The Perfect Defense


Many think it's easier to believe
That God exists but I believe
That it's harder to believe
That God exists and that
It's easier to believe that He doesn't
Because then things don't have to make sense
But because God exists
And He is omnipotent, omniscient,
Omnipresent, infinitely wise, eternal;
He is sovereign, just, righteous, and holy;
Because He is perfect in every way
And at the same time, loving, gracious,
Merciful, and kind, then you would
Start to think, maybe I'm the one in the wrong
And we would feel afraid of the consequences
Of our behavior, of our wickedness,
Of our wretchedness, because now we know
That there is an absolute truth
And there is an absolute standard with which
Justice will be upheld by.

What then is the resolution to our case?
How then can we defend ourselves
To the all-knowing Creator God
Who has placed His law over all creation
And will uphold justice for He is upright?
What is our defense? Who will defend us?
This is the reason why He gave Jesus Christ
His Only Son to die for us
So that He can cancel our debts
And commute our death sentence.
That is the hope that we have, as Christians,
As believers and at the end of the day
That is the only thing we can hold on to
That is what we can put our faith in.
