I lost loved ones and close friends because I didn't try hard enough, and I spent to much time in iniquity and sin when I should've been following after the things of God, and the things I knew would make a dent, and a cut in the veil of darkness over their illusions. I was supposed to be my brothers keeper, and be of good repor. But my brother got the mark recently, I just found out. I feel pretty certain that if I had sought out the good soil and planted the right seeds, like I had done in the past, but just kept seeking and kept planting, he would've been saved. In other words, if I had just done Gods Commandments, then it would've been good with me. And their names should not of been cut off from before us.
Woe unto the Idle Shepard. My Poverty rides on bedsprings, and my sins prevent the Kingdom of Heaven. Take a note, that the sins of man shed blood. If the Prophets forsook things that would cause their brothers to sin, what end might our brothers have, if we were their keepers, and we caused them to sin. It is written, Seek thy brothers soul as it were thy Own. How am I to go before God and say that I sought his soul as it were my own, when I sought his soul as a novelty. If his soul were mine, it would be dead in lukewarm neglect from all the times I hesitated, or kept my mouth shut, and all the effort I didn't put in. Faith without Works is Dead.
There is no pleasure in that the wicked are destroyed. But that they through repentance come unto Belief in Jesus Christ and be Saved. Is it not the Heart of the Church to Please the Lord
The Question is no longer what will befall the wicked, but how can the Righteous be Saved. We have to walk the straight and narrow, and be Sharp as Gods Arrows. Sin and Iniquity muddy the Field of the Lords Harvest. We are Besieged. Jesus Fought the Good Fight and Saved the World. Those of us that have fallen by the wayside, and stumbled from the way, need to Take Up Our Crosses, and Follow the Truth and the Way and the Light. Dig up the Talons, Prepare the Way, Jesus said No One would Believe if it weren't for Signs and Miracles. We ought to be to them as a Sign and a Miracle. Hot as Hell and Freezing like the Firmament in His Holy Spirit, So that we might Extoll the Father, and they're ears might be opened to his call, and that they might come to the son.
Does one Light a Lamp and set it under a bush that it might be Hid?
Did God Light a Fire in the Church and Pour His Spirit Out Upon Us
So That We Could Be Hid. Are we not the Church of Jesus Christ that
Is His Beacon of Light through the World, even the Morning Stars that
Sang together before the Creation.
