New Testament

Acts Chapter 6

   

In those days, with the disciples multiplying
The Grecians murmured against the Hebrews, saying
Their widows were being neglected. At a meeting then,
The twelve apostles said "choose sev'n Spirit-filled men
Honest, full of wisdom, on this matter contracted,
So from God's Word and praying we're not distracted."
Stephen, a Holy Ghost faith-filled man, was chosen,
Also Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon,
Parmenas, and Nicholas. Great wonders were done
By Stephen, with wise words - none could resist this one.
Foes brought false witnesses, and put him on trial,
Where all saw his face shine like that of an angel!
