H A R P,  H A R P,  and. H A R P. some  more !

 Why do I Harp?     Cuz it's  the only  thing  I know to do in order to get
the concept  of Knowing Christ On a Personal Basis across to folks.
It is the SECOND STEP to the Evangelical  Invitation to come forward
 to accept Christ as Your Savior.  Without  Him  Knowing You on a
Personal and One to One basis, He will NOT, I repeat, NOT acknowledge
you in front of HIS FATHER when HE asks HIS SON, do you KNOW
this guy?(or gal)  If HE DOES NOT KNOW YOU, you are DOOMED!
HE said this HIMSELF!  No matter what you have done in HIS NAME!
It WON'T COUNT!  Nothing, zip, nada, it won't qualify you for everlasting
life with HIM in Heaven.  Oh, you'll have everlasting life alright, but you
won't like it and will be dreadfully sorry that you will be living forever.
      The absolute SHOCK of being told that all of the "good things" you
were doing while on Earth don't amount to a hill of beans, let alone be
"Good Enough" to please HIM and therefore gain Entry, will be over-
 whelming to say the least.  HE describes people's reaction to this
condemnation in HIS WORD and HE sounds angry about it.  You didn't
COME TO HIM when HE ASKED you to!  Why would anyone take a
chance on not being ABSOLUTELY SURE of your relationship with
HIM when the consequences of NOT KNOWING HIM will be so High?
Those that have a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP with HIM don't mind
hearing it touted over and over, because they have the JOY of it and it
sustains them while they wait.  HE is WITH THEM and they are at peace.
They FEEL HIS LOVE for them unceasingly and they smile.  They can't
help it!  It is HIM they have, they need nothing else!  What about you?
Do you HAVE HIM in your life?  HE WANTS TO BE WITH YOU!
HE SAID SO!  If your not sure, seek HIM with every fiber of your being.
Nothing else matters, nothing!  When you gain HIM,  everything else falls
into place, .......HIS  PLACE !   And HE has promised that HIS PLACE
will continue FOREVER for those that are KNOWN TO HIM as they
are HIS BROTHERS and SISTERS  that have been GIVEN to HIM by
HIS FATHER as GIFTS for HIS indescribable ACT OF LOVE on the
CROSS.  Are YOU one of these? Or are you just going about your life
with the understanding that GOD "knows you are a good person" and
you are a "faithful" church goer who wouldn't hurt a flea?  What CHRIST
wants of us HE CLEARLY STATES in SCRIPTURE.  Do YOU LOVE
HIM?  Enough to get to KNOW HIM PERSONALLY and be S U R E !!
that HE KNOWS YOU? The "Key" is HIS VOICE,  do YOU HEAR IT??

              MARANATHA!
                                                                
                    TH

PS.   Step 1:  Baptism- this is being born of water( a public statement of choosing HIM)
           Step 2:  Born of Blood- accepting HIS BLOOD as your own. (a conformation of
                             adoption into HIS FAMILY) This is confirmed by HIS SPEAKING to you.
            Step 3:  FIRE! !  This is to TEST your sincerity and commitment.  As you"pass"
                              these TESTS your FAITH grows into whatHE wants you be so you can
                               be of SOME USE to HIM in your SERVICE to HIM.

         Who among us would NOT want this in  our relationship with HIM?
          Those NOT SEEKING HIS VOICE.......that's who!
