Signs that Jesus is the Son of God

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]
He healed the sick and raised the dead,
gave sight, and multiplied the bread.
He turned the water into wine –
creating by His power divine.
He rose from death – his friends then went
to preach the news as they’d been sent,
though this might bring them persecution:
they had to tell of resurrection.
More signs were given as they taught.
Miracles showed the people ought
to wake up, know the mighty God
was calling all to Christ, His Word.
A rich man pleaded after death,
someone be sent to those on earth.
He’s told that as they scripture scorn,
they’ll heed not though one rise to warn.
The signs should make us realise
that Christ is God with words to prize
to show us how to find his grace,
have life eternal, God’s embrace.

Verse 4 refers to Luke 16:18-31

convincing
Yes beautiful poem, quite convincing! Didn't like the verse on hell though, not such a pleasant thing to contemplate on. Unnecessary if you ask me.
One could also think on when Jesus was baptised by John, the white dove fom heaven. And the great voice.
Days starting to get shorter now. We had some loadshedding the weekend, our first electricity cuts in almost a year.
Have a good week & Nolan
