Certainty of Testimony
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
He who came by water and blood,
The Holy Spirit testifies;
Just like Noah endured the flood,
The triune God will not tell lies.
For the Spirit has told the truth,
As all three will always agree;
That you knew about since your youth,
With faith in what you do not see.
There are three that do bear witness,
That these three correspond as one;
Blesses with spiritual fitness,
The Father, Spirit, and the Son.
Whoever believes in the Son,
In being as the Son of God;
Believes what Jesus Christ had done,
Was crucified not as a fraud.
Unbelief makes God a liar,
Of His Son born of the Spirit;
Will die in the Lake of Fire,
Not be blest for to inherit.
For God gave us eternal life,
Eternal life is in His Son;
Free from all of the earthly strife,
Given salvation that was won.
