Slip and Slide

Slip and Slide.

Cain slew his brother Able without provocation. Simple jealously and personal chastisement drove the hand with the clod that struck the deadly blow. The bible record does not elaborate further than the act, burial and denial by Cain. Because evil had entered into the hearts of all God’s people they began to slip and slide further and further from the right way into the waiting arms of Satan. Eternal life on earth had been forfeited. Peace and tranquility had become null and void. Hate, greed and coveting replaced love in peoples heart. As births occurred, these evil traits were passed on through generations. God turned a rejecting back toward humankind. It grieved Him that he ever created them. It was a pattern of “slip and slide” into deeper depravity until all the thoughts of people on earth were evil. One mans life appeared before God and displayed belief and righteousness. His name was Noe and he was predestined to save a strain of all life. God destroyed all but Noah’s family and squelched the earth. Slipping and sliding of Christians from and into Godly practices creates displeasure in heaven and precariously perches them on the bring of God’s judgment. Some tend to slip into some church for a while. Finding fault the slide out and slip into another. Repeatedly, they find faults and lack understanding and faith. Faith comes from hearing and hearing from the Word of God in all its facets. The uncertainty of slipping and sliding is a red flag. To sit in the loving hand of God and become like Him get off the skate board of Satan's playing field and Know God!

Romans 8:1 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

Colossians 2:6 “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:” (Ephesians 5:15) “See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,”
Ephesians 2:10 “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”

Hebrews 8:1 “Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;”

Hebrews 12:1 “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Know God, know peace. Amen 06\12\21 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
