The Perfect Man
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

        THE PERFECT MAN

Adam; through sin had caused a storm         Gen.2:17-18

His grief would see no end

So God chose Christ a human form

To which He would descend

 

A virgin bride was found on earth                 Mt.1:18

Untouched, her robe of white                         Lk.1:27

Of flesh, God’s Son was given birth              Mt.1:23

Conceived in Truth & Light                           Jn.1:9

 

The Son of man grew straight and tall

Full righteousness inside                              Mt.1:23

To bring about the devil’s fall                      Gen.3:15

And be man’s perfect guide

 

Upon the cross, to death ordained               Nu.21:8+Jn.3:14

The curse of man He’d take                        Dt.21:23

Festooned in guilt till life was drained       Jn.1:29

In glory to awake                                        Ac.3:13

 

God’s Spirit left Him on the tree                Mt.27:46+Jn.19:10

A shameful man alone

So sinful man can now be free                   Gal.5;1

Through sinless flesh and bone

 

God said. ”You’ve now become my Son    Ac.13:33+Heb.1:5

My will; have You obeyed                          Php.2:8

The work O God, You’ve now begun        1Cor.3:11

Will grow and never fade”                        1Cor.3:10

 

On Heaven’s throne the perfect man        Heb.12:2

Sits at His Father’s side                             Ps.110:1

So those within His righteous plan           Mt.19:29

May rise to be His bride                            Rev.19:7

 

But first to self; we too must die               1Cor.15:31

All sinful lust yet kill                                 Ro.8:13

Before we join The King on high

So was and is God’s will.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
