Title: Bible Riddle "Who Am I" ?
Post by: VA_Birdhunter on February 15, 2014, 04:14:12 PM
Adam, God made out of dust,
    But thought it best to make me first,
So I was made before now,
    To answer God's most holy plan,
A living being I became,
    And Adam gave to me my name,
I from his presence then withdrew,
    And more of Adam I never knew.
I did my Maker's law obey,
    Nor never went from it astray,
Thousands of miles I go in fear,
    But seldom on earth appear,
For purpose wise which God did see,
    He put a living soul in me,
A soul from me God did claim,
    And took from me the soul had fled,
I was the same as when first made,
    And without hands or feet or soul,
I travel on from pole to pole,
    I labor hard by day, by night,
To fallen man I give great light,
    Thousands of people, young and old,
Will by my death great light behold,
    No right or wrong can I conceive,
The Scripture I cannot believe
    Although my name therein is found,
They are to me an empty sound,
    No fear of death doth trouble me,
Real happiness I'll never see,
    To Heaven I shall never go, or to Hell below.

"The answer is ONE word!"


My mom & dad gave me this a few days back while they were in visiting....if you have read this before and know the answer please hold off on answering it. 

God Bless

Food for  thought.

Line 5 says I became a living being....line 23 says when I die I will provide great light.

We also see mention of having a soul
