Welcome to JimSwanson.com - a site dedicated to sharing insights from my personal Bible studies and quotes I like.
The site sections are accessible through the links above. “About” shares more on who I am and my background. “Thoughts” is the main section this site was designed for and can be accessed through the excerpts at right or by using the index in the far right column. The “Stories” page links to another site containing a series of stories I wrote for our local paper. “Music” contains information and samples of songs I have written as memory aids to learning Bible verses.
Contact me if you'd like to leave some feedback or submit a question you would like me to address sometime.

Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three,
One died in Babylon and one on Calvary.
One gained all for self, and one himself he gave.
One conquered every throne, the other every grave.
When died the Greek, forever fell his throne of swords,
But Jesus died to live forever Lord of lords.
Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three.
The Greek made all men slaves, the Jew made all men free.
One built a throne on blood, the other built on love.
The one was born of earth, the other from above.
One won all this earth to lose all earth and Heaven.
The other gave up all that all to him be given.
The Greek forever died, the Jew forever lives.
He loses all who gets and wins all things who gives.
