Eternal Life 

So, Please

For Undying Love

For Love Which Will Not Let Us Go

Help Us To Walk Wisely

In The Perfect Way

Which Will Never Lead Us

To Commit Sin And Be Made Ashamed!

Please Lead Us, Kindly Light

For Earth's Day Is Darkening Fast

And

We Need To Safely Reach Home

The Abode Of The Forever Blessed

Where Love Ever Lasts!

Of Our Known Sins, Father

Natural, Cultivated, And Besetting 

With The Humility Of True Repentance

With Contrite Hearts

We Confess!

Father,

We See Our Need

Of

Your Sure Salvation

And

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

We, Bankrupt, Plead!

Please Forgive Us

And

Bless Us

And

Come For Us Soon!

We Love You!

AMEN!!! 

Working Wings And Staying Power!

There Is Not A Single Human Being 

Who Does Not Desire A Carefree 

Painless

Joy-Filled

Comfortable Existence! 

Problem Is That 

Desire And Reality Don't Walk The Same Line! 

Even In The Household Of Faith 

Where The Members Are Heading Toward

 The Realm Of The Forever-Blessed

Trouble Is On Every Side 

But

With A Significant Difference! 

Beloved, 

As A Child Of The Great King

Trouble For Us Places Us In The Arena Of 

Growth In Grace 

Where Mercy For Me And Thee 

Is 

Ever In Attendance Doing Yeoman Service! 

Absolutely Nothing Happens To The Child Of God

Without The Lord's Knowledge 

And 

Consent 

And

We Will All Do Ourselves A Favor 

To Remember And Accept 

That All Things Work For Our Good

That We Are Not Alone

That The Holy Spirit Is Our Comforter

That We Are Protected By Holy Angels Excelling In Strength 

And

Our Father Hears And Answers Our Prayers 

Even If The Answer 

Is 

"No! 

Don't Ask Again! 

My Grace Is Sufficient For Thee!"

Remember, Dear Ones, That 

You Must Go Through 

To Come Through! 

Put Another Way

Bread-Dough Risen Won't  Cook-Through 

And 

Hold Its Shape

And 

Be Appetizing Smelling

And 

Delicious Looking 

Without Being In The Hot Box! 

Emerging From Struggle Aka The Heat Of Affliction

Produces Working Wings 

And 

Staying, Lifting, Carrying Power! 

We Must Be Tried In The Fire Of Affliction 

To Be Able To Then Live With Our God Almighty 

Who Is Consuming Fire 

In Glory-Land! 

Hold On! 

Peace!

Run Your Race To Enter Christ's Glory Wherein Is Everlasting Life!

In The Competitive World

The Warning Constantly Given 

Is 

"Keep Your Eye On The Prize!" 

In The Spiritual Realm Of The Forever Blessed

We Are Encouraged To 

"Run Your Race To Receive The Crown 

Which Does Not Pass Away!" 

Beloved, 

These Two Statements Speak Volumes 

If

We Are Paying Attention! 

Keep Your Eye On The Prize Suggests That 

If You Even So Much As Blink

What You're Striving For Disappears!

Forever! 

Striving To Receive The Heavenly Prize 

Is 

Absolutely Achievable 

And

That Heavenly Prize Won 

Can Never Be Given To Another Person! 

Think On These Things ... 

Earthly Princes Are Princes Until They're Not! 

Titans Of Sport, Finance, And Entertainment 

Get Dethroned! 

Unholy Priests And Pastors Get Defrocked 

And

All Of This Happens 

Because 

What They Were Holding On To

Looking Greedily Upon

Broadcasting As Their Divine Right

Was Neither Right Nor Divine! 

Unimpeachable Facts ... 

Regular People Strive And Fail! 

Flavors Of The Month Get Canceled!

Rights-Givers Get Offended 

And

Prizes Given Get Rescinded! 

Blessedly, Our Almighty God Does Not Change: 

He Makes No Mistakes! 

If You Fail To "Win" The Great Salvation

None Other Will Gain Your Crown Or Your Land! 

Your Race ... For Eternal Life

Is 

Run Against Yourself Only 

And

Is Won Or Lost By You Alone! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Do Not Let Sinful-Self 

Turn You Into A Condemned Loser! 

Please Be Very Courageous

And

Choose To Look Up To Christ Jesus 

And

Let Saving Faith Propel You To The Everlasting Prize! 

Peace With The Living God 

Is 

Perfect!

Run Your Daily Race

To Please The Eternal God

Not Fallen, Finite, Mankind!! 

Choosing To Be A Doorman In The House Of God!

To Be A Committed Christian 

Is 

To Be A Volunteer For 

And 

A Willing Servant Of Jesus Christ The King! 

You Know Upfront That 

Only The Obedient, Trusting, Faithful, Enduring Ones

With Skin In The War Against Self And Sin

Will Survive The Great Controversy 

The Battle Between Good And Evil! 

You Know That 

Your Greatest Enemies 

Will Be Those In Your Own Household! 

You Accept That 

Living For Jesus Means Dying To Self 

And 

Walking Wise On The Lonesome Road 

Without Benefit Of Earthly Support! 

You Learn To Expect Rabid Opposition! 

You Choose To Be A Doorman In The House Of God 

Than To Dwell In The Show Places Of 

Rampant Wickedness! 

You Choose, By Grace, To Be Humble 

And 

You Faithfully Practice Humility! 

You Turn Away From Pride 

And 

Showy Displays Of Excess! 

You Care About 

And 

Pray For The Many Lost And Hurting Souls 

Who Are Looking For  Part-Time Love With A High Price 

When Infinite Love 

Is 

Free And Accessible For All Mankind! 

You Rest And Are Refreshed 

In The Quiet Place Of Prayer 

And

You Are Confident In Christ 

Knowing, Expecting

And 

Grateful That 

You Are Never Alone 

Because 

You Are Walking In Unfailing Faith 

And 

Not Trusting Fickle, Deceitful, Blind Eyesight! 

Safe In The Arms Of Jesus 

Is 

Constant Comfort In Your Heart 

Because 

He Who Calls You Goes With You! 

Beloved, 

Please Keep Trusting Our Lord Christ!

Be Prayerful! 

Be Peaceful! 

Be Strong! 

And

Be Blessed! 

Go For The Living God!

Go With The Eternal God!
