HAPPY SABBATH: Liberty In Jesus Christ

People Of God
Look Around You!
Don't You See False Prophets Everywhere?
Don't You Know That They Are Here To Mislead You
AND
Of The Living God They Have No Fear?

Yon Minister Teaches
That Man's Soul Is Immortal!
Over There The Minister Teaches
God Must Your Willful Unrepented Of Sin
Forgive!
Over Yonder The Minister Preaches
That He Can Forgive Your Sin
AND
That Right Living Is An Impossibility
For Human Beings Like Him!

Two Streets Over
The Preacher Says
Sin Is Not Sin If You Love The Lord!
Next Door To Him
The Teacher Preaches That
We Can Sin But
We Must Pay God For A Forgiveness Award!
AND
The Big Man With The Mega Massive Church
Up On The Hill
Says That God Must Save You
Because A Sinner Is What He Created You To Be 
AND
He Can't Leave You In The Lurch!

And, Then ...

There Are Those Who Maliciously Choose To Teach
Another Christ
Another Gospel
Another Eternal Life
Another Hope
Another Way To Pray
AND
All Things To Which Prosperity Leads The Way!

BUT ...

Take Heed!
Let No Man Deceive You!
God Is Not Mocked!
Man Does Not Wind God's Not-A-Clock!
God Keeps His Own Records!
God's Word Is Sacrosanct
AND
Doing The Work Of The Devil Means
Those Who Walk Contrary 
Will By Fire And Brimstone
Be With Malice Severely Spanked!

God's Holy Spirit-Converted
Faithful
Obedient
Steadfast
Enduring People
Cannot Be Deceived
By Blighters On Satan's Dole!
They Cannot Be Wrecked Like Ships On
The Unexpected Shoal
Nor 
Can They Ever Be Diverted From Achieving
The Promised Heavenly Goal!

People Of God
I Beseech You To
Be Diligent
AND
Read Your King James Bible
AND
Constantly 
Fervently Pray!
Please Ask The Holy Spirit For Guidance
AND
Walk In Faith That Holds No Doubt
Along The Long 
Narrow 
AND
Tested
Holy Way!

Look Not Right
Nor Left!
Look Up
AND
Look Straight
At The Son
AND
From Licensed Evil Doers
Don't Just Walk 
BUT
Cut And Run!

Know Of A Surety That
Your Destruction
Is A Satanic Goal!
That Your Salvation
Has Been Bought
BUT
Can't Be Sold!
Your Will Given Over To God
Is Secure In Him
AND
There's Nothing That Satan
Can Wrest Away 
From Jesus Christ The King!

Don't Play Bingo
Nor Lotto
Nor Bet On A Horse!
Don't Consult Ouija Boards
Familiar Spirits
Nor Ghosts Made Of Colored Gas!
Trust In Him
Whose Heart Is Set On You
AND
Love Him Who Knows You Better
Than You Know You!

Liberty 
In Jesus Christ The Lord
Is Good For Eternity!
Liberty By Mammon 
Is A Thing That Will Always Pass!
Give To God His Glory!
He Is The First 
AND
He Is Last
The Alpha And Omega
On Whom
A Safe Lot For Eternal Life
Is Perfectly Cast!

Let Your Faith

Become Fire

To Consume You!

GIVING: Thanks!

I Could Live In The Elements!

I Could Live Out To Sea!

I Could Walk With That Damned Devil

AND

I Could Be Dead

Spiritually!

I Could Be Wise In My Own Eyes!

I Could Be Living Lavish By Lies!

I Could Be Working For Free For The Devil

AND

I Could Be Energetically

Denying Jesus Christ!

I Could Be Dancing With The Devil

I Could Have Shoes and No Legs

I Could Have Food But No Water

AND

I Could Be On The Street Corner Doing A Beg!

I Could Be On A Known Death Bed!

I Could Not Have Two Nickles To Rub Together

To Make A Thin Dime!

I Could Be Walking Forward Looking Backward

AND

Through Lack Of Faith

Be Ultimately Unable

To Cross The Separating Line!

I Could Be A Willing Sinner

I Could Be A Fake Saint

I Could Be Building Falling Bridges

AND

I Could Be A Self-Righteous Miscreant!

BUT ...

By God's Great Grace

AND

Jesus Christ's Sacrifice

AND

The Blessing

That Permitted Me

To Hear

AND

Heed

The Holy Spirit's Call

I Can

Give Heartfelt Thanks

Unto My Father In Heaven

By Whose Mercy

Today

I Have

Stomach-Filling Grub!

I Have Clean Water To Quench My Thirst!

I Have A Solid Roof Over My Head!

I Have Whole Shoes Upon My Two Able Feet

AND

A Clean Bed Upon Which I May Lie 

Without Fear Or Dread!

I Have Friends

AND

Family To Love Me!

I Have Faithful Friends

In The Body Of Jesus Christ!

I Have Work To Challenge My Mind

AND

I Have No Reason To Ever Behave

Like A Wild Horse's Behind!

I Am In Good Health

Which Is - Indeed - Great Wealth!

I Pray

AND

I Proselytize

AND

God Willing

No Matter How Much Christian-Killing

My Faith Will Never Be Placed

On An Old-Glory Shelf

AND

For This All

Almighty God Who Does

For Now

The Winds Of Strife Restrain

I Give You Thanks

With A Grateful Heart

Today

AND

I Beseech You

Please

Help Me To Never

Over Trivialities

Again

To Complain

AND

No Matter How Much I'm Goaded

Help Me To Never Jesus Christ's Holy Name

Profane!

Lord,

I Give You Praise

AND

I Give You Thanks

For

I Am Truly Blessed!

AMEN.

ROAD TO PERDITION : Pride + PRAYER: Lord, Teach Me To Be Humble

All False Gods
Are Brittle
AND
Of Time
A Total Waste!
Wood
Plaster
Stone
Paper
Silver
Or Gold
They Are All The Same
AND
Worshipping Them
Makes The Worshipper As One Insane
For An Inanimate Object
Cannot Help A Person
Nor Can It One's Origin
Nor Destination
Explain!

A Man Who Has A Man
As His God
Is Batting Zero
In The Eyes Of The Creator God!
Likewise The Person
Who Worships Self
Houses
Lands
Access And Prominence
Is A Fool
For It Is Readily Apparent
That Lying Satan
Over Such A One
Holds Total Dominance!

What Is Man Profited
If He Gains The Whole World
AND
Loses His Own Soul?
Where Is The Blessing
In The Blessing Gained
Outside Of Heaven's Fold?

Where Is The Soul's Salvation
Where The Soul Knows Not
The Living God
But Runs With The Big Dogs
AND
Plays Footsie With Satan
The Vividly Exposed Fraud?!

Rich In Goods!
Burdened With Trespasses!
Wasted By Iniquity
Living To Indulge In Abominable Practices
AND
Refusing
Through False Pride
To Ask The Living God
In Mercy
To Have Pity!
Such Is The Plight
Of Those Who Against
The Holy Spirit Fight
Preferring
To Sink Into
The Dank Darkness Of Gross Sin
- Unforgiven -
Rather Than To Bend
Bow
AND
Humble The Self
Before Its Savior
AND
Consciously Willing To Die
So As Not To Admit:

Oh, God In Heaven
I Know Not The Way
I Really Need You And That Is No Lie
So, Help Me, I Pray!

Lucifer Pretended To Be Good
Expressing Concern For The Residents Of Heaven!
Pride Made Lucifer Ugly
AND
Pride Cost Lucifer
An Eternal Home In Heaven
AND
Pride Will Cost Erring Man
A Home Prepared By Christ
- Especially For Him Whom He Loves -
In Highest Heaven!

Pride Makes Men 
Vicious And Mean
AND
Shows That Their  Hearts Are Unclean
AND
Their Willingness To Do Evil
Is By All Observers Plainly Seen!

Live, Oh, Man Foolish!
Why Would You Permit Searing Guilt
Bolstered By Unremitting Pride
To Cause You
Eternally To Die?
Submit Yourself To God!
Resist The Devil!
Acknowledge To Almighty God
That You Are A Mere Man
- Grossly Weak -
AND
Hold Nothing Back
From Him Who 
- Alone -
Your Dying Soul's Salvation Seeks!

Sink Your False Pride!
Speak To The Living God 
For In Him You May Freely Confide!
The Savior Is For You
AND
Waiting From You To Hear
So, Swallow The Fool's Pride
AND
Seek To Have Your Soul Saved
AND
Be No More Satan's Slave!

Residing Under The Agency Of The Holy Spirit
Supremely Satisfied
Should Be Your Soul's Sole Goal
So Choose, Therefore
In Jesus Christ To Live
For There's No Valid Reason Now
For You To Die With A Cold Heart 
AND
In The Great Day 
Forever Die
As One No Longer Presumptuous And Bold!

Jesus Saves From Sin
So Put The Idol Down!
Cast False Pride To The Ground
AND
An Authentic Victory Win!

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father,

I Come Before You As A Child

Often Prideful

And

Regularly Foolish

But, I Don't That Way Want To Die!

Have Mercy Upon Me!

Please Forgive Me, I Pray

And

Teach Me To Be Humble

And

Help Me To Ever Walk 

Before You That Way!

Hear My Cry

And Answer

According To Your Will

And In Your Way

In Jesus' Holy Name I Plead!

AMEN.

*********

The Real Difference

Between

Apparent Goodness

AND

Genuine Goodness

Is What Each Receives

In Their Ultimate

God-Given Reward!

WISDOM: Sinning Is No Delight!

He Who Made Us
Will Show Us No Mercy
AND
He Who Formed Us
Will Show Us No Favor
AND
All This Will Happen
In The Raining Down Of The Seven Last Plagues
If We Don't Choose In Advance
To Give Jesus Christ
In Our Hearts
Pride Of Place!

Mercy Is Currently Available
AND
Grace Is Still Available, Too
BUT
In The Day That Christ's Intercession
For Mankind Does Cease
All Self-Appointed
For Damnation
Will Not Be Singing Gleefully!

Now Is The Accepted Time!
Now Is The Day Of Grace!
Now Is The Time To Accept Salvation
AND
Now Is The Time To Tell Satan
Get Out Of Your Face!

Tomorrow Is Not To Man Promised!
Tomorrow's Sun May Never Rise!
Tomorrow's Grass Must Grow Today
AND
We Can't Go To Glory Tomorrow
If We Don't Do Today
The Will Of The Risen Reigning Christ!

By Wisdom
Build Your House On The Rock!
By Understanding Let Your Faith Be Established!
By Knowledge
Fill Your Heart With Prized And Precious Promises
AND
With Conviction
Hold To Him Who Your Condemnation
On That Vile Cross Took
As Does Says That Holy Good Book!

No Man
Can Serve God AND The Devil!
No Man
Can Be A Good Christian AND A Crook!
No Man
Can Take The Prerogatives
Of God Unto Himself
AND
Expect The Almighty God To Say:

Welcome, Friend!

Welcome, Good Servant Of Mine!

You For Me Did Your Very Best

So Enter My Joy

And Rest

With My Blessed!

We May Act AND Walk Holy
In Our Very Own Sight!
We May Walk Holy In The Day
AND
Play With Satan In Close Quarters
AND
In The Dark Of The Night!
We May Pretend To Ourselves
That Constant Sinning Is A Fine Delight
BUT
In God's Holy Sight
We Are Headed For Permanent Separation
From God
Into Eternal Night
Never To Enjoy 
The Glorious Son's Living Light!

That Is A Crying Shame!

God Is Good!
God Is Great!
Get Ready Now!
It Is Not Yet Too Late!
Please Commit Your Way
To Jesus Christ Our Savior
Before Offers Of Mercy Cease
AND
Heaven As A Scroll Rolls Back
AND
The Faithful Living
AND
The Risen Faithful Rise Up To Glory
In Peace And Joy
To With The Conquering King
Forever Be!

Clocks Run Forward!

Clocks Don't Turn Back!

Satan Is The Liar

AND

Will Any Human Attack

So

Protect Yourself

By Walking With The Living God!

Strange Work For God!

How Much Faith 

Is In Our Faithfulness?

How Much Faithfulness 

Is In Our Faith?

How Much Love 

Is In Our Happiness?

How Much Happiness 

Is In Our Love?

How Much Hope 

Is In Our Helplessness?

How Much Helplessness 

Is In Our Hope?

How Much Greed 

Is In Our Needfulness?

How Much Needfulness 

Is In Our Greed?

How Much Needfulness

Do We Feed Our Sinfulness

Before Faithlessness Leads To Christlessness

With Lying Satan

Riding Us Like Prize-winning Steeds?

************

"Come Unto Me
All Ye That Labor
AND
Are Heavy-Laden
AND
I Will Give You Rest!"
Is Not An Invitation Carelessly Tossed Out!
It Is An Invitation
To Live In AND For The Lord
AND
At His Returning
Shall He Find Faith
There Will Be The Heavenly Reward
Gloriously Given Out!

It Is Bandied About
By The Faithless Crew
That In Self Is Satisfaction
AND
A Bauble Or Two
BUT
In The Invitation To Rest
Is A Rejection Of The Fun Run
AND
A Willingness To Grinding Servitude
Where
Individuality Is Considered A Bad Attitude!

It Is Also Stated
By Those Who Are To Self
Slaves
That They Want No Part Of The God
Who Sodom And Gomorrah Did Raze
For
In Their Indictment
Of The Creator Of Us All
They Say
That God Made A Defective Creature
AND
As Such
He Is Responsible For Man's Fall!

These Also Rashly Point 
To The End Of All Things
AND
Accuse The Living God
Of Evil Speaking
Bullying
Grandstanding
AND
Threatening 
All Contrary-To-His-Will Men
With Annihilation In Eternal Hell Fire
If They Don't Bow To His Sovereign Will
AND
From Sinning Retire!

These Willful Wanderers
Call The Holy God Mean
AND
Take Pleasure In Unrighteousness
Just To See If
What God Says
Is What God Means!
The Attitude Is Such That Says
That If God Were Really Real
Destruction Would Be Instant
AND
Not To Be Meted Out 
Eternally
In Some Distant Day
AND
For This Very Reason
They Will Do What They Like
AND
Indulge In Abominable Displays
For
Life Is For Good Living
For We Are On The Earth For A Few Short Days
AND
In All This
We Can See Satan's Dirty Hands
AND
His Interpretation Of 
The Holy God's Attributes
AND
Ways!

Eternal Hell Fire Simply Means
No One Will Extinguish It!
It Doesn't Mean
Everlasting Burning
In Inextinguishable Flames!
That, Too
Is One Of Satan's Best Lying Efforts
To Show Man That
Almighty God
Is Like Him
A Sadistic Barbaric Yahoo!

Our Almighty God
Is Loving
Kind
Merciful
Even As He Is 
A God Of Justice, Too!
God Gives Each Man
Will
Way
AND
Opportunity
To Go To The Lord
AND
Say:

Father, I Am From This Day Willingly Following You!


When We Do What We Want
Against Law
Common Sense
Instruction
Direction
AND
Correction
We Pay The Price
BUT
When We Do What The Lord Desires
Letting The Holy Spirit
Be Our Guide
We To Heaven Aspire
AND
We Avoid God's Prepared-For-Unrepentant-Sinners
Hell Fire!

God Offers A Blessing!
God Offers A Curse!
Blessing Or Cursing
It Is Up To Man
To Choose A Verse
In The Hymn
That Is Sung
In The Life Of All Men
AND
It Is Up To Each One
Who Will
Over Him
Say The "Amen!"

God's Blessing ... Blesses!
God's Cursing ... Curses!
AND
None But The Living God
Can A Curse Reverse!

We Are Called To Faithfulness
Truthfulness
Honesty
Obedience
AND
Love
AND
We Are Called To Worship
Honor
AND
Praise
The God Of Heaven
Through Whom We Have Length Of Days
AND
Abiding Heavenly Love That Faith Pays!

We Were Made
For Jesus Christ's Pleasure
AND
In Him We Have Life
AND
We Are Not To Give Unto Satan
Our Blood-Bought Selves
To Be His Stolen Treasure
AND
It Is Time
That We Take His Measure
AND
Mark Him Off
Our Lives Accounted-For-Good
Accounting Ledger!

God Cannot
Will Not
Save Man
In His Known
Relished
Unconfessed
Unrepented Of Sin
AND
Those Who Refuse To Go Humbly To God
Will See God Himself
At The Second Resurrection
- That Of The Filthy
AND
The Unrighteous -
Do A Strange Work
To Clean The Earth
Even Though
It Is Not His Desire
That Anyone
Should Perish!

Think ... Before You Act!

Get The Facts

AND

Walk Right And Holy

AND

Do Not Like Lot's Wife

At Sinning Look Back!

GREAT LESSONS: Silent Influence!

The Silent Influence
Of The Daily Life
Is To All A Great Lesson!
Lessons Taught
Are Lessons Learned
AND
To All Living
Such 
Should Be Of Concern!

I Give!
You Take!
I Show No Love!
You Express Hate!
I Walk As A Fake
AND
You Show To Others
My Filmed Outtakes
AND
Ape
For Others
That Which Is Hard
To Tolerate!

I Give!
You Take!
I Show The Love
That Comes From Above!
I Share Peace
Provision
Joy
AND
Justice, Too
AND
I Walk In The Path Of 
The Light Of Him Who
In Our Praises Delight
Looking To The Great Day
When Hopeful Faith
Becomes Beautiful 
In
Expressed Sight!

I Give!
You Take!
I Offer Up Daily Prayers
AND
Share
The Living Word
Of The Creator God
Who Made Us
For Himself
In Abiding Love!

I Live
What I Believe!
I Give To You
What From Him
I Blessedly Received
AND
I Humbly Ask Of You
Even As I Pray To Him
Who Asked Us
The Good Word To Share:

Will You Give The Good Word

So That Another

May God's Goodness Receive

So That

Like A Pebble

On The Water's Surface

A Ripple

Will Broadly Extend

AND

Capture 

The Hearts Of Others

So That Into All The World

The Good News

The Call To Salvation May Go

For A Witness

AND

The End May Come

So That To The Heavenly Home

We May

Redeemed

Go

To Bask In Christ

In Heaven's Eternal Glow?

Heaven Awaits!
Jesus Christ IS Returning
AND
He Is Even At The Gate
AND
It Won't Be Opened
Nor Closed
Late!

So ...

Spare A Word
For Those Who Hate!
Tell The Good News
So That They Won't Suffer
Satan's Just Fate!
Sing The Song Of Salvation
For
It Is Not Yet Too Late!

SO ...

Spread The Invitation
AND
Request All To Save 
The Unknown Date
For  
Of That Time
What We Know
For Certain Sure
Is That It Will Be Soon
AND
It Could Be At Morning
At Night
Or 
At Noon!

Please
Don't Get Upset
If They Call You Looney-Tunes
Just Stick To Your Bold Message
AND
Joyously Say:

Jesus Christ

Is Coming Soon!

God Blesses Me!
I Bless You!
Will You Bless Another
So That There Be Many
To Assemble
By The Tide-less Sea?
