*MERCIES*

 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies. Let me fall now into the hand of the Lord. Great are Thy tender mercies, O Lord: quicken me according to Thy judgments. For very great are His mercies. Yet Thou in Thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: yet when they returned, and cried unto Thee, Thou heardest them from heaven; and many times didst Thou deliver them according to Thy mercies; Nevertheless for Thy great mercies’ sake Thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for Thou art a gracious and merciful God. Let Thy mercies come also unto me, O Lord, even Thy salvation, according to Thy word. Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for Thy mercies’ sake. Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant: save me for Thy mercies’ sake. Let Thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for Thy law is my delight. Arise for our help, and redeem us for Thy mercies’ sake. According unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Hear me, O Lord; for Thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of Thy tender mercies. Let Thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for Thy law is my delight. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort. For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against Him. For we do not present our supplications before Thee for our righteousnesses, but for Thy great mercies. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering.  I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies.

THE *ONLY* GOSPEL

May the Holy Spirit graciously aid me to set forth plainly and powerfully JESUS CHRIST and Him crucified. Only a Miracle of God's Grace can bring Gospel Truth home to the conscience and heart of a sinner, and make him sense and feel the terror of the CURSE of the LAW and flee to JESUS for Refuge. There is Only One Gospel in all the Earth, and the God of all the Earth is the Author and Finisher of The Gospel. The God of all the Earth's name is the Lord Jesus Christ, THE KING OF KINGS, and LORD OF LORDS. JESUS is the Governor of the Earth and the entire Universe. (Matthew 2:6) 

As long as you remain in your natural sinful state, your Soul is under your Sin, under the Curse, under the Law, and under the Wrath of God. Only Christ Himself and His Righteousness can Ransom you and bring you under His Grace. You cannot be under the Curse and under Grace at the same time. You cannot be in your Sins and in Christ at the same time. You cannot be in Darkness and in the LIGHT at the same time. The MAN CHRIST JESUS not only deserves your Highest praise -- He deserves ALL your praise.

God Almighty has set forth strict demands in the Law of His Ten Commandments. You have disobeyed God's commandments, denied His claims, and your violations of His laws have brought your Soul under an eternal Penalty, which the Bible calls the CURSE. No man has ever kept the entire Law except JESUS CHRIST. You may think you've lived a decent and respectable life, and think you're so very good, and free from fault, but you're NOT according to the HOLY CREATOR. You have transgressed the LAW, and by your thoughts and actions have incurred the LAW's Penalty. Only JESUS is JUST; you are unjust. Only JESUS is RIGHTEOUS; you are wicked. God demands Absolute Sinless Perfection from you, how are you doing? God's LAW is the Holy Microscope, and the LAW is all-searching and detects Sins when you don't. The moment you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ you are no longer condemned, freed from the Curse, accepted in the Beloved; your Soul can rest in peace, and you're justified by Faith forever. 

Every man has sinned and fallen under the Curse of God's LAW, and you will remain under the Curse until you are Ransomed by the Precious Blood of the Crucified Creator. The LAW deals with your thoughts, desires, imaginations, motives, and intents of the heart. You are Guilty in every way, and Guilty every day. You have never loved the Lord God with all your heart, soul, strength and mind. You've not loved your neighbor as yourself. You've come way short of the God's righteous Law, and you are under the present Curse of God. If you die under the Curse, JESUS will say unto you, "Depart from ME, ye CURSED into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels." You are either Righteous or Wicked right now in God's sight. Your Soul is either Blessed or Cursed in God's sight this very moment. 

You will not get to Heaven by trying to do something for God; you will get to Heaven by what God's Son did for you; JESUS offered up Himself and loved you to death, laid down His life and shed His sinless Precious Blood for your sins and for the the Curse connected with your sins. There's only one of two things you will get in Eternity: Justice or Mercy. If you avoid and reject Christ, you're going to get Justice, or you come to Christ and be granted MERCY for His Great Mercies' sake. Do you want to get what your sins deserve from the infinitely Just Creator? Justice, Fiery Indignation, Vengeance, Wrath, Recompense, Everlasting Lake of Fire. The only way for a sinner to receive Mercy from the Creator is for an innocent Substitute to be punished in the sinner's place. There was no innocent person on Earth to be found, so God became a human being, and was born into this world at Bethlehem, the man Christ Jesus. JESUS was the Father's innocent Substitute/Atonement for human sins, The Lamb of God. God was manifest in the flesh, He condescended to Earth, and allowed His rebellious enemies to torture and kill Him on the Cross of Calvary. JESUS bore our sins in His own body, and became Sin for His enemies, and then JESUS finished the Blood Atonement that God required for human sins, so sinners could be freely forgiven for Jesus' sake. Now God is Just and the Justifier of the ungodly sinner who believes in JESUS. The ungodly sinner can now be given Christ's Righteousness freely through Faith in JESUS' atoning Blood. 

He that believeth not on JESUS is condemned already. The LAW curses every sinner, without exception, for we have all broken the LAW. The LAW utterly crushes all your self-righteous confidence. If you have committed one solitary violation of any command of God, you are Cursed by the Law. If at any time throughout your entire life, in any way (i.e., in deed, word, or thought, by omission or commission) strayed from absolute moral perfection, your Soul is Cursed with condemnation and guilt. JESUS said, "Whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." (Matthew 5:28) The LAW thoroughly searches our thoughts, imaginations, and secret desires. All men and women are polluted with Sin before God, and need to be cleansed by Christ's Atonement. JESUS' finished Atonement for human sin is the only way to approach God now and in Eternity.

A death-bed is a dreadful place to be an unpardoned sinner under the Curse of God. You are numbered with the guilty, you must be saved by the Mercy of Christ, stop looking for Salvation by your own obedience. The spirit of disobedience is working in you right now; you can never please God in the flesh. If you try to come to God in your self-righteousness, this proves that you are under the Curse. You are without God and Christ in this present evil world, having no hope, having no true communion with God,, and presently under God's wrath and Curse. You go to sleep every night under the Curse, you get up and go to school or work under the Curse every day, and you have a big time and play the fool on your cell phone while you are under the Curse. Your Sins defile and pollute your Soul every day. There are no exceptions, this condemnation is most sweeping. Every sinner comes under the Curse, every one you see at the store, at work, at home, they're all under the Curse, unless JESUS has rescued their Soul. Only the Precious Blood of God Incarnate can clear your Soul of all your sin's guilt. 

You may keep the Law for a few seconds while you're sleeping, but as soon as you wake up, you're going to transgress and violate the Law of God again and again. Christ Jesus came into the world to save LAW-breakers (sinners) from the Curse and Condemnation of the LAW. Just like a fiber optic cable can be perfectly sound for hundreds of miles, but if it is broken in one place, the data will not flow any further. You have broken the LAW, and there is no Light coming from God to your Soul whatsoever. It is an utter impossibility for you to obtain Salvation through the works of the Law. JESUS finished all that for you, and now you need to simple Receive His RIGHTEOUSNESS and BLESSEDNESS.  

Only Christ Himself can redeem a Soul from the Curse of the Law. He paid the Ransom with His own Blood, and He sets the sinner free, and buys the Soul back with a price. The Gospel produces a moral change in you at the New Birth from the Holy Spirit; the Divine Nature is imparted to the Soul. By the Ransom Price (Precious Blood), you are justly freed from the Curse. 

As long as you continue to avoid and reject Christ, you are imperiling your Soul day by day. All religious ceremonies are useless and obsolete. Only by the power of the Holy Spirit are converts made to Christ. Stick to the Only Gospel, Stay put at the Cross. The Gospel of Christ is the power of God unto Salvation. The Best News for fallen sinful men comes from the Cross of Christ, not some vain religion. The Gospel proclaims Jesus Christ crucified, buried, and risen the third day according to the Scriptures; this great truth must be fixed in the center of your heart. I will try to make clear the Gospel to your lost Soul and set forth the person, blood, and righteousness of the Man Christ Jesus, for He is the only way to the Father. 

Your sole hope and only confidence must be the Finished work of Christ Jesus the Righteous. Christ is the Capstone, Cornerstone, and Foundation of the Gospel through and through. Ask the Lord Jesus to help you know Him, ask the Lord Jesus to enable you to believe and trust HIM, and to take His very words as the only eternal Truth. Put everything else aside; you need to come into real Contact with the Bleeding and Risen Savior. May the Holy Spirit help you to understand the only Gospel, trust Christ, find Rest in Him, be perfectly Happy in HIM, all your sins will be washed away in His blood, and your Soul will be justified freely by His Righteousness.

Christ Jesus is the ALMIGHTY GOD and a Jewish Man in one Person. He put on human flesh and blood, so He could bear our sins and their penalty and curse. JEHOVAH condescended to suffer in the place of His enemies, and pay for the sins of those who offended Him and rebelled against His authority, and without tainting His holiness, He can now pardon sin freely, and receive sinners by His grace and mercy. JESUS lived a perfect, sinless life, and finished the work of the ATONEMENT (Romans 5:11) the moment He gave up the ghost on the Cross of Calvary. The Lamb of God is the sinner's Sinless Substitute. Sin is a polluting and damning thing; don't take Sin lightly. Only by bloody death of the Son of God could your Sins be paid for, forgiven, and your Soul be saved from damning guilt. Christ bore our sins and suffered the penalty due to our sins in you place, He was made a Curse for us, so the Justice of God could be satisfied, and we could be saved freely for Jesus' sake. 

I am saved by the Righteousness of Christ, not my own righteousness. The Father laid on JESUS my iniquities, He was oppressed and afflicted, so my Soul could be saved. Christ was made to be a CURSE for me in my place. Jesus bore my sins and my Curse that came with my Sins, He bled and died in the place of guilty sinners, especially me. 

The Curse of the Law fell on JESUS; The Father hid His face from JESUS. God made JESUS to be SIN for us. It pleased the Father to bruise JESUS; He hath put Him to grief. The penal consequences of the sins of the whole world were laid upon the Substitute, and He vindicated the Law of God fully forever, so I could go free. The Righteous Christ suffering in the ungodly sinner's place: this is Substitution, and The Only Gospel. It was a divine miracle how God became a human being and suffered for sins, and also magnified His own Law, bearing the CURSE instead of the criminal, and satisfied eternal Justice. 

JESUS is now risen from the dead, and interceding for every believer at the right hand of God. Thoroughly Believe in your heart for yourself, trust to the real Blood Atonement of Christ Jesus, or you will die and perish in your sins. Bind the Gospel of Christ to your heart; Make JESUS your only Confidence; Look to His bleeding wounds; Trust your Soul with Him. Cry out after JESUS, may the Holy Spirit bring you to your bearings, and get rid of all vanities, lies, whims, and nonsense. 

Death will soon be staring you in the face, you need to Focus on Christ, there must be close dealings between your Soul and Christ Himself. When its dying time for you, nothing will do but the Crucified Creator. His Precious Blood and Precious Righteousness must be on your Soul. This is the way to God: Childlike reliance upon JESUS' finished work. The Lamb of God suffered in your place: Christ agonizing, bleeding, dying for your sins on the Cross. Only JESUS can discharge your sin debts, and bear all your Curse and Penalty, that the Law demands. The Gospel saves, comforts, and draws the Soul nigh to God. There is no other Hope for lost sinful men but this: The Justice of God has been vindicated by the bloody death of the sinless Son of God, and by faith in His Precious Blood sinful men are delivered from the Curse of the Law, because JESUS was made a CURSE for sinners. God knows how wicked you have been, God is Just, and He must punish your sins, so God the Son in Mercy bore all your Guilt and Curse on the Cross, and now through grace I believe on JESUS. JESUS loved you, and gave Himself for you. O what a Perfect Atonement; receive the Truth of the Gospel, then receive JESUS Himself into your empty soul by Faith. The Gospel is available now and free for the taking. The horrors that JESUS felt in His soul for me, as He was suffering the wrath of God for my sins, are too vast to be conceived or expressed. God counts the sinner Righteous who believes in JESUS; God forgives all our sins, and justifies our Soul. Heartily receive the Savior into yourself by Faith in His Precious Blood. Do not cavil at the simple Gospel, for it is just to God, and very safe and free to sinners. Have done with trying, and Receive Christ's Atonement, His Finished Work. (John 19:30)

Receive JESUS now into your empty Soul by Faith in HIM, and after your Soul is born again, you will be sanctified by the presence of the Holy Spirit in your heart. Then you will begin to desire inward purity and private piety, you will begin to feel a horror and dread about sinning against God, you will walk cautiously and respectfully in Jesus' steps. You will be distressed in your mind at the thought of your sins and temptations. After your Soul is saved, and you led by the Spirit, you won't love Sin any more; you will dread and avoid Sin out of gratitude to JESUS for His bleeding Love to you.

BEWARE OF YOURSELF

Human nature says, "I will be my own master and king; me first, Christ last; I refuse to kiss the Son, or yield to His sway, I will have my own way, I will NOT have the man Christ Jesus to rule over me, I'm going to do my best to help Jesus out, I don't want the Holy Spirit leading me, I will make my Self fit for heaven without a Savior." Human nature is in open opposition to Christ. Human nature has an inward contempt for Christ's claims and demands. Human nature mocks at the thought of Christ reigning over it. Human nature is incensed at the Truth of the Gospel. The world sneers at and ridicules true followers of Christ. The true Gospel will either offend or draw the sinner; The Gospel will either harden or soften the heart; the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. JESUS said, He that is not with Me is against Me. 

The carnal mind is indifferent to Christ, and will never give Him access to the heart. The reason being is that the Gospel and Christ will cause a moral change within you, and the carnal minds loves immorality. You've never spent a whole hour of your life seriously considering Jesus Christ. You've never spoke of His glory and praise. You never tried to support His cause and spread His kingdom. You turn away from Jesus with contempt, and utterly ignore Him all through your day. Christ has no real power over your desires and actions. You continually degrade your Soul and defile and pollute your mind by sinning against God. You mock and insult the Savior. You are what you are, when you're all alone; that's when the real you shows his colors. What do you prefer rather to receiving and obeying Christ? You prefer lust, greed, money wrongly gained. Eternal damnation is at the back of your foolish choices; You choose a moment of folly, and the pleasures of sin for a season, and then eternal Hell fire, instead of Christ Jesus and His heaven. For popularity, the world's pleasures, and mammon's sake, you reject Christ. You are deliberately unchaste in your private life; dishonest in your trade; false in your speech; foul in your desires, heart and mind. 

You close your eyes in unbelief, and stopped your ears in willful ignorance. You prefer your own righteousness to the righteousness of God in Christ. You cling to your filthy rags with impudence. You think you don't need a Savior, and according to you, JESUS' Blood Atonement was a waste of time. You choose Sin rather than Repentance, and you'd rather suffer the everlasting wrath of God than come to Jesus Christ. For a few sinful pleasures you will lose your soul, deny the love of God. You are ready to run the risk of going into Eternity and facing damnation and perdition. You think very little of God, and make light of His Son. Scorning, spurning, despising, insulting and revolting is your way of living. Will you deride the Lord Jesus Christ who died for your sins? Why do you refuse His love, mercy, forgiveness? Resisting the tenderness of JEHOVAH'S bleeding love is pure insanity. You prefer your foul garments of self-righteousness and lying religious profession. You hasten to be rich, fret, toil, worry, worldly greatness, silly fears of man, vain glory, and selfish love of ease. There are hellish spots of sin covering your soul.

Human nature is fickle, shifting, fitful, vacillating, changeable as the wind. Your actions are based on human applause, frowns, smiles. fear of man, approbation, human approval, you vary like the climate. You are afraid of the prating gossip of the vulgar world's crowd. Human nature lauds and magnifies man, and please man's ear. You try to delude men's judgment with flattery for advantage. Man thinks he is a splendid intellectual creature, but Scripture ranks man with worms, and makes man less than nothing, Without Christ, you are in a desperate moral condition. You are what the Bible calls a worker of iniquity, you work hard sinning against God every day.

You full well reject the righteousness of God, that ye may keep your own righteousness. You transgress the Gospel by your commandments and traditions. You make the righteousness of God of none effect by your own righteousness. You lay aside the righteousness of God and the Gospel and cling to your own righteousness. You set up yourself to be your own savior in opposition to Christ. Human nature prefers anything to Faith in Jesus. 

Unregenerate human nature thinks JESUS was a good man, but not the Incarnate Creator; fleshly wisdom cavils at His sinless perfection; the worldling is happiest when he is impugning Christ's character; they utter railing words against His person, cause, and people; the spirit of this world denies and ridicules His claims and demands. You deny the deity of Christ, hate the central Gospel truth of His Perfect Atonement/Sinless Atoning Sacrifice for human sin; You rail at Justification by Faith alone in Christ alone, the very heart of the gospel; they question the words of the living God; they scoff at the infallible Holy Bible; they insult the truths and thoughts of God. 

It will be an awful, dreadful thing to die without the SAVIOUR. To die unforgiven, unsaved, undone, unregenerate is to face shame and everlasting contempt, unutterable woe will be an eternal nightmare for you. You have mocked Christ's cross, despised His gospel, scoffed His free grace, scorned His tender mercy, spurned His bleeding love. You continue to sin so wickedly against God. You have turned your back on Christ all of your life. No crime is equal to the rejection of the Lord Jesus Christ. You're an impenitent sinner, a mean contemptible wretch. A Christ rejecter is the meanest sinner that ever existed. The very devils and fiends of hell will mock you for all eternity. You will experience vile fiends' terrible laughter in the bottomless pit forever and ever. 

WHAT GOD DEMANDS

Do you know what the God of the HOLY BIBLE demands from YOU?  All that the God of heaven demands from you is a sinless man, that has met all the demands of His LAW. But the Bible says, "All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." So you must find some other way, because you have definitely sinned against God every day of your life. You're in a sure enough mess.

JEHOVAH GOD is Holy, Just, and Righteous, and all He wants from you is a perfect, sinless life. Isn't that reasonable? But you can't live a sinless life; you're in a real dilemma. If you want to get into Heaven one day, God demands that you must be absolutely PERFECT in His sight. No unclean thing shall ever enter heaven. The only Way this can be is that God offers you a sinless Man, His own Son, The Lord Jesus Christ. God says, "If you take My SON, I will take you." Have you taken JESUS as a Free Gift, that is, by Faith in His Blood received Him into your heart? Remember now, until your sin debt is settled with God through His Son's Precious Blood, nothing will ever be settled when it comes to You. If you want to go to Heaven, trust the SINLESS Man, Christ Jesus; if you want to go to Hell, trust something else, one thing is just as bad as another.

You can do nothing to merit God's Salvation through JESUS CHRIST. Christ Jesus kept the LAW perfectly, and only He fully satisfied the Law's severe demands and Divine Justice's terrible death penalty. The Precious Blood of an Innocent Victim died in your place to take away your Sins. (Hebrews 10:12; II Corinthians 5:21) If you take JESUS, He'll take you. How about it? Come to JESUS now, and receive Him personally, and know by first-hand experience that you are literally the sinner that JESUS died for on Calvary's Cross. Your sins demand eternal vengeance, but God's Blood demands pardon. Your case is absolutely Hopeless without Jesus Christ. When you die, the Blood of Christ will either be on your hands or on your Soul. Which will it be for you?

May the Holy Spirit make you conscious of your sinfulness, wickedness, emptiness, and make you fully aware that you're a sinner justly condemned already indeed, lost and destined for Hell, and deserve to go to the Lake of Fire forever, and receive the due reward of your deeds. (John 3:36) You are a Christ-rejecting, Sin-loving Rascal. There should be no doubt in your mind that you're guilty in the sight of God. If you ever come to Christ Jesus for His Salvation, you must abandon any claims to your own righteousness and plead Guilty as charged. Human nature tries its best to justify itself, but all your doings will come to nothing. Stop drinking the world's ditch water (alcohol), and eating out of the world's garbage cans (e.g., internet, cell phones, television, and the like). Stop wasting your life seeking the Living among the dead. Your conscience and good sense will tell you that you're guilty before God. 

JESUS was the Innocent Sufferer-Spotless Substitute Who was unjustly condemned in your place. This is the Gospel of Christ: A sinless Substitute (The Lamb of God without blemish and without spot) took your place, and died in your stead for your sins. God SO Loved you that He gave His only begotten Son to bear your sins, bleed and die for your sins, and rise from the dead the third day according to the Scriptures. God loved you enough to make a full provision and perfect Atonement for your sinful Soul. 

If you reject Christ, you inevitably will hit the Judgment unprepared, and you'll have to answer to God's perfect RIGHTEOUSNESS found only in Jesus Christ. God has appointed a Day when He will judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS by that MAN whom He hath ordained and raised from the dead. If you don't accept Christ's Righteousness as a Free Gift Now, you will be condemned by Christ's Perfect RIGHTEOUSNESS at the Judgment to come. If you turn down the Sinless Bloody Death of Jesus Christ for your sins, you'll be like a death-row inmate that turns down a free pardon from the Governor the night right before you are escorted to the death chamber. 

JESUS is only sinless Man that ever met all the exacting demands of God's LAW to pay the great price for your Sin Debt. Without shedding of Blood is no remission of sins. If you accept Christ as your Substitute Who all by Himself with His own life's blood met all the demands of the LAW, your Soul will be immediately delivered from the penalty and curse of the LAW.

And there shall in no wise enter into heaven any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: 

but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

When JESUS died and cried out, IT IS FINISHED!, He was bearing the sins of the world, including your personal sins, but JESUS Himself had never committed one sin in thought, word, or deed. Remember, you can never merit or deserve the Substitution of Christ Jesus, God manifest in the flesh. You'll never earn His RIGHTEOUSNESS. You had something to do with JESUS' bloody death; Your personal sins scourged Him, nailed Him, and killed Him.

Now don't forget: Do you know what God wants from You? A Sinless Man. God demands absolute sinless Perfection from you. Hold on, there's only one Sinless Man that ever lived on this Earth, the Man Christ Jesus, and He shed God's Blood for your sins. No religion, church, or sacrament can fix your Sin problem; You need a Living Person, the Sinless Man. 

I know why you are trying to evade Christ and putting Him off: you love your sins, you love this world, you love your fellow worldlings, you love your righteousness more than Jesus Christ. You want to hang on to some secret sin. If you die in your sins rejecting Christ, you as a sinner will die and face God unprepared when God made a perfect Way for you to escape Hell through a Sinless Man whose name is JESUS CHRIST. Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the Sin of the world. Lay hold on the Lamb of God through Faith in His Blood; Be ye reconciled to God by the death of His Sinless Son, and be saved by His perfect Life. If you take God's Son, God will freely give you His Son's RIGHTEOUSNESS, and your Soul will be fully and forever protected from the wrath and judgment to come. God says to you now, "If you take My SON, I will take you." The ball's in your court; Will you have JESUS, or not?
