Has He Said It Shall He Not Do It

has He said it
                shall He not do it

teaching on the mount
the old
      explained in the new
five books,prophecy&
                               writings
until the teaching
                       of John
all the prophets
                     have spoken
information
         concerning Him

truth
    for His people
                     to have
foretold &forthtold
to bring
          the kingdom in
revealing our Lord

has He said it
                shall He not do it

a way to prepare
    ministering for the present
declaring
           the future
the will of God
                   a realisation fulfilled
flowering in Jesus

adjusting
     our understanding
seeing
            the beautiful word
in wholesome
            divine revelation

has He said it
                shall He not do it


the imperishable word
the cross
              explained
                             by sacrifice
         obedience
in practice&
                     principle
of what is right
with God
           contrast sayings
of character
of transformed emotions
pledged fidelity genorosity
of spirit
      inner god-likeness
outwardly displayed

has He said it
                shall He not do it

serious&superficial
a present day
                     relevance
under
      the teaching of Christ
past abrogated
             prohibition gone
integrity
     of principle
                   remains abiding
transcending culture
    modified by revelation
because of the angels
truth
 for His people

has He said it
                shall He not do it
