Flawless


Flawless

 

Matthew 27:24 

24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising,

he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying,

“I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it.”

 

Innocence, a simple word ... we use it all the time

Mostly to hide intentions ... which were bad from the start

“The innocence of Christ”... I don’t understand at all

for to know Holiness and purity ... I lost during “The Fall”

 

To take a heart, that’s flawless and fill it up with sin

The only place where Holiness ... really dwelt within

To have a place so perfect ... He filled even with myself

and with sins of the world poured them all into hell

 

1 Corinthians 15:45 

45 And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”

The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

 

In His resurrection He lifted me up to a place beyond description

From the death that I deserved He destroyed through Salvation

He washed me into purity and introduced me to God His Father

So for me to be made whole again ... in an Eternity with our Father …
