FROM NEW YEAR'S DAY TO NEW YEAR'S EVE! Poem by Denis Martindale.
If we harken to the Scriptures, what prophecies unfold?
The Action Bible has pictures! The greatest story ever told!
A large print Bible makes things plain, like never seen before,
To say, You must be born again! Amazing grace, for sure!
It's great to sing How Great Thou Art! As many choirs do!
Or sing out loud, straight from the heart, to echo their thoughts, too.
The Saviour Jesus shed His Blood to prove He was God's Son!
Each new day comes, and we thank God, recalling what He's done!
That's why believers know Christ's Name without a trace of doubt,
And why can't they remain the same? God's grace is all about!
Their attitude is gratitude and ever shall remain.
Thanks to the future each has viewed, with Heaven still to gain!
While God is seated on His Throne, with Jesus at His side,
The Holy Spirit's love to own for us, the Saviour's Bride,
What Gospel truths will we still share because Christ paid the cost?
Evangelise, steadfast in prayer! Pray for lost souls still lost!
Amen, Amen and Amen! Yes! Prayer warriors unite!
Each new day is our chance to bless and make the future bright!
Here is a Bible in pictures as well as text so it is mainly for children and yet its beauty will inspire adults as well. I order these as donations to others including Christian ministries. This is no easy thing to do because we can get Holy Bibles for much less. We can get New Testaments as well. There are even New Testaments with the Book of Psalms and the Book of Proverbs.
I saw this graphic novel comic style version on Revelation Tv on Sky 581 and Freeview 281. It was only later I learned there is an updated expanded version with more pictures and stories. There is also an updated and expanded version of The Action Bible New Testament so I have bought and shared these, too.
THE SCRIPTURES IN PICTURES!
My first Bible cost two-and-six.
And how long ago that was.
My Bible had some coloured pics.
But not one that showed the Cross!
The decades passed until I bought
A New Testament as well.
A comic book, well done, I thought.
With some precious tales to tell!
Later still, I'm so glad to see,
There's The Action Bible, too.
With precious pictures and scenery,
So there's even more to view!
I'd like to get a hundred more,
And the Gospel still to share,
So other folks could then explore
Every revelation there!
Denis Martindale, for the 10th of January 2024.
The Gospel poem got shared on Revelation TV's
Prayer Time Live on Tuesday, the 16th of January 2024.
