His Son-Book 3

~His Son~

Someone once asked a friend of mine
If she had an answer that would define
Where it is that Jesus came from
And how do we know he was Gods son

She asked if I could help her out
And erase all of this child’s doubt
Is there some way to show any proof
And shed new light upon the truth

I gave this question a lot of thought
Pondering all that we’ve been taught
When all of a sudden it came to me
I could explain this inquiry so easily

Since the beginning of mankind’s creation
We so often failed our tests of temptation
That God sent a special chosen son
To try and find out what was going on

But from the first day of his sons arrival
The population still expressed denial
He grew up trying to spread the word
Yet so many found his beliefs absurd

The believers began to be convicted
Soon all of his followers were evicted
And because we feared all his conceptions
They found him guilty of deceptions

He was beaten and nailed upon a cross
But his messages never did get lost
Because his wisdom did not go away
Some still believe in it faithfully today

So if it’s been said we’re all Gods kids
Then the answer to this question is
That if God is the father of everyone
Then Jesus too would have been his son
**********************************
A dear friend wrote me explaining she had received a letter from someone asking how she knew for a fact that Jesus was Gods son. 
She was not sure how to answer this question so she asked me if I could help her out. I created this poem the following day as my answer. No one knows what can only be trusted to faith and belief, for that depends solely on your mental state and how you've separated the illusion from the reality.
So how do we know Jesus was Gods son…
I hope this poem answers that question for you also. :-) 
God Bless and Best Wishes to YOU...Peace
