I heard about a man named Jesus who was an outlaw don't you see? He said I'll give you eternal life if you just believe in me. As He went around the city He was healing the sick and blind the Pharisees couldn't catch Him so they said it was a crime. Now this man claims to be the Son of God in Heaven above why that's blasphemy brother Sadducee! Let's rebuke Him in brotherly love. Well, we've got you now you King of Jews hanging up on that tree, you went around breaking all our laws now lets see you get free. The third day was now approaching and my God! He's disappeared! Now hurry and go tell the King about the awful thing we feared. This man named Jesus is the King just as He always claimed we've crucified an innocent man and Yeshua is His name. I met a man named Jesus who was an outlaw don't you see He's broken all the laws of sin and set us eternally free! ------------------ ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

What a cool poem!! I was reading this book the other day that discussed the exact issue of Jesus being an outlaw - definately agree on the advantage point here - Jesus may have broken all the laws but he set us free. Amen. Another awesome poem from an awesome poet! |

You have made an excellent point with this poem and the title will draw both the saved and the unsaved to read. This was a very good idea you had. I agree with your point of view. He broke all of man's laws but did not break one of God's. He full-filled the law of Love for us. Shine a light and darkness disappears. |

mirjam...may I choose to disagree with the lat thing you wrote? =o) Severn...Thank you kindly! Maddad...I hoped and do hope that the title of this poem would draw people in on curiosity of what I was talking about, as in believers either wondering if I was crazy or knew what I meant, and non-believers to come in because they think they might agree with the title (only in a different way). I am glad you liked it *and everyone else who replied as well*) ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone.

So very clever don't you think, that Echo with one clever wink, turned the man who made the law, into what He is, and what He saw. Although a repost, Echo, I'd say you have some good timing. Thank you so very much for sharing. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

AMEN! In this case, what else can be said? All glory to Him for giving us our gifts! What a privilege to be His child! I am a Life Purpose Coach who specializes in assisting men and women to clarify their Life Purpose and then in turn live true to their purpose. After 5 years working with the Severely Mentally Ill in County Mental Health, I gave up the bureaucracy (and safe, secure blanket) of this environment to pursue my own purpose and passion. |
