A
Discussion

There is
this subject on which you and I should converse,
I feel it's something we must get cleared up before this
world gets any worse.
The simple
truth is this world has simply gone to such a depth of
depravation,
that the only hope left is that of salvation.
It's right
there for one and all,
and the only thing one has to do to receive it is simply
on Jesus name to call.
You see
the price of sin is death never to the new world would we
enter in,
but out of his love for you and I our savior paid the
price for us to live with him.
The price
had to be paid by one totally free of sin,
and knowing of our unrighteousness God lovingly sent his
son our place to fill in.
We in no
way are worthy nor do we fully comprehend,
but that didn't matter to our Savior he took our place on
a cross and died that you and I would live in the end.
Now having
paid the full price of our sinful behavior,
Jesus could demand anything as payment for becoming
our Savior.
And what
you ask is that price I must pay,
so that I may go home with Jesus on resurrection day?
There is
no price at all it's absolutely free,
the payment was made purely out of love for you and me.
It's a
gift given out of unconditional love,
given to those of us down here from those above.
Just as in
our every day life you must physically take a gift
offered to you before it is your very own, the gift of
salvation must be claimed and accepted before your
name in the book of life is shown.
How in the
world can I believe in something that I cannot even see,
Is that the next question you want to ask of me?
Faith is
the answer it is another gift given from a loving Father
above,
and if you don't think you have enough ask him for more
he'll send it from above.
