VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Love Is Not Idolatrous Sensationalistic Emotionalism!

KJV John 14:21
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

He Had His Foot On The Brake
And 
I Had My Foot On The Gas
And 
It Didn't Take Rocket Science For Me To Realize That 
I Was Going Nowhere Real Fast! 

Very Soon I Was Glad 
For It Became Evident That Without His Asked-For Intervention
I Would Have Been Wearing, At The Very Least
A Personalized Body-Cast! 

Thank You, Lord Jesus, For The Save, For The Love! 

Time Changed! 
I Had Had My Foot On The Brake 
But 
He Escorted My Foot To The Gas 
And 
I Soon Came To Realize That 
I Was The One Who Had Asked, Again
For His Intervention, Again
And 
Had Harkened Aka Listened To And Done What He Had Asked 
Which Was "Be Very Courageous: Press On To Victory!" 

Brethren, Beloved, 

How Often Have We Acted Craven Aka Cowardly 
When The Plain Voice Of The Eternal God Said: 
"Be Brave! I AM With You!?!" 

How Often Have We Lion-Heartedly Roared 
And 
Enthusiastically Run Into Inevitable Disaster 
When The Good Lord Had Said: "Stand Still!?!" 

Are You Seeing The Pattern!?! 

The Lord Said: "Stop!" AND We Went! 

The Lord Said: "Go!" AND We Planted Our Feet In Quikrete Mortar Mix 
And 
Became Statues Of Willful Disobedience! 

Dear Ones, 

Be Very, Very, Careful! 

The Lord Jesus Made It Plain When He Said That 
Our Obedience Is The Mark Of Our Love For Him! 

Plainly Put, 
Love Is Demonstrated! 
It Is Not Idolatrous Sensationalistic Emotionalism! 

Beloved, 

Look Around! 

We Don't Naturally STOP At GO Signs 
And 
We Don't Naturally GO At STOP Signs: 
Consequences Apply! 

Let's Think On These Things 
And 
Pray For The ... Our ... Good Lord To Help Us 
To Do As He Commands 
No Matter The Earthly Cost 
Because 
Heaven With Our Blessed Lord Jesus Awaits ... For Love Demonstrated! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Which Words!?!

KJV Psalms 39:1
1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

Words Have Consequences 
For The Rich And For The Poor
For The Knocker At The Front Gate 
And 
The Opener Of The Inside Door!

People, Don't Blink! 
Think! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Achan's Confession Of His Delight In The Babylonish Garment 
And 
For Silver And Gold 
Led To His Excommunication 
And 
Stoning To Death And Burning On The Desert Floor! 

General Moses' Misspoken Words By Anger
Asking The People If He And Aaron Were To Give Them Water 
Instead Of Glorifying The Faithful Holy God
Led To Them Being Excluded From Entering The Promised Land! 

Think Also Of Nabal 
Who Rejected David's Request For Sustenance By Asking 
Who Is David
The Very One Whose Guardianship Of His Flocks 
Guaranteed Nabal's Prosperity
Shows Us The Subsequent Deadly Cost Of 
Misplaced Aggression
Arrogance
And 
Knowing Base Ingratitude! 

Dear Ones, 

I Bid Us All To Speak Quietly 
And 
Tread Softly In The Presence Of The Lord! 

In Sewing, We Are Instructed To Measure Twice 
Before Cutting The Fabric Once! 

The Lord Tells Us That We Who Love The Tongue 
Shall Eat The Fruit Thereof 
So Be Very Careful What You Say 
Because 
Both Wise And Unwise Words Are A Heavy Weight! 

Judas Iscariot Asked Of The Jewish Leaders: 
"How Much Will You Give Me!?!" 
To Betray Our Lord Jesus! 

Jesus Christ Said To His Father: 
"Not My Will, But Thy Will Be Done!" 

Will Your Words To Our Blessed Jesus Be: 
"Lord, I Willingly Follow Thee No Matter The Cost!" 
Even Though You Understand That 
The World Will Savage You!?! 

Weigh What To Speak On The Way To Speak! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: TRUTH Can Handle Questioning!

KJV Job 13:3
3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.

The Truth Has Nothing To Fear From Being Questioned! 
True Or False!?! 

Jesus Christ, Our Only King, Said: 
"I Am The Truth!" 
He Also Said: 
"Come Let Us Reason Together!" 
And He Also Said: 
"Ask!" 

Ergo Aka Therefore
The Truth Aka Jesus Christ Our Lord 
Has Nothing To Fear 
From Being Questioned By Us Creatures Of Fallible Flesh
Of "Daintified" Dust! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord Jesus Is All-Knowing 
So It Is Impossible For Us To Stump Our Creator 
With One Of Our "Imponderables!" 

Think About It: 
Can You Come Up With Such An Off-The-Wall Question For Our Maker/Master
Who Is Also All-Seeing And Ever-Present
That He Will Have To Snap His Fingers And Say To You ... In Resignation: 
"Oh, My Stars! 
You Really Got Me With That Question!" 

Wouldn't That Scenario Cause You To Become God
And 
Able To Create Your Own Reality
Problems Absent
Answers Evident!?! 

Dear Ones, 

We Are So Full Of Stuff And Nonsense That 
We Are Behaving Like Rank Idolaters! 

We Make God 
And 
We MAKE God Go! 

I Cry: 
"Remanufactured Hay!" 

Brethren, 

Be Wise For Your Own Self! 
Our Lord Is Real! 
His Wisdom Is Everlasting 
And 
He, His Truth, Endureth To All Generations! 

Please Dare And Try Almighty God ... By Faith! 

Remember, He Knows Your Question 
And Your Need
And Your Desire
And Your Hope
And Your Hurt
And Your Health
And Your Sorrow
And Your Joy
And Whether You Truly Believe That He Is Real 
And That He Loves You Personally And Intimately
And Intentionally
And Eternally! 

Please Get A Grip On Saving Grace
Tighten Your Heretofore Loose Lip
And 
Let Your Question ... By Unfailing Faith ... For Our Sovereign Lord, Rip! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Tired ... Tried!?!

KJV Psalms 66:18
18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:

Will You Wear On Your Head What Your Feet Will Walk Upon!?! 
I Was Tired! 
I Am Getting Tired! 
I Am Tired! 
I Tried! 
I Will Be Tried! 
I Am Being Tried! 

Each Of These Statements Mean Something Different 
And
All Of Them Are True 
For All Of Us ... Now ... Today! 

Beloved, 

Consider This: 
You Are Not Letting Go Of That Person, Place, Or Thing 
Because 
It, That, She, He Known Finite 
And
Slowly Killing You Figuratively And Literally 
"Is All That I Have!" 
But
You Have No Problem At All With Casting Into The Flames Of 
"My Foolish Heart's Damnable Desire!" 
The Infinite Being You Truly Need 
Who Moment By Moment Is And Gives You Your Life
Help, Hope, Healing 
And
The Key To His Heavenly Home! 

Lord Jesus, Make This Make Sense! 

Dear Ones, 

We Are A Stubborn And Gainsaying People 
Who Would Criticize To His Face 
The Very Jesus Who Saves Us 
If We Could See Him Face To Face Today! 

Stubbornness Is As Iniquity And Idolatry
Our Use Of Which Will Have Satan Counting Coup 
And 
Our Lord The Judge Subtracting Saints! 

Please Don't Do A Judas And Sell Heaven's Perfect Treasure 
To Get Earth's You'll Never Spent It Silver! 

Tired!?! 
Add Jesus The Savior! 

Tried!?! 
Add Christ The King! 

With Jesus In Your Heart
All That He Ordains For You To Have And Hold 
Will Be Added Unto You! 

We Are Dust: 
Dust Mines Gold 
And 
Gold Elevates Dust! 

Pray Without Ceasing 
And 
Mine The Scriptures! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Our Free-Will Can't Be Breached!

 




We Should Know By Now That 
We Sin By Thought, Word, And Deed! 
Hear The Excuses! 

We Sin Because The Devil Made Us Do It: 
He Didn't! 

We Sin Because The Lord Didn't Stop Us: 
He Does Not Breach Our Free-Will! 

We Sin Because We Felt Like It
Or We Really, Really Wanted Our Fleshly Desire Made Whole 
Or We Couldn't Find A Good Reason Not To Sin: 
We Didn't Look In The Right Place! 

Beloved, 

Have You For One Itty-Bitty Moment Considered That 
Our God, The Eternal, Sees And Records Everything That 
We Think, Say, And Do
And That It Is In Our Best Interests 
To Recognize, Accept, And Honorably
Wisely, Righteously, Act Upon The Knowledge That 
We May Escape Detection By The Earthly Judge But That 
We Will Not Under Any Circumstance 
Escape The All-Knowing, Ever-Present, All-Seeing, Eternal God
He From Whom No One Can Hide!?! 

Dear One, 

I-Feel, I-Must, I-Can, And I-Will Are Interesting Characters 
Who Can Be Used For Good Or Ill In Our Lives! 

When We Choose To Feed Them On The Good News
I-Feel Will Be Saying 
"I Feel The Presence Of The Lord!" 

I-Must Will Be Saying 
"I Must Tell Jesus All Of My Troubles!" 

I-Can Will Not Act Like Achan 
But, Instead, Will Be Saying 
"I Can Do All Right Things 
Through Christ Who Strengthens Me!" 

And

I-Will Will Be Praying Without Ceasing 
And 
Giving Thanks To The Lord For All Things ... Even The Fiery Trials ... 
Because 
We Know That We Are Not Alone! 

Let Jesus Christ Be Praised! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Your Adversary, The Devil, Satan The Damned
Wants You Dead And Damned: 
Roundly, Firmly, Aggressively Reject His Overtures 
By The Word That Works 
Aka "Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Our Advocate The Creator
Our Savior The Redeemer
Our Lord Blessed Forever
Wants Us To Live Forever 
So Please Dare And Choose Life In Christ 
And 
You Will Never, Ever, Have The Opportunity 
To Visit The Land Called Regret! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Open Our Eyes, Lord!

 






The Lord Jesus Christ Is Trying To Help Us 
To Abundantly Live In Him Now
And 
Then Eternally With Him! 

We Must Choose To Cooperate With Him 
Through The Holy Spirit 
Who Leads Us Into All Truth! 

Brethren, 

All That He Is Asking Of Us 
Is 
That We Accept The Draught From Heaven's Bottle Of 
Easily Digestible Loving Kindness, Blessing, And Grace! 

Truth Being Always Told
We Are Choosing, Instead, To Self-Cure
Self-Comfort And Self-Control 
By Ill-Advisedly Imbibing From The Rancid Cask Of 
Do-Me Willful Human Blindness 
Which Carries No Spiritual Nourishment 
But 
Is Filled To Overflowing With The Empty Calories Of Lawlessness ... Of Sin
Which Makes Us Fat And Easy To Overcome 
By Our Adversary, The Devil, Satan The Damned! 

Beloved, 

There Will Be No Fools
Aka No One Who Says That There Is No God
In The Lord's Living Kingdom Of Light! 

Since We Actively Say To All That We Believe That 
The Lord Can Do A Great Thing For Us Here And Now
Should We Not, Here And Now, Show Our Faith And Trust 
By Willingly Doing What The Lord Is Asking Us To Do 
To Truly Help Ourselves!?! 

Dear Ones, 

The One-Mile Walk To Surpassing Glory 
Starts With Our First Step Toward Jesus Christ, Our Only Savior! 

Salvation Is Free 
But
All Potential Recipients 
Must Willingly Accept The Package 
And
Eagerly Open It 
And
Wisely Use The Gift: 
This Is Self-Service Only! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Please Remember 
And
Never Forget That Man-Wrought Salvation 
Is 
The Devil's Only Delight 
Because 
It Leads To Man's Sure Damnation! 

Please Let Jesus Christ Aka The Great Physician
The Prince Of Peace
Fix And Heal You By His Saving Grace! 

Pray Fervently ... And Touch Your King 
Who Was Touched To Save You! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Our Position In The Race For Life!

 







I Need To Utter A Deep, Deep, Sigh! 
Siiiighhhh ...

Brethren, Beloved, 

Listen Unto Me! 
We Have A Choice To Make: 
To Be Free To Sin 
Or To Be Free From Sin! 

We Have To Choose Between Friends, Family, Foes And The Fiend 
And 
The Father, The Maker Of Us All! 

Brethren, 

We Need To Get Back To That Time Which Was Before 
Our Inglorious Fall
Before The Silken Ties Of Affection
The Lust Of The Flesh
The Lust Of The Eye
And 
The Pride Of Life 
Dictated Our Walking
Our Speaking
And 
Our Position In The Race For Life! 

Dear Ones, 

Consider And Know This Thing: 
If You Know That Someone Is Digging A Grave For You
Don't, Don't, Do Not Give Them A Shovel Or An Excavator! 

If They Are Seeking To Bury You
Do Not Give Them The Dirt! 

Beloved, 

We Must Stand Up And Be Counted 
As Faithful To The Father 
Against Friends, Family, Foes, And 
The Damned-Forever Fiend 
And
We Should Hold To The Adage Which Says:

 
"Do Not Light Yourself On Fire
To Keep Somebody Else Warm!" 

The Way Of The Cross
The Strait And Narrow Way
The Way To Glory
Is Not 
Perfect Peaches
Perpetual Puppies And Kittens
And 
Unarmed Roses! 

Peaches Have Hidden Rot
Puppies And Kittens Become Elderly Dogs And Cats
And 
Roses Have Thorns And Attract Bees! 

The Point Is That 
Earthly, Earthy, Supposed Comfort Of Your Mind And For Your Body 
Costs You Something Now ... And Then Forever 
But
Heavenly Comfort Costs You The Earth Now 
But Gives You, Pays You, Forever Forever! 

The Choice, Our Choice, Is Clear: 
Jesus For Joy! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Is Your Life A Verifiable Lie!?!









What Is Life!?! 
Are You Living A Lie!?! 

Beloved, 

Do You Recognize, Accept
And 
Are Grateful For The Truth, The Fact, That 
We Each Have Life 
Because 
We Have The Father, Our Father, Who Is In Heaven!?! 

Do You Know, As In Understand, That 
Without Our Father, The Life-Giver, In Our Lives That 
You, Me, We Are Living A Verifiable Lie!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Are You Playing The Primary Part In Satan's Piece De Resistance 
Because 
You, Gasp, Are Denying Him Who Is The Truth 
Who, Alone, Saves You From The Accuser
The Piercing Serpent
The Raging Lion
The One Who Is Jealous Of Your Gift Of A Fruitful Life
Your Heritage As One Created In The Image Of God, After His Likeness
With The Lively Hope Of ... Going Home To Be With Our Father
In The Home Of The Forever Blessed!?! 

Brethren Beloved, 

Guard Your Heart! 

Be Sober, Be Vigilant
Be Very Careful Of Those Whom You Allow To Get Close To You! 

Be Sure To Cooperate With The Holy Spirit 
And
Be Sure To Moment By Moment Work Your Daily Gift Of 
Faith In Your Creator-God 
Who Loves You With An Everlasting Love That Is Life! 

Please Hold 
And
Enduringly Hold On To Your Father's Extended Hand Always 
For Your Life .... Everlasting! 

Peace!

VESPERS: Are You An Artist Or An Artisan!?!

KJV Proverbs 10:23
23 It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.
Christianity Is Not A Blood Sport 
But 
It Rests And Rises On The Blood Of The One And Only Christ Jesus 
Who Made Man In His Image And Likeness: 
All This Was Before The Great Flood! 

People Talk About Sports Figures 
And 
Lift Up Their Favorites 
Because Of Their Power, Artistry, And Agility 
But 
I Beg You, Dear One, To Think For A Moment 
About Whether Your Christianity Is Artistry Or Artisanry! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous 
Is 
The Artist With No Parallel 
And 
The List Of His Bona Fides Displays Creator 
And
Identifies His Creation As Heaven And Earth! 

As We Investigate Further
We Come To Understand That This Creator, The Creator
Is 
God Almighty
The One Alone Who Is Wise
And 
He Is Known For Having Gotten His Hands Dirty 
By Making Mankind From The Dust Of The Earth 
Which He Called Forth By His Word! 

Brethren, 

The Artistry And Longevity Of Renowned Sports Figures 
Is 
Of The Duration Called Short 
But 
The Artisanry Of The Creator God Is Ongoing 
Even To This Very Day Above And Below The Vault! 

Those "Christians" Who Are Artists
Who Work To Put On A Show To Entertain The Onlooking Hordes 
Add Neither Themselves Nor Another 
To The Living Kingdom Of God! 

Now, Beloved, As To Those Christians Who Are Wisely Artisans 
Going Into The Trenches For Christ's Sake
To Bless Their Fellow Man
They Will See And Apprehend 
Aka Hold On To The Glory Of 
Their Creator, Savior, Redeemer And Forever Friend
And 
Will Know That The Dirt Accumulated Under Their Nails 
Whilst Willingly Working For Their Maker-Master 
Will Be As The Gold In Their Glad-Day Crown! 

The Guaranteed Perk Of The Enduring-All
Faithful Until Death, Artisan-Christian 
Is 
Joy In Perpetuity! 

Are You Agile In The Word 
And 
Are You Using The Power Of God Mighty To Save To Perfection!?! 

Beloved, 

Don't Go About To Be An Entertaining GOAT, In Time
But 
Grow For The Goal, The Gold Of Eternity
With An Enduring All-For-Christ Spine! 

Remember, A Pretty Face Can't Make Pretty Music 
And 
A Christian Not Dirtied By Working And Praying 
Will Ever Enter Through Heaven's Pearly Gates! 

Don't Be The Fool! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Alpha-Strange Mix-And-Mashup Soup!?!

KJV Psalms 65:4
4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

The World Is Always Cooking Up A Pot Of Alphabet Soup 
Where The Meaning Of The Letters Is Ever Changing And Expanding 
No Matter Under Whose Table 
You Choose To Pull Up A Chair! 

Even The Church, The House Of God!?! 

Yes! Indeed And For Sure! 

Lord, Be Merciful! 

He Is! 

Brethren Beloved, 

I Ask You Simple And Plain
Why Would You Choose To Be A Friend To A Man-Made God 
When You Are Called To Be A Child Of Almighty God 
Who In His Image, And After His Likeness, He Made Man!?! 

Why Would You Choose To Starve On Alpha-Strange Mix-And-Mashup Soup 
When You May Survive On 
And 
Be Elevated To Jesus Christ's Glory 
By Imbibing Wittingly On The One And Only Unchangeable
Incorruptible, Lead, Guide, Bless And Teach Soup Of Salvation 
From The Lord's Storehouse Of Good For You 
And 
Plenty More To Come Of Which You Don't Know Anything!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Fast Food And Fast Fashion Have Corrupted The Taste Buds 
And 
Blinded The Eyes 
And 
Warped The Desires Of The Multitudes 
Whilst Encouginging Them To Go For The Thrill Of 
"Do What Thou Will!" 
When You've Got A Twinge Of The I-Feels! 

Christ's Followers Are Not To Live Thus 
And 
I Beg, Plead, And Beseech Us All 
To Get The Lord's Eye-Salve For Healed Eye-Sight
And 
Beseech The Lord To Permit The Angel 
To Cleanse Our Tongues With A Coal From Heaven's Altar! 

These Are Dangerous Times 
To Be Taste-Testers At Curious Restaurants 
Fronted By Gourmet Chefs Who Are Gormands 
Who Also Love To Dish Out Punishment On Plates And In Bowls 
To Abuse Other People's Brains And Bowels! 

Beloved, 

Please Stick To The Lamb Who Is The Shepherd
The Lion Who Is Your Lord And Leader
And 
The King Who Loves You ... Personally And Individually
And 
Will Feed You Himself On The Glad Day 
At The Long Table In The Family House! 

Be Enthusiastic For The Joy Of Eternity
Not The Jollies Of Unsatisfying Entertainment! 

Jesus Christ Is The Joy Of Living! Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: There's A Thing ...!

KJV Proverbs 14:34
34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

When You Were A Silly Child
Do You Remember You Or Your Mates Pelting 
Aka Throwing "Rock-Stones" On The Ground, At Walls
At Anything Convenient
And, Perhaps
Having That Rock-Stone Fly Back At You, Or One Of Your Mates Real Hard 
And 
Smack The Snot Out Of Them!?! 

It Was Shocking And It Hurt So, So, Soo, Badly! 

Sin Does That! 

Dear Ones, 

Just Like A Tongue
No One Can Control Sin To Decide What It Does Or Who It Affects
Be It A Little Or A Whole Lot! 

Consider The Sewer Line! 

Everybody Takes It For Granted
Walking Around On Top Of It Unconcernedly
Uncaring, Unaware, Unimpressed, Unbothered 
Until That Sewer Line Backs Up And Belches 
Then Everybody An' 'e Bruddah Done Know What And Where It Is 
And 
What It Does
And 
Who It Affects 
And
Demands Release And Relief 
From Its Cruel Control By Stench! 

Beloved, 

Don't, Don't, Please Do Not Fool Yourself Into Believing That 
Sin Can't Do You Anything 
Because 
You Have It On A Short Leash! 

Old Cossie Had De Mule On A Short Leash 
And
It Still Kicked The Black Off Him! 

You've Been Warned! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: No Need To Fear

KJV Acts 2:28
28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

I Have My New Life In The Light Of Life 
So I Have No Need To Fear The Dying Day That Comes At The End Of Life 
Nor The Thought Of Being Cast Off, Being Cast Into Outer Darkness
Since The Author Of Life Is My Lord
And
The Light Of My Life! 

What About You!?! 

Beloved, 

We Set Great Store In Our Senses 
But 
We Need To Repose Them In Him Who Is The Door 
To See And Know That They Are Oh, So Much More! 

We Have Eyes To See Where To Walk
To See The Beauty Of The Earth
To See To Avoid Evil
To See To Do Good And Right
And 
To See To Climb To Higher Heights
And 
To See To Show Others Why For Us 
Jesus Christ Is The Joy Of Living 
And 
Our Heart's Delight! 

We Have Ears To Hear The Sound Of Silence
The Still Small Voice Of The True And Living God! 

We Also Hear The Noise Of Loud And Aggressive Persons
The Sound Of Joy, Sorrow, Shame, Hope, Help
And 
The Word Of Truth 
And
The Call To Everlasting Life! 

We Have A Nose
Two Nostrils Through Which Entered 
The Breath Of Life From God! 

We Inhale The Beautiful Fragrances From Flowers And Trees
The Aroma Of Good Food
And 
We Are Repulsed By The Stench Of Fear, Waste, Decay, Death! 

We Adore The Smell Of New Life
And 
New Life In Christ! 

We Have A Tongue 
To Taste Bitter, Sweet, Sour, Bland, Savory
And 
The Ability To Taste And Tell The Truth 
And 
To Savor And Spit Lies! 

We Soothe Self 
And 
Scar Others With Our Tasting Bit! 

We Are Able Also To Taste And See That 
The Lord Is Good! 

We Have The Ability To Touch And Be Touched
To Feel And Be Felt! 

We Are Touched By The Hand Of God 
Or Terrorized By The Nails Of The Devil! 

With Love We May Lift Up The Fallen 
Or By Rage And Hate 
We May Push, Press, Or Pound Them Into The Ground! 

We May Heal Or Hurt, Help Or Hinder! 

We May Allow Our Lord's Love To Lead Us
And 
Let His Love Perfected In Us
Love Others Into The Kingdom Of Light Where Everlasting Love Lives! 

A Life Minus God's Love 
And
Lived By Our Senses 
Concludes With Eternal Separation From The Giver Of Life! 

The Life Lived For The Lord 
Sees The Senses Used For The Glory Of The Eternal God 
And 
Us Beginning Everlasting Life 
In The Great Reward With Our Blessed Lord! 

We Have No Need To Fear 
When Our Senses Point Us To The Savior 
Who Purchased And Provides Salvation 
For Us Who Are Willing To Be Saved: 
Do Not To Your Carnal Senses Be Enslaved! 

Give Your All, Your Everything, To Christ Jesus 
And 
Know That For You
Your Senses Are Tools Useful In The Salvation Trade 
Where New Life Is Given In Exchange For The Old And Cold! 

To The Savior, Go Bold! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: True Beauty!

KJV Psalms 49:20
20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

Beauty ... Exposed A Beast! 
The Beauty Of That Beast Called Lucifer, Renamed Satan
Wrought Pain For Me And Thee! 

To Rid Me And My Kind Of The Pain That Is Sin 
Which Causes Death And Ultimately Damnation
The Truly Beautiful Savior ... The Eternal God
Took Our Sin, Our Pain
Our Death
Our Damnation Into Himself
And 
Gave Us His Ineffaceable, Ineffable
Fadeless, Immortal, Incorruptible Beauty 
... If ... We Would But Ask 
Because 
It Is Free! 

Our Savior's Pain Purchased For Me, For You
For Us All Willing
True Beauty
The Kind Of Beauty Which Is Righteous
Holy, Grace-Filled 
And 
Comes Of Obtained Mercy 
Which Welcomes Us To The Throne 
And 
Seats Us At The Table Of The King Of Love! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have A Choice To Make 
Which Has An Inherent Challenge To Overcome! 

Are You Going To Party On Easy Street 
Or Live On Hard Way!?! 

Are You Going To Go Easy And Immoral 
To "Gain" Short-term Benefit To Please Your Lusts 
And 
Impress The Wicked And The Gullible 
Or Are You Going To Make The Hard Decision 
Which Gleans For You The Eternal Weight Of Glory 
As You Bless Your Savior With Your Obedience To His Will 
... Even As You Walk In His Way 
Blessing His Called And Chosen Ones 
Who Are Diligently Seeking His Face And His Extended Hand 
Which Bring Hope, Help And Healing
... As We Head, With The Endurance Of Faith
To Our Father's House 
Which Is Our Forever Home!?! 

Jesus Christ Is Love Is Beauty ... Beautiful! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Let Him Envelop You 
As You Bury Yourself In Him 
To Be Like Him Now, Today ... Forever! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The Honest Expectation!

KJV Psalms 62:5
5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

If You Give To Me And I Give To You 
We Will Both Have What We Need! 

What Is Your Honest Expectation!?! 
What Is ... What Is In ... Your Future!?!
What Is Your Hope!?! 
Do You Truly Believe The Unfailing Word Of God 
And
Are You Using It With This Life To Cope!?! 

Let's Back It Up A Notch And Ask 
"Do You Have Great Expectations Of Those Whom You Can See 
And
Are They Permitted To Have Great  Expectations Of You 
Or
Do You From Them Flee 
Once You Have Gotten Your Own Expectations Fulfilled!?!" 

Brethren Beloved, 

Think Deeply On This Thing: 
The Cooperative Act Of Love Brings Babies! 

To Kiss, The Participants Must Come From Opposite Directions 
And
Cooperate! 

To Wash One's Face, The Backs Of One's Hands Will Not Suffice
And 
To Cradle The Book Of Wisdom
Our Palms Must Not Divide 
But 
Come Together And Look Up In Cooperation! 

Dear Ones, 

We Do Not Do A Good Thing
When We Expect And Take Much From Others 
And 
Give Nothing In Return! 

We Do An Horrible And Awful Deadly Thing 
When We Take The Lord's Good And Perfect Gifts 
And 
Basely Do Not With Thanksgiving Give Him Our Damnable Sin 
Because 
We Have The Great Expectation That He
- Having Paid The Price For Our Sin - 
Will Gift Us Salvation Anyhow 
Because 
We Know That That Is His Thing ... For Love! 

Beloved, 

Be Careful: The Difference Engine Works! 

One Day, On Earth As In Heaven
Our Bills Will Become Due 
And 
It Is My Prayer For Us All That Before Then
We Will Have Taken Jesus Christ's Gift Of Free 
By Giving Up Satan's Expensive 
Aka Taken Indeed-Free And Salvation 
And
Given Up Slave-To-Sin And Damnation! 

Do Not Be Presumptuous: 
Probation Runs Out For Every Single Human 
So Please Do Not Allow The You-Spend And Jesus-Pay Account 
To Zero-Out On You
And 
I Mean Me, Too! 

Jesus Christ Saves! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Love Lifted Me!

KJV Psalms 97:10
10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

Love Is Spelt, Care! 
Care Is Spelt, Help! 
Help Is Spelt, Bless! 
Bless Is Spelt, Jesus 
And 
Jesus Is Spelt, Love! 

Whether We Believe Or Not
We Are Resident In The Circle Of Love! 

Love Conquers All! 
Love Gives All! 
Love Is Over All 
And 
Love Negates The Effects Of 
Our Known Unnecessary But Evident Fall! 

Beloved, 

We May Rest In Love 
And 
Be Restored To Good And Regular Standing 
By Making Peace With Love Who Is Peace 
And
Is Our Peace! 

All That We Need To Do 
Is 
Boldly Go To Love's Throne Of Grace 
To Obtain Mercy 
And
Grace To Help Us ... In Our Time Of Need! 

We Need Love! 
You Need Love! 
I Need Love! 

Brethren, 

Please Never Forget That Jesus, Our God, Is Love! 

Love
Heavenly Love
Abiding Love
Eternal Love
Holy Love
Frees And Saves To The Uttermost 
The One Who Believes In
Calls Upon
And 
Reaches For The Extended Hand Of Love 
Who Brings Hope, Help, Healing
And 
The Forever Home! 

Dear Ones, 

We Say That We Love Jesus
So Let Us With Contrite Hearts 
Confess All Our Known Sin 
And
With Humility 
Repent ... Turn Away From Sin
And 
Truly Love Love By Keeping His Commandments 
Which Are Not Burdensome! 

Love Does Not Hurt! 
Love Lifts! 
Let Us Lift Up Love 
As Love Leads Us Gently, Safely, Home! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Indulgence And Expectation Are Strange Bedfellows!


KJV Romans 11:33
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

It's Amazing! 
We Indulge In Our Putrid Pleasures And 
Then Have The Expectation That 
The Prince Of Peace Will Quickly, Instantly
Relieve Us Of The Predicted Pain Of Prophesied Punishment! 

How!?! 
Why!?! 

Indulgence And Expectation Are Very Strange Bedfellows! 

We Unleash Indulgence With The Expectation Of Joy, Pleasure
But 
If You Noticed
We Have Not Appended The Necessary Adjective
The Vital Descriptive Of Warning 
Which Should Be Screaming At Us Free-Will, Free-Choice, Big Spenders! 

Dear Ones, 

Remember This! 
Just Because You Are Free To Do Anything
It Does Not Mean That You Should Choose To Unleash Indulgence! 

Have You No Knowledge Of "Act In Haste ... Of Wanton Desire
And 
Repent At Leisure ... With Sorrowing, Painful Regret!?! 

Beloved, 

Be Warned! 

Doing What You Want Means 
Paying What You Can't Afford ... After A Little While! 

The Length, The Duration, Of The Little While 
Is
Ever In The Lord's Hands
His Timing
His Will
His Way 
And
There Is No Created Being That Can Tell Him "No!" 

Brethren, 

One Thing Is Certain! 
If What We Choose To Indulge Is Under The Lord's Prohibition
His "Thou Shalt Not!" 
We Can All Rest Assured That 
We Will Undoubtedly Suffer The Prophesied Curse Of 
Guaranteed Punishment! 

Conversely, The Lord's "Do As I Have Commanded You!" 
Results In His Prophesied Blessings At Home And Abroad
Of Peace In Him 
And 
Rest With Him! 

I Encourage Us All To Rabidly Reject 
Damned Satan's "Do What Thou Wilt 
Aka Do What Pleases You!" 
And
Joyfully Accept The Lord's Easy Yolk And Light Burden 
Which Lead To Heavenly Joys ... Forevermore! 

We Can't Beat God's Giving 
So Choose To Enjoy The Lord 
And 
His Ways Always And In All Ways! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Fair Exchange!?!

KJV Zechariah 3:4
4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
Fair Exchange Is Not Robbery! How, In The Name Of Him Who Is Holy, Can There Be A Fair Exchange When I Gave You Rocks That Are Diamonds And You Gave Me Rocks That Are, Errrm, Rocks!?! Don't Talk To Me About That! That Is A You-Problem! Ohhh, I See! My Bad! I Forgot, Just For A Moment, That We Were Demonstrating The Jesus And Sinner, Salvation And Sin, Savior And Saint Thing! Oh, Goodie! We Are All Caught Up! Beloved, Have You Ever Considered What It Is That Jesus Christ Has Done And Is Doing For Us When He Says "Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor And Are Heavy Laden And I Will Give You Rest!?!" Aren't You Heavy Laden With Sin!?! Isn't Jesus Christ Swapping Out Your Sin And Replacing It With His Rest As In His Perfect Peace!?! Didn't Your Sin Kill Jesus!?! Doesn't His Rest Give You Everlasting Life!?! With That Said, Dear One, Why Would You Not Give All Of Your Sin To Jesus Instead Of Crucifying Him Afresh When You Turn Back To The Flesh-Pots Sitting Down To Eat And Getting Up To Play!?! Do You Not Understand That When Jesus Christ As Savior, Surety, Redeemer, Lord, God, King, And Friend Takes Your Rocks - Which Are Of Life-Extinguishing Weight - And Gives You His Diamonds Of The First Water Aka The Fruit Of His Holy Spirit, That You Are Acquiring All Gain And Thus, Suffering No Loss!?! Beloved, Every Thing That You Give Up For And To Our Lord Jesus Is Replaced By An Imperishable Good And Perfect Gift For Which There Is No Comparison! Come Now! Since Jesus Considers Your Temporal Give-Ups As Fair Exchange For His Eternal Give-To's, Does It Not Become You To Be Wise Unto Salvation For Your Own Self, And Go All In For The Eternal Win!?! Please Don't Be Faithless But Be Faithful, Trusting Him Who Cannot Lie To Give You The New Life Which Cannot Die! Believe The Promise Of The Living Word And Accept What You Cannot Lose But Can Be Thrown Away Through Doubt And Disobedience! Please, In The Name Of The Holy Jesus, Give Up Your Fig Leaves! Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Rest In The Lord!

Wise! 
Unwise! 
Who Will You Be!?! 
Will You Be Among The Blessed And Saved
Or The Damned ... Those Souls Ungodly!?! 

KJV Psalms 115
11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

Going To Man For Help Instead Of Almighty God 
Is 
Like Chewing And Choking On Dry Chalk 
When You Could, Instead, Be Eating Cherries And Cheese: 
There Is No Profit In It! 

The Lord Whom We Hold In Godly Fear, In Awe
To Whom We Choose To Approach By Working, Unwavering, Faith 
Distinguishes Himself From All Pretenders 
By Being Able, Willing, Ready And Available To Help Us 
When We Need Help ... Which Is Every Moment Of Every Day
No Matter The Situation 
And 
He Is Able To Shield Us ... If It Is His Will ... From The Situation! 

The Lord, Mighty To Save
Will Bring You To A Situation For The Saving Of Your Soul 
And 
By Your Exercise Of Faith In Him
He Will Carry You Through Your Night Of Despair 
To Emerge At The Dawning Of The Light Of The Perfect Day! 

Our Job One, Beloved
Is 
To Fear God
Trust His Word
Ask For And Depend On His Holy Hand Of Certain And Present Help
And
Shelter Under 
And 
Stand Behind The Shield That Faith Built, Builds
And 
Is Ever Building! 

Please Remember This ... 

Goliath The Boastful Giant Had Man-Made, Giant-Sized, Metal Armor 
But 
Psalmist-Shepherd David Had Holy Faith
Righteous Zeal
And 
God-Made Smooth Stones! 

Working Faith Paid Off: 
Goliath Died! 

Please Rest In The Word 
And
Trust The Lord Always ... And Be Eternally Blessed! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Casting Call!?!

KJV Isaiah 65:24
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

Wide Broadway Had Long Time Past
Has Recently Been
And 
Is All Now Issuing A Call For Principal Players And Extras 
For Their Spectacular, Their Extravaganza
And 
The Turnout  Is Nothing Short Of A Blowout! 

Everybody Vertical And Ventilating With Visions Of Arriving Is There! 

I Was Tempted, Sorely Tempted
And 
Had At One Point In My Life Joined The Snaking Queue 
To Get My Equity Card! 

One Day, One Of My Bad Days, As I Was Still Waiting 
And 
Being Ensnared By The Stories Of Those Who Had Already Made It 
I Started To Zone Out With A Feeling Of Why Bother 
When I Reached The Cross-Road For Off-Broadway! 

It Was There That I Saw A Simply Dressed Soul 
And 
Heard His Soft Voice Calling 
For Those Who Desired To Be Kings And Priests To The Most High God
For Those Who Would Be Pillars In The House Of Almighty God
For Those Who Desired Peace And Rest For Their Weary Souls
And 
For Those Who Would Prefer To Be Door-Men In The House Of God 
Than To Dwell In The Tents Of Wickedness! 

He Wasn't Finished! 

He Went On To Make The Call 
For Those Who Were Weary And Troubled
For Those Who Desired To Be Saints Of God And Christ
For Those Who Would Sound The Battle Cry For Life
And 
For Those Who Would Be Part Of The Flock Of Sheep 
Who Would Safely Graze Under The Watchful Eye Of 
The Good Shepherd! 

There Was No Waiting
No Call-Backs
No Business Managers
No Publicists
No Vultures
No Casting Couches
No Brunches
No After-Parties
And 
Hallelujah, Jesus
No Users Or Abusers! 

I Walked To Him! 

That Man At The Entrance Of The Narrow Road Off Broadway 
Called Strait 
Smelled Clean
Embodied Light
Told Truth
And 
Gave Me Something Called Grace And Mercy 
From The Welcome Table Sponsored By Love 
Accompanied By The Comforter! 

I Walked Into Love
Cooperated With The Comforter
And 
Knew Peace Who Gave Me The Gift Called Faith 
And 
Promised Me A New Supply Every Day From That Day On 
And 
As Long As I Lived And Had My Being! 

I Was, I Am Amazed ... I Had To Tell You About It! 

Dear One, 

We All Have Great Expections 
But ... And
It Is A Rare Thing For Reality To Meet Expectations! 

I Have Come To Realize That 
I Do Not Desire To Be A Second Class
Even Last Class Citizen 
In The Liar's Third Rate Melodrama! 

I Choose To Have And Be With Peace 
Because 
He Is Love And Loves Me ... Sacrificially! 

The Liar Wants To Sacrifice Me 
But 
My Free-Will Decision Is Clear ... Is Made! 

I Choose My Lord Jesus And Him Glorified! 
Please Join Me! 
Peace!

Vespers At The End Of The Sabbath: Who Guides Your -Ship!?!


KJV Ephesians 5:15-16
15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

-Ships Abound! 
What Kind Of -Ship Is Yours!?! 

We Can Be Like Jesus And To Accomplish This
We Are Each Offered A Lifetime Apprenticeship 
In The Righteousness School Of King Jesus Aka The King Of Love
Where The Teacher, Not Professor Nor Educator
Is 
The Holy Spirit Of God 
Who Leads The Diligent Apprentices Into All Truth! 

Beloved, 

Interestingly Enough And Sadly
There Is The Malevolent Spirit Running Amok 
Who Is Also Offering Free Apprenticeships 
To His About-Me School 
Where Advanced Placement GS&P Classes 
Are The Hot Ticket! 

Strangely Enough
There Is Not A Step Up To A Brighter Day Celebration 
For Any Of The Thousands Of Years That 
The Malevolent Spirit's About-Me School Has Been In Existence! 

On The Other Hand, Dear Ones
What Is Amazingly Beautiful About The King Of Love's School Of Righteousness 
Is 
That It Has A Parallel -Ship Class 
For All Of Those Students In Its Apprenticeship Program Of Education! 

It Is Called Friendship 
And 
It Gives All Apprentices Direct Anytime Access To 
The Creator-Owner
Founder-Operator
Sustainer-Maintainer Of The School 
Where Grace And Mercy 
And 
Justice And Peace Are Its Hallmarks! 

The Apprentices Remaining Therein To The Program's Completion 
Are Eternally Blessed! 

Brethren Beloved, 

In The Name Of Jesus Christ The Lord 
Understand That To Be Forewarned 
Is 
To Be Forearmed 
So Please Make A Note-Well Warning 
In Your Need To Know File! 

The King Of Love 
Is 
Your, My, Our Forever Friend! 


The Malevolent Spirit 
Is 
The Now-Present Fiend 
And 
His Advanced Placement GSP Classes 
Are For Intensive Tutoring In Greed, Selfishness And Pride 
Which Gives Its Apprentices A Hot Ticket To Hell 
On The Day That The Judge Of All Flesh Appoints! 

The Malevolent Spirit Has Already Been Found Wanting 
And 
Has Been Judged And Condemned! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Be Purposeful And Intentional In Your Grace-Filled Walk And Work 
For The Judge, Prince Immanuel, The King Of Love: 
He Equips All Of His Apprentices With Faith For Today ... Every Day! 
Be Wise! 
Peace!
