The sonnet explores the transformation of a soul once lost in doubt, redeemed through being born again. Through prayer and scripture, the Holy Spirit ignites a divine understanding in the heart, revealing the Bible as the ultimate truth. This renewal reshapes the intellect, aligning it with God’s inerrant Word, which surpasses all human wisdom. Earthly knowledge falters, while scripture—living, flawless, and eternally authoritative—reigns supreme in the believer’s redeemed heart and mind, crowned forever by divine grace.

When once the soul in shadowed doubt did roam,
Through being born again the spirit flows,
A flame ignites where prayer and scripture grow,
And finds in sacred text its truest home.

The mind, transformed, now gleams with holy light,
Each verse unfolds, a truth to claim,
No earthly thought can rival or defame,
For God’s own word asserts its boundless might.

The intellect, renewed by grace divine,
Through Spirit’s breath discerns the Bible’s call,
All human pride must yield to this design,
In Christ, the heart and reason both enthrall.

Man’s wisdom breaks, a frail and fleeting plea,
Inerrant, God’s Word lives—crowned eternally.
