The Christian’s Alphabet



~ Words From The Past ~

The following description of what Christian’s possess in Christ Jesus was written by Louis Paul Lehman (in his book Tears of the Bible, 1958). 

The Christian is taken from…
Anguish to Anthem!
Bitterness to Brightness!
Crying to Clapping!
Disgrace to Distinction!
Excruciation to Ecstasy!

Furnace to Festival!
Grief to Gladness!
Humility to Hallelujah!
Illness to Immortality!
Jangle to Jubilee!
Kneeling to Kingship!

Laughingstock to Luminary!
Misery to Music!
Nobody to Nobility!
Ostracism to Ownership!
Poverty to Plenty!
Quarrel to Quiet!

Requiem to Rhapsodies!
Sighing to Shouting!
Tears to Triumph!
Unknown to Unveiling!
Vision to Vindication!
Weariness to “Welcome Home!”
