They Are All In The Room! + Prayer

Pride
Follies Of Sin
Deceitfulness Of Riches
Gift Of Life
Well-Dressed Temptation
Free Mercy
Grace S. Sufficient
Willful Sin
Jesus Saves
D. Savior S. Calling
Plain Truth
Do As I. Please
Living By Faith
Confess N. Repent
Available Grace
Way Of Escape
Repent N. B. Baptised
Contrite Heart
Trust N. Obey
AND
God Forgives
Are All In The Room
Present
AND
Accounted For!

No Excuse For Sin
Keeps Watch!

Believe N. Live
Keeps Record Of The Life's Event
AND
Brazen Deception
Aka Beelzebub The Bold
AND
His Minions
- Hearts Stone Cold -
Are Trying To Breach The True Foundation
Trying To Tear Down Prayer Changes Things
Trying To Rewrite Sealed N. Settled-Truth
BECAUSE
Free Will
AND
Own Choice
Were Up For Grabs!

They Like To Turn Living Tissue
Into Bare Scabs!

To Put It Mildly ...

Heart O'Flesh
Was In The Straight Betwixt Those Two
The Rock ... Of Ages
AND
DThe Hard Place ... To Damnation!

Decisions! Decisions!
Decisions Must Daily Be Made:

Fall On The Rock ... Of Ages
AND
Be Broken
To Be Saved
Which Way Is Known Hard
AND
Painful
AND
Wearying
BUT
Offers Peace And Rest
AND
Forgiveness Of Sin
Sure Salvation
Provision
Protection
Correction Direction
Pleasant Work
AND
With Faithful Endurance
- When The Last Trump Shall Sound -
Redemption
Glorification
Immortality
AND
- Obviously -
Eternal Life
In The Great God's Paradise!
That Way Ain't Easy!

It Should Be Noted
That If The Rock ... Of Ages Falls On Him
It Is Game Forever Over!

If He Willingly Chooses
To Go To The Hard Place ... To Damnation
The Party Is On!
Liberty Is License!
No Rules
All Is Momentary Reward
Bright Lights
Non-Stop Stimulation
Action
A Camera Or Two
Access Reach And Grasp
Live Life Hard Fast And Loose
And ...!

BUT ...!
What If ...?!
Then, Again ...!


He Left The Splendor Of Heaven!
He Died For You On Mount Calvary! 
He Took Your Stain
To Make You Clean Again! 
He Is Calling You! 
His Life Is Yours Free To Gain!

******


Rules! Rules! 
Too Many Rules! 
Live As Your Self Likes!
It Is All Good! 
Feelings Are Real! 
When The Party Is Over  ... Who Cares?! 
Good Night Is The Last Night!
Come And In Gay Abandon Dance!
Take The Night Flight!
The Only Thing That Happens Is Soul Blight!



Lord,
I Need Help!
Have Mercy On Me!
I, Here, Fall On You!
Save Me!
From Sure Damnation I Now Flee!

Beelzebub Is A Liar!
He Keeps Harping On The Lie
Of Man's Immortal Soul!
He Keeps Saying
That You Have To Save All Men
So Right-Living Is The Commodity Oversold!

Father,
I Need You
I Desire Your Life
Help Me!
I Am Pleading!
Lead Thou Me!
Guide Me!
I Desire To Survive The Strife!

The Prayer Of Faith
Availed Heart O'Flesh Much
AND
He Walked Away From
Willful Sinning And Such
AND
He Continues His Daily Walks With The Faithful God
Knowing That With Faithful Work
AND
Endurance
He Will
At The Appointed Time
INHERIT
INHABIT

The Great Reward!

What Will YOU Choose?!

Take Up Thy Cross ...!?!

What's Going On?!
What's The Meaning Of All These Wooden Crosses?!
Since When Do You Wear A Silver Cross?!

I Have A Gold One!

What Is This?!

Pastor Said That Everybody Must Bear Their Cross!

What!?!

He Asked The Question:


Must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone  ...?!

... And You All Believed He Meant Bearing
Wearing
A Literal Cross!?!

Sure!

He Plain As Day Said:


Now Is The Appointed Time!
Now Is The Day Of Salvation!
Take Up Your Cross
Your Burden
And Faithfully Follow 
Follow After The Lord Jesus Christ!

What's Wrong With You People?!

What Do You Mean?!

Do Any Of You Ever Crack Open A Bible?!
I Quote:





You Obviously
Are Not 
RIGHTLY DIVIDING 
The Word!
AND
You All Ought To Be Ashamed Of Yourselves!

Ashamed For What?!
I Didn't Kill Anybody!

Come On!
What Are You Talking About?!

Didn't Your Pastor Explain What
Taking Up Your Cross And Following Christ Means?!

Sure! That's Why We Are Carrying These Crosses!

Lord, Make Peace!
Let Me Ask You A Question:

What Kind Of Life Did Jesus Live?!

A Life Of Self-Abnegation
Caring For Others
Teaching Others
Healing Others
And Ultimately Dying For Others!

Excuse Me?!
What Is Self-Abegnation?!

Self-Ab-Ne-Ga-Tion!

Jesus Christ
In Self-Abnegation
AND
As Written In Scripture
Was
Meek And Lowly ... Of Heart
Not Proud
Submissive ... In Giving His Will
To His Father
AND
Obedient ... Unto Death
On The Physical Cross!

Jesus Set Aside His Self
AND
In Despising The Shame We Placed Upon Him
Died On The Cross
For Us
Whom He Was Not Ashamed To Call Brethren!

Self-Abnegation Is The Cross 
That Man Should Bear
IF
We Will To Be Like Christ!

This Pile Of Wood 
That You All Are Toting Around Means Nothing!
Those Gold And Silver Crosses You're Wearing
Are ... Are ... Just Decorations
Meaningless
Useless
Good For Nothing But Getting Jewelers Rich!

Whose Character Are You Wearing!
Can The World See Christ In You!
Are You Selfless!
Or Are You
- True To Human Nature -
Totally Selfish?!

Well, Ahhh ...

Ummm ...

Exactly!

Outward Adorning!
White Washed Tombs
Filled With Dead Men's Bones!

You Don't Have To Be So Cruel!

I Am Not Being Cruel!
Somebody Has To Tell You All The Truth!
Who Are You Really Serving?!

Pastor Says ...!

Oh, Lord, In Heaven
Save Us From
Another "Pastor Says!"

Can The Pastor Save You?!

No! Of Course Not!

Then Who Can Save You?!

Jesus Saves!

So What Does Jesus Say?!

To Obey Is Better Than To Sacrifice!

The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth!

Wisdom Is The Principal Thing!

Let No Man Steal Your Crown!

In All Your Getting, Get Understanding!

If You Know All That
What's With This Pastor Say That And That?!

Chagrined, They Held Their Heads Down.

One Voice
Speaking To Their Shame, Said:

I Guess We're Just Lazy Thinkers!

Another Voice:

Brethren,
We Really Should Be Ashamed Of Ourselves!

We Are The Hearers And Not The Doers Of The Word!

Ohhhh!
If I Had My Way
I Would Beat All Of You At The Bottom Of Your Feet!

How Mean!
That Would Really Hurt!

Yes!
But I'd Never Have To Teach You
The Same Lesson Again!

You Do Have A Point!

Lazy Thinking In A Christian
Is A Vile And Abhorrent Thing!
Let's Not Have This Conversation Again, Okay?!

For Real!

Wow! I Feel Better!

I Feel As Though A Burden Has Been Lifted!

It Was!
No More Toting Around This Fire Wood!

AMEN!

Time To Set Aside Self!

Oh, Dear!
THAT, My Friend
Is Hard Work!

Lord, Help Us!

He Will, My Friend! 
You Can Trust Him!

Faithful Man?!




In The Tribe Called Mankind
In The Family Called Friend
In The Household Called Christian
In The Man Called Faithful
Was Sin!
Bold Sin
Willful Sin
Death-Dealing Sin
AND
All Without Justification!

Come On!
There Is Never Any Justification For Sin!

You Know That 
And I Know That
BUT
There Is A Point To Be Made Here!

Okay. I Await Edification!

Those Old Hebrews
- The Christian Family Of Today -
Had A Work To Do
AND
They Were Given Instructions Most Clear:

Go To Jericho
The Abominable Estate
Where Gross Challenge
To The Eternal God
Is Wittingly Exercised
AND
Level It!
Level It!
Level It To The Ground!
And Don't Mess Around!

Only Rahab 
The God-Believing Helpful Harlot
- For True-Hearted Help -
AND
Her Family In Her House
Would Could
Walk Through Safety's Promised Door!

Everything Else Breathing
Was Marked For Death!
Everything Else Was Marked 
For Burning's Hot Breath
AND
What Could Not Be Burned
- Gold Silver Copper Iron -
Was To Be Dedicated
To The Use Of God's Temple
As A Sacrifice To The Holy God!
In Short,
No Man Shall Grease His Own Palm!
Yes! That Was The Specified Plan!

But ...

As We Too Often Hear And See
Some Greedy Gus
Is Always Stealing
And Hiding The Loot Under Stuff
Inside And Under The Floor Of His Canopy
AND
Causing The Apparently Innocent
To Pay For The Temporarily Concealed
Guilty!

But Know This ...

The Living God
Is The Keeper
Of ALL Doors!
AND
You
Me
Nor We 
Can Build A Sound House
With Level Floors
IF
We Are Building On That Other Foundation
That The Living God Will Not Secure!

So Much To Do! 

So Little Time! 

If Man Will Take In Wisdom's Education
Life On This Earth
Following The Faithful Shepherd
The Holy God
Will Be Perfectly Sublime! 

But ...

What Is Your Point, Again!

Go Bold
AND
Do As YOU Are Told!
No Arms In Disobedience Should YOU Fold!
No Steps Taken
Should Be Other Than Those Prescribed
AND
YOU Will Achieve Heaven's Tried Gold!

I Feel You, Man!
I Feel You!
Give Me Your Hand!

Wrong Doing
May Be Hidden From Man ... For A Time!
BUT
The All-Seeing Ever-Present God
Sees What You Are Doing 
Every Single Time!

The Unpardonable ... Sin!

The Prophet Balaam Beor
The Benjamite King Saul
AND
The Disciple Judas Iscariot
Grieved Away
The Holy Spirit Of God!

These Three Committed
The Unpardonable Sin!
These Three Treated
With The Fraud!
These Three ... Witnesses
Are Our Plain Examples
Showing That
No Good Comes
When One's Life Is Void Of 
The Comfort
The Peace
The Presence Of 
The Holy Spirit Of The Eternal
The One
The Living God!

Also, Note That ...

Lying To The Holy Spirit
Comes With A Death Sentence
I Can Tell You This Is True
For
Ananias And Sapphira
Found That Out The Hard Way
AND
Their Record Is In Holy Writ
As A Clear Caution
To Me And To You!

Jesus Christ Said To His Disciples:

I Will Not Leave You Comfortless!
I Will Send You Another Comforter!

Plainly Saying
That We Need Comfort
AND
Making Clear That
The Only Comfort
For Man's Tried
AND
Dying Soul
Comes From
The Holy Spirit Of God!

Those Who Like King Saul
Dabble In Witchcraft
AND
Indulge In Willful Disobedience
Looking For The Man Of God 
Long Dead
To Rise Up Upon Man's Request
AND
Able Assistance And Comfort Give
Will Receive Into Themselves Sure Damnation! 

Look At The Holy Record!

King Saul's Slide Started
With A Little Disobedience
Immediately Followed By A Plain Lie
Followed By
Cast The Blame On Another
Followed By
Persecution Of The Innocent
Then The Execution Of
The Priests Of The Holy God
AND ALL BECAUSE
He Had No Soul Rest
No Spirit Peace
AND
Only In Pushing The Envelope
If You Will
Could He Find A Facsimile Of Relief
Until ... Until
The Request For A Banned Witch
AND
The Visit To
The Witch Of Endor
Brought Him Too Late
To His Senses
AND
Left Him Abjectly Humbled
In Deed Accursed
A Suicide
A Trophy
A Head On A Philistine Spike
On A Public Roadside!

Balaam Beor
Greedy For Gain
A Prophet Said To Be Of God
But A Prophet
Ever Looking For The Highest Reward
Who Beat The Faithful Ass
Until God Gave Unto It Voice!

Yet ... And Still
The Prophet Was Urged On By Profit
BUT
Didn't Long Live To Enjoy It!

When The Prophet Of God
Resists The Prompting Of The Holy Spirit
AND
Willingly Sells The People Of God
To An Idol-Loving Pagan King
For A Reward
You Can Be Sure
He Has His Own Damnation Secured
Because
He Has Grieved The Holy Spirit Away
AND
Having Been Left To His Own Lustful Will
Did
His Own Soul Damn
His Own Soul Kill!

Judas Iscariot Joined Himself To Jesus
BUT
His Were The Ways Of The Fraud
Looking
For Power And Prestige
Seeking 
Into Things
Way Above His Pay Grade
AND
Being A Thief
Greedy
He Worked His Own Damnation
By Being A Fully Involved Participant 
In Obvious Sin
AND
To Sin
The Devil's Willing Slave!

The Lord Jesus Washed Judas' Feet
Offering Forgiveness
In Exchange For Necessary Repentance
BUT
Stubborn
Judas Turned Down
Christ's Loving Entreaty
AND
The Very Devil
Freely Entered Into Him
AND
He Left The Presence Of Jesus
AND
It Was Night ... Time
AND
NIGHT
... In His Soul
AND
He Ended Up A Body Burst Open
A Suicide! 

Sigh ...

So Much For 30 Pieces Of Silver
When He Could Have Had
Heaven's Tried Gold!

No Human
No Matter How Lofty
No Matter How Crafty
Can Thrive
Without The Holy Spirit Of God
AND
All Who Look TO Satan
For Their EXAMPLE Of THRIVING Prosperity
Should Look AT Satan's Record
AND
Thereby
Be Warned!

A Human Being Without God's Holy Spirit
Is A Demon
Clothed
In Human Flesh!
All Demons Are Damned! 
ANDThis Truth Stands
The Bible Test!

All Human Beings 
Living Without The Grounding Spirit Of The Holy God
Are Damned Once!
Damned Twice!
So 
Be Very Careful, My Friend
Of Whom You PERMIT To Run Your Life
As You Face The Great Controversy's Strife!

Jesus Saves!
Satan Does Not!
Jesus Saves!
Satan Belongs
To The Damned-For-Eternity Lot!
Jesus Saves ... To The Uttermost
AND 
His Pardon Is To All FREE 
EXCEPT 
To Those Who Commit
Holy Spirit Blasphemy!



VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Building Blocks For Man ...!

Truth!
Purity!
Holiness!
Are Building Blocks
AND
Stumbling Blocks
In The Journey Of Man
Be It To Heaven's Paradise
Or
Hell's Damnation!

You And Your Foolish Talk!
Go Away Already!
Building Blocks Cannot ALSO Be Stumbling Blocks
AND
Heaven And Hell Are What We Make Them To Be
So Stop Spewing Your Lies!

If I Lie I Die
AND
In The Resurrection
By Judgment
All Unrepentant Liars
- All Unrepentant Bold Sinners -
Burn
AND
Are Consumed
Never To Rise Again!

I Know You Are Really Lying Now 
For
The Known Word Is
That Dead Sinners Are Presently In Eternal Torment
With Satan Turning Them On A Spit
Until They Have Learned Their Lesson And Repented
And
THEN
They Are Forgiven 
And Go To Paradise! 

Lord, Help Us! 

My Dear
That Is A Lie Of The Devil
To Make God Look Like A Sadist
To Make Satan Look Like A Savior
To Bind Men In Bad Behavior!

Indeed! 

Nobody Wants To Serve A God 
Who Gleefully Tortures Weak Men! 

Weak Men
Have A Way Out Of Sin
But
They Have To Believe The True 
AND
Living Word 
First
AND
Start Walking Away From Sin
AND
Unto Him Who Is Able To Save One
To The Uttermost!

So Why Can't He Just Save Us Outright?! 

It Is A Matter Of Faith!

Faith Is Necessary! 

If You Believe ... Do!
If You Trust ... Walk! 
If You Will To Live ... Die
The Death To Self
AND
Live For Him
Who Is Not A Man
Who Cannot Lie
Who Loves
Who Cares
AND 
In Whom Is Hope
Help
Healing 
Salvation 
Forgiveness
Blessing
Peace 
AND
Rest
WHEN
We Confess Our Known Sin
For He Is Just ... 

... And Faithful! 

... To Forgive Our Sin

... AND Cleanse Us
From ALL Unrighteousness! 

Brother, 
Please Do Not Be Deflected 
By Feints And Outright Lies! 
God Is Not The Author Of Confusion! 

The Living God
Is The God Of Order
AND
His Word Cannot Be Changed! 
His Will Cannot Be Circumvented! 

He Has Said To Us:

Let No One Deceive You! 
Let No Man Steal Your Crown! 

Walk In The Light
The Light Of Truth
AND
All Strongholds 
God Will Cast Down! 

Deny Self! 
Deny That Liar Satan! 
Know THE Truth! 
Truth Sets Free! 
Walk In Wisdom! 
God Will Uphold Thee! 

Promises Are Given
Paid For In Blood
Bequests Are Made To The Faithful
From 
The God Who Is Love! 

Love Is Kind
Easy To Be Entreated
Used
Please Take Heed To Yourself
AND
The Liar's Torment Refuse! 

God Is Not Slack! 
He Keeps His Word! 
He Blesses! 
He Curses! 
BUT
He Tells All
BEFORE
You Choose To Become A Willing Member
Of The Lost Goat Herd! 

Salvation Is By Choice! 
Damnation Is Not By Chance! 
Salvation Is Not By Chance! 
Damnation Is By Choice
Riding On The Decision Of
Whose Word
You Decide
In Your Heart
To Let Have The Strong Voice!

Jesus Saves! 
The Devil Damns! 
Satan In Accusation Rails! 
Jesus Christ In Love
For 
The Seeking Soul ... Calms! 

So?! 

Work Out
Your OWN Soul's Salvation 
With Fear
AND
Trembling!

I Hear That!

AMEN!

HAPPY SABBATH + Wisdom Builds The House!




The Fear Of The Lord IS
The Beginning Of Wisdom
AND
The Foundation Of All True Prosperity
AND
All Who Choose To Depart Therefrom
By Their Own Self-Willed Decision
Will Be Recipients Of God's Wrath
Without Mercy
To Temper Its Severity!

Wisdom Builds The House!
Folly Tears It Down!
Sloth Never Gets The Foundation Started!
Double-Mindedness Does A To-Build Not-To-Build Consider
AND
Vanity Starts Building
Before The House Plan Has Any Character!

Those Who Would Fear The Lord God
Know
To Count The Cost
AND
To Reason With Their Maker!
They Know That The Wise Use Of Knowledge
Gives Them Power
To Fill The Rooms Of Their House
With Precious And Pleasant Things
- Those Blessings Of The Holy God -
AND
Not The Minutiae Of Lustful Acquisition
Compliments Of The Roaring And Wily Fraud!

Consider This ...

All Things Work Together
For Our Good
AND
Nothing Can Separate Us
From The Living God's Love
When We Love The Lord
When God Is Our Portion Forever
When We Are The Called According To His Purpose
When The Lord Is Our Shepherd
When His Word Is Both Lamp And Light
When We Seek Wisdom
AND
Choose To Get Understanding
When We Forsake Sin
AND
Self
When We Humble Ourselves
UNDER
The Mighty Hand Of God
When We Walk Holy
When We Walk By Faith
AND
Consider The Lilies
When We Say:

Though He Slay Me
YET
Will I Trust Him!


When We Remember That
God Will Bring Every Work Into Judgment
WITH
Every Secret Thing
Be It Good Or Evil
When We Accept That
Only The Fool Says
IN
His Heart
That Is Deceitfully Wicked
That There Is No God
When We Recognize
That The People Imagine Vain Things
When We Trust God's Grace
When We Believe That
God Is Merciful
When We Accept
With Loving Heart
That
The Lord Will Provide
When We Cast Our Every Care On Him
When We Choose To Believe God
AND
Look Up
To Live!

When We Stand On The Word That
Says:

I Know That My Redeemer Lives
AND
Lives To Make Intercession For Me!


When We Say In The Confidence Of
Tried Faith:

What Can Man Do Unto Me?!


When We Say
Of A Surety:


There Is A Time For Everything
Under The Sun!


When We Bless God
AND
Walk In The Way To Life
When We Pray Without Ceasing
When Our Words Are Seasoned
With The Salt That Is Truth
When We Recognize
That Our Maker 
AND
Healer Redeemer Is God
When The Holy Jesus Is Our Only Answer
When We Bless God And Grow

When We Work
KNOWING That Night Is Coming
When We Put Away Childish Things
When We Accept That
We Can Do All Things Through Christ
Who Strengthens Us
When We Believe The Word That Says
Tomorrow Is NOT Promised
When We Celebrate That
Victory Over Sin
IS
In Christ Jesus
When We Believe That
Satan Has No Portion
In The Child Of God
When We Love Not The Things Of The World
When We Command Satan
In Jesus Christ's Name
To Get Himself Behind Us
When We Believe That
Jesus Paid It All For Our Sin
When We Do Not Doubt
When We Do The Will Of Him
Who Sends Us Into The World
To Preach The Gospel
Believing That
He Who Saves Souls Is Wise
When We Keep The Faith
To Finish Our Course
So That We May Hear:

Well Done, Good And Faithful Servant! 
Enter In To The Joy Of Thy Lord!


After
This Mortal Puts On Immortality
When The Trumpet Shall Sound
AND
The Dead Who Now Know Nothing 
Are Raised Up
To Rise Up
AND 
We Join Them
AND
Meet The Lord
In The Air
On The Great Getting Up Morning
To Be Forever
With The Lord!

Isn't It Amazing
What A Little Fear
A Godly Fear Of The Almighty God
Will Do
For A Child Of The Dust
Who Stands Up For Jesus Christ
Even Unto Death
By Redeeming The Time
AND
Accepting That The Days Are Very Evil
AND
Believes That
Only Jesus Christ ... Saves?!

GIVING THANKS: We Can Do It!

Thanks Giving Is Not Just A Day
For A Year!
Thanks Giving Should Be
For Us All
A Year For A Day
For
On One Auspicious Day
The King Of Life 
Died
So That We May Forever 
Live
AND
In His Blessed Known Love
Forever Contented
In Thanks Giving ... Singing
Gratefully Abide!

Let Us Not Be Of That Perverse Generation
Faithless
Filthy
Filled With Superfluous Naughtiness
AND
Wallowing
In The Known Effects Of The Curse
BUT
Let Us Be 
The Truly Thankful Man
Who
In True Thanks Giving To God
Extends
A Word Of Hope
AND
A Hand Of Help
AND
Casting Away
The Bread Of Strife
By Lifting Up
The Available Cup Of Christ's Salvation
To Feed The Spiritually Hungry
AND
Physically Dying
All Over The Land!

From The Cradle To The Grave
From The Womb To The Tomb
From Peace To Rest
From The Land Of Hope
To The Home Of The Blessed
Please Let Us Make Jesus Our Good Portion
Whether We Live On Dry Land
In Deep Ditch
Or
Vast Ocean!

Bless God!
Bless A Sister And Brother, Too!
Trust God
AND
Pointedly
Forsake The Lying Other
Who Is 
Roaring
AND
Valiantly Trying
To Mamaguy Both Me And You!

We Can Do It
Because Jesus Christ Says We Can!
We Can Do It
IF
We On The Living Word
With Thanks Giving
AND
In Humility
Stand!

Satan Is The Consummate Liar
The Deceiver
The Wannabe God
Who Is Soon Forever
To Be The Has-Been
While We
Loving Trusting Faithful
Shall Inhabit
The Great Reward
Because We Walked In Obedience
Ever Thankful
To Our Blessed Lord!

As One Truly Blessed
Be Ever Thankful And ... For Others, Care!
Be Ever Thankful And ... Your Bounty, Share!
Be Ever Thankful And ... In Righteousness, Dare
To Live Your Life In Godly Fear
Of
The Lord Jesus Christ
Our Lamp Light And Life
Who Is Soon Returning
AND
To Us
Is Very Near!

Say 
"Thanks!"For What You Get Today From Others
BUT
Continually Give Thanks To The Almighty God
For Your Daily Blessing
AND
For That For Which You Live
In Certain Hope
Sure
On The Great Day
- From The Glorious King -
To Personally Attain
By Faithful Works' Gain!

GIVE GOD MORE THANKS!!
