The Corpse

Posted on by Marla
Seeing, you have no sight
Hearing, without in-site…
Speaking, makes no sense
Touching, but not feeling…
For there is no light!
Living as if you’re alive…
Corpse that has not died…
Drawn to His Holy side…
His blood, gives life!

Hebrews 9:14-15 The Passion Translation
14 Yet how much more will the sacred blood of the Messiah thoroughly cleanse our consciences! For by the power of the eternal Spirit he has offered himself to God as the perfect[a] Sacrifice that now frees[b] us from our dead works[c] to worship and serve the living God.
15 So Jesus is the One who has enacted a new covenant with a new relationship with God so that those who accept the invitation[d] will receive the eternal inheritance he has promised to his heirs. For he died to release us from the guilt of the violations committed under the first covenant.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
