Poem
He was with God before the world came to be, and He created with Him our breath-taking Universe; His name was Jesus,the Redeemer of the Human Race: and to change and save us was His destiny... He preached in the Temple, and all Jerusalem listened carefully, but some didn't like to hear how He spoke against evil so openly; and they weren't the Romans,the conquerors, but those hypocrites in high places... Jesus drew huge crowds by lakes and mountains, by the country roads and in small towns; they all came to hear the Gospel with gladness, and Joseph was one of the priests who heeded those words... On the lake of Genesaret, Jesus performed another miracle, telling Peter to lower the net for a catch, but he was skeptical: until he saw the boat was about to sink with the heavy load, and he came to realize the bounty of God... As Jesus became popular and all heard Him preach, the priests and scribes became jealous of Him, and planned to capture Him and found Him guilty of blasphemy: by the very hands of Pontius Pilate who feared to condemn Him... But the crowd cried out, " Release Barabbas! ", and those who called out the name, "Jesus,Jesus! " were beaten and silenced by a mob who had no mercy; Pontius Pilate had no choice but to deny His liberty... The Roman soldiers grabbed Jesus and took Him to governor's place, and they stripped and whipped Him 'till he bled; and worst of all : a crown of thorns they put on His head... Along the Via Dolorosa Jesus carried the cross to His death as the women wept and men mocked Him with laughs, never a commotion,so great, was felt in all Jerusalem; a follower gave Him water, but he was restrained by swords... The merciless soldiers placed the cross upon Jesus's shoulders, and Simon from Cyrene finished bearing it behind Jesus; he really felt the same pain and agony; and from Jesus's smile, he knew He was relieved... From the cross at Golgotha, Jesus asked His father to forgive them as John stood by his mother; to one of the evildoers He promised Paradise at no cost: and to all who would believe and follow: redemption by the cross....
