All Others

ALL OTHERS

ALL religious reformers came to live; Christ came to die.

ALL others leave monuments and memorials; no one can find His birthplace, grave, nor one possession. 

ALL others write diaries and memoirs; He wrote on the sand. 

ALL others choose their followers from the rich, powerful, and influential; He chose the poor and needy. 

ALL others praise human righteousness; He condemned it. 

ALL others seek those who can help them; He sought those He could help. 

ALL others promise success and happiness to their followers; He promised tribulation and suffering. 

ALL others held their disciples with fear and force; He invited His to leave Him if they would. 

ALL others have palaces, mansions, and headquarters; He had no place to lay His head. 

ALL reward the most talented with recognition, titles, and honor; He said, “The least should be the greatest.” 

ALL others say, “Follow me: I will show you the way;” He said, “Come to Me, I Am The Way.” 

ALL others stay dead; He arose; and all of His claims, works, and promises are true because God raised Him from the dead.
