Thank you
Christ Jesus
For revealing
God to us
Through
The body
He gave you
May we all
Do the same
St. Luke 3:22
“And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him…”
Body of Christ
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting for the Word

Godhead
I Corinth 11:13
“But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.”
The woman
Has three heads
Her husband
Christ
And God
And these three
Are one
Chosen Generation
The fall in the garden
Gave rise to a savior
And the fall of the savior
Gave rise
To the Spirit
To a body of people
Who at one time
Were not
But now are
The generation
Of Jesus Christ
I Peter 2:9-10
“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people…which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God…”
Church of Christ
There is Christ
And his church
His wife
Who is his cross
His body
His kingdom
He is hers
And she is his
They belong
To each other
For they are
Each other
Intertwined
Inseparable
They represent
The two
In one flesh
Ephesians 5:31-32
“…and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery; but I speak concerning Christ and the church.”
Second Coming
When Jesus Christ
Rose from the dead
He took his body with him
So when he appears
A second time
His body
Who is his Spirit
Will appear with him
For they are one
Where he is I am
He is risen
Colossians 3:4
“When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall you also appear with him in glory.”
Body of Christ
We spin yarns
Tell tales
Weave tapestries
We create stories
With words
And pictures
We give form
To the formless
This earth is the
House of the Spirit
As our body is the
House of the soul
Our body
Is to be used
To glorify Christ
Not to crucify him
Again and again
Holy Spirit
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting on the Word
There is a place
Beyond the mind
But you must
Overcome the mind
To get to it
This is the Spirit
The mind can
Think and reason
But it cannot know
Jesus Christ
And he who sent him
But the Spirit can know
She is the body of Christ
His wife
And these two are one
St. John 17:3
“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”
Family Tree
The Bible is our family tree
The word of God
We all came from the two
In the beginning
And these two were one flesh
We are all related
By blood
The blood of Christ
We are the blood of Christ
His body
His family
His heart
His love
His soul
His glory
We are here
For a family reunion
Holy
Christ did not forget
Where he came from
And has remained
Faithful and true
To those who are his—
The holy ones
True to the Holy Spirit
What holds true for Christ
Holds true for the Holy Spirit
They have the same vision
They see the same thing
We are made holy
By his death
Therefore if I am
Other than holy
He died in vain
Hebrews 10:10
“By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”
Rev 22:11
“…and he that is holy, let him be holy still.”
Body of Christ
This body is the veil
That covers the spirit
It is this body
That allows us
To communicate
The Word of God, the truth
It is this body
That the spirit joins with
To be free
We forget we are a spirit
And think we are this body
But it is while in this body
The mind can remember
It is a spirit
And came here
With a purpose
Then are we free
From death
And live
To do the will of God
