Read these Scripture passages: II Corinthians 5:19 and 21; Galatians 3:13; Philippians 2:5-8 as a background for "By This We Know Love." Answer the question. What is the theme of the poem?

This is the poem-
That a man should die is sad,
Or good, or bad, or just, or cruel.
We judge these things by who he was,
And what he did, and how he died,
And who weeps by his side.

But that God should die!
By this we know love!

Grasping not at what was His—
All that heaven was—and is,
Of every glory, honor, praise,
Christ stripped Himself.

God put on man!
By this we know love!

And not alone to share our lot—be born
To play, work, laugh and groan,
And then, in three score years and ten
To die—not thus He came—
Not thus He died.

And no man took His life;
Very God of very God, He laid it down.

See Him, the Lord of Life,
The all atoning death embrace!
My place—there where I belong,
God's wrath on God was hurled,
And I go free!

That a man should die is sad,
Or good or bad, or just or cruel—
Depending on who he was
And what he did and how he died—
And who weeps by his side.

But that God should die!
By this I know love.

—Elizabeth Loeks Bouman

That God died for us and that no one else die but him for you and and man that is innocent should not die

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

sing because that is what they are doing in the sentence

explanation:

the simple predicate is the main verb in the predicate that tells what the subject does. example: my father fixed the dryer. read each sentence. draw a line under the complete predicate.
