Sin ... And Forgiveness!

Think Deeply About This ...

He Who Had No Sin Became Sin ... For Us!

He Who Is Alive Forever

Died To Give Life To Us

Who Are Dead In Sin And Trespasses!

The Question Is:

How Do We Make The Connection 
To Make The Transaction Real!?! 

Jesus Christ Make The Infinite Deposit

In The Bank Of Eternity: 

We Are Mortal Men, Sinners, Who Live In Time! 

How Are We Going To Make The Needful Withdrawal

So That We May Have Our Necessary Food

And

Directions
Travelling Mercies

Transportation Expenses

Shelter
Protection! 

How Do We Get From Present Living For Hell

To Living To Arrive At The Future Heavenly Home

When There Is Gulf Fixed Betwixt The Two!?!

Lest We Tremble And Fear In Despair 

Let's Remember Jacob's Ladder

The Bridge Between Earth And Glory

The Cross-Bar On The Cross Of Christ

The Benediction Aka It Is Finished

Which Capped The Upper Room Prayer Of Consecration:

Where I Am

There Shall Also My Servants Be! 

Brethren,

We Have A Job Of Work To Do

So Let's Get To Stepping
Because
There Is No Sinner Going To Be Where Jesus Christ Is!
We've Got A House-Cleaning To Accomplish!

All Lawlessness Is Sin! 

All Humans Are Sinners! 

Some Sins Are Natural 
Because 
We Are Born With The Inclination To Sin! 
Some Sins Are Cultivated! 

Some Sins Are Marked As 
Going Where You Shouldn't Go Aka Transgressions

And 

Other Sins Are Called iniquity Aka Planned Sins! 

All Sins Are Forgiven 

... If We Confess ... 

Except For The Sin Of Blasphemy 
Against The Holy Spirit Of Truth 

By Whom We Are Sealed Against The Second Death! 

Forgiveness Is Free!

The Only Person 
Who Doesn't Need Forgiveness For Known Sin 
Is 
Almighty God! 

The Sins That We Do Not Confess Cannot Be Forgiven 

And 

Stay On The Books Of Remembrance In Heaven! 

The Sins That We Humbly Confess 
And 

Repent Aka Turn Away From

Are Cast Into The Sea Of God's Forgetfulness
Never To Be Recalled!

Make The Days Of Your Life Count!

 

Beloved,

We Cannot Climb The Ladder

Cross The Bridge

Escape Time

Or Enter Eternity With The Stench Of 
The Load Of Sin Attached To Our Persons! 

No Escaping The Facts ... 

We Sin By Thought, Word And Deed Daily

So Let's Make It A Habit 
To Confess Are Repent Of Our Sins Daily 

Because 

Tomorrow Is Not Promised To Any Of Us

Our Name Is Not Jesus Christ

And 

Our Tongues Are Not Bibles 
Aka The Preserved Word Of The Eternal God! 

Let's Believe The Living Word

Accept And Gratefully Use Our Gift Of Forgiveness

And 

Be At Peace With And In Our Savior 
And 

Coming King

Jesus Christ The Lord!
Soon, Very Soon, The Last Trumpet Will Sound!

Dead Men

Can't Praise Almighty God

And

Can't Ask

For Forgiveness!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Almighty God's Sanctification Versus Christened Sin

The Pastors, Priests And The Pope Of Rome

Are Getting Boldly Presumptuous:

They Are Sanctifying Sin

Which Is An Oxymoron

And

Self-Defeating

And

Plainly Shows That It Is Satan, Himself 

For Whom They Are Openly Working!

The Word Of The Lord States:

"Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth

Thy Word Is Truth!"

So I Cannot See How It Is Possible

For Anything ... By The Word Of Man

To Be Sanctified ... Set Apart

For Holy Use

Or For Sin To Be Made The Thing Holy!

Sanctification 

Is 

The Work Of The Holy Spirit 

Against Whom No Blasphemy Is Forgiven!

What The Almighty Calls Sin

No Man Born Of A Woman

Or Inspired By The Dragon 

That Serpent Known Devil

- Our Adversary, Satan -

Can Ever Be Made A Ring Of Salvation!

What Jesus Christ Calls Sin

Shall Remain Sin

And

No Hireling Shepherd

Uttering Prayers Using Corrupt And Deceitful Words

Can Turn The Truth Of Almighty God Into A Lie

Christening Pork And Calling It Beef!

A Man Will Never Be A Woman

A Woman Will Never Be A Man

Same-Sex Unions Will Never Be Blessed By Almighty God

And

Ordaining Out And Proud Homosexual Priests

The Age-Old Temple Prostitutes

Will Never Obtain The Approval Of The Unchanging God!

People ... Believers

Who Let Others Do Their Thinking For Them

Who Refuse To Follow The "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Are Working Out Their Own Damnation 

And

Propping Up The Kingdom Of Satan

The Notoriously Lied King Of Sin

The God-Fraud!

By The Word Of The Living God

You Shall Know The Truth

And

The Truth Shall Set You Free!

Altering The Word Of God ... On Paper

Does Not ... Cannot ... Will Not

Alter The Word Of Almighty God

Who Is On The Universe's Throne In Heaven!

Beware Of Those Who Would Take 
The True And Living God Off Of His Throne

To Protect Gross Passion

Inordinate Affection 

Power And Position!

Do Not Permit Yourself To Become A Pawn

A Disposable Unit In Their Satisfy-Self-And-Mock-Jesus Factory!

When You Love Your Sin

And

Your Self

More Than You Love Your Creator

Savior, Sanctifier, Provider, Redeemer

Lord, God, Judge And King

You Are Walking With And Like Satan

And

Shall Surely Receive His Same And Just Reward!

Sanctification 
Is 
The Work Of The Holy Spirit

And

Is For The Duration Of The Life Of The Saint

Who Is Seeking After Christ And His Righteousness 
And

Who Is Not Practicing Sin And Lauding Self

And 
Upholding Wickedness For Putrid Pleasure!

The Soul Being Sanctified By Almighty God

Through Jesus Christ The Lord

By The Working Of The Holy Spirit

Is 

Faithful To The Eternal Word Of The Everlasting King

And

Is Actively The Works Of The Flesh Forsaking!

He Is Being Saved From Sin!

Jesus Christ Will Not Save Any Man, Woman, Child

Prophet, Priest, Pastor, Pope, Prince, Preacher

Who Lives And Dies In Known ... Unconfessed

Unrepented Sin

And

All Who Teach Mankind To Sin

To Fly In The Face Of The Living God

For Earthly Reward

Shall Pay For The Sins Of The Souls

That They Have Stolen From The Love Of Almighty God! 

Almighty God Is Jealous Of His Name

His Character

And

He Does Not ... Will Not

Share His Glory With Created Gods

Be They Wood, Stone 

Bronze, Silver, Gold, Paper, Plastic

Flesh Or Lying Fallen Angels

Those Unseen Wicked

Damned-For-Eternity Evil Spirits! 

PRAYER:

Father, 

As You Did At The Prayer Of

The Prophet Elisha 

For The Benefit Of His Young Servant

Please Open Your Faithful People's Eyes

To The Truth That Saves

Who Have Not Made

A Covenant With Death

And

Who Are The Inheritors Of

Christ's Sure Salvation! 

Have Mercy, Lord, On Us!

AMEN. 

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

Thought For The Week Ahead:

The God Of Grace
The God Who Showers Unmerited Favor Upon Us
Is 
God Forever 
And 
The Very God Who In Mercy And Abiding Love 
Which Will Not Let Us Go Or Forsake Us
Is 
Calling Us To His Side To Be With Him Forever! 

The Love That Jesus Christ Has For Us 
Is 
Infinite And Works Doing All To Help Us 
To Get Home To His Side! 

We Have Nothing In Ourselves ... Or Of Ourselves
That He Has Not Given Us To Help Us Cooperate With Him 
Save Our Free Will 
And 
Freedom Of Choice! 

Let Us ... For Love
Exercising Our Gift Of Faith
And
Recognizing Our Need Of Him Who Saves
Choose To Walk With The King Of Love 
Taking Him As Our Everlasting Portion! 

Let Us Give Him Joyful Praise
Heartfelt Prayers
And 
Willing Obedience 
As We Watch, Wait And Work Wisely 
For Him Who Blesses His Faithful Children Forever 
Whether The Sun Is Shining 
Or We Are Walking Under The Shadow Of Life's Storms! 

Stand Up For Jesus 
And 
Live Life With Real Joy Today ... And Forever! 
Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + OASIS IN LIFE FOR LIFE: Of Good ... And For Blessings!

Our Oasis 
Is 
Notable For Always Having Fresh, Clean, Sweet Water

And

Sure And Ample Shade

To Comfort The Soul Of The Traveller

To Give His Strength To Prevail ... To Plod On

On The Road To Victory Over Sin, Self, Satan, Hell

Death And The Cold Grave

Giving The Shout Of Triumph

Thanking God Almighty

In The Person Of Jesus Christ The Righteous

Who, Alone

Has The Power To Succour All Of Us!

The Good Book That Tells Of Christ Jesus

The Word Of Truth

The Word Of God

The Pardoner Holy Just And True

Is

Our Oasis In Life's Desert Of Sin

Calling Us To Soul Salvation

Giving Us Ample Reason

To Our Purchased Victory To March On!
Let Us Be Faithful!
Let Us Not To The Adversary Give In! 

Now Hear The Word Of The Lord
To Me, To You:

Brethren,

We Will Never Arrive At The Heavenly Home
Under Our Own Steam
And
Like It Or Not ... To Get There Safely
We, All, Must Make Some Hard Acknowledgements: 

• I'm A Sinner 
• I Must Ignore Temporal Glory
• I Must Turn Away From The Scenes Of Life That Humbled Me To Shame
• I Must Be Of A Meek And Gentle Spirit
• I Must Walk In The Footsteps Of My King In The Way That He, Personally, Has Marked For My Feet

The Lord Can Teach A Meek Soul 
And
He Can Save The Acknowledged Sinner
But

The Lord Can Do Nothing For The Person Whose Lust For 
Temporal Aka Earthly Glory 

Is 

More Than His Love For His Lord 

And 

His Desire To Be Eternally Saved

Nor For The Person Who Believes That His Sin ... His Shame

Is 

Bigger Than The Lord's Capacity To Forgive 

And

To Cleanse! 

Beloved, 

Everything That We Do Involves Thought ... Decision-Making

And

We Must Decide To Believe That The Word Of God Is True

And

That As Repentant Sinners Aka Sinners Saved

The Lord God Of Grace For Us Now

And

Glory For Us To Come

Will Guard, Guide, Lead, Feed, Chide Aka Correct

Abide With Us

Deliver Us From Sin And Death

And 

Physically Reclaim Us On The Great Day! 

The Word Of God
Is 
The Transcript Of God's Character!
The Word Of God Is Living
And By It 
We Know That We Have Eternal Life!

Read The Living, Holy, Word

And

Remind Yourself ... Daily

That You Have A Future

And

An Expected End -

The Gift Of The Eternal God!

The Word Of God, Again, Is Our Oasis!
This Oasis Means Life To Us Who Are In The Desert ... Of Sin!
Please Consider ... Carefully ... This Fact:

An Oasis ... A Known Blessing To Travellers
Is 
Profitable To The Man Who Finds It
And
Greedily, Gratefully, Avails Himself Of Its Benefits!

The Man Who Blithely Walks Past
The Only Oasis In The Desert
While Declaring That Such A Way-Station
Is 
For Weaklings And Cowards
Will Slowly Die A Painful Death
When His Bravado And His Earthly Supplies Are Depleted
And
There Is No Other Known Stop For Body And Soul Refreshing!

Make The Decision ...

We Thoughtfully Don't Leave Home Without "Our" Cell Phone! 

How About Let Us Thoughtfully Decide 
Not To Leave Home Without "Our" Lord

- Who Is Infinitely More Profitable - 

In Our Hearts!?! 
The Living Word Works Full-Time!

Remember ...

All Good And Perfect Gifts ... Blessings
Come From "Our" Lord Christ
In Whom Is "Our" Life!
Accept The Blessed Provisions From The Hand Of Our Lord
And
Live!

Pray ... And Persist In Prayer!

Brethren,

See To It That You Heed The Word Of The Lord!
Remember That He Said To One ... And To All:
Pray ... Without Ceasing
And
Pray ... And Don't Faint
Aka Give Up, Be Dismayed
Be Anxious About Everything!

Prayer, Beloved
Unlocks Heaven's Storehouses
To Those Who Believe In The Living Word!
Pray ... And Persist!

Understand One Thing, Though:

We Are Not Telling The Lord
Anything That He Does Not Already Know!
We Are Allowing Our Prayers Of Faith
To Carry Us Up Towards Our God
Whom We Know Can Help Us
And 
Whom We Truly Believe Will Help Us!

So, Little Children, With That In Mind

Whatever Your Sorrow
Whatever Your Need
Cry Boldly ... Even Bitterly
But 
Always Humbly 
And
With Faith 
Unto Almighty God ... In The Name Of Jesus
For Your Relief And Release! 

If You Have Any Doubt Within You
Please Tell The Lord About It
And
Ask Him To Help You Get Rid Of It!

The Lord Does Not Have Anything

To Give To Anybody

Who Does Not Believe In Him 

And His Ability To Provide! 

Think About It ...

Our Prayers Are Conversations: 
We Speak And The Lord Listens 
And
The Lord Speaks ... And We Listen! 
Pray ... And Listen ... And Pray Again!

Pray ... Until Something Happens!

A Word Of Caution ...

Please Do Not Let Your Prayers
Be Always About I-Want, I-Need, Gimme, Gotta Have It!
Prayers Of Thanksgiving Are Always Welcomed 
And 
Always Accepted!

Let Us Be Mannerly
And
Confident
When We Approach The Throne Of Grace 
Remembering To Whom We Speak
On Whom We Rely
In  Whom We Trust
Through Whom We Shall Ascend The Heights Of Glory
And 
With Whom We Shall Spend Eternity 
In The Sweet By And By! 

Beloved, 

We Are Blessed Beyond Measure 
Because
We Have A Carte Blanche ... A Blank Check
Which We May Courageously Fill In 
With The Ink Of Faith: 
It's Already Signed By The Heart Of Infinite Love 
And
Will Be Honored Only As It Blesses You
And
Glorifies His Great Name! 

Pray Passionately In The Moment Of Your Need 
And, Again
I Say Unto Us All: Pray Without Ceasing! 

Praying Is Power
Because
Prayer Is Powerful
Because
Our Ability To Pray To The Majesty Of Heaven
Is 
A Gift To His Children 
From The Holy Hand Of The Eternal God
Who Is All-Powerful ... All-Knowing
All-Seeing ... Ever-Present!

Please Do Not Give Up On The Border Of Receipt 
Because 
You Stepped In A Coil Of Doubt! 

Pray On Anyhow 
And 
Press On To Receive Your Blessing: 
You Shall Not Be Made Ashamed! 

Hold On To Your Hope In Jesus Christ 
And 
You Will Be Blessed:
It Is The Promise Of Almighty God!

Never Forget That

"No!"

Is Also The Answer To Prayer!

Our Father Knows Best!
