the meaning of resurrection

A long time ago, our souls, fell into sin.

That lead us to, an eternal end.

It affected all mankind, even you and me,

When Adam and Eve, ate fruit from the tree.

Yes, God had forbidden them, they had no need.

But they listened to Satan, who was very crafty.

The tree of good and evil, God told them to stay away.

But they listened to Satan, who told them, you can have it your way.

They were given permission to eat from any other.

But they were tempted, maybe because of its beauty and color.

When they bit into it, all hell broke loose.

They then hid from God, a sign of sin, when they ran, they showed the proof.

Yes, they disobeyed Him!

Yes, God, their Father, their true friend.

Because of this sin, they were no longer in fellowship with Him.

This then included everyone, even you and me.

Because we all come from the seed of Adam and Eve.

But God loved us all so very much.

But, what He made from dust, He could no longer trust.

So He took Himself and became human form.

Then the Son of God, He was born.

Yes, God in the flesh, came to this earth.

Born through the vessel of Mary, He was birthed.

He became the human supernatural sacrifice.

He died for us all, so we could all have life.

Yes, all of us, even you and me.

But this time it's for eternity.

His death on the cross, was a vicious price to pay.

But the victory and blessing is, He rose on the third day!
