A Biblical Haiku

A Biblical Haiku

First came His Adam.
Then from Adam came His Eve.
Greatest Laws in share.

Love God first, the start.
Love another, the second.
Yourself, like the last. 

Pure in heart see God.
Peace makers are His children.
The right kingdom heirs.

Through Him, salvation.
Through faith, in love, we repent.
In Christ, we shall pass.

The meek, gain the earth.
The humble, gain His wisdom.
And mercy repaid.

No greater love is
from God to His creation,
there was ever made.

No Love is greater...
   than the Love from God.
No fool is greater...
   than the one who rebels against it.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your biblical thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
