Pharisees and Sadducees

 How funny, those flawed ones deemed The Perfect, a liar, accusing Him day and night.  My Lord, flawless, pure, from heaven's fire. With the Father ere the world's inception, Creator of all, despised by His creation. Trees formed on the third day, From thee, timber hewn for the cross's pain. Slain by those He lovingly made, Imperfect ones against the Perfect laid. I am weak, yet He stands strong, In doubt, His faithfulness prolongs. Lust, anger, pride within my soul reside, Love, grace, humility His heart does provide. My life He took, His life He gave, They called Him flawed, a label so grave. Perfection entered this imperfect sphere, His blood, redemption's price so clear. How foolish to doubt His wondrous might, Claiming Beelzebub fueled His healing light. His holy testimony, rejected with disdain, Eternal life's offer, dismissed in vain. Blinded they are, too far to truly see, Sad souls unaware of His majesty. But I shall rejoice in my God's salvation, Danci

THE PRINCE OF PEACE - A Poem of God's Presence

Image
  Sleep, Lord, for in your peace we shall find solace, Rest, great King, for soon we'll know your grace. All is tranquil now, but moments hence, Our ship shall be tested by Tempest's presence.   Arise, O Prince of Peace, when darkness looms, Strange voices shall invade like nocturnal gloom. Yet in your serenity, our peace remains, So slumber, Lord, as turmoil wanes.   Slumber, and lead us to tranquil repose, Awake, and unleash peace that storms oppose. Bid them hush and heed the voice divine, For we shall marvel at the power that is thine.   What manner of man is this, we'll soon proclaim, The winds and tempests yield to his acclaim. So sleep, O Lord, your rest we implore, As we witness the truth and fear no more.   As I gaze upon the raging storm's plight, I hear the wind, standing in your holy light. Assured, I know your existence is real, For your sacred daydream, the Father's love reveal.   In your ethereal rever

TRUE DESIRES

What Eve truly desired was to become like God and the tree that could grant her that was the Tree of Life (which represents Jesus). Remember there were two trees in the middle of the garden in Genesis 2:9.  Jesus declared, "I am the way, the truth, and the life in John 14:6." He embodied the life that Eve longed for because to be like God is to possess the life of His Son. Thus, Jesus was Eve's genuine desire. Similarly, David's true desire was the beauty of God's holiness and not the nakedness of Bathsheba (Psalm 27:4). The express image of God's person is Jesus (Hebrews 1:3). Thus, Jesus was David's genuine desire. Therefore, it is not the strong man with attractive muscles and a chiseled physique that I desire; rather, it is the one known as Faithful and True, the strongest man riding a heavenly horse. He is referred to as the Living Word of God. It is not the beautiful and tender woman, captivating and gentle to my touch with mesmerizing eyes, in w

THE LAST ADAM

Image
As the Last Adam, the symbol of love and salvation, approached me, a wave of euphoria and excitement washed over my being. He gently grasped my hand and led me towards the Tree of Life, nestled in the heart of the garden. With grace, he plucked a fruit from the tree and beckoned me to partake. Without hesitation, fuelled by unwavering faith, I accepted the fruit from his hands and consumed it. Before taking my first bite, I examined the fruit closely, and to my astonishment, I discovered the words of John 3:16 intricately inscribed upon it. As the nourishment passed through me, my eyes were opened, and I beheld a radiant light enveloping me, akin to a majestic robe. Simultaneously, I noticed that the Last Adam was adorned in the same resplendent attire. Suddenly, a reverberation resonated throughout the garden, signifying the presence of God. He (God) beheld me and questioned, "Why did you not hide yourself from my presence, as many men often do?" In response, I humbly confes

Resurrection – the proof of the greater nature.

God Almighty, the creator, is holy, righteous, pure, wise, and beyond our imagination in every good way. When rebellion entered creation, everything contrary to the nature of the creator emerged. Everything created could align with the creator or deviate into perversity. It is no surprise that after God created man, He placed two trees in the middle of the garden (Genesis 2:9). One tree represented God's nature, while the other represented the contrary nature. God warned man not to partake of the contrary nature, or else he would experience death. This contrary nature is known as sin, and sin leads to death (Genesis 2:6, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:19). To demonstrate the sovereignty of His holy nature over sin, God sent His Son as a Lamb to take away the contrary nature, sin (John 1:29). On the Cross, Jesus performed a great exchange between Himself and the world. He became the embodiment of the sin of the world, as God placed all sins upon Him. It was declared that those who believe in
