Go Around Comes Around!

Are You Casting Away Funds, Food

Friends, Family

Your Future

Or 

Forever In The Faithful Father's Family!?! 

We Often Say, And Regularly Hear, That 

We Don't Have Tomorrow Put Down 

Or Tomorrow Is Not Promised! 

These Statements Are True 

And

We Need To Consider That What We Do Today

By Praying, Planning, Plotting Or Even Passively

Greatly Affects Our Prospect ..., Our Hopes

For A Beautiful Tomorrow 

In The Land Of The Forever Blessed! 

Beloved, 

No Man Is An Island 

And

No Man Stands Alone: 

Everything That You Say And Do 

Impacts Your Self And Others! 

Be Aware ...

What You Toss Into The Trash 

Is 

Another Man's Treasure! 

What You Ignore, Someone Else Embraces 

And

What You Despise, Someone Else Loves! 

Search Your Self ...

Are You Like Judas Iscariot

Selling Imperishable Gold 

And

Ill-Advisedly Buying Burnable Silver!?! 

Are You Refusing The Father's Feast Of Good And Plenty 

And 

Are Looking Longingly At The Husks That The Swine Eats!?! 

What Thoughts Are Filling Your Head!?! 

Who Is Making Your Heart Their Home!?! 

What Is In That Hand That You're Extending!?! 

Are You A Peace-Speaking Warmonger 

Or A Peace-Seeking Peace-Keeper!?! 

Do You Care!?! 

By Almighty God's Great Gift Of Grace

With A Willing Spirit

And

With Patient Endurance

Fix Your Face

Fix Your Feelings 

And 

Fix Your Future: 

Go Around Comes Around!

UNGODLY LUST: Godly Desire!

 

Desire 

Is 

Beautiful And Ugly

Enlivening And Deadly! 

When Desire Is Motivated By The Lust Of Our Flesh

It Becomes Ugly And Deadly 

When Left Unchecked! 

When Desire Is Motivated By The Love Of The Lord Christ 

And

Conveyed On The Wheels Of Faith 

Carrying A Flatbed Of Trust 

Occupied By A Heart Headed To Higher Ground On The Upward Way

It Is Beautiful ... Enlivening 

And 

Gloriously Blessed

And

Daily Life Is Lived Without Unprofitable Stress! 

Where, With Whom

And 

For What 

Is 

Your Heart's Desire!?! 

Is Your Desire For The Here And Now

For The Seen And Heard

And

For The Touched And Felt 

Or 

Is It Holding Hope High 

And 

Choosing Strait Aka Hard And Narrow 

Instead Of Easy And Wide!?! 

Is Your Flesh Ruling Your Will 

Or 

Is Your Daily Gift Of Faith For Today 

Guiding You On The Wise Way 

Upon Which You Should Boldly Walk Without Worry!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Warned! 

When Putrid Pride Influences Personal Desire

Wisdom 

Is 

Decidedly Discarded 

And 

Folly 

Is 

Enthusiastically Embraced 

And 

Unwisely Elevated! 

How Do You Stand ... 

We ... As Committed-To-Christ Christians

Are Called To Be Wise

To Desire The Good Portion

To Remember Whose Children We Are

To Reject The Unclean Things

And

To Wait Patiently Upon The Lord 

As We Humbly Bear The Family's Name 

And

To Joyfully Tell The Good News Gospel 

To All Who Choose To Hear It! 

Brethren, Beloved

Let Us Willingly, Eagerly

Confidently Choose This Day

To Longingly, Lovingly, Lastingly Desire 

Our Lord Jesus Christ!

Open Your Eyes!

There Is No Man So Blind As He That 

Chooses Out Of The Gross Pride In His Heart That 

He Will Not See! 

Question Is

What Is There So Frightening To Look Upon

To Observe Intently

To Learn From By Clear Sight That 

The Willfully Blind One Refuses To Look Upon It!?! 

Beloved, 

If We Are Honest About Our Own Selves

Our Own Experiences

We Must Answer, Truth! 

Truth 

Is 

So Plain, Complex, Soft, Hard, Light, Dark

Sweet, Sour, Beautiful

And 

So Ugly That Those Of Us Who Walk Self-Assured

Self-Centered

And 

Self-Justified In Our Own Self-Worship 

Cannot, Will Not, Accept That

It Is Only By Fully Trusting Jesus Christ Who Is The Truth

Who Takes All Of Our Complex, Dark

Hard, Sour, Ugly Bits Into Himself 

And

Gives Us His Plain, Soft, Light

Sweet, Beautiful Wholeness That 

We Will Walk Without Blinkers And Scales 

Obscuring Aka Blinding Our Vision! 

Self-Worship Is Idolatry! 

Idolatry Is Sin! 

Willful Blindness 

Is 

Presumptuous Sin Aka Planned Sin: 

Don't Do It! 

Let's Stop With The Can't-Profit Folly Of Willful Blindness! 

Open Your Eyes! 

Accept The Plain Truth

And 

See The Light! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous

The Word Of God 

The Light That Points The Way Home

Is

The Truth:

Hear Him! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: There's No Salvation In Straw!

It Is said That 

A Drowning Man Will Catch At A Straw 

To Save Himself!

Straw Is A By-Product 

And 

A Waste-Product Whose End, Ultimately

Is 

The Dung-Heap Or The Burn-Barrel: 

There's No Salvation In Grasping At Straw! 

Those Of Us Who Don't Personally Know The Lord Jesus 

Are Drowning In Sin! 

We Who Know The Lord Christ Are Grasping For 

And

Are Being Firmly Held By The Holy Hand Of 

Our Own Creator 

And

The Creator Of The Plants From Which The Straw Comes! 

Be Wise For Yourself ... 

It Is Always Safer, More Beneficial ... More Profitable 

To Go To The Boss Than To The Servant! 

Our Boss ... The Master

The Lord Our God, The King, The Judge

- With Open Arms - 

Invites Us To Seek After Him Diligently 

While He May Be Found! 

Beloved, 

We Have A ... The ... Window Of Opportunity 

Now ... Today ... To Get In On The Ground Floor Of 

The Universe's Greatest Health, Wealth And Blessing Transfer

With No Lies Or Deceit Involved 

And

No Stealth Or Stealing Required! 

Let Us Dare ... Today

To Reject The Cheap, Useless, Straws That 

Suggest Possible Safety ... And Security

But

Grossly Fall Short And Grotesquely Fail

And Instead 

Humbly Choose To Call Upon 

And 

Repair To Our Lord Jesus 

Who, Alone, Truly Saves, Heals 

And 

Seals Us! 

Jesus Christ

Is

Our All

For All Things

And

In All Ways!

HAPPY SABBATH + The Virgin And The Party Animal!

Truth And Error 

Are Like A Virgin Serene

And 

A Party Animal Mean! 

The Truth ... That Virgin

Speaks Softly, Firmly And Pointedly 

Staying In Time And On Target

Walks The Strait Line On The Narrow Path 

And

Is Not Afraid Of The Frigid, Furious

Challenges Of The Naysayers And Soothsayers: 

Truth Is Love, Loving, And Lovely! 

By Contrast, Error ... That Party Animal 

Daringly Bedecked

Proud, Loud

A Night Walker On A Mission To Impress By Expression

Has No Brakes, No Limits Nor Leashes

And

Favors Neither Facts Nor Tender Feelings! 

Error ... A Terror

Is

A Thief And A Goad

Fearless, Lawless

A Painted Person Often Caught Wearing Light

And Is

A Gross And Poisonous Toad:

It's An Impressive Sight! 

Beloved, 

Be Warned! 

Error Survives And Prospers By Gently Expressing 

A Kernel Of Truth 

Which Gains For It A Sympathetic And Empathizing Ear! 

To Send Man Astray 

Is 

Error's Only Care! 

Behold Grace ... 

Sweet, Blessed, Truth

Kind, Benign

Has Borders And Known Ties

And

Will Not Waffle, Wander, Nor Wobble 

Because 

Truth Is Straight ... And Plain 

No Matter If You Strip Her

And

Hit Her 

Or Try To Rip Her Apart! 

Truth Is Wholly Holy

And

Serves The Great King Only! 

Truth ... Saving Truth 

Is 

Of The Living Holy God

And Therefore

Is Not ... Cannot 

Ever Be A Fraud! 

Truth Reigns In Beautiful Beulah

The Land Of The Forever Blessed! 

Brethren, Beloved 

Stick To Truth 

And 

Be A Spiritual Success 

Blessed Of Jesus Christ The King 

Our God 

And 

Soon-Returning Lord

Who Brings With Him

Every Person's Due And Earned Reward! 

Truth Was Truth Yesterday!

Truth Is Truth Today!

Truth Shall Always Be Truth

Where The Sun Of Righteousness

Reigns And Rules!!

Trut 

Familiarity With Sin Breeds Contempt For Sin!

It Is A Fact That 

Those Persons Who Live Close To Airports 

Are Not Bothered By The Roar Of Jet Engines 

Once They Have Become Accustomed To The Noise: 

Familiarity Breeds Contempt! 

Being Close To Sin 

Getting Personally Involved With Sin

Causes Us To Consider Sin As No Big Deal

And

We Soon Refuse To See Sin As Being Exceedingly Sinful

And

A Great Snare To Our Purchased Souls! 

Beloved, 

Are You Becoming Comfortable With Sin!?! 

Are You No Longer Bothered By Lil' White Lies

Five-Finger Discounts

Robbery, Murder, Adultery

Covetousness

Dishonoring Your Parents

Being A False-Oath Taker

Indulging Idolatry ... And The Like!?!

Are You So Into "Doing You" 

And 

Living "Your Truth" That You Have Forgotten That 

Every Committed Sin Crucifies Our Lord Christ Afresh!?! 

Wise Up ... 

The Doings Of Bold Sinners May Seem Exciting 

And

Be Looked Upon Favorably By The "In" Crowd 

And

Viewed Jealously By The Wannabe-Cool Crowd: 

Do Not Be Deceived! 

Almighty God 

Is 

Neither Sleeping, Fooled ... Nor Mocked! 

Heads Up ... 

The Great Day Of Small Things

The Day Of Accounts

The Day Of Reckoning 

Is 

Fast Approaching 

And

There Will Be No Discounts For 

"I Didn't Know!" 

"I Didn't Understand!"

Or

"I Thought I Was Exempt!" 

Stop And Think! 

Be Still! 

Look Around You! 

Look Up 

And

Turn Away From The Dead-End Path Of Daring Disobedience

And

Remember That Who Encourages You To Sin

Aka Who Helps You To Buy A Big-Belly Horse 

Will Not Help You Feed It! 

Your Encourager Will Also Be Your Exposer

But

Never, Ever, Your Healer! 

There Is No Profit In Sin! 

Believe It ... 

Jesus Christ Saves: 

Soul Salvation Pays! 

Whose Voice Is That!?!

Do You Know The True Sound Of The Voice Of Jesus Christ 

Or 

Are You Amongst Those Who Boldly Declare That 

Because We Are Beings Created By The Lord

Our Voices

And 

The Voice Of Almighty God 

Are Indistinguishable From Each Other!?! 

This Idea Leaves Us Ripe For 

And 

Open To Satan's Deceptions!

Lord, Please Preserve Your Children! 

Jesus Christ Said That 

His Sheep Hear His Voice 

So It Is Impossible For A Christ-Follower 

- Personally Known By The LordJesus -

To Respond To Any Other Voice Save That Of Their Lord! 

Whose Voice Are You Hearing!?! 

Whose Teachings Are You Following!?! 

Are You Following The Fashion That 

Is 

Imbuing Carnal Creatures With The Voice 

And

Power Of The Eternal Creator-God!?! 

Beloved, 

When We Humbly Pray 

And

Ask For The Holy Spirit To Guide Our Minds 

As We Diligently Search And Read The Living Word Of God

We Will Hear 

And

Intimately Know The Voice Of Our Dear Lord! 

The Holy Spirit Of God Guides Us Into All Truth 

And

He Will Never Contradict The Preserved 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Be Vigilant! 

Just As All Around Us 

Is 

Counterfeit Food, Shoes And Clothing

About Which We Are Regularly Warned

Beware False Prophets, Priests, Miracles 

And

The Lying And Corrupt Words From False Christs 

Who Promote Self Aka Flesh 

And

Self-Exaltation! 

BeWise Unto Your Own Soul's Salvation

And

Do Not Seek That Which 

Is Not 

Yours To Claim, Own Or Use!

Jesus Christ's Voice 

The Voice Of The Creator, Savior

Redeemer, Lord, God, Shepherd

And

Forever Faithful Friend

And

Judge Of All Flesh

Calls Us To Reconciliation

And

Speaks Peace: 

Our Voices ... Issuing From Thankful Hearts

Grateful For Grace

Are For Prayer And Praise! 

Keep Your Place:

Follow Christ!

Pride Is A Holey Roof-Top!

The Stories Of 

Lucifer Being Cast Out Of Heaven 

And

Adam And Eve Being Cast Out Of Eden 

Are Cautionary Tales: Take Heed! 

Never Blame Others 

For The Messes That You Heaven-Daringly Create 

And

Never Be Too Proud To Humbly Say That You're Sorry! 

Surprise: No Surprise ...

Almighty God 

Is Not 

Responsible For Our Tawdry Thoughts And Wayward Ways!

 

Lucifer Had Power, Position, And Prestige 

But

He Desired Worship 

And

Sowed Discord By Innuendo, Deceit And Outright Lies! 

Lucifer Would Have Been Forgiven 

If

He Had Chosen Humility And Apology:

He Boldly Chose War And ... Homelessness! 

Adam And Eve Were Warned Of The Adversary! 

Eve Was Beguiled 

But

Adam Indulged Willful Disobedience! 

Adam Blamed God And Eve 

And

Eve Blamed The Serpent For Their Misfortunes! 

They Never Acknowledged Their Failures 

And

Never Said "Sorry!"

And

They Were Cast Out Of Paradise! 

Beloved, 

Willfulness, Disobedience, Pride And Arrogance 

Is 

A Box Made Of Two Knife-Edged Triangles 

Because

Self Is The Trap In The Middle! 

The Triangles Poke Hard 

And 

Cut Clean

And

The Box Is Self-Sealing!

Brethren, Beloved, 

Be Wise: 

Don't Dig Your Own Grave!

 

Be Humble: 

Pride Is A Holey Roof-Top!

 

Humbly Approach The Throne Of Grace: 

Better Is A Rough Rag With The Lord Christ 

Than A Rich Robe With Satan! 

Get Your Heart Right With God! 

Peace

With Almighty God

Gracefully Grows!

Walking Wobbly Around Jesus Christ For The Present!?!

 

 

We, Each, Need To Ask Ourselves A Very Bold Question 

And

Answer It Baldly: 

"If I Am Trusting Jesus Christ The Lord For My Soul's Salvation 

Which I Believe In For An Eternity Which I Cannot Comprehend

Why Am I Not Totally Trusting This Same Jesus 

To Take Care Of Me And My Concerns In This Life 

With Which I Am Intimately Familiar And Presently At Home!?!" 

Beloved, 

We Need To Do Better 

And

Be Better In Our Walk With The Lord! 

Jesus Christ Says:

 "Trust Me And Obey!

Lean On And Learn From Me!

Take Your Daily Gift Of Daily Faith 

And

Use It To Take Me At My Living Word!

Believe Me For Your Present 

And

Walk With Me Toward Your Future!" 

But

We Are Believing Him For Our Future 

And 

Walking Wobbly Around Him For The Present 

And 

The Presents Which We Should Be Eagerly Waiting To Open! 

Take Heed ... 

If We Don't Trust Jesus Christ With Our Present-Day Needs

It Is Sure That We Will Have 

No Future Pursuits With Him In Eternity 

Because 

Doubters Cannot Receive 

The Promised Gifts Of The Faithful Saints! 

We Must Do Better! 

Let's Walk In Faith 

And

Stop Running Around With Blind-Man Sight! 

Jesus Christ Is Faithful: 

Wholly Trust Him!

VISITATION: The Fears Of The Wicked!

What A Wicked Person Fears The Most 

Shall Surely Visit Him!

 

Wicked People Fear Exposure Of Their Unholy Deeds

Ruin Of Their Carefully-Crafted "Reputation"

Loss Of Their Stolen Riches

Destruction Of Their Swanky House-Of-Cards Estate

Being Poor, Weak And Vulnerable

And 

The Great Equalizer ... Death! 

The Faithful Child And Servant Of God 

And

Diligent Student Of The School Of Christ 

Desires The Goodness, Gifts, Benefits 

And 

Blessings Abundant Spoken By The Mouth Of Almighty God 

And 

Memorialized In The Word Of God!

We, Christians Called And Committed

Being Faithful, Obedient And Enduringly Trusting 

And

Ever Truthful In Life 

And

Unto Death 

Shall, In The Great Day, Receive The Desire Of Our Hearts

Being Forever At Home With Our Lord And God! 

Beloved, 

Do Not Envy Or Follow The Wicked 

Who Ruin Themselves And Others: 

They Refuse To Know Jesus Christ 

And

Don't Choose Great Goodness And Available Grace! 

Please, I Beseech Us All

No Matter The Temptation

The Test

The Torment

The Bribe Or Supposed Benefit

Or The "We All In This Common Good!" Popular Notion

Choose To Stay On The Lord's Side 

Seeking The Good Portions 

And

Refusing To Be Pierced Through With The Many Sorrows 

Which Are The Self-Designed Lot Of Evil Men And Seducers 

Who Are On Satan The Damned's Putrid Payroll! 

Dare To Delight The Lord Of Love: 

Deal Fairly, Justly, Honestly And Rightly! 

Decide, By Grace ... For Love ... To Do Good 

And

Almighty God's Goodness Will Attend You Always 

And

In All Ways! 

Warring Against Sin

Is

Wisdom!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Are You Bearing Fruit!?!

Fig Trees Are Known To Bear Fruit Twice A Year

Offer Great Shade

And

Speak To Us Of Peace And Prosperity!

Be Not, I Pray Thee, A Leafy, Fruitless, Fig Tree 

For Such A One As This Did Jesus Christ Curse 

For Having No Fruit To Still His Hunger! 

To Have ... To Be ... A Fruitful Tree 

Is 

A Blessing Beyond Measure!

 

A Laden Fig Tree 

Aka A Working, Watching, Waiting Servant 

Aka Saint Of God And Christ 

Is 

A Treasure Sheltered, Protected, Blessed 

And

Honored By The Lord, Our Master

The Kind King

The Judge Of All Flesh! 

Are You At Your Post Of Duty Doing Willing Service 

Or Are You A Show-Pony Shaking Your Tail-Feathers

High-Stepping 

And 

Flinging Your Head Around To The Intoxicating Sounds Of 

The Bewitching Siren Of Sin 

Who Encourages The Careless

The Listless

The Loose And The Lawless

To Use Their Liberty As License To Disregard Duty!?! 

Beloved, 

We Have One Duty ... One Work ... To Perform: 

Serve The King 

And

Bear Fruit Unto Righteousness! 

Are You At Your Post!?! 

Will You Be Found Faithful!?! 

Our Master Is Coming 

And

He Is Hungry! 

He Sees Your Leafy Branches: 

Will He Find Fruit So That He Will Honor You 

And

Be Glad Of His Investment In Your Life!?! 

Please Pray About It! 

Don't Sell Out

The Savior For Silver! 

Don't Give Away

The God Of Grace For Gold! 

Don't Discard

What You Can't Buy Back

And

Don't Let Your Heart For Christ

Grow Cold!

**--**--**--**--**

Peace ... Not Pride ... Is Precious! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Make Wrong Things Right!

We Are Children Twice: 

Children Of The Living God By Creation 

And 

Redemption 

And

Birthed Children Of Our Earthly Parents! 

Our Parents Lovingly Desire What Is Best For Us! 

The One Thing That Our Parents Teach Us 

And 

Truly Desire That We Display 

And

We Should Of Our Own Free Will 

And

By Choice Practice 

Is

A Grateful, Thankful, Heart! 

Beloved, 

Our Heavenly Father ... In His Eternal Wisdom

Has Asked Us To Give Thanks In Everything 

Aka For Everything 

Aka Through Everything 

Aka Despite Certain Things! 

Are You A Practicing Thankful Person!?! 

Are You Remembering Your Home Training 

Where You Were Taught To Say 

"Please!" 

"Thank You!" 

"May I ....!"

"How Are You!?!"

Or

 

Are You Departed From The Good Way 

And

Are Living With The Attitude Of 

"Gimme This!" 

"I Deserve That!" 

"Why Didn't I Get The Biggest 

Best Most Expensive 

Prettiest Thingie Out There!?!" 

The Training By Our Earthly Parents Was For A Short Season 

But

The Training Received Of Our Lord Christ 

- Through The Ministrations Of The Holy Spirit Of Truth - 

Lasts For Our Lifetime! 

Are You Present In Class!?! 

Are You Taking In The Training!?! 

Are You Cementing Your Learning By Doing As You Are Taught!?! 

Are You A Teacher's Pet 

Or 

Are You Indulging Self 

And 

Shaming Yourself ... And Your Parents!?!

Dare To Truthfully Answer! 

Living Life

Is

An Opportunity

To Make Wrong Things Right:

Cooperate With The Lord Jesus Christ!
