Christ is coming again to Jerusalem; coming again is God’s Only Son. <br />He came once to tiny Bethlehem, only later to be rejected by most men. <br />Christ came to redeem His Own, but they simply scoffed at His Throne. <br />Weighed down by blindness and sin, Christ’s own people crucified Him. <br /> <br />Christ was buried by those who knew, He was indeed King of the Jews. <br />Even Simeon waiting for Salvation, knew Jesus was Israel’s consolation. <br />But the Disciples were unsure, until that morning they saw The Lord, <br />For they remembered Christ said, in three days He’d rise from the dead. <br /> <br />For The Lord’s Gracious Sacrifice, was indeed friend, The Risen Christ. <br />He went from Mary’s blessed womb, to a cold and empty garden tomb. <br />But Christ was God well before, and Christ Shall be God forevermore, <br />For as Thomas said with a nod, Jesus Christ is Lord, and He is God. <br /> <br />For forty days many would see, The Risen Christ, for all to believe. <br />Soon Christ would again ascend, back up to His Father’s right hand. <br />And the Disciples were consoled by angels and what they were told, <br />The Lord that ascended that day would return again in a similar way. <br /> <br />But this time around my dear friend, from the sky Christ will descend, <br />And every eye will see Christ when, from the sky Jesus returns again. <br />Then Christ will begin to fulfill, His reign as King on His Holy Hill, <br />And everyone will know He is God, when they see His Awesome Rod. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©12/2004)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/christ-is-coming-again/
