In the beginning the Lord had a plan.
He had the creation of the world in His hands.
So in His image from the dust He created Adam the
man.
From the rib of the man gave him a help meet Eve the woman.
Over the earth He gave them the rule, and the garden to tend.
But one mistake in judgement condemned us all to sin.
In the midst of the garden was a great tree.
The Lord gave them instructions to let it be.
For it was the tree of life and held the key.
Along slithered satan on his belly a snake.
To trick and decieve the woman into the error she did make.
Told her if you take a bite you won't surely die.
But be blessed with the wisdom of God on high.
Eve took a bite of the apple, and gave to Adam who also fortook.
Immediately their eyes were open and they took a look.
Seeing their nakeness and wrong, they ran and hid.
Fearing the wrath of God for what they did.
Adam said Lord it was that woman you gave.
The excuse did not wash, and to sin we became slaves.
One bite of the apple caused sin to be.
Condemned the world to sin, you and me.
Satan the tempter, shackled and bounded us, and slithered away with the key.
The world was left in bad shape, because Adam and Eve took the bait.
We were in trouble, facing a hellish fate.
Enter our Saviour, King Jesus from above.
Sent by the Father, Because of His great love.
He willingly went to die on thhe tree at Calvary.
To unshackle us and set us free.
He actually went thru hell to bring back the key.
That He could offer it back to you and me.
He got up and left the grave on the third day.
Got up with key in hand, and pushed death away.
That people asked shall we continue in sin that grace may abound.
But Jesus had conquered sin and the key was found.
So repent everyone for the remission of sin.
Be baptized in His name, and let His Holy Spirit in.
Jesus laid down His life, and paid the price.
We should now follow after Him, and walk in His light.
He's offering us Salvation, He's offering us the key.
Said you can't come to the Father except you come by me.
But by no means is Salvation free.
It's freely given, but to recieve it takes some Holy living.

God can turn you into pure gold, and as of this moment you can't say you haven't been told. Amen
