Nobody Owes Us A Gift Or A Gift Of Our Choosing!

We Have Surely Lost Our Way! 

In The Name Of The Lord Jesus

Why Would We, As Committed Christians, Believe That 

A Free-Will Gift Of Almighty God 

Should Be Returned To The Sender Expressing Our Dissatisfaction 

Because 

It Is Not A Brand Name

It Is Not What We Wanted

And 

It Is Not To Our Taste Since Only Money Excites Us!?! 

Beloved, 

Yes, There Are Gifts That We May Specifically Ask The Lord For 

But

Think Carefully About All The Gifts, Benefits

And 

Blessings That We Have Received Of The Lord 

Without Our Prior Knowledge And Approval!?! 

Was Calvary A Part Of Your Desire Or Aesthetic!?! 

The Cross Was Not By Gucci 

And 

The Holy Spirit Is Not Prada! 

Dear Ones, 

If We Blindly Continue 

In The Despicable, Entitled, Attitude 

Now Being Publicly Expressed

It Is Certain That We Will Not Want Or Accept 

The Now Available Gift Of Everlasting Life! 

It Is Also Certain That We Will Also Roundly Reject 

The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit 

Because 

They Do Not Come Wrapped 

In A Warhol Or Michelangelo Hand-Drawn Wrapping Paper! 

No One Owes Us A Gift

And For Sure

Nobody Owes A Gift Of Our Own Choosing! 

The Gifts Of God Should Be To Us

"Thank You, Jesus!

Bless You, Lord, For Thinking On Me!" 

The Good And Perfect Gift From God To Us 

Is 

Good And Perfect, As Is, For Us ... Always! 

Let Us Not Behave Like Idolatrous Ingrates 

Treating The Lord's Bounty Like Hog Food! 

Let Us Gladly Accept The Best Of Heaven 

Like We Know That 

We Are The Blessed On Earth! 

Peace!

Lean On The Lord Of Love Who Loves You!

 

As Practicing, Fundamentalist Aka Bible-Believing Christians

We Should Know That The One Being That 

We May With Unimpeachable Confidence Repose Our Hopes 

And 

Have Unfaltering Trust In 

Is 

Jesus Christ The Lord 

Who Will Tell Us The Truth

Show Us The Holy Way

And 

Carry Us Safely To The Glad Day! 

From His Undying Love

Do Not Stray!

Beloved, 

We Should See

And 

We Should Know That The Strong Arm Of Man 

Is 

A Poor Weapon In A War! 

We Should Know And Accept That 

In Your Time Of Plenty 

When You Are Lady Bountiful And Lord Sharer

Everybody Is Your Best Friend 

But

In Your Time Of Dearth, Of Need

It Is You Alone With Your God! 

Dear Ones, 

Let's Be Wise For Our Own Selves 

And 

Operate As The Old Time Shop-Keepers Used To Declare: 

"Trust God:

Everybody Else Pays Cash!" 

The Lord Doesn't Lie! 

Horses Don't Fly! 

Rats Eating Onions Do Cry

And 

Enduring, Trusting, Faithful, Committed Saints Of God And Christ 

Shall Arrive At The Holy City By And By! 

Put Your Confidence In The Living God 

And 

Stop Relying On Dying Man 

Who, To Save His Own Skin, Will Readily Tell A Lie 

And

The Holy God Deftly Defy! 

Please Elevate Your Expectations: 

Raise Your Gaze By Faith To The King Of Glory! 

Peace!

You Are In The Center Questioning ... Yourself!

You Are In The Center! 

Voices Are Calling You! 

The Loud, Obnoxious Yet Hugely Compelling Voices 

Are Those Of The Careless, Wicked

And All-Around Worldly-Wise! 

The Calming, Gently Calling, Clearly Unambiguous Voice 

Is 

That Of The Only Wise God Of Grace Who Inhabits Glory! 

You Are In The Valley Of Decision 

And 

No Caller May Force You To Walk With Them! 

For Some Strange Reason, You Feel Conflicted 

And Find Yourself Questioning  Yourself: 

Do I  Stand With The Brave And Offend These Worldly-Wise 

And Known Wicked People 

Or Do I Offend My God Who Alone Is Wise

Who Provides For, Protects, And Gives Me Peace 

... Or ... 

Do I By Willfulness And Wickedness

And Practicing Evil Just Because

Basely Offend The All-Wise God 

Who Is My Soul's Desire And Salvation

And Eternal Security

In Order To Please The Worldly-Wise Amongst Whom I Live

And Who Can Daily Make My Life A Living Hell 

If I Cross Them By Using Holy Words And Doing Faith-Based Deeds!?! 

Beloved, 

This Is Not A Hard Decision To Make! 

The Worldly-Wise ... Motivated By Satan

All Have The Stench Of 

Eternal Separation From The Life-Giver Attached To Them 

Unless They Confess And Repent Of Their Known Sins! 

The All-Wise God 

Is 

Love, Light, Life

The Life-Giver

The Creator And Recreator

And 

The Fragrance Emanating From Him 

Is 

Joy, Peace, And Rest! 

He Makes Life Worth Living

Raises The Dead 

And

He Personally Loves You, And Me! 

Dear Ones, 

Flesh Will Fail! 

Faith In God Cannot Fail! 

Please Pray And Decide For Christ

And 

Physically And Spiritually Thrive! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Let Your Request Be Made Known!

We Serve The Living, Loving, Holy God Who Cannot Lie! 

By His Own Admission

He Declares That He Is The Truth! 

Out Of His Own Mouth

He Plainly Invites Us To Come Boldly Before His Throne

The Throne Of Grace

To Obtain Mercy

And 

Find Grace Aka Unmerited Favor, Aka Power ... His Gift

In Our Time Of Need! 

He Even Showed Us How To Pray! 

He Has Said That He Is The Good Shepherd

Our Refuge

Our Strength

And 

Our Strong Tower

And 

He Has Made It Abundantly Clear That 

He Cannot Change

And 

That He Loves Us, You, Me, We

With An Everlasting Love! 

He Declares That His Banner Over Us Is Love

And 

That He Is Light ... And Life

And 

The Only Way To The Eternal Father's House! 

His Name Is Prince Shiloh

The Prince Of Peace

And 

He Is Our Perfect Peace! 

Beloved, 

Today Is The Day To Choose Not To Harden Our Hearts 

But 

To Take This Holy God At His Eternal Word

And 

Using His Words

Which Are A True Transcript Of His Character

Plead For The Very Help That You Are In Need Of 

At This Very Moment! 

Let Us Pray In Faith ... Nothing Wavering

And 

Try The Lord 

Who Says That There Is Nothing Too Hard For Him To Do! 

Know The Right ... 

Our Request

His Word

His Will

His Way

Our Good

His Glory

His Timing

Our Enduring Faith: 

All Will Be Well! 

Thank You, Dear Lord! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Be Careful Little Tongue What You Say!

Humans Are  Strange Creatures! 

We Have A Penchant For Calling People Dumb

Slow, Stupid, Ignorant, Uneducated, And Backward, 

When They Do Not Immediately Grasp 

Or Understand Something That 

We Are Setting Forth For Their "Education!" 

Beloved, 

We Should Energetically Curb Our Enthusiasm In This Regard 

Because

Get This

If Almighty God Had The Same Dank Attitude Like We Do

He Would Rightly Call Us Uneducatable Ignoramuses 

For How Very Many Times He Has To Correct Us 

For Making The Exact, Same, Identical, Documented Mistake That 

Myriad Millions Of Men Have Made For Millennia 

Even Though The Right Way To Walk 

Is 

Known And Documented

And 

The Corrective Measures To Be Taken 

Are Also Known And Documented! 

Dear Ones, 

Even Though The Lord Has Made It Plain That 

He Will Not Always Strive With Mankind

He Nevertheless Leads Us Gently

And 

Corrects Us With Fatherly Love

Because 

He Well Remembers That We Are Dust

And 

Weak

But 

Also That He Gave Up His Only Begotten Son 

To Save Us From Self, Sin, And Satan

Death, The Grave 

And 

Hell! 

Should Not We Also Learn And Exercise Patience 

When Dealing With Others Less Swift 

Than We Ourselves May Be 

When We Know For Sure What It Is That We Do 

In The Plain Sight Of The Holy God!?! 

Tenderly Think Truthfully About It! 

Peace!

Can You Write A Review About Jesus Christ The Lord!?!

Everybody Is A Critic 

And

Everybody Is A Reviewer Of 

Somebody, Something, And Somewhere! 

We Are Christians Aka Ambassadors For Christ! 

As Ambassadors - 

Telling The Good News, The Gospel

The Truth About The Truth 

Who Is The Son Of God

Our Savior, Redeemer, Forever Friend

King, Lord, God, And Judge - 

We Should Be Able To Write, Record

Give A Review About The Lord Jesus Christ

Clearly Telling Who He Is To All

Who He Personally Is To Us

What He Has Done

What He Is Doing

What He Will Do

His Ability To Provide

Feed, Dress, Shelter, Comfort, Care, Correct

Teach, Lead, Guide, Carry, Lift Up, Lay Low

Rest, Refresh

And 

Raise The Dead To Life

And 

Take The Willing Home To The Father's House 

To Live In The Mansions Of The Blessed Forevermore! 

Beloved, 

Jesus Christ Saves 

And

He Is The Only Answer To All Our Questionings! 

How Would You Personally Review The Lord That 

You Claim To Love More Than Life 

To Benefit A Lost Soul Seriously Seeking Salvation

And 

The Savior Forever Blessed!?! 

Will Your Love Shine Through!?! 

Will Your Hope Be High And Holy!?! 

Will Your Longing For The Holy Hills Of Heaven Be Fully Felt!?! 

Will Your Gratitude For Grace Be Gloriously Apparent!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Please Remember Your Fervent Prayers 

Uttered By Exercised Faith! 

Review The Lord! 

Review Your Love For Christ! 

Share Your Faith! 

Call A Wandering Child Home! 

Peace!

Only Those Persons

Who Have A Real, Knowing, Relationship

With Jesus Christ The Lord

Can Write An Honest Review

Of 

Jesus Christ The Lord!

Man's Tongue Is Not The Bible!

The Narrator's Voice Is Soothing! 

The Learned, Distinguished, Published, Commentators 

Deliver Their Lines With Apparent Conviction! 

The Production Is High-Budget Smooth And Engagingly Slick! 

They Are Eagerly Discussing 

Jesus Christ's Words Concerning The Endtimes 

As Found In The New Testament Books Of 

Matthew, Mark, And Luke! 

The Research Is Apparently Thorough 

As It Covers Bible Prophecy Already Unfolded

Unfolding, And To Be Unfolded

History As Proof

And 

Scholarly Writings 

Plus 

Wishful Thinking

Willful Ignorance

And 

A Zealous Appeal To Believe And Propagate 

"Pastor, Doctor, Writer Said" 

As Holy Writ For Lazy Christians 

Who Love "Cliff Notes" Bible Readings! 

There's A Major Problem! 

By Their Own Words

Neither The Narrator Nor The Commentators 

Have Any Faith In Or Love For 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

And 

Are Selling Their Swooning Viewers 

A Hollywoodized Version Of Endtime Events 

Which Pleases The Senses 

And 

Imperils Men's Souls! 

Beloved, 

If Man Was Wise 

And 

Man's Tongue Was A Bible

The Lord Would Not Have Left Us 

The Preserved Word Of Truth! 

If Group Think Was A Thing

We Would All Share One Brain! 

Please Let Us Read 

And 

Think About The Infallible Word For Ourselves! 

Let Us Fact-Check The Gurus And Sages 

Who Are Nothing But Snake-Oil Salesmen For Dollar Bill! 

The Gurus Aren't God

And

The Sages Aren't Our Savior!

Know The Truth For Yourself 

And 

The Truth Will Set You Free! 

The Holy Spirit Is On Duty: 

Ask Him To Lead You Into All Truth

Whether It Is Pleasurable Or Problematic! 

The Lord Is Not The Liar! 

Peace!

Be Mindful To Get Rid Of The Froward Heart!

To Have A Froward Heart 

Is 

To Be Habitually Disposed ... Given Over

To Disobedience And Opposition! 

Beloved, 

Why Would Anybody Calling Themselves 

A Committed To Christ Christian 

Want To Be Labeled An Abomination 

In The Eyes Of Their Maker, God, And King 

When They Know What Opposing Almighty God 

Cost Lucifer And One-Third Of The Heavenly Host 

And

What Disobedience Cost Adam And Eve 

And, By Extension, All Of Mankind!?!

Dear Ones, 

Whether A Rebel With A Cause

Or An Opposer For Opposing's Sake

Or To Avoid Being Called Goody Two Shoes

When We Know Better We Must Avidly Seek To Do Better 

Because 

Dire, Deadly, On Up To Damnable 

Are The Known And Noted Consequences! 

In The Old Days

When One Was Known For Flapping Their Yak 

Without Reason Or Invitation

People Would Call Them A Foreign Radio Station 

For Being Where They Shouldn't Be! 

The Lord Of Life

Personally

Knows All Of His People! 

We Are Of The Household Of Faith

And 

We Should Be Learning ... And Knowing 

How To Comport Ourselves 

As Upright, God-Fearing, Humble

Obedient Children Of The Father! 

Let Us Remember Whose We Are 

And 

Be Mindful To Behave 

As The Name We Bear Commands! 

Be Humble And Holy To Reach Home! 

Delight The Lord! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Choose To Eat Grass With The True And Living God!

To Be Wicked

To Do Wickedness

Which Is To Free-Will, Knowingly, Do Evil 

Is 

Abhorrent In The Eyes Of The Holy God 

And

Anyone Who Blithely Says: 

"You Don't Know How Wicked I Can Be!" 

Is 

Boldly Branding And Condemning Themselves 

With Their Own Tongue! 

Beloved, 

Before You Choose To Be Flamboyant 

Indulging In Sin Because You Can

And 

Being Wicked And Acting Like You Are God Almighty 

Because 

You Want What You Want When You Want It

Choose Instead To Eat Grass

With The True And Living God! 

Don't Go Eating Lamb With The Father Of Lies 

Who Would Have You Believe That 

The Lord Of Life Is Loose

Is Not Looking At You

And 

Will Not Call You To Account 

For All That You Do In Your Flesh! 

As Regards The Terrible Ones Who Instill Fear 

And 

Seemingly Live Above Reproach

They And The Wicked Will Meet The Same End 

If

They Don't Confess And Repent Of Their Known Sins! 

Dear Ones, 

I Urge Us All To Never, Ever, Cover-Up, Condone, Or Conspire 

To Be Participant With The Wicked And The Terrible 

Who Would Have Us Believe That 

The Lord Is Just Like Them 

And

Is Blessing Them! 

They Lie: 

Prosperity Does Not Translate Into 

Nor Indicate Heavenly Approval! 

Let's Choose To Do Right 

Because 

It Is Right

Because 

The Lord Requires It

And 

Because We Love Our Savior Dear

And 

Choose His Will To Ever Obey! 

Live To Live Forever! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Reject Evil To Live In The Bright Presence!

We Should Be Very Afraid To Do Anything That 

Even Remotely Has The Aroma, Fragrance, Stench

Or Stink Of Wickedness ... Evil! 

Beloved, 

The Lord God Almighty Does Not Have A Lisp

A Stutter, A Stammer, A Tied Tongue

Nor Is Dumb 

So Let Us Not Play Fast And Loose 

With The Living Word Of Saving Truth 

Which Can Both Shame And Cut Us Apart 

And

Also Liberate And Elevate Us! 

Dear Ones, 

The Lord Is Not A Monster 

But 

Is Master Of All He Surveys

All That He Has Created

So We Should Hear And Heed What He Says 

Because 

He Means It

And Because 

He Loves Us

And Because 

His Holy Love Does Not Hurt Or Cause Sorrow 

And Because 

We Seek To Return His Undying Love 

By Showing Him Our Willing Obedience! 

Almighty God's Laws Are Few 

And 

Eternity Is Long! 

Sin Has A Shelf Life 

But 

Salvation Is Everlasting! 

The King Of Love Is Glorious 

But 

The Usurper, The Wannabe God

Is 

A Base And Bold Fraud! 

Please, I Beseech And Encourage Us All 

To Humble Ourselves Before The Lord 

So That We May Enjoy The Now Unimaginable Blessings 

Reserved For The Pilgrim Band Known Righteous! 

Reject Evil 

And 

Dare To Let The Lord Embrace You With Eternal Love 

To Live In His Bright Presence! 

Pray, Dear Ones! 

Pray ... And Stay Focused On 

The Goodness And Good News Of Our Lord Jesus! 

Peace!

Being With Jesus Christ The Lord ... All The Way ... Every Day!

When We Realize That Our Desire 

Is 

To Be With Our Lord Jesus Christ

We Should, Effectively, Have The Overwhelming Need 

To Change Everything About Our Then Present Lives! 

Beloved, 

When The Leaders Of The Temple 

Had  Conflict With The Disciples

They Observed The Change In Them

And 

Made Note That They Had Been With Jesus  ... The Messiah! 

Judas And The Rich Young Ruler 

Are Two Persons Who Had Been Near To The Lord 

But 

Were Left Unmoved And Unchanged 

Because 

They Wanted Things Changed To Please Them

Including The Lord Jesus! 

Dear Ones, 

The Popular "Fake It Till You Make It!" 

Will Never Work In The Life Of One 

Who Is With Jesus ... All The Way! 

We Will Make Mistakes 

But

We Have An Advocate With Our Father To Intercede For Us 

Because 

He Is For Us! 

Pretending Christians Are Avowed Sinners 

As There Can Be No Fakery In The Family Called Faithful! 

Pretense, Fakery, Deceit, And Deviltry 

Are All In The Realm Of Satan! 

Truth, Right,  Holiness, And Helpfulness 

Are In The Realm Of The Holy One! 

We Don't Change Dirty Clothing, Sin

By Putting Clean Clothing, Salvation, Over The Dirty! 

We Change By Getting Rid Of The Dirty Clothing

Washing Ourselves In The Word Of Truth

And 

Donning The Garment Of Righteousness 

Which The Lord Himself Provides! 

Let Us Dare And Truly Identify With Christ Today 

In Thought, Word, And Deed: 

Physical Change Is Going To Come ... Soon! 

Peace!

Cut Off My Nose!?!

Take A Good Long Look In Your Mirror! 

Don't You Just "Hate" Your Nose!?! 

Would You Simply Cut Off Your Nose To Spite Your Own Face 

When You Know Of A Surety That 

Doing So Will Do You More Harm 

Than Keeping Your "Hated" But Needed Nose!?!  

Beloved, 

Think Before You Act! 

Thinking To Hurt Anyone 

Is 

Like Thinking To Cut Off Your Own Nose!  

Think Before You Overreact! 

Think Of The Mental/Emotional, Physical, And Spiritual Pain 

And 

Think Before You Do Something To Spite Someone

Or To Take Revenge Against Someone

Whom You Believe Has Done Something To You

Real Or Imaginary! 

Dear Ones, 

Have You Not Seen

Have You Not Heard That 

Vengeance Belongs To The Lord God Almighty

And 

It Is He, Alone, Who Will Repay All Debts Owed!?! 

We Need To Grow Up As Christians 

If It Is Our Heart's Desire To See Jesus Christ The Lord

The King

The Judge Of All Flesh

In Perfect Peace! 

Let's Never Again Denigrate And Disfigure Ourselves 

In The Vain Hope Of Destroying A Life 

- For Which Jesus Christ Died - 

That We Can Neither Give Back Or Repair! 

Remember ... 

When Digging Graves For Others

We Also Dig One For Ourselves! 

Take The High Road To Christ's Surpassing Glory! 

Keep Your Nose! 

Peace!

Promised To No Man!

Beloved, 

We Always Have Choices 

But Chances ... Not So Much! 

We Have The Choice To Make Today: 

Live In Love And Light With The Lord Of Life 

Or

Land In The Lake Of Fire 

Through Lust With The Lord Of Lies! 

As Regards The Chance To Make Our Choice ... Tomorrow

That Day Is Indelibly Stamped: 

"Promised To No Man!"

Oh, What A Horror! 

In The Olde Days

When Some Young Village Ram 

Was Prancing Around And Doing The Dog

And 

Some Elder Would Call Him Out About His Behavior 

And Ask When He Was Going To Change 

Or Give His Life To The Lord

The Patented Response Was Invariably: 

"Tomorrow!" 

Which, Inevitably, Never Came 

Because 

The Grim Reaper Came First! 

Remember, Dear Ones, 

We Can't Buy Life 

And 

We Can Neither Stop Nor Sell Death! 

We Were Constantly Cautioned: 

"What You Can Do Today, Do Today!" 

Or Put Another Way

"Never Put Off For Tomorrow 

What You Can Do Today 

Because Tomorrow's Sun Never Rises!" 

This Is Sound Bible Teaching Worthy To Be Accepted 

And 

Acted Upon 

No Matter What The Naysayers Bray! 

The Night Is Coming When No Man Can Work 

So Let Us Permit The Holy Spirit 

To Do A Good Work In Us Today! 

Let's Lean On The Lord 

And 

Learn The Word 

Which Reveals The Thoughts And Intents Of Our Hearts 

And

Is Able To Cut Out The Unprofitable 

Because 

It Is Sharper Than Any Two-Edged Sword! 

Live Today ... Today! 

Peace!
