Christ asks for our tithes only to offer the first fruits of those who sleep.  1 Corinthians 15:20-28

FIRST FRUITS In number small - God’s chosen men, doth storm the earth with words and pen. Strong tithe retells of glory reaped. Offered first fruits of those who sleep. We gather at the feast of weeks. A golden wheat, the foremost peaks. A symbol of the cross - not cheap. Offered first fruits of those who sleep. The wedding song of water, turned to vintage wine, thus blest, not earned. The one whose precious blood, sowed deep, offered first fruits of those who sleep. 8/7/2017 Kyrielle Form
