26-Feb-12: 1 Peter 3:18-22
18 For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, in order to bring you to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit, 19 in which also he went and made a proclamation to the spirits in prison, 20 who in former times did not obey, when God waited patiently in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water. 21 And baptism, which this prefigured, now saves you—not as a removal of dirt from the body, but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22 who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers made subject to him.
“……..and you said I had to take a bath to see the angels!”
Now galumped and gallalopped ye olde Cross-Eyed Sheepdog,
“Let me see, let me stare, let me blare out for all yon stragglers
“Whatsumever this New Light Be,whatsumever for this leapdog,
“Let me turn and twist and snort all bout new glories for scragglers.”
So all critters and folksies did mash and mush aside
So all friends did make path for clumsley bumsley Crosseye
So all friends soon fell to ground as new choir brief choir brief tide
Did sweep to sing one sweet note of hope and peace just for doggly sigh!
