The Bible is the word of God;

Most Christians won't dispute it.

And yet they meekly acquiesce

When someone dares dilute it.

They'll change some here, delete some there----

'Til it's simply not the same.

And then they sign this counterfeit

With God's pure and holy name.

He will not lend His name to er'r,

Nor let you use His signet.

You put His name on what you wrote,

He tends to get indignant!

The Bible says His word is pure----

Then change must needs "impure it"!

How great the impudence of man!!

How can great God endure it?

Does "God" mean "God"? And it does,

What are the implications?

Does "God" not mean complete and true?

With never limitations?

Then how can anyone presume

To change the words He's spoken?

Perfection cannot be improved----

Your efforts must be broken!

Man cannot live by "every word"

If some words are excluded.

If you think there's no consequence,

My friend, you've been deluded

You cannot fool the word of God

It's such a clear discerner.

It sees the motives of your heart----

So read---- and be the learner.

The counterfeits can't see your heart;

They don't know what you're thinking.

You search them with all diligence,

And still don't have an inkling.

Please take the word of God as truth----

Change only leads to shame.

Don't fear to trust what God has said,

He honors above His name.

God sent His prophets through the years

To proclaim the things they'd heard.

He sent them with instructions sealed:

Speak!----Diminish not a word!!!
