VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Christian Code-Switchers!?!

Who Would Have Thought That 

There Would Be Known Practicing Christians 

Who Indulge In Code-Switching!?! 

Huh!?! 

They Are Christians With Their Christian Friends And Associates 

And 

Rabid Sinners With Their Willfully Sinning Friends, You Know, To Fit In! 

Huh!?! 

Yup! 

You Heard It Right! 

Beloved, 

As Children Of The Heavenly Father

Why, Why, Why Would We Feel The Need To Be Switch-Hitters!?! 

Do We Not Remember The Statement Of Truth Which Says That 

A Friend Of The World Is The Enemy Of Almighty God!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Do You Know, Accept, Understand, And Act 

According To Your Calling In Christ Jesus!?! 

If You Are, Don't You Believe That Constancy And Consistency

Faithfulness

And 

Enduring All Things For Our Lord Christ 

Should See You Standing Firm And Deep In The Savior's Love 

No Matter In Whose Company You Should Find Yourself!?! 

Brethren, 

Please Know That There Is No Fence Riding

No Fence Riders

No A Lil' Bit O' This

And 

A Scrumptious Helping O' That 

In The Kingdom Of The Forever Blessed! 

With Jesus Christ The King

You're Either With Him Or Against Him! 

How Are You Standing In And With The Forever Blessed One!?! 

Are You Permitting Him To Hold Your Hand 

To Lead You Gently Safely Home!?! 

The Lord Jesus Is The Light That Leads To Everlasting Life! 

He's Everything To And For Us: 

Think On And Pray About It! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Real Peace Is Free!

To What Are You Daily Inclined!?! 

We All Have Choices To Make And A Chance

An Opportunity To Make The Right Choice

The Choice Which Will Not Crucify Our Blessed Jesus Afresh! 

What Would You Do 

If You Had To Choose Between Momentary Pleasure 

And 

Perpetual Aka Everlasting Peace!?! 

Actually, There Is No "If" 

Because 

This Is The Decision That We, Each

Must Make Now, Today

As Members Of The Laodicean Church Age! 

Laodicea Means The Judging Of The People 

So We Are In The Judgment Hour 

Which Means All Decisions Are Final! 

Beloved, 

Is Denying That You Are Wretched, Miserable, Poor, Blind, And Naked 

Worth More To You 

- To Get A Foul, Fleeting, Fleeing Sensation - 

Than Making And Taking Hold Of The Covenant Of Peace 

With Our Creator God, Savior, Judge, And Redeemer 

Who Gives Us Peace Beyond Human Understanding!?! 

I Sincerely Pray For Us All The Good Pleasure Of 

Having Jesus Christ's Perfect Peace Today And Forever! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Light ... And Salvation!

 

Is The Lord Jesus Light That Leads To Salvation 

Or Salvation That Is Light!?! 

Is It Because He Is Light And Salvation That 

We Can Emphatically Say That Jesus Christ The Lord

The Light Of The World

The Creator-God

Our Redeemer-Friend, Our Refuge

The Shepherd Of Our Rest

Him Through Whom We Live And Breathe And Have Our Being

And 

The Joy Of Living

Is 

The Strength Of Our Life!?! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord Jesus Christ Is Not A Man That He Should Lie 

Because 

He Is The Word Of God

The Truth

God Made Flesh Who Dwelt Among Us

And 

Is Even Now With Us Through The Presence Of The Comforter

The Holy Spirit Of Truth

The Holy Spirit Of God! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have No Need To Fear What Fallen Man 

Or The Damned Devil Can Do 

Or Promises To Do To Us Or With Us! 

Jesus Christ The King Has The Answer 

And 

Is The Answer To All Aka Every Last Thing That Concerns Us 

As We Inhabit This Earthly Tabernacle 

Which Is Even Now Being Dissolved! 

Please Hold To The Blessed Lord's Unchanging

Always Sufficient 

Ever Able Everlasting Arms 

Which Cannot Falter While Executing A Mission For Our Salvation

- Nor At All -

Nor Fail At Finishing That Which He Has Started In Our Lives! 

The Great Day Is Coming: 

Please Keep The Holy Faith 

And

Keep Your Eyes On Our Lord Jesus! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + The Prize Fight!

 

Everybody And Anybody That Thought Themselves 

Somebody Now ... Or Somebody Rising

Was There! 

Stand Against Wrong Was Up Against 

Always Do Right! 

Semantics Was The Big MC! 

The Plebes And The Non-Entities Were Far Back

Waiting, Watching, Wondering What The Big Deal Was About! 

The Professed And Practicing Christians Were Praying 

Because 

They Knew That Standing Against Wrong And Always Do Right 

Are Husband And Wife 

In The Sight Of The Holy God 

And 

That Means That They Are One Flesh ... Inseparable! 

The Nominal Christians Were Salivating

Desiring A Knock-Out Blow 

But 

Would Settle For A No-Decision Decision 

After A Bruising Dust-Up Between SAW And ADR! 

The Fight Hadn't Even Started 

But 

You Could Already Smell Blood In The Air! 

Lord, 

Be Merciful To Us Sinners Known Saved

Only By Your Unfailing Grace! 

Beloved, 

Think On The Lord Jesus

Follow Where He Walked Doing As He Did

And 

Be Gloriously Blessed! 

Now To The Business At Hand! 

It Is Only When Itching Ears Engage 

And/Or Purchase The Services Of Hireling Aka Under-Shepherds 

Who Commit To Telling The People What They Want To Hear

How And When They Want To Hear It

That We See Stand Against Wrong And Always Do Right 

Become Oppositional

Adversaries Of Truth

Enemies Of Good And Almighty God! 

Dear Ones, 

If You Are A Child Of The Great King

Stand Against Wrong And Always Do Right

- In Your Life In Christ -

Will Hold Hands In The Ring Built By The Devil 

And 

Walk Companionably, Unfazed

In The Savior's Light That Leads To His Eternal Life! 

Please Prayerfully Think On This Matter 

And

Firmly Close This Case With A 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH + THE TRUTH: The First, Last, And Only Dollar Bill!

Brethren, 

Let Us Not Deceive Ourselves, Nor Others

And 

Let No One Deceive Us: 

The Lord Jesus Gave Us Himself Aka The Truth! 

Since Mankind Needs Money To Survive

Jesus Christ The Lord 

Is 

Our First, Last, And Only Dollar Bill

- Our Only Hope -

Which Will Save, Satisfy, And Sanctify Us

And 

Preserve, Provide For, And Protect Us 

As Long As We Don't Lose Sight Of Or Lose Touch With It

And

Dare To Keep It Ever In Our Head, Heart, And Hand

No Matter How Hungry And Thirsty We Are 

For This, That, And The Other

Or How Boisterously, Angrily, Aggressively

And 

Contemptuously 

We Are Ragged Upon And Railed At To Give It Up

Give It Away

Or Cast It Away From Us 

So That We May Align With Or Belong To 

The "Access-Everything Crowd!" 

Neither Jump Up And Wave

Lie Down And Sleep

Bacchanal

Nor Narcissus 

Will Emerge As Victors

In The Battle For Eternal Life!

 

Only Those Who Have Jesus Christ 

Aka The One Dollar Bill Which Also Provides Hope

Can Fight And Win Battles 

And

Overcome Sin And Self

And

Endure To The End

And

Possess The Crown Of Life 

And

Live In The Heavenly Land! 

Dear Ones, 

There Will Always Be Someone 

Who Will Offer You Something Better, Brighter, Bolder

And 

Allegedly More Beautiful! 

Ignore Them! 

They Will Offer You Something More!

More Elaborate, Elevating, Enticing, And Epicurious! 

Ignore Them! 

They Will Offer You 

Delicious

Exciting

Actualizing

Tasty

Handy 

Instead, Choose What Is 

Liberty

Innocency

Faithfulness

Ennobling 

Choose Life ... In Christ! 

The One Dollar Bill ... The Truth

Is 

Priceless! 

As Long As You Have It

You Will Never Have To Spend A Red Cent On Lies! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Refuse To Be Refuse!

 

Jesus Christ, The One Holy And Therefore Righteous

The God Wise And Therefore Just

The Forever Friend Who Is Therefore Faithful

Our Only Savior And Thus The Truth

Our Creator-God And Only Redeemer

Calls Us To His Side Via Confession And Repentance Of Sin! 

The Call Of Jesus Christ Gives Us Hope

And 

Our Walk With Jesus To The Father's House Of Joy And Peace 

In The Glorious Kingdom 

Is 

A Transformative One 

Because 

It Is Sanctifying ... Setting Us Apart

Changing Us Throughout Our Lives

For His Holy Use! 

Beloved, 

Since We Are Warned To Test The Spirits

And 

Also Cautioned About The Other Jesus 

And 

That Other Gospel

The Question Must Be Boldly Asked And Honestly Answered: 

"Is The Life That You Are Leading 

With The One You Call Savior, Lord, And God

Transforming You From A Sinner Bound For Hell 

Into A Saint Bound For Almighty God's Glory 

... Or ... 

Are You Being Affirmed

- Made Comfortable - 

In Your Cherished And Very Satisfying-To-The-Sense Sin

And 

Are Being Bamboozled Into Being A Self-Satisfied Fat Frog In Cold Water 

Scented With All Your Chosen Aromatics Of Forbidden Pleasure

In An Always Deep Pasta Pot Over A Gentle Flame!?!" 

Dear Ones, 

Never Follow The Prevailing Winds Of Change 

Nor The Always-Wrong Multitude! 

Do Not Move The Old Landmarks 

To Make Your Desired Building Fit Your Coveted Landscape! 

Stand In And For 

The Uncomfortable But Needful, Necessary Transformative Grace Of God 

And 

Refuse To Be Made Refuse 

By The Trendy Affirmative Action Of The Accuser Of The Brethren

The Adversary Of Souls 

Who Has No Good Place To Call Home 

And

Has Your Eternal Destruction 

As His Soon-To-Be-Obliterated-Life Goal! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ... 

Low Riders Don't Like High Roads! 

Affirming Sin Aids In Self-Destruction! 

Be Transformed By The Renewing Of Your Mind! 

Walk With The Lord Jesus In The Light Of Life ... In Truth! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Sign Up For The Class!

If Doing Right Causes You To Come Last

Come Last! 

If Doing Right Causes To Look Bad

Sign Up For The Class! 

If Doing Right Causes You To Go Hungry

Call It A Scheduled Fast

And 

No Matter What Happens When You Choose To Do Right

Do All To Ensure That You Are Present And Accounted Righteous 

When You Shall Hear The Trumpet's Loud Blast! 

Dear Ones, 

Walking, Standing, By Yourself 

In The Blessed And Holy Name Of Our Lord And King, Jesus

Is 

The Blissful State To Be In When The Call Is Made 

To Join The Raucous Multitude 

Who Listen To The Siren Voices Of Demons 

Who Encourage Humans To Indulge In Mass Wrong-Doing! 

Beloved, 

The People Of The Living God 

Will Always Be A Small Group, A Remnant

So Do Not Fear The Mindless, Godless

Given-Over-To-Evil Hoard Of The Damned! 

Please Stick With Our Lord Jesus

He With Whom You Now Stand 

And

That Will See You Living Safe, Free, Loved, Sheltered

And 

Forever Blessed 

In Beautiful Beulah Land! 

Always Choose To Do And Fight For The Right! 

You, Alone, With Christ Jesus

Will Always Be The Majority! 

Nothing Else Matters! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + GOBs ... From Almighty God!

I Don't Know About You

But I Have Come To Realize That Every Day That I Live And Breathe 

Is 

A Day From The Eternal God 

Which Is Filled With GOBs Aka Gifts, Opportunities, And Blessings! 

Why Do I Say This!?! 

Because It Is A Fact Out Of The Preserved Holy Writ 

And

A Real Matter Of Honest Christian Perspective! 

Dear Ones, 

This Is The Day That The Lord Has Made 

So Let Us Rejoice 

And

Be Glad In It 

No Matter What Comes Your Way: 

We Are Not Alone! 

I'm Certain That We All Constantly Hear Our Brethren

- In And Outside Of The Holy Faith - 

Boldly Say: 

"My Alarm Clock Woke Me! 

The Children Woke Me Up!" 

I Invite You To Carry A Screaming Alarm-Clock 

And

A Rambunctious Gaggle Of Sugared-Up Children 

Into That Quiet Place 

And 

Let Them Do The Dog 

And 

See If Anybody Gets Up! 

Beloved, 

Secular And Specious Speech 

In The Mouth Of A Saint Of God And Christ 

Must Surely Be A Sin Against Sense And Sanity! 

Please Be Wise For Your Own Self! 

Isn't Our High Priest Jesus Christ The Lord

The King

The Creator-God

And 

Isn't it By His Name 

And 

Through His Power That 

We Make Our Profession!?! 

Aren't All Good And Perfect Gifts, Opportunities, And Blessings 

From Our Lord ... The King Of Glory!?! 

Isn't Our Gift Of Life From The Creator-God!?! 

Shouldn't We Be Glad For Our Opportunity To Be Saved

To Live A Sinless Life Through Christ

And 

To Be Redeemed When The Trumpet Of The Lord Shall Sound!?! 

Gratitude Is A Grace

So Let Us Give Thanks And Praise To Our God Most High! 

Life In And With The Lord Of Life 

Is 

Ever Always Infinitely Blessed And Gloriously Beautiful! 

Peace!

Confess Your Sins To Who!?!

 

James 5:16 Clearly, Plainly, Unambiguously Says To Us Readers

- Competent Or Otherwise - 

To Confess Our Faults One To Another 

But

Lo And Behold

We Are Swallowing Wicked Men's Commands

- As Dictated By Satan - 

To Confess Our Sins One To Another! 

Lord, Have Mercy! 

Beloved, 

Sin Is The Transgression Of Almighty God's Laws 

So, Pray Tell

Why Would You Be Confessing Your Sins To A Man, A Woman

A Created Being!?! 

Did They Die For You!?! 

Are They Faithful And Just To Forgive You Of Your Sin 

And 

Able To Cleanse You From All Unrighteousness!?! 

Dear Ones, 

It Is Time To Get Off Gullible-Man Bus 

And 

Turn To The Wisdom Of The Only Wise God 

And 

Do Exactly What He Commands! 

Go To The Father In The Name Of The Son Who, Alone, Saves! 

Brethren, 

Those Who Change The Word Of The Lord 

Are Agents Of The Devil Who Desire To Know Your Secrets 

So That They May Hold Them Over Your Head 

And 

Bend You To Their Will ... And

For Their Profit! 

The Lord Jesus Christ Calls Us To Confess Our Sin 

For Our Own Personal Purification, Peace, And Profit ... Prosperity! 

We Are To Have Faith In Jesus 

And 

Offer Our Repentance To The Father! 

When You Do The Man-Command And Confess Sin To A Man

To Whom Are You Offering Your Repentance!?! 

Are You Even Repentant!?! 

A Glove Without A Hand In It 

Is Just Fabric With A Fancy Name! 

Confessing Sin To A Sinner 

Is 

Selling Out The Savior 

And 

Elevating A Living Dead Man 

Whose Input Can't Even Rent You A Look-See Into Glory! 

Don't Waste Your Time! 

Stick With The Lord Of Life Who Gives Salvation 

Which Saves In The Day Of Strife! 

Men Are Profiteers! 

Jesus Christ Is Profitable! 

The Holy Hand Of Help Holding Healing Marks The Difference! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Everything Grows!

 

Good Or Evil, Everything In This Life Grows! 

Just Like Wheat, Weeds Grow! 

Just Like Faith, Doubt Grows! 

Just Like Love, Hate Grows! 

Beloved, 

Be Wise For Your Own Self 

And

Understand And Accept That 

For Every Good And Perfect Gift That 

The Lord God Almighty Provides To Us For Our Upliftment

Satan The Damned Has A Counterfeit "Good" To "Gift" To Us 

To Manufacture Our Destruction! 

Dear Ones, 

Consider That The Farmer Does Not Have To Either Tend Or Water 

The Weeds That Appear Amongst His Wheat! 

Left Alone, Those Weeds Will Wreak Havok 

And 

Soon Overwhelm The Good Wheat! 

Wickedness, Like The Weeds

Is 

A Wanderer 

Uncaring For Whom, When, Where, And Why It Entangle, Ensnares! 

Goodness, Like The Cherished Wheat Crop

Must Be Meticulously Cared For, Cherished, And Protected! 

Think, Beloved! 

Would You Prefer A Life Of License To Indulge The Liar 

Who Is The Loss Leader, The Judas Goat

Or 

Would You Prefer The Love And Care Of The Lord Of Life 

Who Leads His Dear Children With The Sacrificial Love 

Which Leads Them To Grow In Grace 

And

In The Beauty Of Holiness 

Which Opens The Pearl Gates Of The Eternal City 

Where Cherished Faith Becomes Everlasting Sight!?! 

Beloved, 

Only The Lord's Stock Is An Infinity! 

Get It Now! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Good Is Good As Long As It Stays Good!

It's Absolutely Mind-Bogglingly Amazing! 

You, Me, We Have A Reputation For Let's Say

Being Punctual To Work

On Time To Complete Assignments

And 

Ever On Task Aka No Tomfoolery Indulged! 

With This Solidly Intact Reputation

You, Me, We Decide That We Are Going To Do Some "Things" 

And 

Get Away With Them 

Because

Well, The Reputation Speaks For Itself 

And 

Wrong-Doing Ain't Your Way

Until You Get Caught And Fuzzed Out Like A Cheap Carpet! 

Now Picture, If You Will

The Committed To Christ, Psalm-Singing, Tithe-Returning

Righteous Person 

Whose Once Stellar Reputation Gives Way To A Stink-Ball Of 

Almighty God Knows Me 

Because 

I'm His Person No Matter What I Do Self-Righteousness 

Which, Most Definitely, Is Not The Righteousness Of Our Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Does Not Stutter

Does Not Take Bribes

And 

Does Not Play Favorites! 

Good Is Good As Long As It Stays Good! 

Good Turned Bad 

And 

Relying On Yesterday's Good To Earn Tomorrow's Paycheck 

Is Not Going To Fly You To Glory! 

Remember The Old Adage ...

"Good, Better, Best

Never Let It Rest

Till The Good Is Better

And The Better Best!" 

Please Stay On The Path That Is Lit By The Living, Holy, Word Of Truth 

And 

Do Not Permit The Adversary Of Souls To Convince You That 

Receiving His Fool's Gold "Participation Trophy" 

Is 

As Good As Receiving The Crown Of Life From The Lord Of Life

The King Of Earth And Glory! 

Stay On The Son's Side Of Life 

And 

Be Enduringly Good To The End ... By Grace Through Unfailing Faith! 

Peace! 

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: There Is Infinite Wisdom In Salvation!

There Is No Wisdom Outside Of The Savior 

And 

There Is No Salvation In Sin! 

There Is No Hope Outside Of The Helper 

And 

There Is No Blessing Falling Upon Team Goat! 

How Often Are Tears Falling When We Decide That 

We Know More Than The Lord Our God

When We Decide That Worldly Wisdom Is Heavenly 

And 

Heavenly Wisdom Is Not Worthy Of Assent's Nod!?! 

Beloved, 

It Is Time To Awaken From Sleep! 

It Is Time To Strengthen The Weak Knees! 

It Is Time To Hold High The "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

And 

All Things Despoiling To Boldly Deny! 

Our Blessed Jesus Saves 

Even As Accursed Satan Does Rage 

So Step Away From Sin And Sinning 

And 

Do Not With The Eternally-Damned One Engage! 

Remember Lot's Wife: 

Don't Despise Your Blessing! 

Remember Eve, The Mother Of All Living! 

Talking Serpents Are A Lie 

And 

They Can't But Lie! 

Remember Achan! 

There Is Never A Goodly Babylonish Garment

And 

Stolen Riches, Though Hidden, No Man Will Keep! 

Jesus Christ Saves! 

Please Have This Wisdom Running In Your Heart 

And 

On Permanent Repeat! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + Gain The Whole World!?!

If You Knew Without A Doubt That Pursuing And Achieving Worldly Success 

Would Cause You To Forget Almighty God And Goodness

Would You Go After Worldly Success!?! 

If You Knew That Depending On The Lord Christ For Every Need Of 

This Short And Eventful Life 

Would Surely See You Saved At The Last Trumpet's Call

Would You Choose To Live On The Love Of The Glorious God 

Or Would You Opt For The Liberty Of License 

And 

Do Whatever You Want To 

Because 

You Have Free-Will  ... And Freedom To Choose!?! 

Choices And Chances

Graces And Paces!

Beloved, 

How Will You Stand In The Presence Of The Judge Of All Flesh

- The King Of Every Human -

In The Appointed Hour!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Look To Jesus Christ And Live 

Is 

The Command Of Almighty God To Fallen, Finite Man!

Despising Everlasting Gifts To Enjoy Pea-Soup That 

Disappears At The Potty Bar 

Is 

Not A Decision To Be Taken Lightly ... Or At All! 

The Question Needs To Be Honestly Answered: 

"What Does It Profit A Man

To Gain The Whole World

And

Lose His Own Soul!?!" 

Have You Got The Answer!?! 

Please, Right Now, Today, Talk To The Lord Jesus

The Word Who Gives The Words Of Life: 

You Have Eternal Life To Gain! 

Peace!
