This Man Called Jesus - 2

THIS MAN CALLED JESUS - 2 Hey, Caiaphas! What do you think of this Man called Jesus Well, now that you mention it, I think it's time that He died Perhaps we can devise a plot to have Him crucified Let's talk to Pontius Pilate and see what he has to say I'll bet he will help us get rid of this aggravating Man But we must devise a real solid foolproof plan How about some false witnesses to tell a few lies Yes, that just might do it, so round up a few We can bribe them easily – they'll know what to do That sounds good enough to rid us of Him And one of His friends, Judas is his name Will betray Him for silver and take all the blame Why didn't we think to do this sooner I had thought of it, but I feared it wouldn't go well But I can't see any reason why this plan should fail So the plot was formed and soon carried out He was crucified, dead and buried, but arose after three days Ascended into Heaven, to come again and judge mankind’s ways Have you given any thought concerning eternal life You've been given a choice – what will your choice be It's either Heaven or hell for eternity What do you think of this Man called Jesus Will you accept Him as Lord and serve Him alone Or die in your sins before all hope is gone Curtis Moorman 19 January 2013

Thanks, Kim! This is the first thing I've written literally in a year or longer. I have missed my friends at Soup. I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and that 2013 will be one of the best years for you.

Thanks, Sara! Yes, Jesus is God come down to us. I love the choice of words from the familiar praise song we sing. Have a Blessed day!
