The Bible Poem

Have you ever tried to capture the breadth and depth of the Bible in just a few short paragraphs? Where would you begin? What doctrinal themes would you explore?

Tale of Jonah

Behold within the Bible of a story that it tells: a tale of how God works with man to prove and not compel. Take Jonah for example that on God all life depends. The Lord called him to go and preach that Nineveh repent, but Jonah disobeyed God’s Word and fled...

Scriptures: Sola

God cursed all man with pain of sinful flesh, so God could teach of sin’s dark consequence. God’s ways and thoughts transcend what man can know, and that’s why deep in Man a conscience glows.

Christ shed His blood for sins of every man to spare each soul the pain of one condemned. The Spirit proves that life confers relief, but man must first repent of unbelief …

Alone

Imagine all I know undone: No rising setting glowing sun; No starry skies, no midnight moon; No gentle breeze, no morning dew; No mountain highs, no valley lows; No winding river water flows; No giant trees, no grasses blown; No sandy dunes, no fluffy snow; No birds up to the skies abound; No schools of fishes swimming ’round; No horses running ‘cross the plains …

When reading, I encourage you to think about the roles and responsibilities that God has assigned to husbands and wives. Consider what it means to serve as a help meet. Consider what it means to serve as a leader. Consider how one’s spiritual state affects one’s ability to honor God and serve others.
