Blog EntryWHEN I SAYJul 18, '06 2:03 AM
for everyone

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am trying to confess

Only Christ can be my Comfort

For in Him I've found sweet rest

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I'm only boasting in the blood

That was shed to pay my pardon

And accepted by my God

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am looking to the place

That brought redemption and salvation

To a fallen Human Race

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am speaking of a strength

That's within - to rule and guide me

Through a Divine experience

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am confessing that I've died

From all my self-willed ways and motives

Now joy and peace sweetly abide

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am saying of my soul

There is no fear of falling

God's the One who's in control

~*~*~*~*~

When I say - "I am a Christian"

I am saying to the world

I have overcoming power

Come and buy of Christ this gold

~*~*~*~*~

If you want to be a Christian

John 3:16 is the key

For whosoever will may come

Come! Drink! And be set free

Sis Jacinta, Your poem is very nice and inspirational. Many people nowadays can't make the stand that REAL Christians should make. May God continue to Bless you.

Thank God our anchor holds and grips the solid Rock (of Ages) Kizzie. He is our Absolute. Without Him we couldn't stand.
God's continual blessings my sis.

say on sis, say on, this will make us feel that we have a home far above all these princippalities and powers , mortal flesh and all sorts of earthly things, proves that we are no more earthen vessels.
Praise God

I am not sure I understand what you mean by saying, "we are no more earthen vessels." Please explain.
myabsolute wrote on Jul 27, '06
like Paul said its no longer i who lives but Christ who lives in me, we have been transformed into that glorious body of JESUS, no more walking in our own ways again having died to our own thoughts and behaviors,
Bless you

I know that we are earthen vessels with the greatest treasure ever within. This I speak of the Holy Spirit.
The prophet said, "He veils Hisself today in earthen vessels with the Shekinah. The outside looks like a bunch of holy-rollers, old badger skins. But the inside hides the Shekinah Glory" and might I say as well, without that Shekinah glory, our feast won't hold out. It just won't last. We'll be up today and down tomorrow like a see-saw.
What you said about it no longer being us but Christ who lives in us is true but it does not take away the fact that we are still earthen vessels. IICor. 4:7 God bless you. :-)

not at all, we are still the same, looking the same, humans but we have got hte differences inside,
God Bless,
Do you happen to have access to the song Rugged Road?
rainbowlights wrote on Jul 31, '06
I am not sure what you said "not at all" to but saying we have the differences inside is saying what I already said. So I am not sure if you are agreeing or diasgreeing with me. (We could be saying the same thing but in a different way)
I am not sure if I know the song by another name. Perhaps if you could type some of the lyrics I might be able to say if I have it.

i do agree with you sis, thats what i am trying to say.

the song
chosen to be a soldier
in this evil day
with 200 million devils in my way
but i have chosen to walk this path
because of hte lord in my heart
and though its a rugged way
i will bare alone

chorus
for its a rugged way
the way of Jesus
but its the only way
the way of the lord
i walk in this way
where God will lead me
till i walk into oyur power and authority

It's great knowing we are on the same side :-)
The words are beautiful. I'm sorry I don't know it. Who sang it?
myabsolute wrote on Aug 2, '06
thanks sis, the person who sang it has a voice like Bro Phillip Pierre's voice, i had a cd which had songs liek No weapon by Bro David Dayal and Bro Walker (Oba) , Just Let God (Sis Liz Bishop) and a few more songs like Stand, Go out like Elijah (Bro Rod Bergen)
rainbowlights wrote on Aug 2, '06

Oh right! Now I remember it. After reading over the words in the chorus I realized that I know the song but I don't have a personal copy of it.
