John 3:16-17 says it all. This is the crux of the Christian Belief System. The key word is "Belief." Your Acrostic poem is well written. Good luck in your contest.

You can't hide from me. I recognised this as you immediately; theme, poetic style, and boldly taking the message to the front page as usual. (I hope I'm right.)
Anyways, lovely poem. I hate acrostics but you make this one sound like an actual poem with great rhythm, word choice and imagery.
The message speaks for itself and you've linked the historical and spiritual Jesus perfectly to the transforming experience of your own life very naturally and with authentic 'passion'. Don't know why, but I loved this line best: Vast my debt, in Christ I hide
It will be a very good poem that beats this in the vote.

Your vote is appreciated Mark, you are perceptive, I can't even "hide myself" in anonymity, thanks, great review, mate,
Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
This certainly is a deeply spiritual Easter acrostic poem.
Calvary is the focus point for the supreme sacrifice Jesus made to save us when He died on the cross.
The presentation is devout and the rhyming adds a extra depth to the impact of the words.
The scripture quote is perfect for this theme.
Good luck.
:-) Shirley

Wow!! I like the flow of this poem. The cross of Calvary stole away all my sins that glorious day. A well written acrostic. All the best in the contest and happy Easter.

In my opinion, an inspired work in well constructed and articulate rhyme and rhythm - my only suggestion in this perfect rendering would be to change the "me" to "I" in the last line, for grammatical correctness...

Comment from Dean Kuch
How could any believer or follower of Christ dispute anything this wonderfully written, powerful poetic proclamation of faith has to say?
I didn't realize this was an acrostic until I looked at the contest details below the posting, and that's a good thing.
Short, sweet and on point, this is an outstanding entry in the Easter Theme Acrostic contest.
Good luck, and Amen! ~Dean
