We Are All Tied Up By The Threads Of Our Own Sin Severable Only By The Scissors Of The Lord Which He Uses To Set Us Free ...! ... You Could Really Hush Your Mout'! The Lord Ain't A Man So He Does Not Wield Any Scissors! Au Contraire, Mon Frere! You Do Not Know The Scriptures! He Does Not Know The Scriptures Because He Does Not Ever Read The Scriptures!

My Friend, I'll Let You Into The Little Open Secret Found In That Living Word And Introduced By The Lord Christ, Himself! Meet "Scissors:"
Whoa, Mama! What Are You Saying!?! I Am Saying ... Plainly That Jesus Christ The Righteous The Son Of The Eternal God Our Savior, Redeemer, And Forever Faithful Friend Is The Truth ... Which Sets Us Free From Sin And Is Therefore Our Only Pair Of "Always-Sharp, Utterly Efficient, Effective, Scissors" Useful Always For Cutting Sin Out Of Our Lives And Getting Us Unto Sure And Secure Soul Salvation If We Faint Not And Endure To Life's End Or The Second Coming Of Our Lord!! Any Questions!?! How, When, Why ...!?! Easy! He Left His Home In Glory And Became The Living Sacrifice To Make A Way For Us To Return To The Bosom Of The Father After Having Escaped Sin That Known Demonic Device! He Came Because Almighty God Loves Us! He Loves Us All Sacrificially! He Came To Show Us How To Live Here Oh, So, Abundantly! He Came To Make The Way Of Salvation Plain For You, For Me! He Severed Sin's Strangling Ties Upon Humanity! He Carved Out The Path That Leads To The Heavenly Home And Praise The Living God He Promised To Be With Us Always To Never Leave Us On Our Own! But If He's There ... In Heaven How Can He Be Here ... With Us ... Always!?! Man, You Need To Crack Open Your King James Now! It's An Amazing Gift Given To Us! The Lord Went Home To His Glory And He Sent Unto Us His Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit Of Truth Who He Promised Will Lead Us Into All Truth! Brother, Truth Is A Two-Edged Sword!

I Shall Tell All Who Are Willing To Listen That Truth Is Good For All Persons Rich Or Poor Aged Or Youth! Man, Woman, Child ... Brethren, Let Not Yourself Be Beguiled By A Convenient Comfortable Not Quite Truthful Word Aka The Comfortable Lie! Truth Is Deep Always Relevant Unneedful Of Polish Impervious To Place And Time! Truth Is ... And Done! Accept It! Reject It! Reflect Upon It! Deflect It! Whatever You Do, Dear One Truth Belongs To The Eternal God And Cannot Be Changed, Erased, Remanufactured Re-Imagined, Re-Engineered, Nor Re-Cast By Any Created Being Not Even By That Lying Devil Satan, The Wannabe God The Known Damned-For-Eternity Fraud! Give Grateful, Thankful, Heartfelt Praise To The Living, Eternal, Holy God Who Is Truth For His Gift To Us That Keeps On Giving: His Always Relevant, Always Perfect, Truth! Hallelujah To The Lamb! AMEN!
Life Is Lived Whether You Are In Joy, Want, Sorrow Or In Pain
So Do Not Curse The Lord!
Do Not Be The Soul Profane!
Death Is The Known And Appointed End Of This Mortal Life!
The Known-Dead Know No Joy No Sorrow No Pain No Saying No Being No Doing No Love No Hatred!
From The Second Death - Which Is Eternal Separation From Almighty God - There Is No Returning! No Resurrection! Ever!
There Is No Eternity Lived In Everlasting Misery!
Man Desires Life But Does Man Make The Crucial Decision!?!
Does Desire Comport With Decision Or Does Desire And Reality Become Involved In The Life-Altering Collision!?!
It Is Time, Brethren To Wheel And Come Again!
Life Happens ...
So, You're Disappointed! Will You Now Forget The Lord's Daily Goodnesses And Neglect To Wait To Reflect To Trust Truth And To Reason That He Is Almighty He Knows Everything He Sees Everything
He Is In Everything And He Feels Every Single, Solitary, Thing That You Feel!
Will You Fail To Understand That If No ... Or Wait Is
His Response To Your Request Then
It Is Because He Knows Best He Loves You Best
And He Does What Is Best For You His Well-Beloved Child In This Time Of Your Life!?!
Faith Does Not Permit Doubt ...
Wolves Prey! Sheep Pray!
Believers Walk By Faith! Non-Believers Live With Doubt!
The Faithful Live In Godly Fear! The Doubting Live In Fear Without God!
Path of Faith: Forsaking All I Trust Him The Eternal, Holy, Faithful Blessing, Giving, True God!
Path of Doubt: Confusion Doubt Disbelief
Rebellion I Do Not Trust Him Whom I Cannot See With My Carnal, Lying, Eyesight!
The Book Of Remembrance Of One's Lived Life - By Self Having Been Unwisely Performed And By The Holy God Left Unedited, Unabridged, Unpolished And Plainly, Rawly, Written - Will Be Closed Sealed All Sin Retained On Your Personal Account And You, Unrepentant Will Be Consumed - Burned To Nothingness - At The Appointed Time
In The Lake Of Fire Unless ... Unless ... Unless
One Chooses To Step Back In Time See The Detritus Of The Life ... Lived And Do The In-Depth Survey Seeing The Real Need For The Savior And Confessing And Repenting To The Father God In The Name Of Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son With The Help Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth
No Bad Habit Will Bless And
No Good Habit Will Curse
So, Let Us About Our Own Soul's Salvation Be Aggressively Bold
And
Put Bad Habits In The Gear Called Reverse!
Willful Sin Led Man Into The Curse And
Jesus Christ Died The Baleful Curse To Reverse
So, Let Us Give Him "Thanks!"
Accept His Free Gift
And
Utter Unfeigned Praise
And
Put Satan On Notice That
Damnation Is Not Ours But His Hearse!
Salvation Is Free To Those Who Choose To Believe!
Damnation Is For Those Who Permit Themselves
To Be Deceived!
The Christ-Follower Is Not Foolish
Will Not Practice Anything Ghoulish
Will Not Be Mulish
Nor Behave About Almighty God's Laws
As One Who Is Clueless!
Don't Live Your Life For The Crowd
The Views, The Thumbs-Ups, The Hearts!
Let Your Heart Rest In Peace
Upon Him Who Is Our Peace
And
Depart From Self
Which Is A Known Evil Disease!
The Fool Says In His Heart That
There Is No God
So, By Extension
No Sin, No Judgment, No Reward!
The Righteous Believe God's Word
And
Tremble
And
Work Out Their Own Soul's Salvation With Godly Fear
Knowing That The Gracious God Holy
For Them ... Personally
Does Sacrificially Care!
There Will Be No Fools In Heaven
So, Be Watchful!
Be Wise
And
Let The Living Word Of Truth Cause You Of The Dominion Of Doom
I Read My Bible
And The Word Of The Lord, Himself
Calls The Holy Spirit Another Comforter
So I Don't See What There Is
In The Holy Spirit To Fear!
I Read In My Bible That
No One Can Come To The Lord
Unless The Holy Spirit Calls Him!
I Also Read In My Bible About
Communion With The Holy Spirit
Cooperating With Christ
Obedience To The Will Of God
Faithfulness, Endurance
Witnessing To Brethren
But I SEE No Where That
I Can Have Personal Contact ... At Will
With The Omnipotent Holy Spirit God!
Will Somebody Please Enlighten Me To The Truth, Please!?!
That's A Lot To Unpack!
God, Almighty God, Is A Spirit
And
They That Worship Him
Must Worship Him In Spirit And In Truth!
Your Valid Point Is:
The Holy Spirit Calls Us!
My Point To You Is This:
The Holy Spirit Takes Up Residence
In Your Heart-House!
You Need Your Heart To Live!
You Can't Turn Your Heart On And Off
So If The Holy Spirit
By Your Uncoerced, Personal, Invitation
To The Lord Christ
Is
In Residence
And
You Are Cooperating With Christ
Are You Not ... Already
In Personal Contact With The Holy Spirit!?!
Secondly,
If The Holy Spirit Leads Us
Is Leading Us Into All Truth How Can We Not Be In Personal Contact With Him!?!
Thirdly,
If The Holy Spirit Guides And Chides Us How Can We Not Be In Personal Contact With Him!?!
Brethren,
The Church Is Filled With Many Persons
From Other Religious Traditions
And
There Are Many ... Even In Leadership Roles
Who "Believe" That Sight And Sound Is Salvation
Aka Pray A Prayer
Receive A Word, A Sign, A Wonder
And
You Are Saved!
You Have Salvation!
Put Differently
There Are Many Who Like To Have A New Thing
With Which To Thrill The Brethren!
I Ask You This:
Why Are You Searching For That
Which You Have In Possession!?!
The Impartation Of The Holy Spirit
Is
A Gift To Us From The Lord
And
The Vision, The View, Of Our Gift
Is
Our Changed Lives, Likes, Dislikes
Desires, Hopes
Interactions, Reactions
Tastes, Temptations ...!
... Temptations!?!
Oh, Yes!
The Temptations That Satan Sends The Way Of
The Confessed, Converted, Christian
Are Strictly For The Purpose Of Shame And Denigration!
Shaming You ... The New Child Of Almighty God
And
Denigrating The Lord Christ
Because The Knowledge Of His Sacrifice
Didn't, Couldn't, "Stop" His Professing Child Reborn
From Doing The Nasty By Nature!
Before You Chose Christ
- By Accepting The Holy Spirit's Call -
You Were A Known Enemy Of The Eternal
So, Therefore, No Threat To The Dark Lord's Dominion!
As A Confessing, Repentant
Turning Away From Sin Unto Salvation
Practicing Christian
You Are Become A Problem
Thus A Threat
Thus A Target
And
Marked For Neutralization
By Threatenings, Tests, Trials
Torrid Temptations
And
If All Else Fails
Termination With Prejudice!
Death To Defiers Of The Damned One!
Indeed!
But ...
We Have This Hope ...!
... Within Our Hearts!
AMEN!!!
What Do You Do When Satan's Knocking You!?!
Pray!
What Do You Do When Love Is Calling You!?!
Pray!
What Do You Do When Hope Is Gone!?!
What Do You Do When You're All Alone!?!
What Do You Do When You Want To Call The Heavenly Home!?!
We Pray, Pray, Pray!
What Does The Holy Spirit Do With Your Prayers!?!
He Intercedes With Groanings!
Groanings That Cannot Be Uttered!
Who Knows The Mind Of God!?!
The Holy Spirit Of God!
And If We Have The Holy Spirit Indwelling Us - Living Within Us -
Does It Not Stand To Reason ...!
... The Lord Said Come Let Us Reason Together ...!
... Which Means Gives The Lord Your Sin
Your Scarlet
Your Crimson
AndHe Shall Make Them White
Like Snow
Like Wool!
For That To Happen
The Gift Given By Your Personal Savior
- His Indwelling Holy Spirit -
Must Do A Personal Work Of Refurbishment
Reformation
Regeneration
In Me, In You, In Us!
Is This Something That We ... Fallen
Sinful, Sinning, Creatures Can Do!?!
Is This Something That We Can Engineer
By "Tapping Into!?!"
Brethren,
We Cannot Go To The Holy Spirit!
The Holy Spirit Comes To Us!
We Do Not Instruct The Holy Spirit
Saying:
Today I Want The Gifts Of The Spirit
Tomorrow I Want The Fruits Of The Spirit
Two Days Hence I Want To Witness To A Stranger-Friend
Next Sabbath I Want To Prophesy ...!
... If We Have The Power To Do All Of That
We Make The Word Of Almighty God A Verifiable Lie
And Our Blessed Lord A Charlatan!
In Essence
We Can Save Ourselves
And
Jesus Christ's Sacrifice For Us
Is
A Total Failure ... A Waste!
Isn't That Satan's Endgame!?!
Always Was And Always Will Be!
Brethren,
We Must Be Wise Unto Salvation!
The Word ... The Way Of The Lord
Is
Simplicity!
The Lord Has Told Us
How To Get To The Father
Which Is Through The Son
Who Gives Us Of The Holy Spirit Which Is By Invitation
When We Accept The Living Word Of God
Which Is Able To Save Our Souls!
Jesus Christ Is The Word!
The Word Became Flesh
And
Dwelt Among Us!
He Lived To Show Us How To Live Now!
He Died, Got Up
And
Rose Up To The Father
And
Is In The Most Holy Place Of
The Heavenly Sanctuary
Making Intercession For Us!
Before The Lord Christ Left The Earth
To Return To His Glory With The Father
He Said He Would Send Us Another Comforter
To Lead Us
To Be With Us
To Comfort Us
To Teach Us
To Bless Us!
The Lord Christ Did Not Lie
Because
He Cannot Lie!
He Is The Truth!
Since His Living Word Is Tried Gold
Imperishable
Rest ... Assured
That You ... A Born Again
Faithful, Believing
Working, Waiting, Watching
Cooperating-With-Christ Christian
Is
In Personal Contact With The Holy Spirit
Who Is Almighty God!
You Don't Need To Learn ... How
To Get Into Personal Contact
With The Holy Spirit!
What We Need To Do Is To Indulge
Willful Obedience
Ready Praying Hard-Working Faith
Prayerful Watching
Constant Cooperation
Wise Witnessing
Loving Care
And
Cheerful Sharing Of Good Food
Blessing Words
And
Caring Comfort To All People
Friend, Not Yet Friend
And, Yes
Even Our Foes!
We Do Not Need A New Thing
To Excite Our Fancy!
We Need To Trust
Honor, Worship, Obey
And
- The Hard One For Most -
Cooperate With The Lord
Through The Working Of The Holy Spirit
So That We May Be Eternally Blessed!
AMEN!!
Our Charge For The Week Ahead Is Found In
Proverbs 12:28 :
Righteousness Exalts ...Raises Up
A Person, A Family, A People!
Our Lord Jesus Is Righteousness Personified
So Let Us Endeavor To Daily Walk In His Footsteps
So That In The Great Day Of Judgment
Our Reward Is Not Condemnation But The Well-Done Commendation
And
The Welcome Into The Joy Of Our Lord!
Remember ...
Right Living ... Righteousness
Is
A Choice Which Pays Present, Future
And
Eternal Dividends
That No Created Being Can Erase Or Steal
Because
Jesus Christ ... By The Holy Spirit
Saves And Seals
So Let Your Life Lived In Him Shine As A Light In This Dark World Of Sin!
Blessed Assurance Constant, Able, Help Eternal Security
And Perfect Peace Are Gifts
- Through The Grace Of Almighty God -
From Jesus Christ The Lord
The Hands Of Love The Redeemer
And
The Restorer Of Each And Every Believing Human!
Satan
Is
The Liar
The Accuser Of The Brethren
The Enemy Of Souls
The Cause Of Every Human's Sin
And
He, It Is
Who Insinuates
Interposes Himself
Between Our Self And Our Savior, Jesus Christ
The Sun Of Righteousness
Our Soon Returning Greatly Desired King!
This Purveyor Of Sin
You Must Aggressively Resist!
We Must Not Turn Aside To Fables
And
Be As Those Who Sought To Build
That Sinful Tower Called Babel!
We Are To Seek To Build
The Character Of Christ In Our Own Lives
And
Step Away From The Broken Cisterns
That Cannot Satisfy A Need
No Matter How Much Of Our Heart's Desire
It Is Purported That They Shall Hold!
Do Not By Willful Sinning Be Sold!
Salt Of The Earth!
Light Among Men!
Let Not Satan Cause You To Doubt
To Tremble In Ungodly Fear
So That From Performing Your Holy Mission
He Will Secure A Rout!
Don't Buy That Which He Touts!
Walk In Love!
Live In Hope!
Help Is At Thy Right Hand:
Reach Out For The Son Of Man!
You Confessed Your Sin!
You Repented Sincerely!
Do Not Look Back At What Was!
Walk Ahead With Christ's Hand Of Help
And
You, Brethren Beloved Shall Assuredly See Clearly!
The Lord Of Life Loves Personally Loves You Dearly!
Jesus Saves!
Jesus Redeems!
Jesus Restores!
Trust Jesus
And
Abide In Christ's Love
Enveloped In Peace
And
No Created Being
Fallen Angel ... Demon
Satan, Himself
Nor Demon-Inspired
Nor Demon-Possessed Man
Can Ever Stop You
From Enjoying The Welcome Home Banquet
For The Eternally Blessed!
The Lord Is Preparing A Wondrous Feast!
Stop Trading In Pharasaic Yeast!
It Is Manufactured By The Eternally Damned Beast!
