Baptismal effects

Immersed in His Paschal Mystery our Original Sin is --history! Divine Power comes forth from His Heart Giving sanctification a start Now alive in Christ, but dead to sin 'cause death no longer has dominion! [References: Romans 6, Colossians 2, CCC 1116, What We Believe: the Beauty of the Catholic Faith (Ch. 11), and the Divine Mercy Image.]

Deeply meaningful words woven here, “our original sin is history” that stood out for me the most and i love the flow of your lines! Well articulated in a soul stirring manner. Pleasure reading this. Sending you light :)

Thanks, Ink Impress. :D (I edited a syllables typo and changed the Heart part to Present tense, btw). Thank you, I accept the light you send. :) ...Psalms 36:9-- For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light. Amen.
