Christ vs Heresy
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
I want you to know how great,
A struggle I have for you;
That others would meet their fate,
Because they cannot construe.
You have seen not face to face,
That their hearts are comforted;
Knitted together in grace,
Knowing what God commanded.
Assured in understanding,
Knowledge of the mystery;
Through Christ what is demanding,
What God did through history.
All of the hidden treasures,
From the knowledge and wisdom;
Giving spiritual pleasures,
When entering His Kingdom.
I write so no one delude,
Beguiled with enticed news;
From whom has an attitude,
False arguments of their views.
In body I am absent,
Yet still with you in spirit;
A steadfast magnificent,
Through faith that you inherit.
