The Empire Strikes Back

An oxymoron declares the glory of the Lord
Our enemy thought he would win on that day
But 'Genesis' declared that our enemy would lose

Jesus died on the Cross
Jesus won on the Cross
The Cross is victorious
The empire strikes back!

The fall could not stop the Lord's purpose
The call for justice brought the glory of the Kingdom
The story of salvation declares the Power of the Blood of Jesus
Man can now be forgiven if he accepts the plan of salvation and
He can once again receive the Holy Spirit

The empire strikes back, and now man is on track
He can fulfill the Lord's purpose

Jesus died on the Cross
Jesus won on the Cross
The Cross is victorious
The empire strikes back!

Yes, Satan thought he had won, but he did not. He will get his reward at the very end. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara
