The Purpose of Jesus


John 1:10-13

God was in the world and was made by Him,
But the world knew Him not remaining grim;
He came on His own unto the human race,
But did not receive Him in seeing His face;
But whoever received, He gave them power,
Becoming as sons of God that very hour;
Whoever believes in His name, life eternal,
For blessings and grace showering supernal;
Reborn not of blood or of the will of skin,
Rather of the will of God and free from sin.
God sent His Son for those no longer knew,
The power of His creation on its real value;
Rejecting Jesus as for what He truly was,
With coming to such a place for what cause;
Of His preaching to try to set it straight,
Using of parables as a method to illustrate;
Ones in authority want to wash their hands,
With anything doing on making reprimands;
Unknown by striking down to grow stronger,
And in being a slave to any sin no longer.
