The Wonderful Exchange
The wonderful truth of the gospel is the truth of the substitution. Christ stood in our place on the cross so that believers could stand in His place in the favor of God. This is the only hope for sinners.

Adieu
This is a poem about the attitude with which we approach life. As the Bible instructs us, we should not lay up our treasures on earth, but should strive to lay up treasures in heaven. As Christians we should live as pilgrims in this world.

God Raised Him Up
The Resurrection of Christ not only proves that Jesus is who He said that He is, but it also reminds us of the power of God in bringing life out of death. In addition, the resurrection is the proof that Christ's atonement was sufficient to put away sin.

No Condemnation
One of the great truths that I heard as a new believer was about the tenses of salvation. We have been saved from the punishment of sin, we are being saved from the power of sin, we shall be saved from the presence of sin. That is the theme of this poem.

The Answer is the Empty Tomb
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is a fundamental truth of the Christian faith. The truth and the historicity of the resurrection of Christ provides a firm foundation for the church to stand upon as we proclaim the truth about God and His love.
