Keep Going
We come to the second chapter of the book of Revelation. Now he says, “And has borne, and has patience, and for my name's sake has labored, and has not grown weary.” What does He mean? He said before that they had grown weary, and now He says they haven’t grown weary. Well, this is one of the great paradoxes of the Christian faith, and I think I can illustrate it by what Dwight L. Moody once said. When he came home after a campaign, he was worn out. His family begged him not to go to the next one, and he told them; he says: “I grow weary in the work, but not of the work.” And there’s a lot of difference. You can get weary in the work of Christ, but it’s tragic if you get weary of the work of Christ.

...Daily Promises...
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. (Psalm 1:3)
Lord, may I be firmly planted in Your word and truth! May I always find delight in Your face as I meditate on Your great lovingkindness! Yet I am so undeserving, You have allowed me to serve You. Truly, I stand in awe at your faithfulness and Your goodness!
...May I Have Your Attention?...
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. -- Isaiah 40:28
So don't have any doubts about things in your life today. Even if the world seems to be crumbling around you, God is still in control.

C. H. Spurgeon's Evening Reading (December 13th)
"I will make thy windows of agates." — Isaiah 54:12
The church is most instructively symbolized by a building erected by heavenly power, and designed by divine skill. Such a spiritual house must not be dark, for the Israelites had light in their dwellings; there must therefore be windows to let the light in and to allow the inhabitants to gaze abroad. These windows are precious as agates: the ways in which the church beholds her Lord and heaven, and spiritual truth in general, are to be had in the highest esteem. Agates are not the most transparent of gems, they are but semi-pellucid at the best:
"Our knowledge of that life is small,
Our eye of faith is dim."
Faith is one of these precious agate windows, but alas! it is often so misty and beclouded, that we see but darkly, and mistake much that we do see. Yet if we cannot gaze through windows of diamonds and know even as we are known, it is a glorious thing to behold the altogether lovely One, even though the glass be hazy as the agate. Experience is another of these dim but precious windows, yielding to us a subdued religious light, in which we see the sufferings of the Man of Sorrows, through our own afflictions. Our weak eyes could not endure windows of transparent glass to let in the Master's glory, but when they are dimmed with weeping, the beams of the Sun of Righteousness are tempered, and shine through the windows of agate with a soft radiance inexpressibly soothing to tempted souls. Sanctification, as it conforms us to our Lord, is another agate window. Only as we become heavenly can we comprehend heavenly things. The pure in heart see a pure God. Those who are like Jesus see Him as He is. Because we are so little like Him, the window is but agate; because we are somewhat like Him, it is agate. We thank God for what we have, and long for more. When shall we see God and Jesus, and heaven and truth, face to face?

C. H. Spurgeon's Morning Reading (December 14th)
"They go from strength to strength." — Psalm 84:7
They go from strength to strength. There are various renderings of these words, but all of them contain the idea of progress.
Our own good translation of the authorized version is enough for us this morning. "They go from strength to strength." That is, they grow stronger and stronger. Usually, if we are walking, we go from strength to weakness; we start fresh and in good order for our journey, but by-and-by the road is rough, and the sun is hot, we sit down by the wayside, and then again painfully pursue our weary way. But the Christian pilgrim having obtained fresh supplies of grace, is as vigorous after years of toilsome travel and struggle as when he first set out. He may not be quite so elate and buoyant, nor perhaps quite so hot and hasty in his zeal as he once was, but he is much stronger in all that constitutes real power, and travels, if more slowly, far more surely. Some gray-haired veterans have been as firm in their grasp of truth, and as zealous in diffusing it, as they were in their younger days; but, alas, it must be confessed it is often otherwise, for the love of many waxes cold and iniquity abounds, but this is their own sin and not the fault of the promise which still holds good: "The youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint." Fretful spirits sit down and trouble themselves about the future. "Alas!" say they, "we go from affliction to affliction." Very true, O thou of little faith, but then thou goest from strength to strength also. Thou shalt never find a bundle of affliction which has not bound up in the midst of it sufficient grace. God will give the strength of ripe manhood with the burden allotted to full-grown shoulders.

Jesus is only coming back one time. "The dead in Christ will rise first." The important people in the Old Testament went to "sleep with their fathers." Jesus said even King David was still in his grave. I believe in the timeline I was taught in church back 60 years ago. We die, and our souls sleep. At the Second Coming, we saved will rise and meet the living saved in the air and be taken to Heaven. I'm not clear on how long after that the unsaved dead stay dead or how long the unsaved living remain living. I think they will get theirs soon after we get our reward. Also, the Bible says we will be helped through the tribulation, so "pre-trib rapture" is off the table for me. This is how my church used to teach, but somehow it got turned around in recent decades.
Some people talk about so-and-so looking down from Heaven, which is total BS. The Bible says that we will remember nothing about our previous life. It also says there will be no tears in Heaven. This logically leads to the fact that we probably won't even know each other in Heaven. If I went to Heaven, and my mother wasn't there, it would certainly cause sadness. So I won't know who made it, or even remember anyone. That casts a strange light on life in Heaven.
There is also a New Testament verse that seems to say that those who died earlier won't have more time in Heaven, which would be another proof that the dead stay dead until the Second Coming.
I have been studying the Bible a long time. Actually next year will make 60 full years. Almost every tiny fact in the Bible has now been proven, either by archaeology, historical texts, or astronomy. The creation of life by God was proved by DNA, as information (as in DNA) is only created by a mind, never by a random process, and the only mind around before life would be God.
I haven't been online in a while, as things have been busy, both health and household stuff. Have you ever had almost all your major appliances, including water heater, quit nearly simultaneously? I'm about to replace the water heater, washer, and stove. I will be ending cancer treatments in January, as I'm all clear. I've had a lot of inflictions over the years, but I suppose that's a sign Satan is still trying to get me. That won't happen, so he should give up. I suppose he's hard-headed.
Added note: I have an extensive collection of music and other audio recordings. One oddity is a recording of Frank Sinatra doing a local radio advertisement. In the course of the jingle, he sings, "Epstein knocks me out." I cut out that piece so I can play it separately occasionally for fun. You can hear the full car commercial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3exwzskglfw The phrase is almost to the one minute mark, so listen for it.
" I will be ending cancer treatments in January, as I'm all clear. "
God is good.
May God bless you richly in the coming new year...
I hope this 250th anniversary of the US will be good year for everyone, except for the evil ones. I was broke and working at a convenience store on the day of the 200th in 1976. I am much better now, in spite of all the health problems of the past 10 or 15 years. I have lost a lot of weight in the past couple of years, so I feel a lot better. Perhaps next year, I can do a lot better physically.
I have started having unusual dreams lately. In one last week, Jesus was in it. I haven't told anyone about this dream. There were some women who seemed to be trying to start a church and were wondering how they would be able to get people to show up. Jesus said, "I'll be there." That's all He said in the dream. I wonder if it's a sign. I woke up from this dream about 2:00 AM. I usually don't remember that much about dreams.
" Perhaps next year, I can do a lot better physically."
Ecclesiastes 9:4
“For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.”
...I can personally attest to the certainty of this verse...
