John 5:19-27 VERILY, VERILY. In the past from God’s grace to creation There was in every way, complete cooperation The Father and Son, in every situation Acted as one in bringing salvation.
The love that was in one was equally in the other The power the Son had was also in the Father All judgment is committed to the Son – not another Both the Father and Son are equal in honor.
Today the words of the Godhead are plainly revealed In the Word of God what previously was concealed Now is expressed as divine truth is openly unveiled As the eternal life He gives is to us detailed.
“Verily, verily” are personal words I can take As I look into the past learning how He did make All things and then, gave eternal life for my sake Now – and in future judgment, Father and Son cooperate.
“What a lesson there is to learn Father God, from Thy Word as I learn of Two who are in every way equal, and yet in every way compliment each other in the work they join to do. May I never try to claim some higher role that what has been given me by Thee. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
