I
Today is the day, have you seen?
It's something for God
to come among man.
He's come to save man, defeat Satan
—the reason for His incarnation.
If not for this,
He wouldn't work by Himself.
God has taken on flesh
to battle Satan and shepherd mankind,
whose flesh is corrupted
and whom God wants to save.
God comes twice in the flesh
to defeat Satan and save mankind.
Only God can battle Satan
in Spirit or in flesh.
II
The angels can't fight,
they have no power.
And corrupt man,
he stands no chance.
So God puts on flesh to be man's life,
to work on them and save them all,
with His inherent identity,
and the work He must do.
God has taken on flesh
to battle Satan and shepherd mankind,
whose flesh is corrupted
and whom God wants to save.
God comes twice in the flesh
to defeat Satan and save mankind.
Only God can battle Satan
in Spirit or in flesh.
III
The battle would go on, forever and ever,
if God doesn't become flesh.
For with the Spirit of God
or mankind alone,
there would be no way.
God becomes flesh to battle Satan.
Only then can man find salvation.
Only then will Satan be defeated.
Only then will its plans be tamed.
If man were to take on this battle,
he would only flee in disarray.
Mankind's corrupt disposition
would be unable to change.
Man can't save man from the cross,
nor conquer a rebellious mankind.
What man can do is work like he has,
but this cannot defeat Satan.
VI
Man must obey and follow.
They cannot bring a new era,
nor can they battle Satan.
Satan is defeated when man pleases God.
For each new battle, in every new age,
God Himself does the work
to lead the age and open a new way,
bringing man into a better realm.
God has taken on flesh
to battle Satan and shepherd mankind,
whose flesh is corrupted
and whom God wants to save.
God comes twice in the flesh
to defeat Satan and save mankind.
Only God can battle Satan
in Spirit or in flesh.
Only God can battle Satan
in Spirit or in flesh.
