Welcomed Relief

Man of Sorrows
Well acquainted with grief
Sinless and faultless
Yet condemned like a thief
Changed human history
Though His time on earth brief
Mends broken lives
From sin’s sting brings relief.

MT 2021

1Co 15:56  The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. 
1Co 15:57  But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Appearance

Some think the party is here and now,
We should live to the fullest down here,
While I think God gave us this world to enjoy,
Truest joy comes when Christ shall appear.

MT 2021

Col 3:1  If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.

Col 3:4  When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. 

Rest and Rely

While it may not be very popular,
And will cut to the heart as well,
I believe Christ died on a cross
To save us from sin, death and hell.
I also believe He rose from the grave,
And in glory now reigns on high,
That His word is eternal and absolute,
On these truths I can rest and rely.

MT – 2020

NKJV Act 2:37-38
[37] Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?” [38]  Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

Trinity Love

The High and Lofty,
Has set apart,
The humble in spirit,
And the contrite in heart,
And gives eternal salvation,
To those who bend their knee,
To the God of heaven,
Three in One, One in Three.

MT- 2020

NKJV Isa 57:15 

For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. 

A Theist

I am a theist
And make no apologies
I believe in Jesus Christ
Not man-made ideologies
Nor in man’s speculation
Nor his pop psychologies
For only Christ can cleanse the heart
Of sin and social pathologies.

MT 2020

Colossians 2:8 NKJV 

Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 

Cannot?

“I cannot believe in your God,”
The atheist brashly said.
But does he believe that in his heart,
Or only in his head?

“I cannot believe in anything,
Except what my eyes can see.”
But can an atheist explain this world,
How and why it came to be?

“I cannot believe in Jesus Christ,
That He rose up from the dead.”
But doesn’t he more truly mean,
I choose not to believe instead?

MT 2020

Ecclesiastes 3:11 NKJV
He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end. 

Glorious Restart

In my best state my life is a vapor,
Fragile like paper thin glass,
In my best state I’ll fade like a flower,
When the last breeze of life makes it’s pass,
But when this corruptible body,
Has felt the last beat of it’s heart,
My new body created in the likeness of Christ.
Will have a glorious, eternal restart!

MT 2020

Philippians 3:20-21  NKJV
20: For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21: who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.
