The Only Way To God

Jesus Christ came to save His own
a people elected to inherit salvation
chosen by His father before eternity
revealed in God's plan of redemption

This salvation came from God's love
sent Jesus to pay the price of sin
there on Calvary's cross gave His life
our redemption Jesus died to win

This occurred over 2000 years ago
but God offers His mercy to sinners all
if they would repent of all their sins
and be truly obedient to His call

God originated this in eternity
for His great love for lost mankind
on the cross in Christ He died
there lost sinners true life they find

Here you have God's master plan
so man can escape God's awful wrath
run to the saviour for His mercy
He'll keep you safe to walk His path


(Hebrew 7:25; "He s able to save to the uttermost all those who come to God through him")  (KJV)

Very well said! Do you believe in pre-destiny? The Bible uses the word foreordained and so I wonder?

Thanks Thomas, glad you liked it, I do believe in predestination which is one of the 5 points of the reformers established in the times of Luther and Calvin. Trust you're having blessed day, Gordon
