Likeness

After two sons, another man like Able, a spiritual man:

 

Genesis 5:3 New King James Version (NKJV)

And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

 

Isaiah 41:17 New King James Version (NKJV)

17 “The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, their tongues fail for thirst.
I, the Lord, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.

 

Likeness

 

“God in Three Persons, Blessed Trinity”

 

Jesus came down from Heaven and placed His likeness in me

on earth to live in flesh ... as I to appear like the least in me.

From “Glory in the Highest” ... He then came down to be

average and common ... in this sea of humanity.

 

Exposed to all depravity ... from religiousness to fake

lovers of idols and whatever sin will make.

Hunger, poverty, and pain ... results of man’s greed.

Lots for few little for most ... and on that, they’ll ever feed.
