VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Open Our Eyes, Lord!




Beauty Is Within The Eye Of The Beholder!

The Eye Is The Window Of The Soul
And 
The Window Opens And Closes! 
The Window Opens To Receive Messages
And 
Closes To Reject Messages! 

Beloved, 

It Stands To Clear Reason That 
The Messages Are Going Somewhere
And 
As A Result Of Known Storing
The Heart Of The Living Soul 
Sends Messages Around And About 
To The Father, The Son, And Holy Ghost
To Holy Angels, To Men
And 
To Fallen Angels Bold! 

We Send Messages For Good Or For Ill
Messages To Draw Near
Messages To Repel
Messages For The Soul To Keep
Messages From Friends To Retreat
Messages To Grate
Messages To Gratify
Messages Of Hate
Messages Suitable For A Child's Lullaby
Messages With Weight
Messages Of The Sweet By And By
Messages That Taint
Messages That Say Heaven Is Click-Bait
Messages Of Truth And Right
Messages That God-Defy
Messages That Make The Savior Cry
Messages That Render Hope A Lie
Messages That Exalt The Liar
And 
Messages That Tell The Sinner Beware: 
That Act Will Land You In Consuming Fire! 

Dear Ones, 

What Messages Are You Sending Through Your Diet Of Beholding!?! 

Will Your Eyes Behold Our Returning Savior In Peace
Or
Will Your Message Cause Another 
To Consider The Love Of Our Holy God The Least!?! 

Are You Changing For The Good!?! 
Are You Encouraging Another To The Right!?! 
Are You Blessing The Lamb Or The Liar!?! 

Are You, And By Your Living, Climbing
And 
Encouraging Others To Reach Heights Higher And Higher!?!

Are You Beholding The Precious Lamb Of God
The Prince Of Peace
The Good Shepherd Of Rest, Life, And Living 
Who Does The Body Good
And 
Keeps Us Body And Soul From Entering The Lake 
Burning With Brimstone And Fire!?! 

Whatcha Lookin' At!?! 
Who Is Watching You!?! 
Are You Watching And Working
Or Are You Twerking To The Burning!?! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord Jesus Christ Is Seeing You! 

Will You See Your Personal Record With Joy
Or Will That Record 
Cause What Should Be Your Day Of Joy And Gladness 
To Be Destroyed!?! 

Warning ...

Be Careful Little Eyes What You See 
So That The Signals That You Send 
Do Not Corrupt Your Soul
And 
Snowball In Your Heart
And 
Cause Your Eyes Wide
Heart Cold
Hope Lost
Faith Failed
To Staunchly, Deftly, Corrupt Others! 

Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ... 

You May Look At Self And Sin
And 
Like Satan Become A Sinner
Or 
You May Look At The Savior Offering Salvation 
And 
Satisfy Your Hungering Soul
And 
Become A Saved Saint! 

Dear Ones, 

The Choice, As Always, Is Yours ... Alone! 
Choose Wisely! 

Peace!


Do Good!
Be Good!
Fear God!
Fare Well!

HAPPY SABBATH + Be Transformed ... By Truth!








 





I Stand Before You A Sinner ... Reformed
A Liar ... Transformed
A Sinner Turned Saint Of God
A Child Reborn! 

Beloved, 

Please Do Not Allow Yourself To Be Fooled! 

All Men Are Liars ... There Is No Dispute
For That Is The Word Of Almighty God
Shiloh - Prince Of Peace
The Light Of Life
The Way To The Father's House
The Living, Holy, Unchanging, Unchangeable Truth! 

Dear Ones, 

We Are Man, Mortal, Malleable, Movable
Miserable, Misguided ... Sad Truth 
But
In The Hands Of The Great Physician
The God Of Grace
The King Of Glory
We Make Peace With Almighty God 
And Then Our Fellowman
And
Walk Wisely In, For, And With Saving Truth
To Enter The Holy Land! 

Beloved, 

Truth Is! 
Truth Is Transformative! 

We, You And I, Are Transformable
So Let Your Mind, By Holy, Saving, Truth
Be Daily Renewed! 

Let The  Holy Spirit Lead So That 
You May Enduringly Stand Up For Christ Jesus With Zeal
And Thereafter
In The Appointed Hour
By The Holy Spirit Of Truth
- Who Leads Us Into All Truth - 
Be Eternally Sealed! 

Moment By Moment Aggressively Use 
Your Daily Gift Of Faith In Almighty God! 

Peace!

Study The Truth ... To Know The Truth!

 


Should We Study Satan To Understand Our Savior's Love For Us 
Or
Do We Study Our Savior To Understand Why 
We Need To Avoid The Works Of The Devil!?! 

Shouldn't We Study The Savior Aka The Plain Truth 
To Know How To Recognize And Escape From Satan 
Aka The Liar And His Lies!?? 

Beloved, 

In The World Of Banking
You Would Never, Ever, Study A Counterfeit Bank Note 
To Be Able To Recognize A Real Bank Note! 

Even The Counterfeiters Know To Intimately Study 
The Real Bank Note 
To Be Able To Produce A "Real" Aka Realistic Fake! 

Dear Ones, 

The Question To Ask Is If Liars Learn Truth 
To Be Able To Tell "Believable" Lies That Still Fail
Why Would We ... As Practicing Christ-Followers
Not Choose To Study The Real Jesus, Our Only Savior
To Become Like The Real Jesus As He, Himself, Calls Us To Be 
- Which Cannot Fail -
If We Are Faithfully, Enduringly, Diligent!?! 

We Are Instructed To Study To Show Ourselves Approved
To Be Workmen That Do Not Need To Be Ashamed! 

Do You Know Of Any Working Watchmen In The Carnal World 
Who Got Promoted, Or Rewarded  
For Letting Competitors Or Detractors Into Their Corporation's 
Top Secret Research And Development Department
Storehouses, Manufacturing Facilities, Or Proving Grounds!?! 

The Answer Is A Hard "NO!" 

Likewise, In The Lord's Kingdom
No One Gets Inside The Gates Of Pearl 
Who Does Not Personally, Intimately, Know The Good Shepherd
The King Of Love ... Our Blessed Hope! 

Remember, Dear Ones, That 
We Live In The Last Days
- The Days Of Transformers -
And Must Know The Lord Jesus
The True, Real, Only, Light Of The World
Who Is The Same Yesterday, Today, And Forever! 

Be Wise For Your Own Self! 

Peace!

Is Your Sin Greater Than Your Savior!?!

 


Is Your Demon Stronger Than Your Deliverer!?! 

Is Your Sin Stronger Than Your Savior!?? 

Beloved, 

I Don't Know About You
But I Would Seriously Like To Understand 
Why We Praise And Are In Absolute Awe Of 
Persons Who "Know Their Bibles Inside And Out" 
But Somehow Don't Personally ... Intimately Know 
The Lord Jesus Christ About Whom The Book Speaks! 

Again, I Don't Know About You
But I Am Heartily Sick And Heart Sick 
Hearing About Devout And Devoted "Men And Women Of God" 
Who Choose Their Sin Over Their Eternal Salvation 
And Sensual Satisfaction Over Sanctification! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have To Stop Believing The Pretty Rubbish 
Which Gives Sinners The Easy Out 
Because 
It Says That We Will Be Sinning Until Jesus Christ Returns! 

Almighty God Is The God Of Order 
And 
If We Understand That The Lord Says What He Means 
And 
Means What He Says
We Will Know That Naming Our Sin
Accepting Responsibility For Our Actions
Going To The Lord At The Throne Of Grace 
And 
Confessing And Repenting Of Our Known Sin 
And
Pleading, Petitioning, And Begging The Lord For Help 
Via His Mercy 
And
Doing Our Part Of The Work To Overcome Said Sin 
Is
The Order Of Salvation's Business! 

Please Don't Pass The Buck Like King Saul! 
Please Don't Choose Your Things Over Your Treasure In Heaven 
Like The Rich Young Ruler 
And
Please Don't Despise Eternal Holy Things 
For Earthly Hot Food Like Esau! 

Discipline And Ungodly Desire "May" Look The Same As 
Discipline And Godly Desire 
But
Only The Discipline To Achieve The Godly Desire 
Produces For Us The Father's "Well Done!" 

By The Way
The Devil Can't Make You Do Anything! 
Think About It! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Our Blessed Savior Loves Us Beyond Death!




Humans Have The Senses 
To Hear, See, Taste, Touch, And Feel! 

Indulging In The Senseless Is Also Applied To Us! 

Some Humans Say That 
The Lord Has A Sense Of Humor! 

Why Would We Lower Our Lord 
To The Tasteless Level Of Humans Who
- With Their "Sense Of Humor" -
Indulge In Hurtful, Mean-Spirited, Cruel
Dangerous, Deadly, Even Demonic Pranks 
In The Name Of Humor!?! 

Do You Hear Any Laughter!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Never, Ever, Forget That 
Our Great God Is Not A Man That He Should Lie 
Or Have To Say "I AM Sorry!" For Doing Anything 
Because He Hurt Your Feelings! 

Beloved, 

Our Blessed Savior Loves Us Beyond Death 
So Indulging In The Idiotic Is Not Part Of His Plan 
For Our Salvation! 

The Lord Jesus 
Is 
Purposeful In All Of His Dealings With Mankind
And 
Especially So With His Beloved Saints! 

With This In Mind, Let Us Remember 
The Sons Of Thunder, James And John 
Who Wanted To Sit On The Right And Left Hand Of 
Jesus Christ The King In The Kingdom Of Light
And 
Who Proclaimed That They Could Drink Of The Lord's Cup: 
He Gave Them Their Desire To Drink Of His Cup! 

Apostle James Poured His Heart Into The Lord's Work 
And 
Was Martyred By Beheading! 

The Beloved Apostle John Did The Blessed Work 
And 
Was Boiled In Oil
But
Miraculously Survived
And 
Thereafter Produced, On The Isle Of Patmos, By Inspiration
The Wonderful Book Of The Revelation 
For Our Education And Blessing! 

Apostle John Died Peacefully, An Old Man! 

We Will See Them Both In The Kingdom! 

Never, Ever, Forget ... 

There Is No Loss With The Lord Jesus 
So Trust Him If Heaven Is Your Goal! 
He Saves And Seals! 

Peace!

Truth Will Light Our Path To Peace!



A Christian Who Walks "Wisely" In Their Imagination 
In The Idle Belief That They Are Safe In This World 
Because 
They Are Using A Long Spoon 
When They Sup With The Devil And His Minions 
Has Lost The Prize Before The Horse Race Has Even Started! 

Beloved, 

Never Let Devilish Pride Stop You From Saying Your Prayers 
And 
Letting Our Dear Savior Know That 
You Are Overwhelmed 
By All That Concerns Your Daily Life And Living! 

Being Overwhelmed
Being Buried By Bills, Work 
And 
Physical, Emotional, And Spiritual Problems 
Is 
A Recipe For Disaster Best Remedied 
By A Visit To The Always Accessible Throne Of Grace 
Where The Always Available King Of Glory And Prince Of Peace 
Is 
Always Available ... To You, To Me, To Us! 

Free Mercy Will Correct Us With Care
Chastise Us With Love 
And 
Comfort Us As The People Of The Living God 
By The Holy Spirit Who Leads Us Into All Truth! 

Truth Will Light Our Path To Peace
Provision, Purity
And 
Paradise! 

We Are Not Alone: 
Our Loving God Is With Us! 

Dear Ones, 

Let Us Never Forget 
What Our Lord Has Done For Us In The Past
What He Is Doing For Us All Like Right Now
And 
Remember, Remember, Don't Ever Forget 
What He Has Promised, By His Own Spilt, Innocent Blood 
To Do For Us Each, Individually, Personally
In The Life To Come! 

Let Us Choose To Overwhelm The Devil And His Minions 
By Our Clear And Obvious, Principled Aka Godly Devotion 
To Jesus Christ Our Lord Who Provides! 

Prove The Lord Today: 
Give Him Your Need By Prayer Wrapped In Trust 
And 
Delivered By Faith! 

Peace!





















HAPPY SABBATH + Walk By Unfailing Faith In Our Lord Jesus!












Fear Of The Unknown On A Known-Dying Earth 
Will Cost The Fearful And Unbelieving Their Purchased Seat
At The Table Of The Everlasting Father 
In The Living Kingdom Of The Eternally Blessed! 

Beloved, 

We As Professedly Committed Christians 
In The Cause Of Our Savior-Redeemer, Jesus Christ The King
Must Continually Walk By Unfailing Faith In Our Lord Jesus! 

We Must Not, We Cannot, Live Fearfully And Fretfully 
By Lying Eyesight! 

Dear Ones, 

Our Lord Jesus 
Is 
Creator And King
Redeemer And Friend
And 
Where The Word Of The Holy King Is Given
Believed
And 
Acted Upon
There Is Liberty! 

We Who Believe
Trust And Obey
And 
Endure ... Working Our Daily Gift Of Unfailing Faith
May Live Peacefully In The Midst Of Turmoil, War, And Strife! 

We May Also Rest Easy In The Certain Knowledge That 
Our Lord Jesus Is Our Shepherd
Our Strength
And 
The Refuge Wherein We Find Safety 
As Long As We Choose To Abide
- To Stay Sheltered And Protected - 
Under His Wings
In His Arms
Within His Hedge Of Protection
In His Covert 
Where Nothing Dirty, Defiling, Nor Damnable May Reside! 

Beloved, 

Believe, Honor, Trust, Worship
Give Thanks
Offer Up Your Prayers
And 
Sing Praise In The Knowledge That 
Our King In Zion Reigns And Rules
And
We Wholly Belong To Him! 

Be Hopeful! 
Be Prayerful! 
Be Vigilant
And 
Be Blessed In Jesus' Name!

Fear The Holy God! 

Peace!

Don't Tempt The Living God!




Beloved, 

Be Very Careful About Who ... And What 
You Permit To Become The "Light" 
The Be All-End All Of Your Life And Living! 

Dear Ones, 

The Lord Has Made It Abundantly Clear That 
He Owns Everything! 
He Has Also Made It Clear That 
He Will Give Us Everything ... Everlasting! 

Did He Not Give Us His Only Begotten Son 
To Be Our Everlasting Portion!?! 

If We Look At The Lives Of 
Prophet Balaam, King Saul, And King Ahab
We Will See And Know 
Understand And Accept That 
Foolishness Isn't Sense
Being Self-Willed Is Silly
Disobedience Is Disastrous
And 
Playing Dead To Right Living Aka Righteousness
In The Presence Of The Life-Giver
To See What Kind Of Funeral You Are Going To Receive 
Is 
Seriously Asinine! 

Just As We Know That Holy Angels Minister 
To Us Who Are To Be Inheritors Of Jesus Christ's Free To All Salvation
There Are Fallen Angels, Evil Spirits, Demons
Who Take Malicious Pride In Encouraging The Disobedient 
To Buy Materials And "Aiding" Them In Constructing 
The Last Comfortable Couch They Will Ever Lie Upon 
Not That They Will Know It! 

Beloved, 

Be Wise For Your Own Self! 

Don't Tempt The Living God 
Who Can Destroy You Body And Soul In Hell! 

The Lord Has Promised Us Things That 
Man's Eyes Have Never Seen
Nor Man's Ears Have Ever Heard Spoken About 
So Let Us Not Seek Our Own Way
Walk In Our Own Will
Or Satisfy Ourselves Through Sin 
By Willful, Knowing, Disobedience! 

Please Give Your All To And For Christ Jesus: 
Obedience Truly Pays! 

Peace!

Where Is Our Confidence In Christ!?!




Brethren, 

Be Not Afraid To Use Your Words
- The Words Of Our Lord Jesus -
With Confidence, Caring, And Compassion! 

How Is It That Bold Sinners, Idolaters, Deceivers
Users, Abusers, Mockers, And The Scorners Of 
All Things Holy, Good, Clean
And 
Perfect To Save Our Souls From Sin, Self
Death, The Grave, And Certain Hell 
Use Their Unwise Words With Pointed, Practiced Precision!?! 

Christians, What Is Our Problem!?! 

Where Is Our Holy Boldness!?! 

Where Is Our Confidence In Christ 
Who Has Called Us To Service
Equipped Us For Our Various Assignment
And 
Is Accompanying Us Into The Lions' Dens
The Fiery Furnaces
And 
The Enemy Encampments!?! 

Is The Damned Destroyer Stronger Than Our Creator-Savior!?! 

Is The Lord's Peace Less Than The Liar's War!?! 

Dear Ones, 

We Are Travelling Citizens Of 
The Kingdom Of The Eternally Blessed 
And 
We Are Truly Nearing Our Forever Home! 

This, Therefore, Is Not The Time 
To Be Bar-Room, Kitchen-Counter
Politically-Correct, Kissing-Cousins Friends With The World 
To Offend And Be Enemies Of Our Blessed Jesus 
Who Alone Saves! 

Let's Get In ... And Do Our Work! 

Let's Tell The Gospel Story 
And 
Get Out Of Where We're Not Welcomed
And 
Let's Go Up To Glory As Obedient And Faithful Stewards! 

Let's Bless Others With The Lord's Wonderful Words Of Life! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Please Cast Your Every Care On Our King Jesus!




Beloved, 

Can We Agree To Not Be Dismayed By What Is Going On Around Us 
Because 
We Choose To Believe 
The Holy, Infallible, Unfailing, Word Of The Eternal God That 
These Are The Signs Of The Times As Prophesied!?! 

Can We Gratefully Accept That 
Our Lord Jesus Has Promised To Never Forget Us 
And 
Will Provide For Us And Help Us 
Because 
He Loves Us As His Own Personal Treasure!?! 

Dear Ones, 

As Always, We Have Choices To Make 
And 
The Opportunity Today In Which To Make Them! 

We Have To Choose Between 
Swallowing The Poison-Pen Productions Of 
The Talking Heads Who Love The Man-Made Jesus 
Who Pours Kool-Aid Of Convenience 
And Self-Justification's Joy-Juice 

And
 
The Blood Of The Lamb Of God 
Slain From The Foundation Of The Earth 
Which Is Able To Make Us Clean Before Our Father
Who Is In Heaven On His Great White Throne 
From Which He Cannot Be Unseated 
By Neither Elaborate Lie Nor Wishful Thinking! 

We Have A Textbook, The Bible Of Truth
Which Contains Answers To All Our Questions 
And
That Same Book Tells Us That 
Our Lord Jesus Is Coming For Us As The King Victorious! 

Will You Humble Yourself Under Jesus Christ's Mighty Hand 
And 
Permit His Kindly Light 
To Lead You Safely From Earth To Our Eternal Home!?! 

With Your Faith Exercising
Please Cast Your Every Care On Our King
Shiloh, The Prince Of Peace
On Immanuel, Our God With Us! 


Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Don't Let Satan Gaslight You!

 











Beloved, 

We Should Know That In The Household Of Faith 
There Is No Such Thing As Participation In "Borderline" Sin! 

We Know That This Is So 
Because 
We Are Commanded To Abstain, To Shun
To Stay Away From Anything That Has The Appearance
The Look, The Image
The Stamp Of Evil, Of Sin! 

Dear Ones, 

There Is An Old Saw Which Says: 


"Play With The Kitty
And
Know That You Will Get Scratched!" 


Kitty Or Catty, They Both Have Claws! 

By Now We Should Know That Satan, The Originator Of Sin
Is 
A Gaslighting Specialist 
Who Would Have Us Believe Other Than What We Know To Be 
The Saving Truth! 

Sin Destroys! 
Sin Is An Aphrodisiac 
Aka One Sin Is Never Enough! 

Borderline Sin Which Is Sin
Is Like
Knowing You Cannot Have Chocolate Cake 
And 
Choosing To Make And Bake One 
And 
Cutting It Up And Giving Away All The Slices 
And Then
Eating The Crumbs And Licking The Cake-Plate With Relish! 

Abstinence 
Is 
A Voluntary Act With Moral And Eternal Implications: 
It Pleases Our Lord Jesus Christ! 

We Are To Abstain From Sin 
And 
Everything That Even Remotely Looks Like Sin 
And Instead 
Joyfully Embrace Christ's Free-To-All Salvation! 

Let Us Not Fool Ourselves! 
Eating The Crumbs Of What Will Kill You 
Will Kill You Just As Dead! 

Be Warned ... 


Self-Satisfaction
Sacrifices
Salvation
On
The Altar Of Sin! 



Let Us Fervently Pray For The Holy Spirit's Help 
To Keep Ourselves Firm In Our Resolve 
To Abstain From Anything That Looks Like Evil, Like Sin, Today! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Grace Is Strength And Truth Is Light!




Since God Is Our Refuge And Strength 
And Jesus Christ Is The Word 
And The Word Is The Truth 
And The Word Is God
Then 
Jesus Christ Is God, Our Strong Refuge! 

Since Grace Is Strength 
And Truth Is Light
And Light Is The Life Of Every Man
And Jesus Is The Light Of The World
Then 
Every Man Needs Life
Every Man Needs Jesus Christ
Every Man Needs God Who Is The Author Of Life 
Who Gives Faith Without Which No Man May Please God 
Who Reigns And Rules 
And Has Provided Rules For The Road 
Upon Which Man Must Obediently Travel With Endurance 
If 
He Is To Get Home To God 
Who Is Both Kind King And Righteous Judge 
And High Priest And Advocate 
Who Was Made Sin For Us 
But 
Was Sinless
And Spotless
And Blameless
And Clean To Clean The Spotted
And Pure To Purify The Putrid
And Is Love Loving The Unlovely 
Who Unwisely Reject His Wisdom 
Which Is Truth Pointing To Life 
Which Lights This World Of Sin 
Whereon Dwells Sinners 
Whom He Calls To Receive Salvation From The Friend 
Who, Indeed, Is He Who, Alone, Saves Sinners 
Who, Indeed, Are We All 
Who Must Confess And Repent Of Our Sin 
If 
We Are To Stand Forgiven And Cleansed 
Before The Throne Of Grace 
Which Throne Belongs To Christ Who Is Our Righteousness
Who Is Our Refuge And Strength From In The Beginning 
Where God Created The Heavens And The Earth
The Sea And All That Is In Them 
Whether Fallen Or Standing Firm In The Faith Of Jesus
The King Of Glory
Who Invites Us Willing 
To Enter The Abode Of The Blessed Of God And Christ 
Who Is Our Only Hope For Help, Healing
And 
For Heaven At The Last Trumpet Of God 
Who Is Holy, Just, And Ever True! 

Think About It
And 
Believe And Live! 

Peace!
