A Given Name

Date:

He was in the form of God,
As well as being equal;
Was made man but is not flawed,
Not considered a sequel.

He did not take advantage,
Of having equality;
But became a heritage,
By building in equality.

He emptied Himself to take,
On the form as a servant;
Humbled Himself for your sake,
For the upcoming event.

Becoming like a human,
And having the appearance;
The Pharisee had a plan,
For causing interference.

He was humbled until death,
When He had suffered a loss;
Forgiving on His last breath,
When He had died on the cross.

This is why God has given,
Him a prodigious honor;
Giving us a path to Heaven,
Although they are a fawner.

The name above of all names,
So that at the name of Christ;
For anyone who proclaims,
Is glad to be sacrificed.

Everyone in Heaven,
And that has been here on earth;
As well as those with Satan,
Will kneel knowing His worth.

They will confess He is Lord,
As glory to the Father;
And it cannot be ignored,
A theist is His Brother.

Those who have always obeyed,
Even more now than ever;
No longer to be dismayed,
From love that will not sever.

Work out salvation with fear,
It is God producing in you;
Desires to be sincere,
Pleasing Him as to be true.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
