We Can With Uncompromising, Unshakeable, Faith 

And 

Conviction 

Live So As To Be Able To Tell Another Who He Is

Why We Serve Him

What He Says And Does For All Of Us

- And Is Doing For Each Of Us Personally -

Where He Can Be Found

How To Personally Get To Him 

And 

How To Get To Know Him For Oneself

And 
Oh, So Much More! 

We Speak Continually Of The Things 
And 
The People Whom We Love! 

We Touch Them Constantly! 

We Speak Of Them Excitedly! 

We Go To Sleep With Them In Our Thoughts! 

We Awaken With Their Name On Our Tongues! 

Some People Of Our Association May Even Ask 
If We Cannot Speak About Anything Else! 

Some May Even Say That We Have That Person Or Thing On The Brain

And

Unsurprised
Unoffended
Unashamed
We Smile With Pleasure ... Real Pleasure ... At The Thought 

And 

Proceed To Either Talk About

Work For

Or Do Something With Or For Our Love 
Whom We Totally Cherish 

And 

Adore 

And 

Can't Live Without! 

Beloved, 

Let Us Fix Our Affections

- Just As King David Did - 

On The Lord Jesus 

So That We May Be Rooted 

And 

Grounded In Him Who Is

The Rock Of Refuge

The Shepherd Of Rest

The Joy Of Every Man 

And

Joyfully Tell It Lovingly To A Brother, A Sister

Who Needs To Personally Know Him Now! 

Oh, How He Loves You And Me ... 

Our Love For Our Jesus Christ

Should Be Bubbling Over

And

Into Every Facet Of Lives

Because

We Should Be Actively In The Process Of

Being Consumed By The Heavenly Love Of

The Lover Of Our Purchased Souls
Our Creator
The God Who Makes Dead Men Live
To Live Again ... And Forever! 

Perfect Peace For Us Is In Him!

Jesus Christ

Our High Priest

Our Savior

Our Redeemer

Our Forever Friend

The Lover Of Our Souls

Is In Heaven

Interceding For Each One Of Us!

CEMENT: Building The Love Relationship Is Everything!

"If You Love Me, Keep My Commandments! 

Speak Peace! 

Be Kind To Each Other! 

Give Thanks With A Grateful Heart! 

Diligently Seek Me! 

Open Your Heart To Me! 

Pray Without Ceassing! 

Be Faithful! 

Endure All Things! 

Come Unto Me!" 

The Instructions Are Simple! 

The Instructor Is Loving ... Kind ... Divine! 

The Student ... A Servant

Is 

An Own-Way Child

Mortal ... Corruptible

With A Hill To Climb! 

The Stakes Are High: 

Obey

Endure

Keep Faith At Your Core

Give As You Have Received

Pray

Worship And Adore

Walk Through The Open Door 

And 

Eternity Is Thine! 

Will You Lose Out On Your Heavenly Inheritance 

Because Of 
An "I Can't Be Bothered To ... !" 

A "This Is Who I Am!" 

And 

An "It's All About Me!" Attitude!?! 

Our Heavenly Instructor

Our Father

- Our Forever Friend -

Can Be Hurt 
Just As An Earthly Parent, Child Or Friend Can Be Hurt 

But

Our Bad Behavior Costs Us 

Abiding Love

Heavenly Peace

Life Everlasting ... The Eternal Inheritance! 

Are You Following The Blessed Instructions!?! 

Are You Building The Love Relationship!?! 

Are You Walking Through The Only Door!?! 

Is Cement In Your Love 

Or 

Is Your Love Cement!?! 

Do You Value The Love Or The Loot!?! 
Do You Live In Carnal Lust ... The Lie 
Or

In Eternal Truth ... The Life!?! 

Think About It! 

Jesus Christ's Gift To Us

- The Gift Called Peace - 

Is

Perfect!!

FALSE WORSHIP: Planned Sinning!?!

Iniquity 

Is 

Planned Sin 

And 

Indulging In Planned Sin 

Is 

Presumption! 

Be Sure Your Sin Will Find You Out!

We Can't Defy The Lord By Our Willful Disobedience 

And 

Expect The Lord To Save Us

While We Are Participant In Malicious Sin! 
It Is Not Going To Happen!

False Worship ...

Placing Your Self In The Position Of Almighty God

By Indulging In Presumptuous Behavior

Is 
Idolatry! 

Stop It! 

Moving On ... 

Let's Understand This Also:

Whether You Wipe The Nose Of A Queen 

Or Wipe The Butt Of A Horse

As A Christian Your Work Is Always Important 
And 

Your Faithful Service To The People Of God 

In The Name Of Jesus Christ The Lord 
Is 

Important 

And

Blessed! 

Brethren, 

We Must Endeavor ... By The Grace Of The Eternal God 

To Grow Where We Are Planted

And 

To Do What We Can 

For Whom We Can 

Where We Can
While We Can 

Without Murmur Or Complaint 

And

Choose To Be Glad 
And 
Grateful For The Lil' Pick

- The Little Work - 

That The Lord Has Assigned For Each Of Us To Do 

With Love And Endurance

And

Care And Consideration! 

Truth Will Set Us Free ... 

Gold, Silver, Wood, Stone, Dirt

King, Commoner

Doctor, Drudge

Lawyer And Laborer:

The Lord God Made Them All 
To Serve His Always-Holy Purposes! 

Beloved, 

Please Pray For Strength

Willingness 
And 
Faithful Endurance 

To Do Your Pleasant Work ... For Jesus! 

Remember ...

Adam And Eve 

Were Gardeners in Eden 

And 

Jesus Christ The King ... The Creator

Visited Them Every Day:
He Will Do No Less For Us! 

Pray Without Ceasing: 

Draw Near To The Lord Of Life! 

Jesus Christ 
Is 
Our Only Source For Lasting Peace!

HABITS: What Crop Are You Raising!?!

Everything That We Do Serves A Purpose

Even If It Is The Purpose That

We Are Sure That We Didn't Intend It To Be!

It's A Fact ...

Mind: Muscle: Product 
Aka What Is In Your Mind 
And 
That Upon Which You Expend Energy To Master 
Will Give You The Product Expected! 

A Liar Is Never Known Truthful!

A Cheater Is Never Known The Winner!

A Complainer Is Never Known Contented!

A Murderer Is Not Known The Life-Giver

And

A Faithless Person Will Never Be Known Faithful

Aka

Habits Make The Man, Woman And Child!

Whatever You Practice Diligently
Conscientiously 
And 
Carefully
Is 
The Skill That You Will Acquire 
Even If It Is A Bad Really Terrible Habit! 

Beloved, 

We Are Thinking Beings
And 
We Have Free Will 
And 
Free Choice 
And
The Freedom To Learn What We Desire
Practice What We Want To Perfect
And
Introduce The World To Our Personally Branded 
And 
Personally Produced Products! 

What Are You Thinking About!?! 
What Are You Consistently Practicing!?! 
What Have You Perfected!?!

And The Big Question

With What Are You Blessing 
Or
Blasting The World Around You!?! 

Study The Life Of The Lord

And

Live According To The Example

To Show Yourself Approved! 

Will Our Lord Christ Be Pleased With Our Personal Products!?! 
Will He Smile Affectionately Upon Us In The Day Of Reckoning 
Or
Will He Frown Severely Upon Us 
And 
Say With Terminal Tone: 

Depart From Me

Ye Who Work Iniquity!?! 

Please Study The Eternal Word ... As Given 
And
Don't Try To Make It Say What Your Sinful Self Wants! 

The Lord Doesn't Change 
And 
Neither Will His Word! 


Remember, Remember
Don't Ever Forget ...

The Word Of Truth Will Never Conform To Our Desires:
We Must ... By The Working Of The Spirit Of Truth
Allow Our Selves To Be Conformed To The Word That Is Life!
Cultivate Good, Known-Profitable, Habits
Because
Like It Or Not
We Will Eventually "Eat" What We Grow! 

Nothing Can Separate Us From The Love Of The Eternal God!

Beloved, 

Since The Totality Of The Things Possible To Embitter Our Lives 
Cannot Separate Us From The Love Of God
From Jesus Christ Our Creator ... Our King
Why In The Name Of This Same Jesus 
Are We Permitting The Trivialities
The Pettiness
The Mosquito Annoyances
The Plague Rats
The Rabid Dogs 
And 
The Thieving Cats That Visit Us In Our Daily Lives 
To Cause Us To Doubt That Our God Holy, Giving, Forgiving
Blessing, Leading, Guiding
And
Teaching
Is 
Preparing 
And
Positioning Us For Our Journey Home
To Our Heavenly Father's House Of Love, Joy 
And
Eternal Peace!?! 

Let's Get Real ...

There Is Nothing That Happens To The Obedient Child Of God 
That Is Accidental For Us 
Or
A Shock To Our God Almighty
Mighty To Save Each And Every One Of Us
Who Is Willing To Be Saved! 

We Are Being Regenerated 
And 
The Rust ... The Sin
The Bad Habits
The Noxious Attitudes
And 
The Unhealthy Desires 
Are Being Purged From Our Lives! 

Please Let Us Allow The Circumstances In Our Lives 
To Be Only What They Truly Are: Teachers! 

Be Bright Sparks ...

Let's Learn The Lesson Taught 
The First Time It Appears 
So That We Won't Have To Repeat It Time And Again!

Just So You Know ...

Every Lesson That We Must Relearn
Is
Presented Differently
And
The Exam Is Infinitely Harder!

School Is In Session: 
Choose To Be Alert 
And 
Freely Dare To Learn! 

Pardon Me
But Are You Saying That Nothing
Or No One Can Separate The Born-Again Believer
From The Love Of God!?!
Seriously!?!

You Are Pardoned
And
I Did Not Stutter: 
No Thing 
And 
No One 
Can Separate The Obedient Child Of God 
From His Maker, God And King! 

If You Are Aware Of Someone ... Or Something 
That Shall Be Able To Accomplish The Impossible
Please Feel Free To Document Same For My Study: 
I Am Willing To Be Taught 
And 
Ever Willing To Learn!

What About The Disobedient Child!?!

For Example, Me!?!

Disobey ... And Repent! 
The Lord Remembers That We Are Dust 
And
Weak
And
Need Him! 

The Price That Was Paid For Your Salvation 
Is 
Infinite Love! 
Live Up To The Price Paid ... You Can't 
And 
Believe 
And 
Trust 
And
Enduringly Obey! 

You Appear Before Him A Sinner 
But
A Presumptuous Sinner You Cannot Remain!
Believe The Living Word!
Live By The "Thus Saith The Lord ...!" 
And 
Walk In Holy Light ... Giving Up Self 
And 
Choosing The Savior ... No Matter What 
Even If You Don't Fully Understand! 

Beloved,

The God Of Grace ... For Me, For You
Is 
Not A Liar
So Stop Striving Against The Holy God Who Loves You Best
And

Rest Easy ... In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!

Since You Put That Way
I Willingly Yield!

Peace Be Upon You!

AMEN!!!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Make Peace, Sue For For Peace: Live In Peace!

The Truth Sets Mankind Free!

Beloved, 

We Have The Choice To Make: 

Yield To The Prompting Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth 

And 

Let Our Our Path ... Our Steps Through Life

Be Designed, Ordered 

And 

Directed By The Lord Of Life Who Loves Us 

So That We Can Make Peace With The Past

Be At Peace In The Present

And 

Live Eternally At Peace With That Faithful Lord Of Life 

In The Certain Future 

OR 

We Can Continue To Be Willfully Unwise 

And 

Bungle Our Way Through Life 

And

Be Perpetually Miserable ... Having No Hope! 

With Our Future Estate Determined By Our Present Actions

Let's Realize That We Are Weak 

And 

Need Help From The Only One 

Who Sacrificially, Infinitely
Unswervingly Loves Us Personally 

And 

Intimately! 

Denounce Pride ...

Let's Humble Ourselves 

And 

Call On The Maker

Our Master, Lord, God And King 

Who Hears Our Pitiful Cries

Cares For Us

And 

Always Answers Our Prayers! 

"No!" Is An Answer:
If We Received Every Last Thing We Asked For
We Would Be Miserable Indeed!

Subjugate Arrogancy ...

Our Days ... Our Years

Are In Almighty God's Holy, Blessed
Preserving, Providing
Ever-Faithful Hands
So Let Us Never Forget
- Let Us Ever Remember -
That We Have The Blessed Hope!

You Need Help: Ask For It!

Pray A Prayer ...

Jesus Christ Saves! 
Let's Run To Him!
Let's Walk With Him
And 
Let's Work Diligently 
And 
Faithfully For Him

And
Rest Assured That

We Will Be Blessed Today And Forever! 

Peace Be Upon You! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Do Fuh Do Ain't Obeah!

... Let's Heed The Master's Call
And
Choose To Walk In The Holy Way!

Put Another Way
This Living Word Says 
What You Desire To Do Unto Others 
Should Be Done Unto You: 
Let That Really Sink In! 

How Many Of Us Are Truly Willing 
Or Eager To Follow This Sage Advice!?! 

How Many Of Us Would Actually Enjoy ... Or Embrace 
The Results Which Come From Following This Advice 
Without Crying 

"Oh, Woe Is Me! 

What Did I Do To Deserve This! 

Why Me, Lord!?!" 

Beloved, 

Life Is Already Hard 
So Why Make It Harder By Being Uncharitable!?! 

We Sin Daily By Thought, Word And Deed! 
We Indulge In Presumptuous Sin ... Daily 
By The Deliberate, Well-Thought Out 
Acts Of Unkindness That We Commit Against Others! 
Enough Already!
Just Stop It! 

We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder To Glory! 
We Are Soldiers Of The Cross! 
We Are Children Of The King! 
We Are Acquiring The Character Of Christ 
And 
We Will Do Well To Recognize 
And 
Understand 
And 
Appreciate That
Our Lord Was Never
And
Is Never Malicious In His Actions! 

Malice Is Satan's Domain!

Our God Is Love!
Love Sent Him To The Cross Of Calvary!
Love Laid Him Out In The Grave!
Love Got Him Out Of The Grave!
Love Saw Him Rising Up To Glory!
Love Has Him In The Most Holy Place Of
The Heavenly Sanctuary
Interceding For You And For Me!
Love Will See Him Come To Earth Again
To Receive Unto Himself His Very Own Children
Regenerated In His Very Own Holy Image ... Undefiled!
Think ... Meditate ... Chew On This Truth!

Those Of Us Desiring To Enter The Eternal City
Can No Longer Conduct The Business Of Daily Living
As Is Usual ... Customary ... Blighted ... Benighted
That That Is Truly Unacceptable For A Child Of The Great King!

Pull Yourself Together ...

Changes ... Great Changes ... Must Be Made
Or Else Instead Of Seeing Our Loving King
We Shall Be Confronted By The Frowning Judge!
Please Do Not Permit False Pride To Rob You Of
The Robe Of Christ's Righteousness
Your New Name
Your Gold Crown
Your Future
Your Hope
Your Home
Your Help
Your Only Means Of Salvation!

Brethren,

I Challenge Us All Now ... Today
To Think Of The Worst Thing We've Ever Done To Another
And 
Remember Their First Response To Our Cruelty 
And Then
Imagine ... In 3-D
How Well We Would Enjoy Being On 
The Receiving End Of Such Not-Tender Mercies! 

Remember ... 

Dish-Out Feels Really Good 
But 
Pay-Back Is A Female Dog! 
It's Time, Dear Ones, To Class-Up Our Acts! 
Heaven Awaits Almighty God's Loving Saints!

Do Right

And

May The Perfect Peace Of Prince Immanuel

The Shepherd Of Rest

The Rock Of Ages

Our Hope, Help And Sure Salvation

Rest Mightily Upon You!

The Bald Question!

The Banner Of The Lord Over His People 
Is 
Love ... The Holy Love Of The Eternal God: 
Love Prospers In Truth! 

The Question That Needs To Be Baldly Asked 
And 
Honestly Answered Is: 

Are We ... As Committed Christians

Living In Perfect Love 

And

Absolute Truth

As They Proceed

From The Heart Of Our God 

Who, Himself, Is Love And Truth!?! 

Will You Take Your Personal Stand For Living Truth 
And Live By, Stand On, And Die For Perfect Love!?! 

Is Your Love Situational ... Conditional!?! 

Is Truth, For You, Transactional ... Negotiable!?!

Will Your Life Stand "The Sniff Test" Before The Judge Of All Flesh!?! 

Beloved, 

Let's Think Long And Hard 
Not About What We Must Give Up 
But 
About What We Need To Hold Near And Dear 
If 
Our Heart's Desire 
Is 
Heaven At The Last Trumpet! 

There Is No Love Without Truth 
So Let Us Know It
Tell It
Live It
Share It
Walk In It 
And, Yes
If Needs Be
Die For The Truth! 

Jesus Christ 
Is
The Truth 
And
The Love Of Almighty God Exemplified 
Aka Personified ... Made Real 
And 
No One Gets Into The Father's House Without Jesus 
... The Character Of Jesus ... 
Without The Love Of God
Without The Truth! 

Heaven! 
Hell! 
Where Are You Headed!?! 

How Much Preferred Stock

Do You Have In Saving Truth 

And 

Heavenly Love!?!
