….i have an urge to write these words today, i thank you so very much for reading, ………with love from Sylvia….
The Bible? Of course, i read it, but not every day,
seriously, not as a research book,
but as The Holy Scriptures, my basis for my faith and to pray.
It has the Old and the New Testament,
i’m oft inspired by the Word of God in every segment.
Authoritative, in faith i hold the Bible,
to be inerrant in the originals God-breathed, infallible.
i assure you to read it, bit by bit,
for your faith and practice, please read the complete hit,
and final authority, perfectly guided by the Holy Spirit.
i believe in the only God, He is the Creator of all,
He is also known as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
revealed by God Himself, as ONE in being, in essence, and glory.
God is the One and Only Almighty, omnipresent, omnipotent He,
and unchanging. He is holy, just and righteous,
He is love, merciful, good and gracious.
i believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ,
the expressed image of the Father is grandest.
Who was born to become an ordinary man,
in order that He could tell us who God really is,
and provide the means of salvation for humanity and all the bliss.
Jesus Christ of the Holy Spirit’s conception,
and, born of the Virgin Mary, only she, without a man,
Jesus is truly God, and fully man, without a sin,
His birth occurred only by His Mother, still a virgin.
He lived a perfect, sinless life, His teachings are all true.
Jesus Christ died on the cross just for me and for all of you,
He died for all humanity as a substitutionary sacrifice,
we hold that His death is sufficient to provide salvation, the price,
for all who receive Him as their Saviour.
That our justification is grounded in His blood shed,
that it is attested by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead.
Jesus Christ ascended to Heaven in His glorified body,
He is now seated at the right hand of God, as our High Priest and Advocate,
i believe in the divinity and personality of the Holy Spirit,
He regenerates sinners, and He indwells believers.
He is the agent by whom Christ baptizes all believers into His body,
He is the seal by whom the Father guarantees the salvation of believers
unto the day of redemption.
He is the Divine Teacher who illumines
believers’ hearts and honest minds,
as they study the Word of God,
each on their own relaxing spot.
The Holy Spirit is ultimately sovereign,
in the distribution of spiritual gifts to the obedient man.
The miraculous gifts of the Spirit, as they were known
in those times in ancient Efeze,
while by no means outside of the Spirit’s ability to empower,
no longer function to the same degrees,
they did in the early development of the church in Efeze.
The reality and personality of angels do exist,
God created the angels to be His servants and messengers.
i believe every word i have read in the Bible and its translations,
thus also in the existence and personality of the devil and its demons,
this devil’s name is Satan is the heaviest enemy God ever met,
as evil rebellions against His Almighty power, too sad,
i read this in the Bible in Isaiah 14: 12-17 and in Ezekiel 28: 12-15 at my spot,
he is the great enemy of God and man, condemned by the Lord,
he and his evil company were sent away for good from the holy place,
i read this in the Bible in Matthew, and in Revelations, i reckon,
my belief, based upon reading, deep thinking and my greatest Faith in God,
that we can defeat these evilish appearances right on the spot.
By praying and asking for more strength in our belief,
so that we can conquer and be freed from this devilish thief! !
All these words were ranting me to jump out of my mind,
but i took paper and pencil to hasten the posting like this kind….
Then, my dear Poetfreak friends, and today my HePo friends
i bow to you all, humbly and with great honesty, i say the deepest Amen….
