If You Knew the Gift of God
JESUS COMES TO a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob’s well is there. Wearied as he was from His journey, Jesus is sitting beside the well when a woman from Samaria comes to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give me a drink” (John 4:5-7). Why would Jesus ask a complete stranger to serve him? Have we not been taught that the Son of Man came not…

The Gift
James F. Gauss
December 25, 2023
By nature, and by culture, we as Americans, like to give and receive gifts. We like to, if we can afford to, give gifts, not only at Christmas, our favorite time, but also on a person’s birthday, graduation, wedding and many other special occasions. We also like to receive gifts at those times too. We may even give or receive gifts for no particular reason at…

Everything is His!
Psalm 50:10-12.
For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.
If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.
Gods makes His claim to all that He has created in these verses. He not only owns the cattle on a thousand hills; He owns the…

Christ the Redeemer
Anyone who does not obey God cannot enter His rest. But can flesh and blood obey God? No! What then is the hope of man? Jesus Christ - the Lord our Redeemer is His name from everlasting.
No one can enter God's rest apart from the perfect and finished work of Christ. For "That which is born of the flesh is flesh." John. 3:6a. The natural man cannot see farther than the glittering cover that makes sin attractive and entices his heart to feed on ashes. But "that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." v.6b. The Spirit of the Lord gives us beauty for ashes, He anoints us with the oil of gladness, and clothes us with the garment of praise, “that [we] may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” Isaiah 61:3. The Spirit of the Lord sets us free from our slavery to sin, and brings us captive to Christ.

Jesus Came To Save; NOT Condemn! (John 3:16-18
Do you know there is a lot more to what is being quoted in John 3:16-19? Read and discover what hidden treasure lies within
Jesus came to save, NOT condemn (
There is a good chance that you have heard of John 3:16. It’s one of the most popularly quoted verse in the Bible. It’s one that many Christians have committed to memory. Do you know there is a lot more to what is being quoted? In fact, this popular verse is not the last one in that chapter. There are two more and a couple of important Scriptures before it.

After today’s entry, I am once again baffled by any adaptation that makes Renfield out to be some direct and obedient minion to Dracula’s whims. This guy literally breaks out the second he thinks his Lord and Master (read: Idealized Supernatural Benefactor He’s Decided Will Give Him Grisly Boons and Superpowers) is being ‘stolen’ from him and begins wailing on those he deems responsible...
...except those same guys are the ones hired specifically to carry out Dracula’s instructions of Transylvanian dirt box removal/delivery. The actual, if unwitting, minions getting paid to do his mysterious bidding. Considering Renfield’s mindset, it reads a lot less like ~protecting his Master~ and a lot more like--
Dracula, having a grand time: Well, that’s Miss Westenra taken care of, obstinate guardians notwithstanding. Oh, and here come my laborers for the earth moving! Lovely. What a productive few days this has been--
Renfield, Victorian era “Girlfriend” by Lady Avril Lavigne blasting in his head, attempting to murder the Count���s secondhand employees out of doing their job: DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH MY MAN OR HIS DIRT
Dracula, now t h i s close to having people turn up to snoop around Carfax to figure out what this guy’s problem is with the place/apologize to the homeowner and revealing his whole deal: 8)
All of which lends more weight to Renfield being less an outright Igor caricature being unduly influenced by the Count, and more like Dracula getting a taste of, How About That, Not So Fun Having a Fixated Aggro Stalker, Is It? medicine himself.
#to be clear this isn't meant as an insult to Renfield himself#he's obviously suffering his own issues with mental illness and little to nothing's being done about addressing it#beyond letting him eat bugs and birds and stuffing him in a straitjacket as a last resort#and just generally having him live out his life as-is under a magnifying glass#but at the same time we need to go back to Seward's admittedly theatrical read of Renfield's motives regarding the new Lord and Master bit#i.e.: He isn't after a savior as much as someone/something that will shower him with inhuman gifts and benefits#a feat he was already chasing with the mini turducken attempts and (after picking up some unknown hint from Dracula) human blood#he's not chasing salvation#he wants to be more/better than human and is experimenting with ways he thinks he can get there#and somehow he's mentally sensitive enough to pick up on Dracula's presence and potential#and is now literally throwing himself at the bastard trying to volunteer himself as a minion/acolyte/blood sugar baby#all while Dracula is likely weighing the options of letting him live in case of future usefulness#or just getting around to murdering him for making too much noise#and drawing the wrong kind of attention#r.m. renfield#dracula#dracula daily

Salvation by Faith in God
8 You were saved by faith in God, who treats us much better than we deserve. This is God's gift to you, and not anything you have done on your own. 9 It isn't something you have earned, so there is nothing you can brag about. 10 God planned for us to do good things and to live as he has always wanted us to live. This is why he sent Christ to make us what we are.

Worth, love, sacrifice
They said that, sometimes, we make sacrifices so that the ones we love don’t have to. It’s part of protecting them—part of protecting you. Taking on hard choices and going to dark places is an act of love. It’s a gift. So, please let me give you this gift, Callum. Stay safe, and stay in the light.

"Love Story with Zsasz" (good lort, sorry River, lmao)
Send “love story with ____” for my muse’s reaction on finding a romantic fanfiction about themselves paired with that character
@sanguine-salvation
"Goodness, there's really more under this thing? Maybe I should change my name, and splurge for a brand new look." But alright, who's the next 'lucky duck' to be sacrificed upon the Altar of Ship with another piece of her sanity?
...Viktor Zsasz.
Okay-... She can kind-of see why some heart-eyed Gotham shipper might want to pair the two of them up. They both like knives, they both like knifing things, they both probably dance and finger-paint a little in the bloody-red aftermath. Tale as old as time and all of that good jazz, what more could a super-fun relationship need?
But is the fic any good? Now that's the million dollar question... Though considering Wattpad was batting 0-2 in her tag right now, River's not sure how much lower the bar can even go at this point.
"Well, here goes nothing, I suppose." She muses with a soul-steeling sigh, tentatively clicking the title.
But in the end, to her absolute shock, it was-... Quite the good read. Amazing even, considering the competition raised against it. A multi-chapter cross-over set in the world of that crazy car movie her daughter wanted to watch, Mad Max: Fury Road. It had the knives and knifing, madness and blood by the bucketful of course, as she and Zsasz wrested control of some clan called The Buzzards from their former leader.
Two Warlords, tearing across the dusty desert dunes in rusted, spike-covered Hell-cars. Raising chaos and the group up from the muck, from crusty scavengers into the greatest and most fearsome faction the Wasteland had ever seen. Sure, there might've been one too many hot n' handsy make-out sessions over corpses, that were more tooth than tongue; and the whole part of them choosing to die together, in a Bond-esque explosion-death ending was a bit ill-fitting. But at this point, River's just happy to see that neither of them were insultingly woobified; it could've been so much worse.
Witness them, indeed.
River never backed-out of a website so fast, how quick she was to pull-up her text messages.
2:30am [Tally Apple]: Hey.
2:30am [Tally Apple]: Hey you! ᕕ༼⌐■-■༽ᕗ
2:31am [Tally Apple]: Sleep is for the weak lookit this now [LINK]
2:33am [Tally Apple]: Be my hypothetical apocalypse bestie, Y/Y? I'll let you sit shotgun sometimes. ( ͡° ε ͡°)♥
#sanguine-salvation#Long Post#River: 8T#River: “Welcome to the fanfic harem I guess Viktor! Here's ur gift basket or something.”#(YOOOO BUT THESE TWO COULD PROBABLY LEGIT TEAR SHET UP IN MAD MAX LAND???)#(MAYBE NOT SO MUCH TOTAL WARLORDS LIKE FANFIC WRITER-PERSON DID. BUT THEY'D EITHER BE ABSOLUTE BADASSES.)#(OR TOTALLY SINK INTO THEIR MURDER-VICES AND BECOME EVEN WORSE VERSIONS OF THEMSELVES IN THE ABSOLUTE CHAOS. 8'D;;;;)

"The Narrow Way"
I have indeed bestowed upon this generation a multitude of gifts, a great number of words, words of warning and unsurpassed wisdom, words of exaltation and correction, calling all in the earth to repent.
Lo, I have expounded many words of unending love, with great passion, revealing My Mercy which endures forever. Behold, I have proclaimed the way of salvation, time and time again, and He whose name is The Salvation of God! Yes, I have blown the trumpet and called forth My watchmen, I have struck the gates and rattled the doors, I have shaken the foundations of the earth! And still the people hold fast, clutching the pillars and shoring up the doors against Me!
Yet from the beginning I established the line,
A narrow way which I had placed in the
Midst of My people, Israel…
And in My mercy, I revealed The Way
In which My people should walk…
Behold, even now I have placed a
Plumb line in the midst of all people,
Setting all these crooked paths straight…
For I am The Lord, and I do not change.

“Mary was kind and just wanted to help them, everyone really. She never pushed for anyone to join Eden’s Gate, letting it be their choice which gave way to an influx of new members. She was the best of us…..and they killed her for it.”

Hi, I would love to share with you a poem I wrote today (11th May 2023). It's called ”Heaven's road”. In another post, I will share with you the Bible verses that I used while writing this poem. Enjoy the reading :)
Heaven's road
Walk in the righteousness with Almighty
Try, give it a chance — change your clothes into new garments
The garments that please God without any doubts
What does please God? Being obedient, having it in the heart of yours — forgiveness and love
That cannot be overcomed with the power of the Holy Spirit
Who constantly reminds us about the God Almighty's will
Do not judge so you won't be judged
Don't let yourself pay too much attention to your brothers' speck of sawdust
Instead, pay attention to the plank in your own eye
Then you will be able to help your brother with the issue he has
Ask the Lord to give you what you lack and you'll receive it
For He doesn't make the promises He doesn't keep
He said that if we ask, He will give it to us
He told us that if we seek, we will find it so don't have doubts
If we knock on the door, He will open them for you and me
All we need is faith as big as mustard seed to believe how Faithful He is
Be with God for if you're with our Creator you're not against Him
Be sure you not commit the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit
For whatever you do will be forgiven but not this one sin
Speaking against the Holy Spirit will stay as your sin for eternity
Listen to His words carefully and remember them
Don't let them be stolen from your mind by the enemy
Be just like the seed that fell on the good soil and produced a great crop
Be just like the sheep that knows the Good Shepherd's voice
Be obedient to the will of His and go wherever He wants you to go
Just trust Him that He will lead you to the Heaven's road
Ask Him for His grace to be born again in Christ
For He is the only One Who can give you that
Believe that He says Who He is and that every commandment of His is good
Leave everything at His Mighty Hands and say ”Lord, I surrender to You"
Put your faith and trust in Him for He knows what's needed the most for you
He will take care of everything, never leave nor forsake you
For He is the One that goes before you and always makes a way
Trust in Him and believe how the miracles unfold
Know that He's the Way, Truth and Life, He is the Lord of Lords
He deserves His throne for He's our King Who saved us from eternal punishment
For His Goodness, Peace and Love let's give Him praise
#God Almighty#Jesus Christ#Holy Spirit#Holy Trinity#Love#Faith#Love of God#Gifts of God#Salvation#Jesus my Savior#God my Rock#Holy Spirit my Guide#Holy Spirit my Teacher#I surrender to God#Our Good Shepherd#Heaven#Eternal life with the Holy Trinity#Eternal life with Holy Trinity#Jesus is the Truth#Jesus is the Way#Jesus is the only Answer#Jesus is my Savior#God is my Strength#Holy Spirit my Comfort#Jesus is the Life#God is my Light#God is my Refuge#Trust in the Lord of Lords#King of Kings#Praise the Almighty
