Yet [*/+/^] : 27.225 MHz, Some Final Measures; *And Became As Dead Men*

[after Matthew 28:4]


So adamant were the guards in their disbelief,

they became as dead men, rather

than worshipfully greet the Triumphant Morning Star

that had risen from the borrowed tomb ahead of the sun:

Jesus Christ, maker of stars, maker of Salvation

who descended to death to trample and shatter

the multitude of deaths by the Singularity of His Death.  To all

who believe upon Him, he bestows the gift of eternal life. 

And those who disbelieve shall know their souls are become as dead men.
