Sealed

SEALED       ( Ephesians. 1:13, )
We are sealed with the Holy Spirit,
because of the blood Jesus wrought,
The Bible calls this seal an earnest
A down payment on redemption bought

Sealed until the day of redemption,
This down payment we'll never lose,
For God has promised us in His word,
We are His when Christ we will choose

We're sealed; a shrink-wrapped possession.
Nothing can break it or sever,
In Christ we are joint-heirs with Him,
and in God's family forever.

Thanks for comments. I also wrote one on 'The Basis of Salvation' which is my favourite as it was from an experience. Blessings, Vivien from Australia.
