Testify as a Disciple

Acts 10:40-43

Christ that God rose up on the third day,
Giving Him a manifest in order to convey;
Not to all people just of chosen witness,
With being blessed by His righteousness;
Who ate and drank with Him after He rose,
Honor with eternal life is what He bestows;
We are charged to preach unto the people,
To testify in the authority as a disciple;
That Christ has been ordained by our God,
Judging all living and dead of the flawed.
You do not have to see in order to believe,
Even though many think we try to deceive;
Christ has risen He did rise from the dead,
Not to condemn rather cleanse us instead;
All of the prophets witness Him for to bear,
Through His name in belief He will share;
Eternal life along with remission of sin,
For these gifts by merely believing within;
As well as admitting your guilt and shame,
Granting a privilege in staking your claim.
