The Exceptionally Few

Always considering the eyes of men.  That’s how most people live out their days.  It takes an exceptionally confident man to do his work in a crowd without notice of the eyes that watch.  And oh how few they are!

The fear of man pervades our every thought.  “What will they think?  What will they say?  What will they do to me for my failings?  Have I been successful at hiding my nakedness?  Do they still see my weakness?”   And so, fear is given a place to live.

Do you want freedom?  Do you want to live with a confidence that rises above the fear of men?  Do you want to become a member of the exceptionally few?

Then seek out the Christ of God with every fiber of your life!  No man can possibly rid himself of this kind of fear.  He has to develop an unshakable belief in the love of God for himself.   That’s when confidence arrives.

It’s not enough to say that God is love.  That’s not enough to dispel the fear.  You have to let your soul live in heaven, even while your body lives among men.  Then there is no fear.

Christ Jesus can do that for you.  He can set you free of every fear, even death. 

You can trust this message.  It is faultless, and will find full acceptance before the Living God.  It is in fact the message he has been preaching since the day of Adam and Eve.

From a trickle to a monstrous wave,

Sweeping naked all the shore,

Is the torrent of forgiveness
From the one whose heaven born.

The Fullness

The Wisdom of God among men is that they should have faith.  The miracle among men, from God, is that there are many who do have faith.  The Faith from God believes (with a certainty) that Jesus is the Christ of God.  The Faith from God among men believes that Jesus is risen from the dead, for death had nothing with which to hold him.  And The Faith does more than remember that history was made.  The Faith becomes the Love of God, which is the Holy Will of the Father in all creation.

Yet Love does not appear without dressings.  Fear of God, knowledge of the Holy Word he sustains among us, right assessment of the fruit of men, and that specific “doing” that comes only from the power of the Holy Spirit among and within us.  With the appearance of these things within us, we can define the Love of God.  Yet our definition of the Love of God is limited to the wisdom of God to send his knowledge among men.

There is a fullness in heaven, regarding what is revealed of the nature of God.  There is a fullness on earth, regarding what is revealed of the nature of God.  In heaven, the fullness of revelation is embraced without question or reserve.  But on earth, the fullness of revelation of the Love of God is restricted by our willingness to believe to the “doing”.

Who, then, of men, are willing to throw off restriction?  Who, among men, are willing to embrace the fullness of God’s wisdom of revelation to Man?  Who, among men, finds the will to “Become”?

The Wrong Religion

To glorify Christ!  That is the object of Christianity among men.

It’s not so we can dress up pretty once a week!

It’s not so we can carry around the biggest baddest Bible anybody’s ever seen!

It’s not so we can say some gibberish prayer at dinner.

It’s not so that we can look down our nose at every human being!

Its not a get rich quick scheme!

It’s not some warm fuzzy!

It’s not a religion!

It’s not just a clean conscience so we can keep on sinning!

And it’s not an insurance policy that will allow us to float around on a cloud for eternity while we strum a golden harp!

We are saved in Christ to die for Christ.  We are saved in Christ it we might be transformed to be like him; holy and acceptable to He who sits on the Holy Throne forever.

To say no to self and to say yes to Christ!  That’s what Christianity is!  That’s what we are saved to do!  If you ain’t doing that you got the wrong religion!

Proper Conversation

I am forced to

Think again

The value of

Earth’s discourse.

Which is greater,

The three dimension,

Or heaven which spreads,

In all direction?

Although it’s fun to

Play the game,

Where logic’s

Lite and breezy.

Better to bear the

Hard light torch,

That sets men’s

Bellies queasy.

So back again to

The work at hand.

No time to

Waste round here.

To speak of

Jesus Christ the King,

Bringing heaven so

Very near.

So many things to touch and see.

So many things lay out of reach.

The fingers of men will grasp and twist.

But they can never touch what’s His.

Why do you fear, O little flock?

Do you fear the hands of men?

Where are your treasures laid up in stock?

On earth or bound in heaven?
