The Spirit of Christ
Those who are believers,
Will be the receivers;
And God cannot condemn,
With Jesus Christ in them.
Standards of the Spirit,
Are more than on merit;
But set you free within,
From those of death and sin.
Impossible to do,
With every day through;
As the standard demands,
The way how God commands.
Human nature is weak,
In pleasures it will seek;
But God had sent His Son,
For getting the job done.
Being sent in human form,
So His Son had the norm;
As sinners have to pay,
When they might go astray.
That way God condemned sin,
Corrupt nature within;
Rather spiritual nature,
To be a new creature.
But the corrupt nature,
Be not a new creature;
For the attitude,
Is arrogant and rude.
So live by the Spirit,
And you will inherit;
Leading to life and peace,
For aggression to cease.
