“Thy word have I hid in mine heart,
that I might not sin against thee.”
“…They show by every word & gesture that they do not belong to this earth…Those who now possess it [earth] by violence & injustice shall lose it…”

There were some evangelical preachers/writers who were better than the theology they espoused. The same is possibly true for an evangelical singer or two. But sadly the majority of people who identify with non-holiness groups, do so on purpose – they don’t believe you (here/now) can be holy. SO – – – should you listen to their sermons/songs? Unless you’re careful *Mighty Careful* you’ll hear their weak theology said/sung & begin to imbibe its. It’s safer to stop listening to Calvinist people in sermon or song. – 1/7/2021
“…Sanctification keeps us in that fellowship in Christ…the Christian’s separation from the world…sanctification enables him to abide in Christ to persevere in faith & to grow in love.”

Want to make an interesting list? Actually two of them? #1 List ALL the things you do not have to have to make you happy. #2 List ALL the things you’ve never done (or owned or visited, etc) and that you can die happy without doing/owning. One list (or another) might help you realize that you are content. (BTW, manufactures of “gobble-gook” work to make you discontent – outwit them, with God’s help.) – 1/16/21
Song Message
The “cute” little song
May not be all wrong
But, if it doesn’t honor the Lord, is it right?
The message of the “lark”
May not be all dark
But shouldn’t its “sermon” be centered on light?

Every soul in Heaven (high above us, wherever you live) once roamed earth on foot or beast, in boat/car/plane. Every soul in Hell (below you anywhere) used to wander in a valley similar to yours. Saints & sinners lived (many times) near enough to know each other – saints tried to witness, sinners refused to believe. Never will they live side by side again. Friend, you soon (a yr.? a decade?) will join the Upper Joyful Assemble or souls lonely & mourning below. The choice is yours. – 1/18/21
