Poetry

I am making it known to you,
Of the Gospel which I had told;
Not as a certain point of view,
Rather how the truth did unfold.

Facts on which your faith has been based,
And that you are saved by this Word;
Because of Christ being disgraced,
By those who thought it was absurd.

You have been saved by the Gospel,
If you hold on to the doctrine;
So spread it amongst the people,
With your spiritual discipline.

Christ died to take away your sin,
As the Scriptures had predicted;
So the salvation you can win.
Through the pain that was inflicted.

Jesus was placed inside a cave,
But back to life on the third day;
Which was done in order to save,
Each of us who willingly stray.

To the apostles He appeared,
And to five hundred believers;
Many that honored and revered,
Having the faith as receivers.

Like a miscarriage but was born,
I was given birth into life;
So in this place I will sojourn,
Amongst the heathens who cause strife.

Never call me an apostle,
For I am not fit to be one;
I did nothing that colossal,
I only ridiculed the Son.

Because of the kindness of God,
He has made me to what I am;
So I will now honor and laud,
Paying homage unto the Lamb.

Whether then if them or me,
This is the message brought to you;
That will allow your eyes to see,
And in your mind as to construe.
