And Jesus said I love you this much and he stretched out his arms as wide as he could and died. Ten thousand angels were with him that day and at anytime could have took his pain away, forget the thorns, the nails, sticks and stones, broken bones, nothing man of man could hold the Lord to that cross, he was bound by love and nothing else, now do you believe in the power of love, Satan thought he won, he really believed he killed the son, made a deal with God, said how much do you want for these sinners, the Deviled replied you don't want them they will not appreciate it just let me kill after I have my fun, and the Lord replied, how much, and the devil thought long and hard and thought he was very clever and said OK you can have them, if I can kill you instead and the Lord with no hesitation said done. So he died so we would not but that is not the end of the story, because his love was so great he was redeemed and returned to glory, as long as there is love there is God, He has risen, he has won, yes he died, but he rose again, he has saved the world from sin, so just have faith and say Amen, Amen.

Roger, I think this is a powerful poem and worth at least five points, probably a lot more.
You may not get too many comments of this one, and I'll tell you why. It is because people would rather think of Jesus as the humble preacher standing on the hillside quoting the Beatitudes to the multitudes. They do no want to face that fact that He suffered terribly and died for their sins, or that they even have sins that would need dying for. But that is the reality. Christ did suffer and die, for you, for me, for everyone. But He did it because He loves us. Now it is up to us whether we accept what He has done, or try to sweep it under the carpet.
Good job!

What, no comments? I do believe it is because of the content of the poem, Roger. It's a shame, because this piece is so delicately written with a message. Quite a clichéd sentence, but true, nonetheless! You have to read this poem out loud to really feel the impact of the words. I have more to say, but no way to phrase it. When the words come, I shall comment again.
