Song of Salvation: A Poem about Incarnation

The following poem I penned December 24, 1991 as I was contemplating our Lord's descent.  I share it with you.  It's entitled, "Song of Salvation."

I've got a song in my heart for Christmas
    It's all about Bethlehem
The manger scene in the city
    Eternal God born man

My heart bursts with joy and wonder
    At that magnificus event
When our Father, with sinners in mind
    Decreed His Son be sent

Yet with no reluctance whatever
    The Word said "Father, I'll go;
To become a man a humbling thing,
    But no other way, We know."

Such in mind, our Savior
    Blessed sinners such indeed
Though beautiful Babe in Bethlehem
    At Calvary He must bleed

That's why I've a song in my heart at Christmas
    A song for a Divine Baby
In Bethlehem of Judea
    He sang His song for me

With that, I am...

Peter

Peter,

Good.

But being the dog that never leaves a track, I ask afresh.

Do you believe Jesus is the virgin conceived and virgin born child we worship as the God-Man-Son of God-Son of Mary with no human father biologically involved?

You never have answered that question as I have ask of you before and you avoided it will you do so, again, now or will you simply say yes or will you say no?

I too have worked with believers of other groups. I will be preaching for Nazarenes, in the spring, in the north, during a conference. The Nazarenes and others I have worked with have no trouble answering that particular question and thus far all answer yes.

Are you related to the past William Lumpkin of VA?

What say you, Peter?

cb scott: It's hard to believe Peter has not answered that question. Nor would I ever be able to believe he would avoid answering it. Where did he skip over that? Just wondering. I truly believe that Jesus was God's only begotten of the Holy Spirit to a virgin with absolutely no help from a biological male. Ain't that what the Bible says? selahV
